Jave Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) So the way A Hero Rises works this year. For 12 days, each day we get to vote for our favorite version of the 12 Lords featured in Fire Emblem Engage, and then a Summon event will happen with the 12 versions of the Lords most voted, where every player gets a free summon. https://engage.campaigns.fire-emblem-heroes.com/ Day 1: Marth Day 2: Celica Day 3: Sigurd Day 4: Leif Day 5: Roy Day 6: Lyn Day 7: Eirika Day 8: Ike Day 9: Micaiah Day 10: Lucina Day 11: F!Corrin Day 12: M!Byleth Each poll gets added every day, and they last until the end of the run.

Morgan--Grandmaster Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) Here are my votes Marth: Legacied Hero Celica: Queen of Valentia Sigurd: Destined Duo Leif: Destined Scions Roy: Blazing Lion Lyn: Wind's Embrace Eirika: Beach Restorer Ike: Close-Knit Siblings Micaiah: Radiant Queen Lucina: Future Fondness Corrin: Child of Dusk Byleth: The Fódlan Star Edited December 12, 2022 by Morgan--Grandmaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) I think they all last until the 25th, it's just that a new one opens each day. Interesting event. I'm not missing any versions of Marth, Leif, or Byleth, so I don't have much stake in those, but it'd be nice to pick up one or more others. Looks like the notable contenders are: Marth: Duo or Brave Celica: Ascended (maybe Legendary) Sigurd: Legendary (maybe Duo) Leif: Harmonized Roy: Harmonized (maybe Legendary) Lyn: Flame (maybe Duo) Eirika: Duo, Brave, Summer Ike: Duo Micaiah: Duo, Legendary, Summer Lucina: Valentine's Corrin: Duo, Halloween (maybe Legendary) Byleth: Legendary Marth, Eirika, Micaiah, and Corrin seem like the biggest toss-ups. Legendary Sigurd and Micaiah would be great for me, as well as Celica and Roy but those are less likely. If we guess the most likely colors for everyone except Marth and Eirika, that's 2 red (Sigurd/Ike), 1 blue (Lyn), 4 green (Roy/Lucina/Corrin/Byleth), and 3 colorless (Celica/Leif/Micaiah).

Tybrosion Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) Why did IS even bother putting this to a vote? For pretty much all of these characters, their latest alt is going to win easy. The only ones where I can see an older alt winning are Marth (Legendary or Duo wins instead of CYL), Eirika (CYL wins instead of Summer) and maybe Micaiah (Bride or Legendary wins instead of Summer). Edit: I forgot about Summer Micaiah like a dumbass. Edited December 12, 2022 by Tybrosion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legendary actually isn't Micaiah's latest version. But yeah, a lot of these seem pretty skewed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricaofRenais Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Well of course the latest versions will probably win which makes sense, though I would honestly like legendary Micaiah but that's me. Oh well at least there will be several I don't have on this if it goes like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) Free Godlike Reflexes is all I really care about. If the banner has a spark (which it probably will), I'll probably grab Valentine Lucina for Savvy Fighter to give to Rearmed Robin. I'm hoping Halloween Corrin wins her category since I'd like to have another good blue unit to have as a pity breaker, especially with how much she evaded me during her original banner. Do we know if backpacks count or if Masked Marth counts for Lucina? That would add 2 more options for Lucina (Masked Marth and Harmonized Mia) and 1 more option for Byleth (Duo Sothis). Byleth's options kind of don't exist otherwise. Here's a breakdown of options and colors (likely frontrunners are bolded): Marth: Red: Base, Legendary, Young, Brave Colorless: Duo Celica: Red: Base, Fallen, Brave Green: Legendary Colorless: Ascended Sigurd: Red: Base, Duo, Legendary Leaf: Red: Base Colorless: Legendary, Harmonized Roy: Red: Base, Brave, Legendary Green: Harmonized Colorless: Valentine Lyn: Red: Base Blue: Valentine, Summer, Festival Green: Legendary Colorless: Bride, Brave, Ninja Eirika: Red: Base, Tome, Legendary, Duo Blue: Brave Green: Summer Colorless: Winter Ike: Red: Base, Legendary, Valentine, Fallen, Duo Green: Brave Micaiah: Red: Festival Blue: Base Green: Brave Colorless: Duo, Legendary, Summer Lucina: Red: Base Blue: Spring, Brave, Legendary Green: Valentine Corrin: Blue: Base, Summer, Halloween Green: Dream, Duo Colorless: Fallen, Legendary Byleth: Red: Base Green: Legendary And by color, only counting frontrunners (characters in multiple colors in italics): Red: Sigurd: Duo, Legendary Eirika: Duo Ike: Duo Blue: Lyn: Festival Eirika: Brave Corrin: Halloween Green: Roy: Harmonized Eirika: Summer Lucina: Valentine Corrin: Duo Byleth: Legendary Colorless: Marth: Duo Celica: Ascended Leaf: Harmonized Micaiah: Legendary, Summer Edited December 12, 2022 by Ice Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Emblem Fan Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Interesting. I have to wonder if this is an actual replacement for the usual A Hero Rises, or just something in addition to it. Either way, this'll be a great way to get merges and/or brand new units, there's a few in the selection here that I still haven't summoned yet. I think my votes will be... Marth: Prince of Light Celica: Queen of Valentia (would be new) Sigurd: Fated Holy Knight (would be new) Leif: Destined Scions (would be new) Roy: Blazing Lion, or Roy: Blazing Bachelors Lyn: Blazing Whirlwind Eirika: Beach Restorer (would be new) Ike: Close-Knit Siblings (would be new) Micaiah: Radiant Queen, or Micaiah: Wavecrest Maiden Lucina: Future Fondness (would be new) Corrin: Starry Seer (would be new) Byleth: The Fodlan Star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jave Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) BTW, this tweet makes it sound that everyone can pull one of the 12 winners of their choice (Essentially like a free CYL pick), in addition to having a banner with the 12 winners as focus units. @Ice Dragon Duo backpacks and Masked Marth don't count. The site in the link I posted in the OP has banner-style artwork for all characters and those aren't among the choices.

