If Lissa loses, it won't be because of Mist, it will be because of the outlandish multiplier.

After having to watch in disgust at Camilla and Tharja winning, I'll take anything at this point.

Anything to get some dang entertainment out of these stupid Gauntlets.

Wait, so you weren't disgusted by Lucina?

I didn't read your post at all, but I just want to tell you that Minerva in your signature looks nothing like the actual Minerva in the games

Dunno what you're talking about, I've played every game she's in and she looks fine.

It's based more on her FE3 design than her recent ones, so perhaps that's what's confusing you?

Welp. the gauntlet is almost over. I think we lost Team Elise. We had a good run I guess...now who should I join?

Don't lose faith just yet, we still have one hour. All we need to do is make sure we don't overshoot and give Sakura the 7.5x bonus

Probably. I never played FE3. I was comparing it to the FE12 art

I'm on a team that benefited from the multiplier, and I think it's a bad mechanic.

I miss the old gauntlet

Straight from go gauntlet

Chop up the soul gauntlet

Set on its goals gauntlet

I hate the new gauntlet

The bad mood gauntlet

The always rude gauntlet

Spaz in the news gauntlet

I miss the sweet gauntlet

Chop up the beats gauntlet

I gotta say, at that time I'd like to.... play gauntlet?

See I invented gauntlet

It wasn't ANY gauntlets

And now I look and look around there's so many gauntlets!

I used love gauntlets, I used to love gauntlets

I was even on team Leo I thought I was gauntlets

What if IS made a song about gauntlets

Called "I miss the old gauntlets"?

Man, that'd be SO IS!

That's all it was, IS

We still love gauntlets

And I love you like IS loves gauntlets!

Indeed, they should just do a better job matching up characters with equal popularity. And get rid of the victory bonus.

Good luck finding eight characters that share a theme, come from different titles, and are actually close to each other in popularity every month.

I prefer our zany Blue Shell rules to the inevitable nature of every previous gauntlet. Even Chrom vs. Ephraim wasn't unpredictable like this.

Not a perfect match, but still.

Who could be disgusted by Lucina? She's awesome.

Presumably more for her being the first of the "obvious winner who curbstomped everyone else in the gauntlet" characters.

I get people didn't like seeing Lucina and Camilla absolutely blow out the first gauntlets, but I'd rather it stay an honest popularity contest than an artificial competition.

The gauntlet could use changes, but I don't think the multipliers was a very good answer.

There is absolutely no need for an entire game mode devoted to being a popularity contest.

Y'all are thinking about this the wrong way. The Gauntlet is a mode where the Heroes playerbase splits into eight teams to compete. Those teams each have a character as their face, because that's neat and it offers a way to get bonuses, but those characters aren't the point of the Gauntlet. It's about the teams and the players competing in them. To make that play well, it can't just be a popularity contest where the larger team wins. They can already hold popularity contests in a much simpler way, just by posting polls.

The first gauntlet would've been pretty fine if Lucina was replaced by Lissa.

I concur. I feel more like a stockbroker than a fan caring about a character. The system is trash and I prefer the tedious Tempest Torture (fite me)

I liked Tempest the first 20 times I ran it.

I honestly think this would have been closer than past Gauntlets even without the multipliers.  The highest Poll character wasn't even in the top 10 this time.

I actually like Lucina. She's not of my favorites, but I do like her character and personality.

But that first Voting Gauntlet was like a wolf among sheep. They didn't put in any character that could at least pose a challenge to Lucina. Kind of boring in that regard.

I'm rooting for you Team Mist!

Do it for Tellius! Time to take down an Awakening character!

I know I am just being salty, but is it really taking Lissa down when she needed these multipliers to even being close to as popular as Lissa.

If you're annoyed about the multipliers, consider joining teams that will get more of them.

Um hello? Doesn't that ruin the point of supporting your favorite?  That clearly doesn't even change anything.  Sure I have sided with underdogs before and wanted them to win but I sure as heck would rather lose and it be fair than this last minute bull.  If they wanted 8 teams to fight like that then they would call it something else. The description literally calls it a popularity contest.

Fair enough.

Welp, we overshot it. Our only hope is that we overshot it by so much that they can't make it up.

Well, Lissa really overshot, but the difference is like 800million, so even with the multiplier, that might not be overcome.

Don't worry. Just remember that in the end, Lissa is in Warriors, Mist is not.
