Tin foil hat time: Shin, perhaps the most visible of the Japanese FEH whales, influenced the Ayra banner decision. A few days ago he made a tweet hoping that Ayra was on a banner so he could get a bunch of copies for a full merge. This is a guy who casually talks of +10ing a unit like it's nothing to him, and is streaming himself whaling for Ayra as I make this post.
The files for unreleased banners are already in the update data, just encrypted. IntSys already planned to put her on a scumbag late release banner long before that whale tweeted.
That being said, her being the 4* TT reward may still be a possibility as I remember reading somewhere that Arden only had 5* stats in the data while Ayra had 4* stats as well. Just clinging on to hope at this point
-
To put things into perspective, I have yet to see someone actually happy about this development (besides those lucky bastards who got Ayra on their free roll), and this is possibly the most pissed off I've ever seen this fanbase become.
How did we go from "free CYL unit for everyone" to this?
-
Well, guess I'm never getting Ayra. Don't have any incentive to roll for an infantry sword (with pity breaker risk), even if she's the best infantry sword in the game. Deirdre is still higher priority for me.
-
Just checked the twitter account and Google translated the comments. Japanese fanbase is just as pissed off as we are. Hopefully IS will rethink their banner methods.
-
So the 40% selection consists purely of newly introduced units. That's just garbage game design, and basically forces players to get lucky or pay up if they don't want to suffer.
One thing I did notice is that all the bonus units are gen 1 characters, which hints at a separate gen 2 banner+TT, maybe next month? (Ishtar pls)
-
What the fuck IntSys. That is possibly the worst 40% unit selection to ever exist in a tempest trial. And having Ayra on a banner where you can be spooked by Eldigan? I'm at a loss for words.
-
Did someone say red mages?
Lilina is +1 and both her and Katarina have Redblade+ so that's 2 dead Tharjas as well.
-
Well, I lied. Promoted my Arvis because I have no self control.
Currently running Ardent sacrifice, Growing flame (not enough feathers to promote Iceberg fodder), fury 2 (goddamnit Hinata), recover ring and def ploy
-
I don't have galeforcers, so I just killed all the reinforcements with bladetome spam as usual. Nothing really different from the BHBs, just more enemies to take out. I didn't even get to see Valflame in action because Ephraim oneshots his ass even on infernal
Def ploy at 4* is nice, but I don't have any units that use it well. (No, I'm not going to promote an Est for this)
-
Distant defense 3 is now mine. Going for spd+3 (squad ace version) next, because 3 points of speed is a lot, all things considered. Also lets me patch up Minerva's -Spd IV if I want to.

Another week in Tier 19 for me. Back to Tier 20 next week. Will I ever manage to stay? I'm beginning to doubt it.
I'm still too dumb as a strategist to survive seven AA matches deathless on Hard difficulty. Doing it on Intermediate is manageable most of the time unless I get screwed by lots of B!Lyns and dancers. 17 Sacred Coins with my score every week are fine enough for me, just sucks that I'd be able to get a 4900+ score if I just wasn't so bad at pushing around my units sometimes.
I also realised that I really need some blue units. I basically rely on Sharena, Camus, Valter, Est and Reinhardt all the time. Clive has been good as well. Otherwise I just have a Clair, Ursula and Mathilda who are useable but not exactly reliable. Would promoting a +DEF Effie or +ATK/+DEF -RES Lukas to 5* be worth spending the feathers? I guess they both need Brave Lance+, which I even could afford to give them...
I'd say Lukas would be a good promotion, especially with those IVs, but I prefer the QR set over brave lance.

New week, new runs
Arena: 4,844 Team: B!Lyn, Cecilia, Ninian, BK
Arena Assault: 4,866
Didn't lose a single match.
Sigurd's absurd tankiness is annoying but that's all he really does. He's just hard to kill. Lots of Amelias this week. Also ran into a weaponless BK in arena assault, not that I'm complaining.
Dancer wise, Azura is by far the least threatening of the PA dancers, due to how the AI's movement works. With the ranged dancers, there is a constant risk of having them refresh B!Lyn or Reinhardt, which is really scary on maps with walls.
-
Arvis looks good for a free red mage, but as someone with a +Atk Celica and +Spd Katarina, I doubt I'll 5* him. Saving my feathers in case Ayra becomes a GHB, or if she's not, then I may just keep saving those feathers.
-
I'm hoping that Julia will be a 40% bonus because I don't have anyone else from FE4. Not even Seliph
She is the tempest banner unit so there's a pretty high chance she will be 40%, but then again, BK wasn't a 40% despite that.
-
I wonder how they're going to distribute Arden and Ayra with only one TT. Maybe Arden will be the 6k reward and Ayra the 30k reward, so players will have to spend feathers to 5* Arden and discourage them from using Ayra as skill fodder
-
Arena bonus units. It's Cecilia week, so B!Lyn and Reinhardt won't be a problem.
-
No 5*s, but I barely saved any orbs so that was to be expected. TT should give me the orbs to continue rolling. Already have 3 of the seasonal dancers so I can focus on this banner, aiming for Deirdre mostly.
Actual pulls:
3*: 2 stahls, A!Tiki, Arthur
4*: Eirika, Camilla
Camilla is draconic aura fodder. Eirika is -Atk so she's Hone Spd fodder.
-
Question is, why do Sigurd and Ayra get +5 BST compared to similar units? I can understand for the CYL winners, but this sets a worrying precedent. Not to mention Arden literally powercreeping Zephiel.
-
This skillset. This goddamn skillset.
SpoilerRegnal Astra is 2 cooldown. What the fuck
Also, Arvis has def ploy for the memes
-
I'm just waiting for the arena season to end so I can get the last 2 coins I need for distant defense 3. (Gonna swap this between Hector and Xander when necessary)
After that, I think I'll go for Spd +3 then maybe deflect magic 3 (I think level 2 may be enough for now though) or the fortify seals to make Ephraim a better buffer.
I probably won't upgrade the Atk seal until I get the squad ace variant as I just like the skill icon better.

What probably makes it even better is that Ninian defeated both genders of Corrin in a single gauntlet, just to add salt to the wound.
Corrin double eliminated Tiki, and Ninian double eliminated Corrin. What a gauntlet.
Ranked 2.8k in team Ninian (caught the last 4 multipliers) and 13k cumulative.

Shoutout to the guy on my friends list with the +7 Eliwood. Saved me so many matches.

Looking through my current roster, aside from Julia, none of the units I have were directly powercrept. Most of my roster consists of either already outclassed units I rolled for because I liked them (Alm, Gray, Mathilda, Lyn) or units that are still considered the best at what they do (Ephraim, Celica, Delthea, Hector, dancers). Note: only listed units I spent orbs on, promotions and pitybreakers don't count.
As such, I haven't really been burned too hard but I do feel bad for those who were using units now outclassed because of powercreep
