He was a lifesaver with his Bowbreaker and Reposition against an enemy Takumi. I'm glad I'll finally get to see him again in this round! Yaaaaay! I'm so glad you got him! He's been amazing in the Arena. He took some practice, but he's been a great mage for me. I haven't gotten your Julia. ;A; I've been getting @DarkLordIvy's Soren (as per usual--he must be happy that I finally leveled up my own) and....a Kagero. The username is Locke, so I'm not sure which variation of Serenes Locke that is. XD I think my favorite ally so far is this 5* Matthew+4. He's so much fun to use. His Bonfire obliterates just about everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so sad that so few people seem to be getting Julia, though...Hopefully she'll show up for more people in the final stretch. I've had @Anime27Arts's Spring Chrom and @mcsilas's Delthea most often, both of whom have been great help as well. Although I don't actually know if they're going/have already gone to team Ninian too, so Merric might be carrying most of my battles from now on.

THIS is what the gauntlet is about, to me - two opposing sides, each with their own reasons, and a nice clean battle to figure out who wins. Time to give it my all~! If only the Gauntlets wouldn't leave such a bitter taste afterwards.  25 minutes ago, Vaximillian said: Do you mind explaining why anyone has to explain why they like this or that character?

Why be bitter? It's the efforts of everyone in the world - we're just a tiny drop in the score. But I'm gonna give it my all anyway. Anyway, have some highlights from the gauntlet so far: Spoiler The actual winner of the gauntlet is Azura. The RNG be weird sometimes. Ran into this during my quest for training tower flags. Yes, I surrendered, because Virion did zero damage, and Fir/Shanna were 2HKO'd.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, I won't be spiteful towards F!Corrin 2nd victory since I can take comfort knowing that Team A!Tiki gave them a run for their money.  & I have no idea why you call that mysterious woman Azura. She's clearly another character since altogether she's using an ax something Azura can't use in Fates. Hence why she's the MVP of this month's Voting Guantlets being the only green dancer in the game besides Laslow's expy, Inigo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ledrert Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 *check the sheet* Oh wow, what an ending. If M!Corrin was winning this, I'd be so confused. Well, here I am at last, team Ninian. Time to give you the win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cute Chao Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 12 hours ago, DefaultBeep said: I'm glad to see someone else who likes Gaius for his actual personality, and not just candy memes. I've thought about using a picture of him for my picture on here, but that seems... dangerous, considering the reputation he has in the Heroes forums. I just don't really like the young and bratty type of characters in any game or other media; I can respect the accuracy of some of them, but the personality type grates on me all the same. Unfortunately for me, that's a trait that a lot of the child units in Fates share, so it's a bit unavoidable I guess (although there are some standout kids that I do quite like in Fates). I believe Panne was the first person I had him marry, so I have a bit of bias toward that support, but I definitely agree that it's a really good one. I really like the one between him and Libra for a similar reason; it starts off more humorous with Gaius messing with Libra and not seeming to listen or take things seriously, but by the end he finds a common ground between himself and Libra, even if they don't fully agree in their beliefs. I certainly don't dislike Cordelia, but there's plenty of characters I like more, both in and outside of Awakening. I can appreciate that, despite her perfection in most every other area, she struggles with insecurities due to unrealistic standards that she holds herself to, something that was only made worse by the loss of her fellow Pegasus Knights. I've been guilty of a similar mindset myself; not to say that I think I'm perfect, but I can understand the thought that even when I do my best, I'm still failing myself and others around me. I just wish there was more focus on that aspect of her, instead of her feelings for Chrom. I'm more unsure of why she's as popular as she is in the general fandom, really. I couldn't care less what the people in the Heroes forum think of me, Gaius, or my choices. Display your favourites and be proud xD If people are really that sore over a stupid Voting Gauntlet... Well, that's their problem. I'm currently sore over yet another stupid banner -.- A lot of Gaius' supports and conversations are pretty funny. I like the Beach one between him and Lon'qu xD I think McSilas had some good points as to why they liked Cordelia, so might be worth reading those to try and find out why she's popular. Those factors must just appeal to the majority :) To me... Eh, she's just eh to me. Not a stand out character but not one I hate, personally ^.^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only guess is that it's @Ice Dragon but I can't tell. If she's +5 and running Luna and Life and Death 3, yeah that's mine. Glad to know she's been of use. I was trying to think of who my strongest all-purpose standalone red unit was, and the first unit I thought was Elincia, so there she is. I should probably switch her back over to Desperation, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethany81707 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Missed the multiplier because I was playing Simpsons Road Rage. (Got $84,088 for the curious.) Also missed a round because two fliers and Ninian versus Innes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenzify Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Seeing how little difference in score there needs to be for a multiplier to trigger is killing the competitive aspect for me. I should be glad Ninian currently has a multiplier, but with barely any points between her and Corrin, I just find it excessive... I doubt I'll be as enthusiastic about next gauntlet, even if there's a character I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcsilas Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 @DefaultBeep Glad Delthea is of use. If you need other colours, do let me know. So I went ahead and backed Ninian for my main account (since Tiki lost) since I had more flags there. But yeah wow ranking sure is tough, but the things I do for the lady that visited me in the free summon. For science, my second account who was M!Corrin went to F!Corrin, just because I already had the unexpected 500 feathers win in Round 1. Also for easy lv 1 Corrin battles since I can't play as much on this account. It'll be interesting to see how I rank in that one, and how it affects cumulative ranking, atlhough I only had 800 flags left from round 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, she's been very useful every time she's appeared, so I'm fine with her. In fact, I'm pretty sure she's shown up in every match where I've been against a Xander, which has been quite fortunate.

Makes me jealous since I never pulled a Julia (only 5 star green mage in that account is Nino) @Cute Chao Yeah unfortunately most of Caeldori's supports are kind of bland (a lot of Fates are to be honest, even worse when she's a clone) but I just find it intriguing to have two pegasus knights talk and how their personalities affect their pegasi. Also I love the Gaius x Lon'qu Summer Scramble talk! I really wish we had a Summer Lon'qu.

Sunwoo Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I hope Ninian has some more multipliers during some of my waking hours. I stayed up to catch that last multiplier, and I really should not have. I want to go to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roflolxp54 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I'm surprised that Ninian actually got the first lead - with almost quadruple the score Corrin had! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcsilas Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I wonder how frequent Ninian's multipliers will be. If not maybe I'll just spend 100-200 each time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I only gave the scores a glance and already posted it. Salt, am I right? Although, in my case it's more salt towards the mechanics than the characters.
