Rezzy Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Well, after the update, I'm rank 296 on Mist and 4384 overall. If Lissa overshoots us, that may give Mist another Multiplier next hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not really satisfying for an underdog to win anymore when the multipliers (now even bigger) just make for artificial competition. (And I say this as someone who was vouching for Elise but joined team Sakura since I actually have her, and just did over 150k points per match during the 7.2 multiplier we just had. That was pretty absurd) yeah, i was the same way with the Robin vs Tharja match last time. honestly i'd have been a bit upset if we won. artificial competition makes for an artificial victory and it's not satisfying )8 i'm not even sure what they're trying to do with the multipliers by inflating them even more. are they trying to unbalance everything or are they just seeing how far they can push it before things go out of whack.. 5 minutes ago, phineas81707 said: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPjkLIcyEcc&t=64s&ab_channel=SuperPaltos23 It happens to have an evil twin. i prefer the evil twin for comeback music >) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Random thought, the idea of a "War of the Clerics" sounds a little weird when we consider that Clerics are first and foremost healers (except when you're trying to get them EXP ASAP in SoV- then they're precariously tossed into danger's way). We need healer overkill, or Overheal, to borrow the name of an Etrian Odyssey 2 skill. An Assist Skill (or Special or Passive that works with normal heal Assists) which like the EO version lets you give a unit bonus HP beyond their Max HP Cap that lasts for one turn. And while we're at it, EO also has Delayed Heal (command skill that heals everyone at the start of the next turn, but cannot be used consecutively), Chase Heal (heals one selected ally when they are injured), Artery (heal allies after they perform use up their action on this turn), and Final Gift (upon this unit being KO'ed, heals all allies). A little more fun and variety for healers? Whatcha think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astellius Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 24 minutes ago, Falcom said: Which teams do you guys think will advance this round? What's the score? Lady Priscilla's victory is assured at this point, as is the victory of Lachesis. I believe that Sakura will be the likely victor against Elise. She has a 180 mn point lead right now, and, the last hour, both teams hit the throttle hard, with Elise pulling 126.7 mn votes to Sakura's 77.8 mn. I think it'll go to Sakura, but we'll see...! As for Lissa & Mist, I think Lissa will likely trigger Mist's multiplier, but her gain might be so large that it won't matter. Who knows? That's the most turbulent round for these final hours. 20 minutes ago, Alexmender said: *Huff* *Huff* I'm out of flags, but we did it!!! We've surpassed Clarine! Well done Team Priscilla!!!

MonkeyCheez3K Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Yes, Lissa followers, give us the highest multiplier possible, we don't mind. Rofl, gauntlets are now so weird, I dare say stupid even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageOfAnys Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Honestly, as much as I like how the bonuses at least don't make almost every other match a curbstomp, it makes me feel like any other future match will never reach the levels of Chrom v. Ephraim from the first Gauntlet. I know popularity will always differ between characters, but IS really should understand that a bonus isn't a true solution when making these gauntlets more "fair" 2 minutes ago, phineas81707 said: Nuns and warfare do NOT mix!

Othin Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) This is so much more exciting than previous Gauntlets. The old style was great for determining which character is the most popular, but it was terrible for actually functioning as a game mode. Now the mode actually has a reason to exist. If you're annoyed about the multipliers, consider joining teams that will get more of them. Edited June 29, 2017 by Othin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And get rid of the victory bonus. I do like that this round they put Sakura and Elise against each other right away. Makes it more likely they'll burn through a good chunk of their feathers before facing someone else. That said, I'm happy that there's at least now a possibility for it not to be a total curbstomp. If they want to gauge character popularity, they should just do another poll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get people didn't like seeing Lucina and Camilla absolutely blow out the first gauntlets, but I'd rather it stay an honest popularity contest than an artificial competition. The gauntlet could use changes, but I don't think the multipliers was a very good answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
