Espinosa Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 Wow these teams look fresh and different from OU stuff. "Luck be with us" I'm pretty sure the introduction of skills/boosters will be gradually re-defining what we perceive as "OU". Some of the differences between Top and Mid tiers for example, come down to how much boosters a character should eat up to provide some form of utility.

Elieson Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Also, I still think Oscar > Keiran > Geoffrey > Titania. I'm more intersted to see how boosters affect nonroyals like Mordecai and Rigby Lethe, and others. +Hit affinity units generally seem less durable and less dodgy than others. Elincia, Lethe and Stefan are outclassed, and Elincia pretty much needs Geoffrey on the field in order to function any better (and Geoffrey seems outclassed by Oscar, who fits onto an Ike/Elincia team extremely easily and has choice of weaponry). Most earth affinity (Read, not Lucia) seem to fit well into teams, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonymousSpeed Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I'm totally hacking an FE9 rom now and renaming Lethe Rigby. Still wouldn't field her in link arena though, heaven affinity blows. I dunno, maybe it works with Gamble, if anyone wants to test that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Espinosa Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 You have 16 defence. Yeah actually, besides having enough HP/def to not be OHKO'd by guys like Boyd, you have to have enough not to be 2HKO'd by Naesala or a brave attack (Naesala is comparable to an interrupted brave attack with good accuracy).

Espinosa Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 Anon, could you please edit those huge quotes out? The page is harder to navigate and the match becomes difficult to follow that way. Naesala seemed like the least viable of the three royals because his attack is low and people run Laguzguards on just about any unit you'd forget to expect one on. That was before Sages became viable with the introduction of boosters, though. Elieson, you're lucky (I think?) that I caught your edit on time.

AnonymousSpeed Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Naesala is the best royal. In FE9 at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
