  1. I am very happy Celica pulled a win! 

    Veronica making it to second is not at all what I would have expected. Good for her and her fans. 

    Otherwise I have very little opinion on the female side. Do wish Nino had passed up Loki but that’s neither here nor there at this point. 

    For the guys though! Hell yes Hector! Couldn’t be happier there!

    Ephraim, neat! I really need to finish Sacred Stones so I can actually appreciate this guy. 

    RIP Marth, one day your time in the Heroes spotlight will come. One day...

    The real shock though! Soren managed to squeeze in there to the top 20!! Had his PoR and RD votes been combined he would have been 14th! 

    And Keaton and Kaden (and Selkie) are there too! Good. Give me beast units.

    IS needs to can it with the split votes next year or riot

    I feel honored to be your sole ping; thanks for thinking of me.

    I'm afraid I got the exact same freebie summon as you.  I went into the pull thinking I'd go Red and maybe get lucky.  I really want that Ike, but I also really don't want Sanaki (again).  I've gotten her off-focus twice already.

    And she's +Spd-Def too.  Does it count as off-focus if she's the color parasite for the unit I want?

    I think I'll have to wait until next legendary banner to fish for my Ike, with my luck, I'll just get more Sanakis.  That's always the case when the unit I want shares a color with somebody.  I don't feel 62 Orbs would be enough to get me Ike, and I don't want to whale right now.

    I think I was significantly happier to see Sanaki than you were. Murphy's law was in full effect for you ouch. Waiting for the next Ike banner is probably wise, this one was not kind with the reds.

    @DarkLordIvy I think it ironic that you and me both got a Siegbert with the same nature one the legendary banner, with it being +atk/-spd

    I managed to get the same Sanaki as Rezzy too. It's one of those banners apparently lol.

  3. Oh boy oh boy I had a wild time summoning on this banner last night. It was not kind to me, I went in with 138 orbs, I left with four

    Let me share the nonsense!

    I dive headfirst into the hypocrite pool, I’m not happy what they did with Erika but damnit I want that Vangaurd Ike!

    Free summon, my free summon was good! A +spd/-def Sanaki, awesome! I have a soft spot for the gremlin emeperes and my original was -atk so I’m happy with her, and the free summon too!

    That was the point where my luck hit the pits for a long time.

    This is by far the worst pity rate I’ve gotten on one of these hellish bait banners. I still consider the pity rates I hit on Sigurd original banner and the battling Zephiel banner from way back to have been worse.

    The only thing of note to come out of the giant pity gap was a 4* Seliph. That was a nice pull, I now have a +6 Seliph!

    Then I got two circles in a row with no colorless and the inevitable happened.

    My least favorite character on the banner. Woopee. Yeah that was disheartening. Especially since this is yet another dagger unit with a nature I would really have loved for my poor Jaffar to end up with, +spd/-hp. That is a moot point now though because that Fredrick has immediately fulfilled his purpose and now Jaffar has silly daggers! 

    At this point I was down to about 50 some orbs, which was originally going to be my stopping point. I have no self control. 

    Right after that Fred I got Siegbert, much happier about him as a pity breaker even when there was not rate to break.

    +Atk/-Spd, the speed loss stinks but I can make attack, attack, attack! work on him I think. 

    And so I just kept going because I don’t know when to quit all the way down until I had four orbs left and ho boy I could have cried.

    Ike you dick, thank you for taking pity on me in the end! He is neutral nature, that was also a huge relief. 

    Ffffffff these 8% banners are terrible terrible sinks. Thank goodness there’s the TT and anniversary stuff to replenish my stockpile of orbs. 

    @Rezzy(sorry, I’m dead and can’t think of anyone else to ping)

    To be fair I think there's a difference between having a "cute" unit and having a unit that looks like a prostitute.  I don't think there's a male equivalent of units like Camilla and Loki, but I could be wrong as I haven't really played the newer ones.

    There are not any male characters that are like those two. The thing is, there really isn’t a way to make a male version of a fanservise character like Camilla or Loki because the male body has not been and is not sexualized the way the female body is. 

  5. Maciah and Sothe just strikes me as an awkward relationship to turn romantic. I’m not a fan. 

    I am partial to Maciah/Pelleas, still a bit awkward but I feel like they have way better potential romantic chemistry. My second choice would be to pair her with Volug even though he’s not an option here. He’s who I’ve had Maciah support in my first RD run.

    I suppose this was bound to happen eventually, but I drew this team as the option for Advanced that I'm sure doesn't look familiar to @DarkLordIvy when I went into the Arena for the sole purpose of bumping Black Knight's HMs (was at 3498) past 3500.

    And if anyone cares, my score is sitting at 4928 (obtained with the team pictured above) which of course is nowhere near good enough to retain a spot in Tier 20.

    Ha that is hilarious! I’d be surprised to find another team like my so in all likelihood there’s my boys and the bonus girl of the week. This would be the second time someone I know from my friend list found me in the arena.

    tip: don't bother trying to encourage Anacybele; she *always* complains about the game being too hard, not having strong enough units, etc., etc.

    Oh believe me, I'm well aware.

    It entertains me

    Around here, we don't pronounce the first "N" in Mountain.

    Ephraim is properly pronounced Ee-fray-um.

    Mountain is a lie of a word.

    Huh Ee-fray-um rolls off the tongue pretty well.I'm pretty sure the first pronunciation of Ephraim I tried was Ee-Fur-em, which prompted my friend to laugh for far longer than nessesary. She then could not give me a satisfacyory pronunciation of her own so I've been "??????" ever since.

    Wow, even with help, infernal isn't possible for me. I won't use videos because they never help. I won't ever have the exact same units and stats and skills and that means the enemy will behave differently. I even tried using a video again this time and this still happened.

    So anyone making/sharing videos, you're wasting your time, honestly. They won't help much. The effort is nice, but unfortunately, the reality is that few people will get results from them.

    And here I've had two people say my video helped them beat infernal. Not everyone is making videos specifically to help people ether. That's not why I did mine, I just have fun clearing things with only Soren doing damage and its fun to share stuff like that.

    The thing about a lot of the videos is you usually can't follow them step by step because not all of the units are exactly the same. You need to mess around with what you have when there's a strategy that might work for you.
