So after pulling the two Brave Ikes from the Legendary Hero banner, I've been using my orbs to see if I could get anyone from the Swift Sparrow fodder, wanting that skill for one of my units. Today, I've accumulated 28 orbs thanks to the new quests with the start of a new month, so I switched between the Legendary Hero banner and the Swift Sparrow banner to see what I'd get (for the LH banner, I wanted to see if I could get Legendary Tiki). When I switched to the Swift Sparrow banner about 14 orbs in, I struck gold!
I finally have a Swift Sparrow unit that isn't Brave Lyn, and it's Flying Nino! She is +Spd -Def, which is a solid nature.
However, I have no intention of using Flying Nino since I'm not interested in this particular unit. The only unit I want to invest in from the Swift Sparrow banner if I pull one with the right nature is Mage Erika. Thus, I decided to use Flying Nino as my first Swift Sparrow fodder.
I had to think about who to give Swift Sparrow to: it was either my Kinshi Hinoka, my Summer Takumi, or my NY!Takumi. I decided to go with the last of the three options: I'd like to give Kinshi Hinoka or Summer Takumi Swift Sparrow once I have a Faye to give either of them the Firesweep Bow. NY!Takumi, on the other hand, needs it more: he was using Life and Death beforehand, and while it does improve his killing potential, it lowers his defenses quite harshly. Thus, I figured Swift Sparrow worked better on him since it gives him a similar Attack and Speed boost while allowing him to retain his bulk: this means he can tank better against mages!
I also realized one of the extra Spring Kageros I pulled from a while back could give him an edge with a Lethal Carrot, and Saius could give him Speed Ploy for better ways to outspeed his foes. This also meant Moonbow would suit NY!Takumi well. With all these new goodies given to him, I have created what I call the perfect NY!Takumi:
Now we're talking!
And I gotta say, NY!Takumi wielding the Lethal Carrot is pretty hilarious!
He looks like he is about to throw the deadliest javelin... but in the form of a carrot!
Here, he's just to throw the carrot to the other side of the river to qualify for the Javelin throw in the Olympics. Good thing there isn't an enemy directly on the other side!
Beware of he who throws deadly carrots!
