Some of them need it. Or have been needing them for some time. That grammar feels bad.

And here we go, the revealed artwork for the revamped Strikers:
Suddenly I feel that a Shark summon ala Storm would be badass and even better if each CK got their own unique summon in the form of an animal that best represents their attacking style.

Despite absolutely hating the idea of lvl200 CKs, I do love the poster art for TB.

It could be just a random Thunder Breaker, you know?

I'll be pissed if they decide to make TBs more "Transformation based" and leave Buccs as is.

Aran is an individual, vital to the storyline, which is why people comment comment on Nexon's lack of ability to decide who the hell Aran is.
Strikers, and the other Cygnus Knights, are a group of people. Like Adventurers.

This.
I got alot of questions after watching this video.
1. Why Mihile rush to dead Shinshoo, does it mean anything?
2. Do Cygnus' three drops of tear revive Shinshoo?
3. Who is the one that appears about Shinshoo after it is being revived? Empress transforming? lol

2nd question, no one know, but wait and see?
3rd, There's someone else other than Mikhail standing there?

3. Who is the one that appears about Shinshoo after it is being revived? Empress transforming? lol 1. I'm guessing that Mihile and the others only just found Shinshoo dead, or were unable to get involved in the battle that killed her, he's running towards her to check if she's dead.
2 and 3. Cygnus overreacts to seeing Shinshoo hurt and possibly dead, she starts crying and the overflow of emotions releases her latent powers. How much emotion have we ever seen Cygnus show? and now with the World Tree residing in Shinshoo's gem, and she gains her power from Shinshoo, it's very likely that she gained more power than usual. The power causes her to transform magical girl style.
One thing i'm wondering about though is her facial expression. She doesn't look like an innocent little girl anymore, she looks rather tense and... dark. Is the next part of the story Cygnus using her newfound powers to get revenge on Damien and she powers up her army to allow her to do so? If so, awesome.

That would be awesome and it's very likely that the Cygnus Knights revamp only happened now because there's more motivation to fight. In particular, this reminds me of that teaser with the more adult-looking Cygnus a while back that mentioned her saying that she has to use the power but that could be a reference only to reviving Shinsoo.
Still, given the circumstances I doubt that that's all. I would also like to see if the Cygnus Knights take a somewhat darker bend due to what Damien did to Shinsoo.

In the video it looks like she is quite literally gearing for war.
She's been overseeing the events of the alliance for a while now, and hasn't been THAT much use, outside of finding the World Tree or liberating Azwan.
Ereve has been attacked before, but her Knights have always managed to fend it off, and then comes someone who is too powerful for them to fight, who kills someone dear to her. It seems clear that her first thoughts would be "We need to get stronger, I need to get stronger"
And then she goes and makes a contract with Kyuubey and transforms all Magical Girl style. "your wish has surpassed entropy"

Something that comes to mind too is that she's always been very passive, far more than would be acceptable from a nigh uncontested ruler. I've attributed this less to incompetence and more to lack of power though, as the Cygnus Knights' low max level is actually reflective of how strong she really is at that point and you have proof of this from Future Ereve and this coming revamp. Perhaps it could be said that she's had enough of having people rescue her all the time and she's ready to strike back, which would make for an amazing storyline if it involves all of the main players (Resistance, Lilin, heroes like Phantom/Mercedes all come to mind as they have more ties to Cygnus than most of the others).

The artwork is cool, I'm glad they are sticking with the shark theme. Hopefully they will have more shark based attacks. Maybe you'll summon a shark and it will open it's mouth and shout out a huge ass laser or Shooting sharks from your fist at the speed of hurricane!
But seriously I would be happy with a punching animation combined with a a sharks head or jaws clamping down on the target.

Why are people getting confused with Cygnus Knights and The Job Instructors? That artwork is just of a generic Striker/Thunder Breaker it isn't Hawkeye.
