SwordofAeons Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) Drafting:1. This draft is for 4 players.2. Eirika/Ephraim, Orson, Tethys, and Myrrh are free for all to use.3. Seth is banned from all use.4. The game will be played on Hard Mode. 5. Last round of drafting is tentatively reversed (ie. 12344321 -> 4321)Rules: 1. Following the draft, choose two non-dark affinities. Your team may only use drafted units from the chosen affinities, plus dark. Drafted units of other affinities act like undrafted units.2.

Undrafted units may not do anything not listed above, including but not limited to meatshielding, building Supports, opening Doors or Chests, and visiting villages.4. Map shopping is allowed.5. Skirmishes/use of the Tower or Ruins is disallowed. Skirmishes that are blocking your path may be activated and immediately fled from.6.

General Horace Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 sure, wynaut i'll join (i assume multiple people can have the same affinity since there are only 6 not including dark i think... right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it just means your options might be more constrained if there's competition for a particular affinity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Horace Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) dont care if light is horrible otherwise, Franz is worth it. oh, Baldrick PM'd me his next pick, which was Tana! Don't let him take Saleh Edited May 24, 2014 by General Horace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordofAeons Posted May 24, 2014 Author Share Posted May 24, 2014 I knew Vanessa would still be top, since she's got some nice partners in Anima. Was curious if someone would bite on Franz, though, hope Light works out for ya! Was hoping Tana + Saleh would make it back to me :< An argument could be made for Forde + Saleh, or even Moulder + Duessel/Lute, but I think I'll keep my options open and start in on Ice. Grabbing Kyle and Artur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Saleh. It's not quite a Tiltyu/Levin combo but it's still pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldrick Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Rage Gilliam was my earlygame contingency plan. Joshua is my next pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordofAeons Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 (edited) I was certain you would take Gerik so's I was considering Joshua myself. Turns out he supports with every Ice character except Kyle, who knew? But in this case, I'll take Gerik and Syrene. Pegs are my favorite class; gotta have at least one!

General Horace Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 (edited) OH Baldrick PM'd me a short list again! For this round only (im pretty sure) He takes Lute! I'll take CORMAG EPHRAIM ROUTE IS TOTALLY FASTER I KNOW IT the jokes on you guys Eirika and Ephraim are light and fire respectively Edited May 25, 2014 by General Horace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordofAeons Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 Looking at it, I think the last round is supposed to be reversed? I'll defer to the more experienced drafters, though, since that's not in the standard rules. Horace, Tethys is Fire, too ; ] . Playing to the theme, I see.

General Horace Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 It's been so long since i've done an FE8 draft, but I think the last round is reversed because being firstpick is already such an advantage in these drafts. But really it's up to you, you're the host! (and you're last so it'd help you the most :P) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genarog Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Duessel and Knoll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordofAeons Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 Horace PM'd me his next pick, which'll be the ever-lovable L'Arachel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 the list baldrick PM'd me still has some units on it, but he did say it was for the next round, so I don't think i'll pick for him. the pick he has listed also confuses me to thinking he got the affinity wrong or something so i'll just leave it for now.

SwordofAeons Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 Hrrm, I hope he really meant to pick Lute, then. I thought going into Anima to be a somewhat odd choice, though Lute can be pretty shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 (edited) Nah, Lute made sense in a way, he needed early units and there was still Duessel hanging around at the time too, but its the next pick on his list that confuses me. actually it makes sense now, if you had taken lute, selecting another affinity makes a lot more sense since he wouldn't have had anima Edited May 25, 2014 by General Horace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordofAeons Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 I assume undrafted units can't visit villages? It's odd that's not made explicit either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Yeah, undrafteds can't visit villages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
