judgral alts? good joke. IS hates judgralFiora is a sword flier, so that's neat. Caeda and Palla were both the only 3/4 options, and they have issues (Caeda: low attack, but double effective damage makes her adequate enoguh; Palla: prf gem sword ew).
But, banner was about as boring as I expected--but when you're gay, waifubait banners are a snoozefest and the lone manservice is Wolt who is way too young for my tastes. Maybe Summer Festival will finally give Jugdral alts--dancing Lewyn and Silvia would be neat. But, I could see Summer Festival the lone seasonal banner on the chopping block solely to make room for more 3H banners, with a proper performing arts sequel in September.
I guess Tibarn getting whacked in Round 1 was worth it after all. Tibarn vs Mia would've been a good final, though.
New banner looks cool, was surprised to see Wolt, didn't recognize him. Summer Lyn is like the biggest bait in awhile. Just Lyn alone might do it, but then they gave her that bow and Sturdy Impact...
Of all of the characters they could have chosen, we got a twink as the only male unit and another fucking Lynn.
Come on, IS. Do fucking better.
So what about having one character like helbindi, one like xander, one like woltWhile it's going against their interests to include male characters in these banners at all, it's worth noting that young boys are far more popular generally as a category than characters like Helbindi, whose presence on the previous banner was a massive outlier. Having summer banners that are 50% characters like him and 50% women would be a massive misreading of their market.

I'm all for seeing obscure characters get some love, so I'm happy with ursula, but I'd certainly swap out lilina for a summer Lucina... And someone had my hopes up with the silhouettesYou want my money IS, then give me a Lucina Summer alt., otherwise no dice.
Tied, until brave

What's with Wolt's bow having 14 Mt. and range of 1? Is this new?

To be fair, from perusing similar gacha games with the samish fanbase, I don't think shotas are that popular at all. Incidentally, the female fans I know fainted when Summer Lucio was shown this year in granblue and (constantly top popular male character in granblue) and he definitely isn't a shota.
I am straight and I am tired of this bs since last year, but it is hard to convince other peopleIt would be super cool if some of the enlightened straight dudes who play FEH would back up their queer friends and tell IntSys (and literally every other game studio ever) that they don't need 95%+ of the content in the game geared towards them all the time. That they can live with one less bikini babe/seasonal winter "armor" unit a banner so we can get some actual summer speedos/seasonal dong action. That they don't necessarily need a waifu harem army to keep their dicks hard all the time. That they can confirm the presence of a penis on a man (as opposed to a Ken doll) and not feel the need to pour bleach on their eyes.
That would be really neat.
It really does feel like they're scared or hesitant to put more men in shorts/seasonal wear for respective banners. We got 2 brand new summer banners, and both of them only had 1 male character each which baffles me. They can put waifu alts in the game just like always, but they should also make an effort to put in more male characters for these banners too. It's not that hard. Also they really felt the compelling need to add yet another Lyn alt. I like her too, but geez.It would be super cool if some of the enlightened straight dudes who play FEH would back up their queer friends and tell IntSys (and literally every other game studio ever) that they don't need 95%+ of the content in the game geared towards them all the time.

at least its not the colourless F!ytiki that simultaneously gets +4 to all stats and 2 mov.Ever have one of those weeks where you wanna bash your head into a wall after failing a no-death Arena Assault clear over and over again? Well this is one of those weeks.
Literally everyone and their grandma are running +10 L!Tikis, which I'm now realizing is one of the hardest units to consistently counter when you're forced to fight freakin' 7 of them in a row.
WE NEED DRAGON-BREAKER SKILLS.
I don't care if it negatively impacts the meta. I don't care if it makes whales cry in their sleep. I don't care if y'all think I'm crazy for wanting it. Before the servers get shut down on that fateful day in the not-so-distant future, dragon-breaker skills will come, and it will be glorious.

you should have a bunch of green TA users for AA anyways
thankfully my julia and deirdre can deal with entire dragon teams on their own
triangle adept on everything, and spread out your blessings evenly. thats the key to AATbh, I'd actually greatly prefer Young Fallen Tiki instead. At least I've got five anti-dragon sword users and Julia to counter her.
My Julia, Nino, Raven, and Fallen M!Robin can (usually) handle L!Tiki, but after them it gets sketchy. All of my other greens have either insufficient attack power to ORKO, are too slow to double, or don't have enough resistance to survive her Bold Fighter. I could put Close Counter on H!Henry but I'd rather not. Deirdre is one of my most-wanted units but I've never been able to pull her. :/
I actually just got my no-death AA clear taken care of (and demolished my previous score in the process, yay), so just one more week of this and we should start seeing less of the smol robed dragon terror (I hope).
triangle adept on everything, and spread out your blessings evenly. thats the key to AA
everyone i dont really care about and some pitybreakers get triangle adept and whatever breaker skill
id argue AA is the easiest mode to rank high in in the game
oh yeah i definitely had trouble with Surtr. that prf + c skill + wary fighter is a brutal combo. thankfully most people didnt run DC so he was pretty easy to wittle down with red magesI normally don't have much trouble with AA and can usually get my run done on the first attempt, but I don't think I've had this much trouble with a unit in this mode since Surtr invaded.
And yeah, you can never have enough breaker skills. If L!Tiki gives me more of a hassle next week, I'll have to toss TA3 on some units and hope for the best...

i hadnt gotten use out of Halloween dorcas with wary fighter until she came out lol.Yep, that and TA3 with a helping of Axebreaker makes short work of him. (Also shout-out to Tobin who is in fact not useless despite popular claims. lol)
Problem with L!Tiki is she has DC built-in and no breaker skill to worry about. :/
I am straight and I am tired of this bs since last year, but it is hard to convince other people
Besides I find insulting that IS thinks that I need to be attracted towards a character to pull for them, most of my favorite characters are male and even most of my favorite female characters arent because I feel attracted to them.
The biggest obstacle is getting people who aren't necessarily affected directly by this (ie. most straight male FEH players) to get involved. All players lament the stagnation and "sameness" of the game, but if you're part of the demographic that's being catered directly to, those people hardly feel the need to actually do something about it. It generally doesn't even cross their minds because they're not used to having to ask/fight for anything related to gaming. (Just look at how many people gloss over these conversations in this very thread.)It really does feel like they're scared or hesitant to put more men in shorts/seasonal wear for respective banners.

Except it isnt? We dont know how if it works with panic or not, anyway it is much better than things like Anna's or Takumi'sfioras art is pretty nice and we got some pretty amazing seals.
shame about Luke's refine though... it has got to be the worst in the game
it likely does, but the problem is that luke isnt actually panicking much nowadays. and his terrible speed and only passable defense means that +6 wont actually help much on enemy phase. i guess hes a pretty strong brave sword on player phase if he can get death blow and the effect activated, but id argue keaton and sword reinhardt are just straight up better with less investmentExcept it isnt?
