How does combat work anyway? My Klein was completely destroyed by Narcian. Does it factor in the Delphi Shield that he has in Binding Blade (I see this Narcian is holding a sword) or do archers just don't have an advantage over fliers on this mode?

I prefer a weapon like Helswath to never be introduced than for them to give it to an Awakening unit. Don't care for Brian but I always liked Lombard's looks as I have a thing for the bearded old general types. I don't think Heroes includes even a single one of them. No Lorenz, Douglas, Hannibal, Tauroneo, Xavier, Duessel or Bryce. I went through my whole barracks and the only characters on there with a beard are the evil Garon & Surtr as well as Mordecai. None of them also sporting a mustache along with it. 😞 Where are the beards?

It's probably best for him considering the love was unreciprocated. Besides, Valbar was Leon's 2nd love crush so he can probably move on.

While all characters have a possibility of getting in, it is pretty clear that not all will. So we can speculate on who will get in and who will not.

IS cares about CYL ratings and Kris (male version anyway) was still, even prior to this banner, the highest ranked Archanean character (edging out Nagi and Sirius). Archanean banners are scarce but this still won't be the last one and the chances are rather high that he makes it in the next one. Alongside Nyna, who I don't think can be avoided another time.

Pretty sure Haar was released before the bridal banner.

So Kris stole a bit of spotlight from Marth in a game that's a remake of one that barely had any dialogue to begin with. I don't hate him/her for it at all and feel they actually didn't steal much. Besides, that game reintroduced supports after them being absent in FE11 so I'm grateful for it. Yeah, they'll get into Heroes eventually and I'll welcome it. Like the Morgans, they are somewhat class-adaptable and I doubt both will be introduced as sword infantry. I'm guessing M!Kris will be while F!Kris will be something else. Mark I hate profoundly though. Stupidest self-insert ever. Has no dialogue of their own and aren't playable.

They wouldn't have chosen Astram if it hadn't been for completing the Archenean Regalia so of course he's coming with it. I was under the impression they were waiting to put the Mercurius on Kris (or as Ogma's new weapon but he got something else) and would never release Astram but here he is.

I decided not to use Blazing Sword units since it seems to be about Binding Blade. So Roy/Lilina, Raigh/Lugh and Fir/Bartre is who I've been sending.

I wish they'd just inject a new batch of 3-4* units all at once. It would get people excited about pulling again. I know I would be. Might get a few players that took a break/quit playing to come back.

I have a strong aversion for non-canon alts but have none for Sirius nor am I concerned about him starting a trend. Zelgius not wearing his red armor did leave a bitter taste in my mouth though. I still don't get it.

Holy shit am I excited about them adding an actual entirely new unit to the 3-4* pool. Please let it be a trend.

I love Fates but I almost feel like telling you not to play it and pick something else as it seems quite clear that you won't be enjoying it. Feels like you may even have started playing with some prior prejudice. The writing is nowhere near as bad as some of you make it out to be. It's better than Awakening.

I mean if you're going to count Ephraim, why not Hector. Xena, the warrior princess used a chakram, that was pretty original (and... a sword). 😉 Robin Hood uses a bow. So does Merida. That's medieval/fantasy setting, right? I say give the next main hero some kick ass ball & chain weapon.

Thracia should never be blamed for it's poor sell figures though. The greatest game ever made wouldn't have sold on the snes in 1999.

If you want more characters added into the game, why would you ever think that 3-chars banners would do it as fast? They would need to release more banners to make up for it. If you want to have 3-char banners but have banners more frequently, I'd be down with it. There are probably a lot of chars that you do want that would not get released at all if they lowered the number of chars introduced. I don't want that. Or unless people play Heroes for reasons other than those you do play it for. I care very little for unit building, fodder or skills.

If you don't care so much for what specific new units you get, having a larger cast does not mean getting less new units for yourself. I rarely snipe so I wouldn't be getting more new characters if all banners were 3-character banners, the only difference is that I'd only be missing on less of them. 3-chars banners do not give me more new toys to play with. Besides, more characters also means you are less likely to be pity broken by one you already have, which would always happen if it were always easy to get all the banner characters. It also makes it easier to summon on the Legendady/Mythic banners, as they will generally include blocks of characters you don't have and that is because we don't have 3-chars banners anymore.

I understand the argument, we play Heroes and enjoy it differently, and as my desire is never to specifically snipe for a particular unit (or it rarely is), I prefer a cast as diversified as it can possibly be. I want to see more fresh faces, I want to see the art, I want to see them getting voice actors. The gameplay doesn't interest me as much and I certainly will never seek to play it competitively nor will ever invest money in it. I'm pretty sure most people prefer the 4 character banners anyway, since this is what IS has returned to. Besides, sniping isn't so hard, even for f2p players if all you want is the unit in your barracks. I'm guessing the issue only is if you really want the merges. I don't. I've never ever pulled with intent to merge and all of the merge units I have are from duplicates I didn't gun for. My highest are Julia, Rein and M!Marth at +3. I'll never have a +10 unit. Not even interested to use feathers for that. There's only 3 characters I really wanted that I've never gotten and they are Yune, Sothis and Mikoto since I have a preference for characters I couldn't play as in their original game. I'll get them down the road.

God I hope not. I want more units introduced, not less of them.

Could have just restarted. I know it sucks but that's what I would have done. Old style resetting.

Still trusting (hoping) we will get 5 farfetched heroes, 4 on a banner, the other being free. People assume it will be 4 because there were only 4 in the previous two farfetched banners but that was when new heroes banners didn't have 4 new units introduced anymore. IS has since ditched 3-heroes banners.

Zero Escape Ace Attorney Fire Emblem Mega Man Resident Evil Castlevania Metal Gear Pokémon Metroid

It also was during a time where 3-characters banners had been made the norm. I am hoping for 4 to be released plus an extra one this year. Many players, me included, would rather they release more characters than have greater sniping odds.

Yeah I think we've gotten many OC alternates recently because of CYL results.

We've ditched away the 3-characters banners. Please don't bring them back.
