In what is now a strange and twisted tradition, Fire Emblem Heroes is bringing back more evil and corrupted versions of existing Heroes in the upcoming “Dark Burdens” summoning event.
From 8th May 2020 (UTC), Summoners can try to befriend fallen Corrin (male), Lyon, Julia and Ike. Because it’s a “New Heroes” banner, the guaranteed summon after 40 summons will be in effect.
If that’s not enough evil for you, Ashnard: Mad King will be appearing in Grand Hero Battles a day later, on 9th May 2020 (UTC).
For those curious, Fallen Ike has previously appeared in the Cipher card game (in Series 12). It seems this version of Ike has succumbed to the chaos within the medallion. Maybe next year we’ll finally get Risen King Chrom?
Corrin: Bloodbound Beast
Type: Blue Dragon Infantry
Voice: Cam Clarke
Artist: argon
Weapon: Brutal Breath – Grants Spd +3. Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res +X during combat. (Calculates X based on number of allies within 2 spaces of unit: 0 allies grants +5; 1 grants +3; 2 grants +1; >=3 allies grants +0.) If the number of allies within 2 spaces is <=1, inflicts Special Cooldown charge -1 on foe per attack during combat. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack.) If foe’s Range =2, calculates damage using the lower of foe’s Def or Res.

B: Null Follow-Up 3
C: Rouse Spd/Def 3
Lyon: Demon King
Type: Green Tome Infantry
Voice: Mark P. Whitten
Artist: Yone Kazuki
Weapon: Blood Tome – Grants Atk +3. If foe uses bow, dagger, magic, or staff, reduces damage from area-of-effect Specials by 80% (excluding Rokkr area-of-effect Specials) and reduces damage from foe’s attacks by 50%, and if foe is also colorless, grants weapon-triangle advantage to unit and inflicts weapon-triangle disadvantage on foe.

Weapon: Chaos Ragnell – Unit can counterattack regardless of foe’s range. Grants bonus to Atk/Spd/Def/Res during combat = current penalty on each of unit’s stats x2. (Example: If unit has -7 penalty to Atk, grants Atk +14, for a net bonus of Atk +7.) Calculates each stat bonus independently.
