Pre Banner Discussion Thread: Legendary Hero of May 2024.


Recommended Posts

So we get to another Legendary Hero (It's already confirmed to be a Legendary on the Event Calendar), it seems they're doing an even rotation of Emblems, Legendaries and Mythics (in this order), as a lot of us already suspected.

 Here's the L/M/E table for this month: 

 The only free slots are green and colorless.

Don't know about the blessing, some people mentioned a few times on Reddit that it's supposed to be Fire (the mentions where not on this thread I linked above with the chart, it was another one) but I can't verify whether that is true or if someone said it once and the information started to be parroted on that thread so I can't claim it to be correct.

 Anyway, the banner is supposed to drop on the 31th (as per Event Calendar).

 

 You know the deal, what are your expectations, theories and wants (or not wants) for the upcoming banner?

Colorless seems more likely, but who knows. Maybe male Corrin at last?

Either green or colorless would mean sharing with one of the two known units I already have, so the real colors I'm interested in here are red and blue.

Going for red for Emblem Ike merges/fodder, or Emblem Marth is going to be very tempting.

As for the new Legendary, I'm not sure what to expect anymore. We have Male Corrin and Male Shez as options, and I'm sure they'll give Diamant, Ivy, Alfred, and Timerra a Legendary at some point. Some people have mentioned Lissa, Minerva, Nyna, Elice, Soren, Sothe, and Mist as potentials, although whether or not any of those characters "deserves" it is very divisive. And then of course there's Heroes own OCs, such as Henriette. Regardless, it feels like the most prominent characters are running low, and we're left with a lot of prominent "secondary" (for lack of a better term) characters, so it's hard to get a feel for what to expect.

The laguz royals are also options, and Leo and Takumi too, and I wonder if they'll give us a non Grima Legendary F!Robin (bet they will just for the fanservice), it really is hard to know what to expect at this point with so many options. And it doesn't help that most/a lot of them could be almost any color.

 It wouldn't be strange to get an Engage one since they started to go full on it this year after ignoring them in 2023 and the only Engage legendaries yet- after a whole year- are the Alears, but at the same time every Leg. And Mythic this year but one has been from Engage (I'm not sure if I should cound the Emblems since they're technically all from there so I left them out but anyway) so it'd piss me off a bit to get another one this soon.

 Also, obligatory "I hope it's Athos" mention, specially cause we just got Nergal and I want an excuse to convince myself that Athos is closer and closer to come.

I am going to guess M!Shez since we haven't had any 3Hs on a banner in two months, I am being sarcastic though I am betting there will be 3Hs on one of the summer banners.  M!Corrin is also one my top guesses since he is long over due. Back before 3Hs came out they did that banner group with every lord and their second on them and they have done everyone from that except: Sothe, Itsuki and Tsubasa from TMS which I know those two won't get in.  If I go by that M!corrin, Sothe and F!robin if they Don't count F!Grima are the only characters from that left to add.  It is going to be interesting how they go from here and I see Emblems as IS's trying to slow down running out of people to use as fast.

Yeah, they're definitively trying to slow down running out of options, otherwise Emblem heroes couldn've simply been saved to be released around july as the new type of hero of the year (though, it'd be a bit shitty if they shoved lords on a bunch of new heroes banners). They were already trying to slow down the release of new mythics (when they announced that we'd start to only get them when previously mentioned instead of every other month as usual, it ended up being every third month) because they started to run out of options, but in doing so they had to release more legendaries than normal so they started to run out of options for then too, making a third type was the only way to avoid it (or stop making them every month but that'd be worse). Even if Emblems seem like an obvious excuse to slow the Leg. And Mythics down, I don't really mind it.

 On the legendary options, I think I have very few chances of being actually disappointed with the choice at this point since I don't detest anyone missing, M!Shez might be the only one (from the top of my head at least) I REALLY don't care for, and Lissa too but if she gets a staff I'll want her anyway cause I like staff units (I don't want the Engage crowd right now mostly because they already got a legendary and a mythic this soon on the year but if it's later I won't mind too).

The legendary will be fire blessing...

If it's Green, I can see it being Minerva, as a Axe Flier.

If colorless, I liked the idea of Male Shez. Maybe as a colorless dagger.

I wouldn’t rule out axe Diamant as a possibility here, as much as we don’t need another Engage legendary yet.

That said, I’ll keep expecting legendary M!Shez until it actually happens.

Though if we do get M!Shez here, he would have the same legendary blessing as F!Shez. The Robins are the only avatar pair with matching blessings so far, but that also has the caveat of one of those Robins essentially being Grima rather than Robin.