The site in the link I posted in the OP has banner-style artwork for all characters and those aren't among the choices. Huh, it looks like Grail units as a whole aren't available. I suppose that makes sense since they aren't going to be on a banner, after all. Sucks that we can't get Duo Sothis to pad stocks on blue even more since Byleth literally only has two options. I've edited my list. EDIT: It looks like the voting format works like this: One character opens up for voting each day, with voting open for all characters through the last day. You get 1 vote per day. It looks like once you make a vote for a character, you can no longer make another vote for the same character (including other alts). The last point is a guess, but is really the only way any of this would make sense based on the first two points. So it looks like even if you miss a day, you can still go back and add a vote for someone other than the character that opens up that day at the cost of not being able to vote for a later character.

Lemmy Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Part of me would like to merge up bridal and valentine lyn, but my votes will be predictable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Not an overly whelming event but I'll take a Duo Sigurd or Harmonic Leif I guess. Nothing else seems to be at stake really so no point in me voting for anything but Duo Sigurd over his Legendary version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercakete Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) I don't really see much of a point in voting but I might anyway. More invested players (I'm fairly casual, but serious about collecting my favorites) are going to probably choose good units, so I can just ride that tailwind. Edit: Hmmm for Marth... His brave version gives great fodder. But his kid version is the cutest one so I chose him. Edited December 12, 2022 by Mercakete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Wait, Halloween Corrin F is the blue one? Huh, I'd thought she was green. Guess they didn't want a repeat of Adrift. If there's a spark, that'll probably get me to actually pull on the banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't the regular AHR start early in the year? This seems to be a bonus AHR for Engage cross-promotion. It's great that we're getting a free pick (and surprisingly consumer-friendly for this time of year, but a 12 person banner is going to be a nightmare, especially since there's no guarantee of color-balancing. Also I agree that the newest version is likely to win for most of these, but I don't think that's a bad idea since they're all really powerful units 🙂 And also: those posters! Yes please to all of them! Edited December 12, 2022 by DefyingFates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diovani Bressan Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 I think no one is surprised by this, but I tihnk it's valid to be commented: you can't vote on the same character twice. You can't vote for Marth like yesterday, and then vote for Marth again today.Once you pick a Marth, that's it. You can't vote for any other Marth... which makes total sense. Anyway, Celica: Valentia's Hope got my vote today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 I've already pulled two Ascended Celicas off-focus after getting her on her debut banner, but there really is no alternative pick so hey. ...even if the look in her eye makes me deeply uncomfortable inside.

I was never going to pick either Celica as the freebie for this event (as above I'm after Duo Sigurd or Harmonic Leif), but fortunately I've had a +1 Legendary Celica forever, so I'm fairly well positioned even if she gets a transformative revamp. I do prefer the Legendary art slightly, but then I think I prefer all three other versions in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tybrosion Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Predictably, my ballot was almost entirely just [insert latest alt here] for each character. The only exceptions were Ballroom Sigurd & Deirdre and Legendary Roy, because Sigurd and Roy are the only two characters here who I do not have every alt of (minus no longer having Bride Lyn and Winter Eirika). I do not have any faith in Legendary Roy winning over Groom Roy though, so I don't know why I even bothered there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 My votes: Duo Marth Ascended Celica Duo Sigurd Harmonized Leaf Harmonized Roy Flame Lyn Duo Eirika Duo Ike Legendary Micaiah Valentine Lucina Halloween Corrin Legendary Byleth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmy Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Outside of the armored duo of Marth, I picked newest unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
