Heroes: 2nd Anniversary Heroes Banner and “War of the Tacticians” Voting Gauntlet banners are live

First and foremost, the “Summon Select Heroes” event is now live!

Myrrh: Spooky Monster, Azura: Vallite Songstress, Lyn: Lady of the Wind, and Duma: God of Strength are all available for the free summon. Which you will get is completely random, and they will also come with assets and flaws.

Pick up your free random Hero, then the banner will become a regular banner with a 3% appearance rate on the four focus Heroes. The banner begins today, and will end on the 4th of March, 6:59am UTC. Be sure to pick up your free Hero before the end!

With the 2nd Anniversary hype dying down (was it really alive?), we now have a Voting Gauntlet to look forward to. Enter the “War of the Tacticians!”

Two banners have gone live today, with 7 of the Heroes participating spread between them. The Voting Gauntlet will begin on the 28th of February, 7:00am UTC, and will end on the 6th of March, 3:59am UTC.

Set A (on the left) features only 5-star exclusive Heroes, while Set B has two 3-4-Star Heroes, one 4-5-Star Hero, and one 5-Star exclusive Hero. Going green statistically has a better chance of granting a 5-Star Hero in both banners for your free summon, if you have no intention of using Orbs here. The banners end on the 6th of March, 6:59am UTC.

Heroes: Panne Grand Hero Battle is live

Today, the Grand Hero Battle for a new Hero is  available for you to challenge.

Panne: Proud Taguel, from Awakening, is now available for you to claim. She’s a blue Beast unit with Cavalry movement (meaning she can also receive Cavalry buffs) and can transform into a killer bunny when not adjacent to any units, or when she’s adjacent to allied beasts/dragons.

She comes with Def Smoke 3 at 4-Star rarity, and Chill Spd 3 at 5-Star. As usual, you can pick up one 3-Star and two 4-Star variants of her by completing all three difficulties of the GHB.

The GHB begins today, and will be available until the 5th of March, 6:59am UTC.

“Fire Emblem World”: Daily Characters + Weekly Songs Round 3

Another minor update since it’s the weekend! Like previously, we’ll be covering the upcoming schedule for the rotating characters and songs on the Japanese Fire Emblem World website.

If you missed the memo, the website–which serves as a Fire Emblem hub–was updated near the end of 2018 and features a different character on the front page every day, plus a different song every week.

Last time, we covered the schedule for 28th January up to 24th February 2019. However, time stops for no man and 25th February is almost upon us. Recently, the schedule was updated for another 3 weeks, so here we go…

From 25th February to 3rd March, the website will be showcasing Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. The featured characters will be Valbar, Leon, Kamui, Alm, Celica, Faye and Conrad. The song of the week will be “March to Deliverance”.

Heroes: “Heroes with Blazing Light” banner active, and more!

As per the calendar given earlier this month, many have been waiting for this. The “Heroes with Blazing Light” banner is now active.

Using Ophelia’s damaged artwork. Now that’s strategy!

Within this banner: Celica: Caring Princess, Leif: Prince of Leonstar, and Ophelia: Dramatic Heroine. This is quite obviously the “Ophelia and Friends” bait banner, but if you’re looking for copies of any of these units, I don’t think there will be a better opportunity again for quite some time.

The banner begins today and lasts until the 4th of March, 6:59am UTC. If you do want any of these guys, just be aware that the 2nd Anniversary banner is coming soon (featuring Legendary Azura, Halloween Myrrh, Legendary Lyn, and Duma) on the 25th of February, and a new Legendary arriving on the 27th of February with the Legendary banner. Hold on to your Orbs, this banner is not going anywhere fast!
