Midori’s name literally means Green how is she not a green unit lol.
I guess because there's so few red bows IS wants more but yeah this is the one time where I actually wish we'd gotten another green bow unit.
And we still don't have a blue bow in the normal summoning pool iirc
duh, those are for Awakening royals only
And Halloween Niles
And Summer Lyn
I wish she was a Cav if going to be a red archer though.
We now have three Infantry red archers, and no other movement types. We have one green Infantry archer (Legendary), one flying (seasonal), three Cavs in the main pools. For blue we have one flier and one armour (seasonals), and two Infantry (Legendary).
Like damn I wish these were a little more balanced. If she was even just a green Infantry archer in the permanent pool that'd be cool, or a colour movement combo that doesn't exists (blue bow Cav, green how armour, red how anything but Infantry)
It would be cool if she was a cav and rode that puppet thing from the mechanist class.
I mean I think there's a chance they might make her an armor since the apothecary class she's in is basically an archer that dumps spd for def and picnics prove that backpacks = armor for IS.
Isn’t it only Igrene? Or did they add more?
New Years Anna!
i mean it's not as if we're rolling in green bows either, we only have 4 and 3 of them are cavs
Does it help the fact that her Japanese name is Midoriko?
...Ok now that I think about it: what the fuck were they thinking that removing a syllable was so important? The same thing with Subaki just...removing the silent “T” at the beginning. Did the localization team though we are all dumb people who can’t pronounce these “complicated” names?
To be fair it's not a silent 'T' (you still pronounce it very slightly), but yeah it is very stupid how they changed some of the names. They also changed Tsukuyomi to Hayato and Kisaragi to Kiragi, which was also weird.
The fact that they changed the beautifully japanese Yuugiri to the spanish Reina, but kept things like Yukimura and Orochi will never cease to piss me off.
spanish Reina
You know Reina is also a Japanese name right?
It's still awkward and dumb to write "terodactyl" even if the "P" is silent.
Midoriko
That likely translates to "Green Child", doesn't it?
I know 子 means kid, so yes?
Did the localization team though we are all dumb people who can’t pronounce these “complicated” names?
Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: No point typing that out, we're too dumb for it.
Yes. Fates localization was bad.
Also kazahana, or ‘wind flower’
The same people that brought you Green Python and Blue Forsyth
That's the point! Unexpected reversal! (ᗒᗨᗕ)
Seriously though, if she'd been another green archer I would have screamed.
When was the last time we had a Fates New Heroes banner?
feels like forever tbh
February last year, so it's been a while. Last one before that was December 2018
February last year, so it's been a while. Last one before that was December 2018
Actually, it was November 2018 prior to the Fates beasts. December 2018 didn't have any New Heroes banners at all.
Wasnt Adrift on december? Or thats the november one?
Adrift was in November.
Fates and awakening get so little
It’s all about FE7 and FE:SD tbh
Sounds like heavy sarcasm, but honestly even though those 2 games have by far the biggest amount of character (61 for awakening, 89 for fates with soon 4 more), like there is only a gap of 12 u it with Fe7 (49 units vs 61 for awakening).
So it is not as bad as it used to be of how much more awakening and fates used to get compared to the rest as other games very slowly catch-up.
it is a joke, right?
Edit: ah yes, downvoting for pointing out that saying the two most represented games aren't getting enough representation must be some joke, Awakening-fates fan circlejerking at its finest.
Fates Beasts in Feb.
Fates was the game we hadn't had a banner for the longest time. Tellius now holds that title, as their last banner was during april last year
I think late February last year
Kitsune and wolfskins
Beast last Feb, Adrift Before that, and Ophelia’s banner before that
Considering IS’s rush to add a ton of beast units and adrift being a banner of almost all alts...
And that's a good thing.
Instead of having Special Heroes Banner bringing more Fates every fucking two weeks.
The way they handled banners since July 2019 is honestly really good.
feels like forever tbh
Never thought I’d hear this in 2018 lol
Back when we got Ophelia iirc
Rinkah looks so beefy... I'm so glad they didn't do my girl dirty.
Also my daughter Midori is finally here!! I wasn't expecting her at all, I'm so so happy!!
Her muscles are very defined. I don't even mean it in a thirsty way, it is actually impressive.
[removed]
I had zero interest in a fates banner, but that Rinkah is making me sweat a little. But my boy Forrest will be in the 3* pool after the banner ends so that's my highlight.
considering rinkah's usability in fates, I'd expect her in the 3-4* pool after this lol
Forrest is the demote. We can see that in the trailer.
well yeah, but you would expect rinkah to be, based on how good she was in fates.
What, you don't like offensive units having no offensive stats?
think she has DC mate, no way she's demoting
bro what? haven't seen the feh channel yet but that's wack
She most likely has DC somewhere, a slaying effect somewhere, and a breath effect somewhere. Possibly Wrath, and super high defense. And what appears to be a prf weapon.
