Due to a miscount, apparently if we continue the way we have, Horace will be short 1 unit! That would suck. So this draft will only have 6 units for each player, with a way too many amount of 3 units to be banned. Sorry for the inconvenience, but thems the breaks.

Prologue- 2/2 turns

So basically the simple 2 turn clear that has become synonymous with FE8 drafting. I believe the enemies MAY have 1 or 2 more HP, but fuck if that makes a difference. Also, a good Eirika level up.

Chapter 1- 6/8 turns

Thanks to her STR proc from the last chapter, Eirika cleanly ORKO's the first fighter. Unfortunately, due to Japanese HM giving enemies a few more HP or DEF or something to work with, Eirika can't KO that one soldier! Phooey, ruins my 5 turn clear right there. I GUESS I could've used Seth, but I honestly forgot he was free until he got attacked, I was like, "Fuck, gonna have to restart if I don't want to take a penalty", then remembered he was free.

also note Gilliam's speed is becoming alarmingly close to his strength.

Chapter 2- 6/14 turns

This chapter was mainly a playground to level up Ross. Because Garcia is a TOOL, I was forced to use Vanessa to help him kill that one measly archer. Also I had to RN Abuse once because Eirika would get hit by 2 ~35%s and die, and that's bullshit. Also because I can't read Japanese, I though Rescue was Heal and accidently picked up Ross instead of giving Moulder the easy EXP. God drats.

Chapter 3- 6/20 turns

While in normal drafts breaking those 2 walls tends to be a PITA due to lack of units who are actually strong (one of the few points in which Gilliam is useful and in which Garcia shows to be the top of his class), Seth and my high number of early game units makes that a breeze. Throughout this chapter, I do normally stupid things just so that Vanessa can get enough EXP, because god drats if it's easy to get her EXP in axeland. The rest of the map I progress through normally, albeit not using Seth as much as I could, but probably shouldn't. Babza presented a unique challenge of...er, nothing. He was a chump. Seems like he has a lot more avoid in this version though...

Chapter 4- 5/25 turns

The first monster chapter is the first chapter where you can get a whole bundle of EXP, ANNNNNNNNNND...I gave like half of it to Seth? My reasoning? My other units would've taken too long, and I really need the extra turns I can get for chapters like 15 or 19, where I might stall things out a bit. Also, it's not like I wasn't concerned with the EXP gain. I just had my other units take the left side of the map because none of them can really competently ORKO anything on this map (if I'd gotten Franz/Garcia, perhaps Seth wouldn't be used as much).

I had Vanessa attack that stag on turn 1 and positioned her so that both enemies would attack her and Eirika would be able to kill the monster whilst being in range of the monster that attacked her from turn 1. Eirika needs the snag broken 1 turn sooner, because Ross can't solo all of the Revenants by his lonesome self, although his 4 speed means he can actually do something besides meaningless chip. If I had Lute drafted, I would've had Vanessa recruit her on turn 2, but alas, that is not the case. Did I mention Seth was awesome? Thank god he's free.

Chapter 5- 6/31 turns

Oh dear god. Chapter 5 is really the first chapter where the game says, "Remember permadeath?" and it's a fucking pain in the ass to complete in drafts...erm, not in this one though! Seth makes this map easier, and I manage to get pretty much everything I need for the Guilding Ring to promote Moulder. The statboosters will also be helpful, with the Skill Book going to Ross and the Dracoshield going to Eirika.

Nothing in this chapter was not preplanned. Seth goes to take care of the figher and...um, leave a kill for Ross because they'll trail behind later. He's also close enough to be able to stop the bandits on turn 2, which are bar none, the hardest enemies on this map and only Seth can ORKO them, barring a blessed Franz. I have, Eirika and Vanessa help finish off the initial onslaught of enemies, which ordinarily wouldn't be possible because the archer would kill Vanessa, but thanks Seth. He not only kills the archer but also draws Joshua closer for recruitment. I also try to feed Joshua some EXP, but as you can see, it gets a little hairy later on with his poor durability (gets 2HKOed by bandits).

Fucking...oh wait, you just handed me a longbow on a silverbow wielding platter.

in case you missed the hint, Innes, and that completes the draft selection, with Duracell, Gwahahazla, and Canwreck banned. Good luck gais!

so cool story guys

I forgot to buy a restore staff before Father and Son, so I took 14 turns!

Barriered up everyone, and had Seth dodge all the berserk staves (thankfully)

Gerik ate a sleep staff early on, but he still got quite a bit of exp.

Agh! Where have I been? Another EXP draft has popped up for fuck's sake! And it's an FE8 draft to boot! Argh, can't let them finish before me! It would be an insult to my drafting prowess!...or somethingsomething, I dunno.

I actually had gotten all the way to Chapter 9, but I dunno, guess I was too lazy to upload the videos. So I'll do that shortly! Also note that I added descriptions to all of my previous videos in case you're interested in knowing what crazy thoughts pervaded my head.

Chapter 6- 6/48 turns

So this chapter wasn't as hard with my man Seth here to help the team out. So firstly everyone goes north, well except Seth who soloes the rest of the enemies. This chapter helped my non Seth units buffer their levels a bit before taking on the boss. There were no particular moments in ingenuity, and the biggest thing of note is that I gained some quite nice levels. Vanessa missing an 85% was quite unexpected and different from my dry run, so I had to wing it and hope Ross didn't miss an 86%. Oh, and Ross ended up promoting just in time for Chapter 7! Oh, and what the fuck, Novala now has a fuckton of HP and more competent DEF.

Chapter 7- 5/53 turns

Thanks to some awesome rescue shenanigans, I manage to complete this chapter in a short amount of time, get the Energy Ring, and in general be a boss. This required some VERY specific strategy, as I couldn't allow Colm to get attacked seeing as how he's not drafted. This strategy required Pirate Ross who has more MOVE on the water to rescue drop Eirika, so thankfully I promoted him sooner. I also give Vanessa and Joshua some much needed EXP as Seth and Eirika go for the broke. As for the rest...well, watch the video yourself to find out! Murray's even weaker in Japanese FE8, with slightly lower stats IIRC and no Javelin.
