Having a friend that regularly adds cool rainbow colors to stuff on "Paint" i know that special effects don't take long to add. Motion Capture animation is so easy to do for realistic animations and everything. Hey, my friend even does some cool "Claymation" stuff too. He uses neon pipe cleaners and a black light to make them look like light sabre battles.

Can't wait to see what else SE comes out with. I never really had a problem with the visual effects of the abilities. When I first started playing I was like, hmmmm, that's what a flame ball really looks like, cool. Wasn't expecting every Melee WS to include a flip, spin, backflip, spinning weapon super fast or charging, so I was pretty happy with those too.