I know, I'm not talking about what she has in heroes. I'm saying if they were faithful to her performance in Fates like they were with many gen 1 units, she would have 23 attack and a killer axe and maybe defiant attack/defense, lmao
The girl is jaaacckked
I hope she and Dwyer can also join FEH soon ;-;
Dwyer is my most wanted Fates unit now :(
She's now my most wanted child now that Midori's in.
^Wait, ^shit, ^I ^forgot ^about ^Sophie. ^Okay, ^well, ^I ^want ^both.
I'm here for you man. I'm a Mitama stan for life.
god bless you.
Mitama is the only child unit I liked in Fates, despite the pain of pairing Azama with anyone. Maybe someday...
I’m sorry Felicia
he’s such a dick lol
I paired him with Setsuna. I thought it would be funny to pair him with the only person his scathing wit rude insults are lost on.
I hoped when I realized the last unit would probably be colorless :(
Mitama gang is not only you. Please let our sleepy poet in.
But I'm kinda glad she isn't on this banner because I have no orbs
eternal suffering
TFW when the Mitama gang is probably bigger than the god, please no Mitama gang
Midori has some sort of close counter because that green axe initiated
And rinkah distant counter
And Rinkah has DC + some sort of Breath effect or cooldown acceleration (goes from 2 charge to 0 after the archer attacks, yeets them with Bonfire). Might be tied to health.
Rinkah comes with DC, Breath and Slaying effect. If I had to guess I feel like she might have Fierce Breath or a new combo Breath (Sturdy Breath?). Guess we'll have to wait for that trailer to see what she has.
inb4 Fast Breath Hyperventilation
Interestingly the turn begun with Rinkah's Hp decrease to 30.
After browsing every map that matches the one from Rinkah, I manage to find Book 4 Chapter 1:Part 4(Lunatic)
Edit:Blue Archer has 30 Def add Rinkah's damage 42 we land to 72 Divided by 1.2(Damage Multiplier from Triangle) equals to 60 Atk
I'm really hoping it'd be plain old CC instead of Close Ward or prf weapon, it needs to be on more units!
After all the wifi battles, it feels wrong that Midori isn't a ninja.
I was hoping they’d use her to make use of the mechanist class. I thought it was so cool! So I made her one
Mechanist is probably the only class in the series that would perfectly translate to Dagger Cavalry, bit of a missed opportunity...
I mean for the off chance we get a Yukimura GHB, he'd 100% be that class. We still don't have a free dagger cav so I am hoping it's gonna be him.
Yeah. Merchant (or whatever it's called) is her canonical class, but it's far from her best. That said, when her logical weapon types are bow, lance, dagger, or sword, coloured bow probably isn't the least interesting option.
Pls let Kiragi be the free unit, they added Ryoma and Xander's kids together, why not Leo's and Takumi's?
Edit: not to mention he would be the only royal kid left if they didn't add him since Shigure and both Kana's are also in
I hope he is a green bow. You could make a team of second gen royals.
That would be nice but we already have 2 free green bows
Kiragi could be nice if he was infantry since currently the only competition he'd have in that niche is Lyn
Please no more green bows. Please be colorless or different color.
One thing I only just realized is that you can make a full team of dagger royals covering all the colours. Elise is Red, Ryoma is Blue, Hinoka Green, and Xander/Takumi for colourless.
Kiragi is great but hear me out... Reina GHB
As much as I would love to see Reina, Kiragi would be better for the gender balance and I would not need to try to summon him.
I'm really hoping for this too, fingers crossed!
*Sees Lilith*
POGGERS
I expected her to be part of a Duo unit with Corrin at some point.
Corrin deals the damage, Lilith takes the hits?
too soon?
FUCKING RINKAH IS HEEEEEEERE! I AM NOT READY!!!
Edit: AND HOLY FUCK, SHE'S FUCKING RIPPED.
AND YOU CAN GRAB HER WITH A MIN 200 ORBS
Which would be great, IF I HAD THEM!
3 rare girls, 1 guy demote again.
Since they introduced the whole 4-star focus thing, the demotes have been guys 5/5 times. And of the 5-star focuses we have got 3 guys and 12 girls. Real subtle.
They can keep doing it for all I care, being able to +10 my favorite units easier makes the shaft worth it
I mean to be fair I don't think they're trying to be subtle
And 2 of the three guys were on the Valentines banner. The 3H, Spring, and now Fates banners don't have a single guy who'll be a 5* exclusive.
the TMS banner was also all girls, with the unit put into the free unit slot having no new fodder skills. at least lord status got Itsuki a prf, so he wasn't completely bodied by IS's vendetta against their male characters
it seems like even numbered years for this game are just cursed for male units.
Forrest is the demote, so I can get my son to an easy +10 some day! YAY!
I hope he doesn‘t suck. IS has a way with free staff units...
I hope he doesn‘t suck. IS has a way with free staff units...
