bethany81707 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Starting with the most important unit, the Lord is vital to success in any game. Mandatory to all missions and the only characters who can Seize, Lords have utility in every run... whether you like it or not. Lords fight with Swords, with few exceptions. Each Lord is unique in that each fills a different niche in the party, with strengths and weaknesses that change from Lord to Lord. So yeah, this is a class-based vote inspired by the Choose Your Legend event, where I'll run through the various classes. Later polls might be split into Classic/Veteran/Modern, depending on how many choices there are. Classic encompasses 1-5, Veteran 6-10, and Modern 13-14.

Troykv Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I love Micaiah, even if we don't talk about her other traits, gameplay-wise is an interesting unit to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magical Glace Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Roy and Micaiah are pretty much tied for me. Eirika also gets an HM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinar87 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Ike because he's a goddamn beast in PoR and RD...in fact, he's just a goddamn beast in general! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
False Prophet Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Ike, as expected, is on the lead. He is balance between gameplay and plot, after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rend Keaven Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I went for Hector has he's in my opinion the most human out of the lords, his brass nature and personality are entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Of course my answer is Ike, why would it be anyone else but our favorite blue-haired mercenary commander? <3 He's the perfect mix of badass, handsome, and beastly! Not only is he my favorite lord, but he's also my favorite FE character period and one of my favorite video game characters of all time. Ike's even kinda been there for me in real life, having gotten me a close friend and put a big smile on my face after my grandma passed when he was revealed for Smash Wii U/3DS. Sharing that top video game character spot only with Luigi from the Mario series, I don't think anyone will top this guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucarioGamer812 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 While all the lords I know are awesome, I'll go with Eirika as she has the most character of the ones I was choosing (Chrom, Lucina, and Marth) HM to Ike and Roy though, Ike for being Ike and amazing, and Roy for being the driving force that caused me to get into FE.

Sylphid Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Gave my vote to Eirika, it was basically a tie between her and Ike. PoR Ike #1 tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koumal8 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Seliph: blue hair check, long hair check, is broken check, gets my favourite legendary sword check, stars in my favourite FE game check, is the son of my 2nd favourite Lord check.

B.Leu Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Ike. From my favorite Fire Emblem game. Most, are close second. Especially Marth. Being able to cosplay as them in Fates was just badass. Though Sigurd is pretty cool too, ah... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayni Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Leaf. No Blue Hair? Check. Has to be the main lord in Thracia 776? Check. Is still more useful than Roy in his game, despite the worst promotion in the series? Check. Gets to be a Master Knight? Oh my yes Check. Is a great unit without a holy weapon, or some other powerful equipment? Check. Can he still wield some ridiculous equipment AND do a broken as hell glitch? Check. Is friends with the Prince of Light (and maybe the Black Knight)? Check. Managed to survive his party wiping because Kaga decided people just can't win if their name ain't Seliph in Judgral? Check. Takes over Thracia? Check. Accept no substitutes. Alright, shitty checking aside, Leaf is the lord who's forced to flee to a village by the sea when he's young and ends up leading a popular rebellion that manages to go through the mire that is the Thracian army, the Grandbellian occupation (led by Freege), the Lopt Sect and some of the worst gimmicks in the series (especially the warp tiles). All of this is why he's my favourite lord, and if Tellius makes me change my mind I'll let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caster Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Micaiah and Roy are my favorites, I'll throw the vote for Micaiah cause she gets the most flack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Micaiah because she's the mascot of my favorite FE game and the leader of my favorite party gameplay- and personalitywise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't check the poll before voting so I wouldn't have known beforehand. Really? I see a lot of love for Micaiah lately which surprises me because I always thought and still do think she's a pretty badly written and boring lord. I like that an original take was attempted with her, she has a cool design, and I think she had a lot of potential, but I feel IS just dropped the ball entirely with her. So suddenly seeing all kinds of love for her after the general opinion seemed to be that she was awful...well, yeah, it was a surprise to me. But we all have our favorite lords and characters, and sometimes opinions change over time. And I respect that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeheza Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Ike's still my fave lord at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentinel07 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Ike is my favorite by far. Eirika takes 2nd place for me. Partially for nostalgic reasons (Sacred Stones was my first) but aside from that, I find her to be a good example of the naive princess trope, certainly better than others (Corrin!)

To be perfectly honest, I'm surprised Eirika/Micaiah is beating out Lyn/Sigurd. Ike's taking all, though. And the underdog here is Chrom. He still doesn't have a vote.

Sweet_Basil Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I like Eirika the most followed by Micaiah but I think I'm going to like Cellica a lot too. Her design is charming but I need to know her character first. Eirika is my favorite because of nostalgia + characterization. Micaiah is my second favorite because she's so different and the better written lord in Radiant Dawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
