Oh, and in response to what someone said about Ike being a two handed swordsman.
This is actually incorrect. The game never has him using both hands except one of his critical animations and skill animation IE Aether. The design for Ragnell in brawl has two grips on the handles, but this wasn't shown at all in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. That and Ragnell seems a lot longer in Brawl! Like how Marth uses two hands for the Shield Breaker, it's just for extra force.
The game also doesn't mention him being so powerful he can wield a two handed sword with a single hand since they don't seem heavy enough to demand that. All of his attacks are basic single handed strokes unless they're abilities or criticals, then they get more complex. The comments from Ike are just from Sakurai's blog (which is retranslated mind you) and his appearance is altered. I guess he made Ragnell longer for balance reasons.