I am sorry for your loss <.< stats were already revealed in the video
they showed his stats. 39/32/26/19/35
Right there with ya
I know! My boy. I’ve never had a +10 5* focus so I see this as an absolute win
No Mozu
I sleep. Suppose there's a chance she'll be a TT at least, which would be the best case scenario for me anyway.
Very happy for Midori, but I was really hoping she'd get in as a Mechanist.
I’ve been waiting since day 1 for Mozu and the TT is my last chance of hope
More likely than not it'll be a GHB, sadly. I think forging bonds are usually (always?) paired with GHBs instead of TTs.
Yeah I'd have reinstalled to grab Mozu. It was even a Revelation banner so I figured route-neutral characters like Mozu had a good chance. Eh well, Rinkah's been long overdue too.
LILITH IS SOOOO CUTEEE
MY BOY FORREST
LOOKIN LIKE A DEMOTE
GIVE ME ALL THE HEALERS
He's the 4-star focus, so he'll demote after the banner.
He
Fuck. i can't keep doing this (i never really recruited children in Fates, so i didnt know).
Shame you never recruited him, he is literally one of the best characters in Fates.
Rinkah has some form of DC, and Breath effect. Maybe even Slaying too since Bonfire was a 2CD, she got attacked, and she had it.
Midori also seems to have Close Counter. If not it might be in her bow which who knows if it is a Prf or not
It honestly wouldn't be surprising if they used a Fates banner and two fan-favourite characters to finally power creep DC and CC.
It’s almost a little weird that Lilith is on the banner and is the only one of the 4 that can canonically DC, and yet she doesn’t have it. (Or at least we don’t know yet since she initiates in the trailer)
I wonder who the free unit is...
I really hope it isn’t Hans
I'm not too worried. Since Lilith is here, has there ever been an update where they introduced more than one NPC at the same time?
The only one I can think of is a long, long time ago, when they introduced both Legion and Clarisse as GHB
EDIT : I was a fool
Woo Rinkah finally. I've been waiting so long for her. Either she comes with DC (with breath effect on weapon like SY!Tiki) or has it as a conditional innate effect like Caineghis/Osian.
Reminds me that I have to finish my Rinkah solo run in Fates Rev.
they made Forrest a trash demote so this banner is CANCELLED to me
Ironic, healers can heal other units but not themselves.
Martyr??
I love Fates, but the royals have gotten the game a really bad reputation in the FEH community… I'm glad the ban on Fates characters is finally over, maybe we can get Reina eventually!
There was never a ban on Fates characters. The last dedicated banner was Feb last year, which is the length of time that many of the games have had between their banners, while we still have received the odd seasonal here and there.
Charlotte stans on suicide watch
i don't even care about charlotte but I feel so bad for charlotte fans right now lmao
I mean, charlotte fans got a variant of her in the first year of the games release. there's still plenty of units without any kind of representation over 3 years in right?
She was cursed with pikomaro art, so she'd have been better off not being in the game at that point.
what? her art is amazing
Nyx. :(
Charlotte is my favorite fates character and my long standing most wanted hero to be permanently added to the game (Bernie and Lysithea were on that list but just got off it).
Right now i'm just hoping shes the GHB character and not garbage, otherwise it'll probably be another year till we get a new Fates banner
Was the grand hero revealed? THERES HOPE
Lol it's probably Hans or Iago
Faceless Meta.
No wait, this is Revelation. Do literally nothing and she'll cease to exist.
I hate this comment. Stop
:(
Get ze Flammenwerfer.
Maybe Arete or Sumeragi? The Revelation logo appeared.
I actually thinking just straight up Anankos. Or, oh god, evil Gunter
I think those 2 would be better suited for banners. Hell maybe it's Fuga
Or Scarlet, since she has plot relevance in Revelations.
Naga I hate Fates villains. I really hope we get another playable character (Scarlet PLEASE) for the GHB instead of one of them.
IAGO PLEASE. I WANT MY GREASY BOY.
[deleted]
You can't leave Alts only club unless you are Pegasus Knight
Nyx and Orochi are my two most wanted heroes...ah well.
I am excited for Rinkah, and I am found of Midori, Forrest and Lilith as well
I still can't understand why Orochi is so unpopular, she's one of my most wanted characters as well ❤️
enjoy your red and green tome users with near identical statlines to nearly every other tome user before them. if you're lucky they'll be powercreep units.
I don’t care about the meta, I just want my favorite characters
sorry, that came across as weirdly passive aggressive for some reason. I was trying to criticize IS giving every unit the same statlines for the past few years.
Benny fan here. Count me in on the suicide watch
Dwyer fan here.
:(
I knew I wasn't the only one!
The minute Rinkah showed up I just knew :(
Maybe the GHB! Please IS
Fam I got Rinkah so I cannot be upset.
Every time someone popped up I hoped for Charlotte but...... sighs one day
I am
we are sad in the extreme but happy about no color sharing. Also we smile and wave at Rinkah fans. We will continue to wait for blond beserker
The suffering of Lanabot continues
I guess that's one more "painful truth" I expected (no Charlotte before 2021 at the earliest).
