Apparently this was an early concept for SG Zoe.

I think that it makes her look far more mischievous, but not insane enough. Overall it's an entirely different feel than what we got, a broken jester/carnie look.
I definitely think this would've radiated with Zoe players more and given them a larger selling pool though. They seem to have gone more their own direction than catering to fans in general with third gen.

It's so cool to see a different possibility.

(also beret ftfw)

I think it's a safe guess that this would have sold at least as well if not better, but it's basically a guarantee that it would have been slammed by boards for being "generic".

idk I like this but the sg skin we have now looks normal Zoe with a dark twist which is what I think they were going for. I like the beret tho maybe on a different Zoe skin later on?

Her clothing style is actually what I would really enjoy if they would finally create a Star Guardian Caitlyn. Especially the beret, Caitlyn needs a beret for such a skin!

Not a zoe main. But i like that one more. I understand why they didn't go through with it because zoe symbolized meangless chaos, so her outfit was really mismatched and wierd.

Looks absolutely nothing like Zoe in any capacity, and if you didn't say this was her and I didn't know any better, I'd think it was from a different game all together. It looks more like a fan concept than anything that would even remotely be considered official concept art due to the extreme differences in the art style and design when compared to Zoe.

The current one is far superior, as it, you know, actually looks like Zoe, is more creative in general, and better fits the theme and idea they were going for.

What we got looks so much better than this...

Only problem is this isn't really Zoe lol

While i agree this likely would have been superior, it likely would have bumped her up a tier for the remodel and would have needed more work as a result, and would mean 3 of the skins would have been 1820. While i wouldnt mind that, im sure others would have.

Looks too much like Jevil from Deltarune.

Good thing they didn't go with this unoriginal variant.

Beret is nice but this is so much more boring than what we got imo. Too much cute girl, and like you said not insane enough.

Looks way better than what we got. Not a fan of the Dark stuff, but this would have been a lot better. I personally loathe how nuts she looks in the skin we got. This line was PERFECT for Zoe, and it honestly felt like a slap in the face to make her a Dark SG when a regular SG was SO perfect for a character like Zoe.........but then they went and made her look bat shit crazy. It's sad, all of it is just sad, can't even get hyped about SG's anymore because they're going down this dark road now. Should have made this a separate line, because now when we hear "Star Guardians" skins are coming we have to fear getting dark versions -_-

Looks nothing like zoe and just some bland anime side character. Zoe's SG look is more of a fantasy villain and way better while still being clearly Zoe.
