For all we know they're boosting Gatekeeper. The legitimacy of these polls were left wide open to questions and we just left it be. Was the only evidence that this Jorge guy was in 12th? 24 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: At this point I'd just like to see a losers banner, featuring the CyL bottom places. After this is over, we'll have enough for the customary four units + a grand hero battle or whatever. Plus, I'd get Frost official artwork. Get to it, IntSys. Wait who is that again?

He's a bishop who's playable in Minerva's Archanea Chronicle, as well as New Mystery. He's quite possibly the most unpopular character in the entire series. 1 minute ago, Acacia Sgt said: This guy: A Macedonian priest who first appeared in the Satellaview FE, then added to New Mystery. That's the man's face, yes. Honestly, it's one of the reasons I'm so fond of the guy. Everything about him screams one-off boss, from his face to his attire; but not only is he playable, he's also the most wholesome, kind grandpa in Archanea. How does a guy like that develop a square-shaped frown? I'll never understand it, but I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acacia Sgt Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) Guy got done dirty. New Mystery states how he's trying to catch up with Marth's army as early as the first time they were in Macedon (so Chapters 2-3), but then loses the trail when Marth goes to Anri's Way, and only finally catch up at Adrah Pass (Chapter 18), after having to first find out where they were again. He at least looked happy in his BSFE mug. Maybe the frown is for all the walking he had to do. lol Edited January 27, 2021 by Acacia Sgt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's another part of why I like him. The guy straight up travels for months, from one side of Archanea to the other twice just so he can thank Marth for saving his country. How badass is that?

Though it'd be funny if he had actually tried to brave Anri's Way himself too. Frost: *After finally reaching Ice Dragon Temple* At last, there's nowhere Marth can head to without running into me! Gotoh: Oh, I already warped Marth away from here. Frost: ... --- Also: Speedrunner Completionists hate him!

I mean, the Sable Knights pulled it off. Just nonchalantly walked into the volcano to have a friendly chat with Marth, like it's nobody's business. They didn't even take off their oversized jackets, for crying out loud! Speaking of those guys, I love them too. Actually, scratch that, I love all of the Archanea Chronicles dudes. I like all of their designs. All of them. They're so cool, it's criminal that only Malice got artwork of any sort. 2 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Also: Ahahahahahah... Yeah, I've seen that one before. The OG Chronicles were weird, man. I'm glad FE12 adapted them into more conventional chapters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad FE12 adapted them into more conventional chapters. To be fair, they had horses, so they could catch up much faster than Frost. That's certainly a unique recruitment alright. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's due to the trending increase Jorge had in CYL over the years. PM1 had a video discussing it around the time of CYL last year (another topic around the same time here), here's another thread listing some of the posts from the Jorge botter in particular closer to time here. The problem being of course that there's no caught red handed moment in all this, combined with the lack of an idea of the scope of botting involved, the making mandatory of needing a Nintendo account wouldn't change that.) (I doubt Gatekeeper would be there solely on bots, but I do think it's possible some of those with large votes are getting bots too.) 19 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: That's the man's face, yes.

Armagon Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I regret to inform you that Ryza can't even interact with barrels aside from breaking them, which means she does not say "barrel", which means the game is shit actually. 0/10 smh.

Those three badasses made it through the awful desert chapter on their own, as cavaliers, armed with nothing but steel weaponry. Marth ain't got shit on 'em, they're the true heroes of Archanea. Them and their unparalleled fashion sense. Seriously, I want a jacket like that. 1 minute ago, Dayni said: Y'know, he kinda reminds me of a certain other old man who's giving advice to young lords I've mentioned before.

Not a very good unit, late joiner, in one of the least played games in the series (not quite Gaiden or Thracia, but it's up there), old man, no official artwork of any kind... The deck was stacked against him. As Acacia said, though, it's not dislike, he's just forgotten by everyone. Except me, because I'm a damn weirdo.

He does have his Kris support, which isn't the worst Kris support in existence, plus his involvement in the Dragoon chronicle which is pretty good. It's more than some others get. Like Vyland.
