Lightchao42 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Today's reveal features Faye as a Harrier, who evidently believes that excessive cleavage is the way to Alm's heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedDrake Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) Ah, so that is the gimmick that the overclasses are going to have? Can't wait to see how busted Conqueror Alm will end up being. Edited November 3, 2017 by RedEyedDrake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChibiToastExplosion Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 If I'm reading that the right way, it costs more to promote her than it does to outright deploy her? She's a flier at least; I hope someone will need these Faye cards, because I sure don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedDrake Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) Also, it seems that the overclasses are going to have a completely new design around their deployment/promotion costs when compared to promotions that aren't the overclasses. And their promotion cost's circle is completely golden already. Makes me wonder what would happen with a signed overclass card. Both the promotion cost's number and the circle being the exact same color wouldn't work, obviously. Meanwhile, turning the regular deployment cost to be the same as the color inside their power and support circles isn't an option either for the exact same reason.

I need these Faye cards, taking out a bond without giving the opponent a new card in hand sounds very good to me. And with Alm as lord she always has 1-2 range. (or am I missing the sarcasm here?)

RedEyedDrake Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) Well, guess that signed Harrier Faye answers my previous question. Signed overclass units simply have the number of their regular deployment cost turn gold and leave it at that. Additionally, looks like non-OC characters who appeared in Warriors really are going to have gray versions of themselves. The DLC characters are probably not going to get cards here, sadly. Would have liked to see Minerva get a modern version of herself here. Oh well, there's always S13, at least. Also, gray cards are actually going to have promotions this time around. Speaking of "OCs", looks like my guess about how since Shade and Yuzu were their SoV selves in S9 while Yuzu and Randall joined the other factions of that set this set is going to have Yuzu and Randall as their SoV selves while Shade and Yuzu will be in other factions. Or "faction", actually, since I doubt that they would actually end up being gray. Well, I say that I was correct but all that has actually been confirmed is that Yuzu is going to be red. Her art is too blurry to really make out if she is actually her Priestess self or not. I also wonder how Alice and Valjean will be handled here. Neither appeared in SoV but would they really get gray promotions this time around? Because if both of them will end up neither red nor gray then four of the six Cipher OCs will end up purple in this set. Which would be an odd distribution, to say the least. Or if at least one of them does end up gray then maybe at least one of either Shade or Emma will be gray instead of purple as well? We'll see, I guess. By the way, is Myrrh the first card to feature that sort of gap (due to being weaponless) among her "characteristic" icons? And I see that the 5/4 Ephraim and Eirika have been based around the 5/4 Alm and Celica from S9, what with the costs, the joined art, Duma and Fomortiis in the background and everything else. Also, given that all three of the games that are getting featured in this set have the "dual protagonist" thing in them (though Alm and Celica aren't twins or even blood related at all), it makes me wonder if the card designers will go all the way and also have the 4/5 Conqueror Alm and Rigain Celica as well as the promoted, Great Lord versions of Rowan and Lianna have joined art with mini-Grima and Velezark in the background respectively.

Hardin Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I wouldn't look too deeply into Eirika and Ephraim's joined art as being indicative of the other lords getting that. They've had joined art with the final boss in the background going back as far as series 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you've already seen the signed Harrier Faye, but I'd like to add that the card design for overclasses is actually recycled from the cards used for characters in master classes (aka third tier classes) that have been around since Series 5, see Micaiah SR or the newer Gray SR+ for comparison. I think for all intents and purposes overclasses won't be as overpowered in FE Cipher as they are in FE Echoes because the TCG seems to want to group them together with third tier classes for the sake of game balance. I personally find it nice to see how they've accommodated the card game to include overclasses without treating them as broken fourth tier classes.

DefyingFates Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 How long does it usually take for someone to translate the card effects? I'm really looking forward to seeing what these do, especially the "Twin Strike" thing the Renais twins have. P.S. That art is utterly glorious. For all the criticism FEW gets, at least it got us these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the criticism FEW gets, at least it got us these. For daily reveals, we typically have people around in the FE Cipher Discord server to provide translations immediately after they're posted, thus letting our wiki editors get that out soon after. Just check the pages for Eirika or Ephraim to see what their SR cards do, which we've had up since earlier today. Cards that debut in bulk through livestreams or set release generally take some time longer to get put up, but their translations can still be found on the Discord for quick reference until they're eventually on the wiki (like these which aren't yet), which I believe we normally wait on for quality assurance.
