Henshin a go go baby!
Totally understandable. Even if Lyn is my favorite character in the franchise, it's obvious we have too many of her. And it's not only the fact that it's her, but rather she doesn't seem unique. Like, look at her art and compare it to Brave Lyn, it's the exact same but by different artists. She uses Mulagir like her brave version, and the only difference is that she isn't on a horse. And yet after so many alts, none of the Lyns use the Mani Katti, which I find so stupid.Oh damn.
The YouTube videos for Legendary Lyn's banner (both the English and Japanese versions) are the most disliked of the new banner videos. As of now the English version is basically 1/3 dislikes, which is incredibly high.
People aren't happy.
And even then, it's a problem from IS altogether having all the alts nonsense we've been having. From my understanding the units that are releasing right now were planned during end of 2017 (because of new Hinoka's art having copyright from 2017), so we can expect this trend to keep happening for a couple of banners more. And to be fair, Lyn is probably the legendary hero just because it's FE7 anniversary, and she's the wind representative of the lord trio, so she was planned for a long time to appear.
And then there is the fact than some characters desperately need alts but they still don't have. The most obvious choice is Marth and it has so many memes about him... I'll just have this one for example
So yeah, I'm conflicted with this Lyn because I love her but I can see the problems with her inclusion. I think Intelligent Systems should just drop the alt thing and make alts only for seasonal banners. I'll miss some really good alts (I love Chrom's one for example), but Fire Emblem has so many characters than getting different variants of them before most of the games are properly represented it's really bad in my eyes. Even legendary heroes doesn't have to be variants, Athos would have been a great non-alt legendary hero, and would totally deserve that title.
The only thing I want is people to not hate Lyn for this... It just seems that IS is pushing her really hard just because she's so popular, and we know that being the popular one makes it easier for people to hate her.
