This is a popularity contest for some frilly artwork and an upgrade to Goddess-Blessed Holy Divine Sacred Blazing Shadow Omega Awakened Regalia status. Unless it was a gigantic attack, maybe they'd ignore it. If you have like 14 votes from one IP then yes, they probably won't care. If you have hundreds they will probably care. Basically, you're not going to make a difference in the vote without them noticing. Edited January 22, 2018 by Lushen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They left out the sinner whose crimes begat the travails of Tellius? If they are going to include a spot for generic faceless representative of bandit bosses across the series, could they have invented a generic Corrupt Noble? Or Crazed Cultist? 4 minutes ago, omegaxis1 said: We should all just vote for Male Robin, for the great and coveted Levin Sword. The sword forced Levin to be renamed to the mockery that is Lewyn. Silesse is German not Welsh! I therefore trample upon the sword in insulated garb! Although I must admit that the Levin Sword is still better than the Shockstick, whom I indict for the high crime of not being buyable in any mass availability way in Awakening. I hazard a guess the vast supply of them is being used by females, single, or not wanting to put up with the male sex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't until Shadow Dragon that it was actually given a name, as it was called Thunder Sword and such back then. Though Levin is an archaic noun that means "lightning and thunderbolts", so that means that it is a fitting name nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough. I've seen the word levin used in an electric context before SD came out (a special attack called Levinsnake's Rise). Not to mention that Levin is the heir to Forseti and not Mjolnir. I just wish they had thought through the naming of the sword that shoots thunder a little more, if NoA realized the potential of having to deal with Levin the prince-bard of Jugdral much later. They changed Levin to Lewyn presumably to avoid the oddity of people thinking he was named after the sword or the sword after him. It doesn't help that FE4 itself features the Levin Sword. And I don't mind Lewyn that terribly, it is still pronounced the same way as before. But it goes back to the swap from Nina to Nyna- why was the conversion to a y necessary other than for random looks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the name Robin is originally known for the villager in FE2, but then FE15 renamed him to Tobin, because Robin is taken by the Avatar in FE13. They do these kinds of things. And there's cases where people think that Morgan is Mark, the Avatar from FE7, because the Japanese name is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HK Motendra Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) #RallyMarth 4 hours ago, Etheus said: The greater crime is that Camus was somehow overlooked for that DLC pack. It baffles me. While I still agree with this, keep in mind that, aside from his alternate personas of Zeke & Sirius, he's an unplayable neutral villain. How would they justify it when they're drawing from the War of Shadows (where he's on the opposite side of the war)? Would make for a nice enemy though, had they gone further on Gristonne having villains to counteract Aytolis's heroes 3 hours ago, Etheus said: Even with pair up, we run into a different problem. How do you balance for the reduced mobility or need for pair up? In Warriors games, defense stats are much less important than offensive stats, so simply making them meat shields wouldn't be a significant advantage for good players. So do you then make them overpowered both defensively and offensively? What then would be the point of other lighter melee units? If the game is too easy, Knights may be overkill. If the game is balanced around knights, then lighter units would struggle for a place. I mean, do we really want gameplay to devolve into "fly the knight to point, switch back to flyer when fighting mages?" A possibility that could work for armored units is to have super armor, reminiscent of the power type characters in Warriors Orochi 3. Power type warriors can shrug off attacks without staggering, while still taking damage. It may sound strong on paper, but on higher difficulties, is very dangerous against big crowds (Cause even lowly mooks can kill you, if they have the chance) and stronger officers. Basically, an innate Armored Blow and Pass (since it doesn't really help) for the class Edited January 22, 2018 by Motendra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantSpaidaTheVaida Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Greetings fellow patricians, I am declaring for the following characters: Vaida, Scarlet, Guinivere, Zephiel (Blazing), Murdock, Brunnya, and Aversa. I thought I would announce myself and my intentions before reading through this topic and contributing to the discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDraks Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 My votes are going to be Micaiah 3 times, Ephraim 3 times, and Hector once because I feel he needs my help least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lau Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) So I've managed to vote for Marth on a couple of different browsers today, it probably won't make a difference, but I've seen some strong support for him around the Internet, so that's promising. If I weren't so focused on Marth, my votes would have gone to: Marth, Caeda, Young Tiki, Xane, Kaze, Eliwood and Ninian. @Motendra You, my friend, are truly an inspiration. #RallyMarth indeed.

It is? I always heard Llewyn, which I would've thought had the same pronunciation, pronounced Lew-in or Le-win, es.g. Inside Llewyn Davis. Levin is a Jewish name I always heard pronounced Le-vin. Funnily enough with one famous novelist/playwright being named Ira Levin. It's my headcanon that a decent on Genealogy was a big fan of his. 7 minutes ago, Rezzy said: Is 3-13 Archer in the poll?

Rapier Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) Leif, then probably Micaiah/Lewyn/Alvis (in this order of preference, I think).

Arthur97 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 So, people are touting Hector as a lock, but he wasn't that far ahead of Chrom.

Hector and Ephraim will both hugely benefit from Ike's removal, more than Chrom, though; they have similar personality types, and I'm sure there are many like me who have them all in our top favorites. Ike is also an older character like those two. Honestly, I think Ephraim could surpass Chrom this time; Ephraim is a good lance, while Chrom is fairly mediocre in heroes, as well as the overlap with Ike I mentioned.

ImsoniaticGamer Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 It may sound like a bandwagon thing to say, but I'm putting my faith in Marth. He is the face of FE. What has IS done to support their first hero? Nothing other than one banner at the beginning of the game. I hope that getting him #1 or #2 will buff him with a new character. I really need support to get him back up. It's kinda hopeless, I think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about being one of the original 5*'s in FEH with the whole unique cut-scenes and all? And Caeda has a seasonal. Also, they made another Marth game - New Mystery of the Emblem only 8 years ago. And he's in Smash. Ephraim has been neglected far more than Marth, Marth gets a ton of love from IS.
