Meanwhile, Ike...


I can only think of 2 other lords that aren't like the others and they're Hector and Lyn. Hector, like Ike, is your rough and tumble sort of guy rather than the usually polite, tactful lord you'd get from Chrom, Eliwood and Marth. Lyn kind of plays the long-lost princess raised outside of nobility. That being said, only Ike is a different lord who isn't nobility or a major one and who doesn't really have a connection to anything otherworldly or grand at the beginning. He was just some mercenary leader compared to the Blazing Sword trio who were descendants of legendary heroes, Chrom, Lucina, and Marth who were connected to Naga, or Corrin and Robin who are incarnations or offspring of dragons. I didn't finish Sacred Stones, but weren't Eirika and Ephraim part of a prophecy or something?

Hmm... I just realized something. None of the lords / ladies so far have ever been Pegasus Knights or Wyvern Riders. They've been pretty much everything else, infantry, horsemen, archers, and mages, but never flying units. FE 16, bear rider lord / lady please. :p

Edit: Micaiah was also connected to something, right? Or was she really a nobody who seemed like a somebody?
Eirika and Ephraim weren't really connected to anything. They were just the prince and princess of Renais. Micaiah also wasn't connected to anything but she was a Branded. If i remember correctly, a Branded is someone who's half-Beroc (human) and half-Laguz. They can't transform like the Laguz but their features are apparent in their hair color, eye color, being a bit taller than average, ageing slowly, and most importantly, their brand (which they hide. Micaiah's brand is at the back of her hand). And a lot of people in Tellius (except for Ike and his companions) are extremely racist against the Branded (although they may have forgotten that at the end of Radiant Dawn because Micaiah became queen of Daein). As for Ike, i feel he would be more unique if he didn't have blue hair. I know its tradition but he was a mercenary so he didn't need blue hair.

Nah, but they were a prince and a princess, and all of the royals in that game were descended from one of the 5 heroes who defeated the demon king.

Renais was a major region, so they count for that, but not for anything else. I can't comment on Micaiah since I never played Radiant Dawn past like 10 minutes... Really wanted to play Path of Radiance first before Radiant Dawn. Release it on Virtual Console, Nintendo! As for Ike... They could have given him black hair, but that might cause some issues...


The weird thing is that Fire Emblem just has a wacky selection of hair color. So, Ike could have been the first pink-haired lord just because. He kind of should have been the first purple or indigo-haired lord because of his mom, Elena, or the first brunette because of Greil, but nope, he was blue-haired.

I wish that this was the case. He would look good with Greil's hair color!

Isn't actually neccesary to be a direct 50/50 blood. The only thing the "branded" needs is the Laguz Blood, (Micaiah and Stefan are proof of this with their very old heritage... And yeah, some explanations involve spoilers xD)

Wow... I don't think before that I could post something here... But I'm starting to get actually excited with the idea of playing Fates (but I don't plan buy it in the release date)

Appearance-wise the most unique looking Main Characters are the Silver-Haired-ones (Micaiah, Robin and Corrin), Lyn and Celica.

Character-wise... Hector I guess? He is a hot-headed and sadistic (according to a friend)

Back to Micaiah real quick, she became Yune's vessel but only because she released her from the Fire Emblem. Also, it seems that its only when your royalty when wacky hair colors come into play. I don't know how genetics work in Fire Emblem. I mean, in Awakening, Chrom and Lucina+her sibilings have blue hair but Lissa and Emm have blonde. Plus blue hair doesn't seem to be that common in terms of the continent yet Marth and Sheeda's blue hair gene somehow survived 2000 years.

Disclaimer: Sorry if this ends up being a double post. I have no idea how to add in quotes when editing a post.

Is that how being a Branded works? I haven't played any of the Tellius games. Also, you brought up Celica. The fact that Gaiden got TWO music tracks this time made me legit think that Celica would be added. I think Celica's the only pink haired Lord in the series. Also, Gaiden's a great game. Oh and about Hector, he is hot-headed but he is not sadistic. Far from it.

Anyone talk about the time of the DLC yet?
Well, I did some math, and, well, the DLC releases 2/4 for the UK.

If it is assumed that they are going for the same pattern as last time (Cloud DLC), we'll be getting Corrin and Bayonetta at 7 PM EST which results in 12 AM GMT. It might be earlier, but it's safe to assume it'll be around that time.

That sounds about right to me. Basically, don't expect to be waking up to them, or having them when you get back from school/university... unless you live in Australia where (by this timeframe) they'll be releasing at about 11am tomorrow :p

NOA specifically said "afternoon," so even 4 pm PST seems a little late. Doesn't the eshop update at 12 pm EST though?

That being said, wasn't Cloud released later on due to the Direct a few hours before?

The release date is listed as 12/4 for UK which means at the earliest 12 am GMT. This translates to 7 EST and 4 PT. It's probably a bit too optimistic to think they'll release him exactly when it becomes 12/4 in the UK though.

Can't wait for all the breakdowns and possible future tournament rep Corrin will get as well as final patches for characters that need them. Now the only thing I don't get is why is there a tier list made yesterday by the smash back room before the final update it makes no sense IMO http://www.ssbwiki.com/List_of_SSB4_tier_lists_(NTSC)

Remember that Nintendo of America are based in Washington state, which is in the Pacific time zone. 7pm EST is very much the afternoon there, since it translates to 4pm PST.

Dude, it's not even close, but I'll help. Watch this once and then you'll be hooked and won't be able to do anything else but watch it over and over and over again.

Okay, fixed the link from earlier. Sorry about that. My left click does not work most of the time.

Here it is so you don't have to go back there.
mid-high
worse than Ike but better than Robin maybe
Wait, if this is true, Nairo thinks Ike is mid-high, huh? I guess I've been severely underestimating him. Oh but whatever, this thread's for Corrin, not Ike.

Also, Nario actually commented in that thread, and I think what he said is pretty important;
The way this is written is very vague compared to what I actually said lol so many people are confused about things. BOTH THE CHARACTERS ARE GOOD! THEY HAVE NEAT STUFF!! I didn't have an infinite amount of time on everything but enough to get an IDEA of them. For the Corrin dair I corrected that in another comment(said that it connects more at lower %, which is good = more % so I guess similar to yoshi's dair in the air probably) For the no combo part that was just for grab follow ups, not the entire character, he/she had some combos lol.

CORRIN CAN BE BETTER THAN IKE(SURE HOPE SO TOO) NOTHING I SAY ABOUT STUFF LIKE THAT IS GUARANTEED JUST FIRST IMPRESSIONS

So I was watching a really good Kingdom Hearts speedrunner named Bizkit doing an HD 1.5 Race, meanwhile his girlfriend was doing some Photoshop doodling based on requests from the chat, so I requested Corrin!

Hope y'all folks are ready....

Soon. (I'm gonna have my "SIGURD" tag ready for the Blue M. Corrin) I can't wait for this character to come out because I like seeing the amount of viable sword characters increase.

OMG I seriously can't hold the hype right now, I don't remember being this hype for smash in a while now, I just want to see how is Corrin. I suppose that you don't care if I join the Corrin social now so hi guys, I recognize some people from the Robin boards.

Well I guess MGSV is going to prevent that I implode from hype in the next hours.

Just a cute picture I found to add to the Corrin hype.
That take some time to i notice that this guy is Robin (the "thing in the hair that made me think that it was a tiara" made me think for a second that it was marth)
Very good fanart, and start to the duo that make the strongest Morgan and Kanna
