Johann Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Link to the website The details are thus: Top 8 voted heroes will be in a Voting Gauntlet (late Feb), and the winner is given out for free (mid-March) In said VG, all units will score the same, so no need to worry if you don't have that unit for the 1.1x score bonus Doesn't seem to be affected by color; it's possible, for instance, for all 8 heroes to be blue Can't vote for regular Alfonse/Sharena/Anna, of course It's not clear if there'll be banners for these top 8 heroes, but it's certainly possible, since last year's version of this event lead to a banner for the 4 winners Edit: Midway results so far For those who can't see the image, the list for now is: Altina Mythic Sothis Legendary Azura Winter Sothis Lif Edelgard Legendary Alm Legendary Leif NY Alfonse Duo Idunn Brave Veronica Surtr Legendary Ike Dimitri Legendary Roy Fallen Corrin F Ephraim Duo Byleth F Claude Fallen Tiki Edited February 4, 2020 by Johann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan Corona Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I voted for Igrene. I need another Life & Death 4 haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 And once again the voting doesn't require a Nintendo Account, uh oh. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nym Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I would suggest voting for Mythic or Legendary heroes. Kind of waste to vote for regular heroes when you can vote for heroes that are always a pain to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SockPuppet Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I voted for L Alm cuz I don't have him, but I like him! I, too, will see if anyone can make a good case for a unit. I wouldn't want them for fodder, but rather for personal use. Though I am more worried about the VG. Winning this popularity poll may mean nothing in the long run lol.

trainer_derp Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Reddit seems to be leaning towards Altina.  Me, I wouldn't mind L!Leif or L!Alm. Askr Duo is great as well.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeo Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Voted for NY!Alfonse for obvious reasons. NY!Alfonse, Lif, Sothis, W!Sothis, Nagi, Nailah, NY!Lethe, Idunn, W!Marth, L!Alm, H!Hector, L!Celica. All powerful and mostly rare units I'm sure more people would love to have. I'll be voting for some of these but there's a good chance I'll be all in on Alfonse unless we get mid-term results that suggest someone else winning. I see Altina being a popular choice too. That would suck for anyone that already has her since she has 0 fodder potential. But she eclipses L!Ike in overall utility across all game modes. She'd be a big QoL improvement for new players.

Bankai Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I'm voting for Naga but most of the mystics wouldn't be bad to get. Same with say duo Hector so something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I kinda wish the final would come down to Legendaries Leif vs Azura. I have both and am not particularly concerned about getting one extra copy from the event, but they're such big quality-of-life improvements to own, at least for casual players, that I feel everyone should have access to them now. If the VG was them plus a bunch of Duo heroes that'd probably be the most no-lose scenario. In terms of personal wants, it'll be one of the premium flying healers, but with CYL3 being a Hero Fest this week, I probably should just go for that.

Yeah, I think it's best to go for units with rarer skills for something like this. And I believe, she has the only Life and Death 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNiddo Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Voted for W!Sothis. I wanna get rid of that -Res I have on mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexmender Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I voted Altina just to get the neutral nature perks after merging. I don't feel particularly inclined to get anyone right now, so meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunwoo Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Fuck it, I picked Idunn. Everyone loves fortress def/res 3. And I wouldn't mind getting another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure the Scale Tipper Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Voting for Soirée Reinhardt for the people who can appreciate a dancer like him or some Joint fodder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I voted for Hrid. I want to merge him more. And RD Ike already won last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingle Jangle Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 First day a vote goes for Dimitri. I regret not summoning for him before 3h came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roflolxp54 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Picked Summer Lyn for day 1 but will probably vote Altina for the next several days. Edited February 2, 2020 by Roflolxp54 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneStar Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I'm on the Igrene boat too. I'll probably drop some for L!Leif too since I just got him with -Atk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NekoKnight Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Man, them choosing the winner by a VG is a guaranteed recipe for salt. I can be glad the voting isn't biased like last year ("You can vote for any Ike, I mean hero, to make them available to all players. You can even vote for LEGENDARY IKE!!! Or any other hero you want. But especially LEGENDARY IKE! Woooooow!" Kthx Feh.) but the result of this event could be the 8th most popular character winning. Upsets are really unimportant for a normal VG but this has a significant award. I think I'll vote for Altina anyway. She's a good unit and a good choice for all players because she's a hero anyone can use for AR (we already have two free Light heroes, so free Astra heroes ought to be a thing).

Icelerate Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Vote Altina or Naga. Offense mythic heroes are the best value. Also it'd be nice if F2P can have an offense mythic hero on astra season. I prefer Altina as a unit and would prefer a second Altina over a second Naga but I wouldn't be upset with Naga either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just...why? 😕 And mind you, this is coming from a huge Ike fangirl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 The impact of a Mythic hero won't exactly be groundbreaking when rewards are so reliant on rank. If you get one, so does everyone else. Though it will make going through tiers easier, and strengthen a one you have; and the rarity point is legit. Voted Igrene anyway. I love her a lot and figure I can piggyback off those who just want the fodder lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
