Corrobin Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 All we need is Medeus for my Archanean Villain Team of Fallen Hardin, Michalis, Gharnef and Medeus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diovani Bressan Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 This GHB made me a little sad, because we could had a Shadow Dragon banner instead of the loli & mad king banner... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly this is not as implausible as it might look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 A welcome addition. Sweet art, too, and his weapon effect is interesting. Continued lack of Hrid is strange, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icelerate Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Does this mean the next new heroes banner will be Archanae? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlight Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Just now, Icelerate said: Does this mean the next new heroes banner will be Archanae? Dunno. Could be that Loki made friends with Gharnef and recruited him to help her with her plans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentinel07 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Artwork is excellent, weapon has an interesting gimmick, and his skills are good. He's got a spot on my team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bottlegnomes Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Well this is the best Heroes related news I've received in a while. I know it's really silly, but I would've been cool with them dropping his res a bit to give him especially good speed, like 36/21 since he was pretty speedy in life. Also, I know Imhulu's effect is objectively more useful than a lot of stuff they could have done, but I still can't help being a little disappointed. Four turns is a while to stall, even if it is doable, and a part of me wishes he'd gotten something like Julius to amp up his own personal combat. But hey, at least Linde can kick the crap out of him and ignore Imhulu's effect, just like in the actual games. Now just Linde alt with Starlight. Despite my mild disappointment, and still being a bit more partial to in-game SD Gharnef (this art is still awesome too), this is still surprisingly great news.

Midnox Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Can’t see the image, but judging by so many mentions of Linde, it wasn’t hard to figure out it was, at last, Gharnef Wesker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I don't know that guy. I usually don't mind that, but he looks like a standard evil guy who will probably have standard evil lines. Thats boring... guess it's okay if others are happy, but I see no reason to ever use him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gharnef is from Shadow Dragon (Marth's game, originating from the NES days and remade for DS) and showed up in Warriors. He hypnotized Tiki before she and Marth met for the first time and I think is a manakete except he prefers using magic? In any case, he's not just some generic bad guy made out of nowhere for Heroes.

Vince777 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I wonder if they prettied him up because they considered his past art look wouldn't fit into heroes. He was pretty darn disgusting to look at in all his other appearances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Marth's dad is killed by Camus after he lost advantage by Gra betrayal. this is why REVENGER MARTH primary target enemy is King Jiol, and he really stopped being a raging revenger with overly inflated sense of self importance after Jiol. Its also why Camus is so hyped up as the most powerful human alive - the original intent of the lore was for them to potray Camus as a being so far beyond imagination, he destroyed a well trained army led by Marth's dad who is invincibile in close combat ....and yup, Marth as we know it now actually originates in FE12. FE11 Marth fits into Smash Bros Marth meme than everyone think he is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one thing I've always liked about Gharnef. For how generic his personality is, he's a pretty dang good tactician. He set in motion much of the chaos around Archanea and it really took everything Marth had to beat him on both occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) The art is absolutely fucking gorgeous. HACCAN returns to land a grand slam, touchdown, and catch the golden snitch in one go. I am also extremely pleased that it's based off of his Mystery of the Emblem appearance where he isn't some round, squat ball of necrotic tissue. He looks like an evil Tolkein elf (with human ears) with his pulled-back straight hair, handsome face, and smug smile. EDIT: And the sad Imhullu faces on the damaged art are kind of cute.

FE11 Marth fits into Smash Bros Marth meme than everyone think he is actually, they never specifically state who killed cornelius. jiol definitely played a part but its never specified that he killed cornelius himself just that he betrayed him, camus says that he was "party to your fathers murder" but even then one could question the validity of that statement, and gharnef had the falchion so its possible he did the deed and in fact thats what the anime version went with but its never specifically stated. personally i like the idea of gharnef doing the deed since its very in character for him, but it does seem that it was a collaborative murder atleast.
