The Super Yellow Lum rank looks really good, did you find a render somewhere or is it an edit?
actually no, i took the butchered files from the pc version of rayman 2 and made a "crude collage"
i also found this inside the files and i think it's a shame to not use this design

The Battle Lums look more like Tings indeed, but the Race Lums are identical to Rayman 2's Lums but with eyes. Modulo style, they're basically the same as the UbiArt ones!
That’s right, I completely forgot about those! Which makes me wonder, do we even know how many there are?

Also, I can't believe we included Tily but forgot about Dark Globox, I guess I can make a special rank for him and keep it in the archive until the rank list is updated again.
Dammit, Dark Globox didn't cross my mind at all, since he's only in console versions of Arena!

What if we kick out the General, move the Spyglass next to Murfy and then have Globox versus Dark Globox?
With the help of Raymap, here are some alternative versions of the purple, red and yellow Lums:

- LumsViolet.png (14.28 KiB) Viewed 2710 times

- LumsRouge.png (13.66 KiB) Viewed 2710 times

- LumsJaune.png (11.08 KiB) Viewed 2710 times
Screenshots of the blue and green ones come out blank unfortunately – I can probably work around it with a bit of hacking!

Oh my God!

I didn't actually think it was creepy, but then you posted that!

Based on that, I think we should probably use Polokus' Origins appearance instead.
I ended up using RCP to extract textures to make the blue and green Lum ranks:

- LumsBleu.png (12.51 KiB) Viewed 2698 times

- LumsVert.png (12.55 KiB) Viewed 2698 times
The saturation isn't as nice as it is with the ones from Raymap, but it's probably the best we can do…
Here's how the list might look now. There are still some ranks that need corner fixing, which I haven't included yet. I'm also not sure whether we should use my Lum ranks or Geigergast's – any thoughts?
EDIT: I also didn't include the Tentacle Claw one, since I think it might be better to use
this killable version in view of its position. Not sure if we have any suitable renders though…
EDIT2: Sorry, missed a few!

I was thinking it would be better for the Rayman Legends one to be one that faces left to match the other Rayman ones, but there are a couple here facing right that seem to be fine, and the rank is only on the right on the desktop version.

I don't know, it feels kind of wrong to kick out the General. We could pair him with Ed, but I think it would be a stretch to consider him part of the Rayman universe (besides the General and Ed are on the same side in Tonic Trouble). I wonder what other people think about this.
About the red, yellow, green and blue lum ranks, I prefer the ones that Plum posted. I'm not sure about the purple lum rank (but I guess it would be impossible to get a better image).
Also I wanted to say that I prefer Polokus' R2 design, but since the last ranks include UbiArt designs, I think the current image should stay.

I love it, this image has so much potential. I just don't know where to start, but a signature is probably a good idea.
As regards the ranklist, amazing progress here! Just a remark, there's a dark creature image where the Ugly should be.

Here is the Teensy Hermit rank that was missing, and a Dark Globox rank in case Plum and others decide to use it.

That would only be the second time I accidentally created a signature for you.

Perhaps we could use something like this for a special Halloween rank, or something of that taste.
Now I am curious to see someone make an actual creepypasta around this silly idea.

Polokus was the true original nightmare all along… Can’t wait for the official Rayman crossover with Freddy Krueger!

I've thought about it, and I guess leaving out Dark Globox because he was in Arena is similar to leaving out Grolem 13 because he was in Revolution, which we all agreed early on. I'm still not super-happy about it, but I think it's too delicate at this point to start messing with it again!

Thank you! I like the purple one myself, but then maybe that's just my taste in colours.

Mea culpa. Copy-pasting into a spreadsheet to generate the ranklist in post format, then from the spreadsheet back to the browser, introduces plenty of room for error!

I've given away so many of mine too. Thanks to that, I've priced myself out of the Nymphs for another decade with this new ranklist. Ah well, it's for the greater good!

Remember, the stories about Rayman's hair and Globox's colour aren't actually part of the Origins game story:

Story, or lack of story?

The simplicity adds to its charm really.
Aaaanyway, I took the liberty of fixing the corners on the four ranks that still needed fixing:

- NueeMalefique.png (23.7 KiB) Viewed 2530 times

- DragonMedieval.png (26.48 KiB) Viewed 2530 times

- RaymanLegends.png (21.52 KiB) Viewed 2530 times

- RayNoirEtBlanc.png (23.34 KiB) Viewed 2530 times
EDIT: Just realized the Super Yellow Lum also needed fixing:

- SuperLumsJaune.png (16.2 KiB) Viewed 2520 times
And with that, the new ranklist is complete!

Yeah, I agree, it is better to not mess with the rank list at this point. The good thing is that Dark Globox can be kept in the Special rank archive (I assume). Btw, I wonder if an image of the Tentacle claw (the light-blue killable variable) could be extracted.
Also, another version of the Polokus rank (which one do you think is better?).

Yay it's finally finished! These all look awesome!!

It's too bad since I will never really get to use any of them... I'm just gonna keep donating my Tings no matter how often and no matter how annoying it is just so I can keep my normal Electoon rank!!
Luckily that isn't a problem for now though, hehe...
Anyways, great work!! Excited to see it implemented

I'm torn, because I think this second version looks better overall and focuses more on the character, but the other somehow just looks more representative of Polokus as a powerful and divine being, which fits its spot in the ranklist better. Hmmm...
