ZeManaphy Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 43 minutes ago, bun said: I hope they only allow one vote per character this time, would make it more of a proper popularity contest imo. Otherwise those giving multiple votes to the same character have a much bigger impact on the results compared to those that spread their votes out, which feels kind of unfair.  They called them "special heroes" the first time too so I don't think you need to read too much into the terminology they're using. The problem with that is that there are way too many heroes to choose from. It would cause too many polarized chararacters because you can only choose one between favorites, with some characters possibly receiving 0 simply being inferior to other favorite characters.

Expect him to be in the top 10. FEH worked MIRACLES for him. I'm holding out for him being the GHB when a Thracia banner is released. The best candidate has already ruined many a player's win streak, and Kempf seems like he's at least in the pool for next best choice along with like Saias, Galzus, and Rayderick. Still, might throw like him or Areone a vote. How did I forget though, Ares! It'd be interesting to see what pimped out effect they give Mysteltainn and if Eldigan would get access to it.

I know that not many people like her character arc, but what's the opinion of her in Japan? I can see why they like Sigurd.

Her clone status in FE Warriors didn’t do her any favors. Delthea and Luthier, however, are pretty popular. Tobin could also get meme’d so he can get a better alt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any characters whose popularity has been polarized in Japan since their arrival in Heroes?

bun Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 18 minutes ago, Lushen said: I didn't vote in the initial CYL but can't you vote for unlimited heroes in CYL? That would mean some people might vote for Ephraim even if Ephraim isn't their favorite which mirrors the CYL with the 'backup' voters. Though people may intentionally not vote for Ephraim if they want someone else to win b/c Ephraim is competition. Kinda like why I'm not voting for Chrom even though I think he's pretty neat. Nope, you had 13 votes. (Looks like 7 this time.) Could be all for the same character, or all for different characters, but only 13 total. Meaning a lot of people might like him, but maybe not enough to make their top 13. 9 minutes ago, ZeManaphy said: The problem with that is that there are way too many heroes to choose from.

No, I'm saying the opposite; I hope everyone gets 7 votes, but they have to be for different characters. That way people won't just vote-bomb their top favorite, like the first time. (Or am I misunderstanding what you mean?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forgotten Hero Anri Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 1: Berkut! Give him Kriemhild with Distant Counter! And give him a unique distant attack animation where Rinea attacks in his place! That's my dream... My prince will one day be viable... 2: Alm. I love Alm too much, and I can't help but feel he got the short end of the stick here. 3: Rath, I know what you're thinking, ANOTHER Bow on a horse? But Rath is too interesting of a character imo 4: Medeus, pretty self explanatory. First Major Villain in the franchise deserves to be in the game. And it'd be cool if he got his on unique Legendary Dragon Stone. And he could probably pass as an Armored Dragon unit too. Unsure of my other choices, only time will tell...

Lushen Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I can only predict the male b/c my thotmeter is in the shop. 1. Hector 2. Chrom vs Ephraim Tossup Reinhardt COULD get involved but I doubt it. Hector is going to blow everyone out of the water but Chrom and Ephraim both have a shot. I personally think the Ike voters will go more into Ephraim than they will into Chrom b/c I would imagine FE9/FE10 lovers have more likely played the GBA games than the 3DS games. But I'm really not sure. The Roy voters will disperse all over b/c lets be honest the only reason he won is because of smash.

Ephraim's popularity might have been skyrocketed with Weapon Refinement. Then again, W!Chrom is one of the best green units in the game. Hector's spot might be secured with double QR/wary fighter Never liked Roy. Despite having B!Roy, I prefer using Eliwood, whose one of the best lords character judging by personality. His performance in Blazing Sword is shit though. Edited January 19, 2018 by silveraura25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 6 hours ago, omegaxis1 said: Levin Sword is iconic for Robin, being his weapon in Smash Bros and Warriors. He deserves his weapon!!!! Not a big fan of it. Robin was mixed in Awakening. But Smash RUINED it because sword lordism plagued the rest of the FE Smash cast. Ignore the capitalization there, just a little annoyed about the Levin Sword, since it forgets that Robin was originally mixed, even if the movie clips emphasized magic (which I think it did partly out of it being easier to make it look good in first person, which is important because of Robin's face malleability). And I shall admit I pretty much ignored the Bronze Sword and sent Robin on a Magic binge throughout Awakening, since tomes rule and swords drool more than anything else but bows.  2 hours ago, Xenomata said: My top priority is to put some clothes on Nowi this year.

Lord-Zero Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 @Ice DragonWe’ll have to wait and see. I’m still waiting on a refinement for Zephiel’s Eckesachs that’s more true to its effect in FE6. @silveraura25 Reinhardt certainly has gotten more popular in Japan. As for other recent characters like Camilla, if the New Year’s banner is any indication, they’re pretty tired of Fates/Awakening seasonals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lyn was in I wouldn't throw her any votes, I love Lyn but I want Micaiah to get a special version too. Although I assume they're going to remove the winners from the 1st round.
