I guess I'll pick Lyn first so I don't have to pull colorless units.

Same thought.

 

[Cerium]

lmao who ISN'T going to pick Lyn for free?

 

[Sterok]

This VG is going to be insane. Ike looks crazy, and we finally get a bow pony. Ike is super tempting, but I've got to go for that free Lyn. IS really is too generous sometimes.

 

[mjc]

Lyn has to be my pick, I'll be damned if I spend my saved orbs on colorless summons.

 

[chrono01]

It looks like NicoNico viewers are happy for the free CYL character (rightfully so).

 

[randomusername]

Free heroes for everyone

 

[Hours Left]

lmao who ISN'T going to pick Lyn for free?

I'm not.

Ike all the way.

 

[Gai Murakumo]

I really want to pick Lyn but that Ike though looks sick. He is practically just Greil now.

 

[OVDRobo]

That's surprisingly generous of them to give us one for free. Even moreso considering the amount of free orbs they've been giving us leading up to this.

I'd actually like all the CYL heroes but in order I'd say Lyn > Lucina > Ike > Roy for me.

The balance is going to be completely screwed after this event, though. Uncounterable horseback archer. What the hell were they thinking? Melee is dead.

is that asking "what are you most excited for"?

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

Depending on how great these other units are I am actually more interested in targeting Hector on the voting gauntlet banner.

 

[Akuun]

I'm guessing the freebies will be neutral IV like all other free units. Maybe people will whale for htem anyway for ideal IVs or something, but eh.

 

[Sushen]

I want Lucina, but need that Lyn.

I want Ike, but I need Lyn. The second horse team, here I come!

 

[Technoweirdo]

I feel like I'm the only person picking Lucina. >.>

 

[MiguelMexMIstery]

lmao who ISN'T going to pick Lyn for free?

I guess someone who wants a complete Lucina team fast enough

stream satisfaction. typical survey after any official stream

Is there gonna be a gauntlet banner?

 

[chrono01]

Nope, just to rate the stream (1 being the best, 5 being the worst).

Yeah, going Lyn as well (for multiple reasons). She just seems like the best/safer option, and I've yet to pull a single Lyn (granted, she only has one in-game so far, but still).

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

There has been several banners with great blue units and I am tapped out on summoning blue for a while.

Yeah, the last nice colorless I got was...well...Takumi from launch. :/

I NEED LYN!

 

[Whizkid7]

Ugh, Ike or Roy, I don't know which one I want more. Roy's my boy BUT IKE!

 

[Drkirby]

[MildSoss]

I guess i'll finally be getting my first ever Lyn.

 

[spiritfox]

I don't need another infantry lancer unfortunately.

 

[Okamid3n]

All four of these units have really good weapons/skills. And we get a free one of our choice?? Sweeeet!

This game is really generous.

i have like 7 of the freaking bridal lyn, so she doesn't have only one so far.

But everyone can use death blow 3, I mean, Klein.

ah okay. i hope that means more free units in the future IS



also does this mean we're getting a hector banner for the gauntlet?

 

[xequalsy]

Thinking I'll pick Lyn and pull on green for Ike. Went all out the last month on blue trying (and failing in the latter case) for Summer Corrin and Ninian so I'm good on blue fodder for now.

Could do with a couple more Gunters for example, and maybe I'll finally get a +att Cecilla too.

 

[Draxal]

art is amazing.

kinda don't like kotaro as the other three, wish hidari got a choice of one lol.

 

[Busaiku]

Always Ike.
Unless there's Leo or Soren.

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

There's been voting gauntlet banners for every gauntlet except the Summer heroes one and that was because one banner was just introduced and active during the gauntlet.

 

[toastyToast]

I'm guessing the freebies will be neutral IV like all other free units. Maybe people will whale for htem anyway for ideal IVs or something, but eh.

That would be nice of them especially since its supposed to be a separate summoning session and might not go through the usual algorithm. At the same time they could just let them roll IVs so that some people get sucky freebies and roll the banner for them anyway among the other units = more money spent.

They all look so good. ;_;

I legit forgot about her, sorry.

 

[CrackPebbles]

All I need is Lyn

 

[spiritfox]

Oh man looking at Ike's kit, he just needs Distant Counter to murder Reinhardt. Let's hope his res is good enough to at least survive the first hits.

Lucina looks like the combat buffs equivalent of Ephraim.

inb4 you pull a -RES Ike.

 

[OVDRobo]

Looking forward to seeing Sacae and Beorc's blessing smeared all over units in GHBs from now on.

 

[Busaiku]

Do I sacrifice my only Hector left for Distant Counter Brave One.
Why did I use it on Titania.

Oh, maybe I'll just build another Titania.

 

[Bamboo 竹]

Nobody talking about the best part of all of this?

The artstyles (and maybe artists too, don't know) of the CYL characters are the same from each original game, respectively. So awesome!!!

 

[phoenix296]

Looks like Lyn comes with swift sparrow,draconic aura and drive attack. Easy pick.

 

[Alucrid]

wait what do sacred coins do

Where are you seeing the rest of her kit?

This literally only applies to DC users, who already got destroyed by Brave Bows anyway (sans Hector).

It won't make that big of an impact, especially if Lyn is weak.

 

[Drkirby]

Nobody knows.

 

[Xist2inspire]

Some screenshots of the abilities:

Wow, Ike's pretty much a one-man counter to Flier and Horse Emblem, and Urvan's ability means a bad speed stat isn't really a problem. Low RES could be his only weakness.

Looking forward to seeing Sacae and Beorc's blessing smeared all over units in GHBs from now on.

That might not happen since they're labled as uninheritable.

 

[phoenix296]

Where are you seeing the rest of her kit?

It's in the video. You can see her stats too. 35hp, 47 atk, 38 spd, 18 def, 28 res.

 

[Busaiku]

Even with lower Resistance, Ike can still destroy Reinhardt, since Dire Thunder won't hit as hard with 80% less.

 

[Ninferno]

We don't know their stats spread yet but yes judging from the weapon and movement types Lyn looks like a clear winner. Guess they really won't Lyn to win the gauntlet then. lol Will go with Hector though, because I like him and have him.

PS: Glad they made CYL Ike RD Ike. Loved that art. Roy's art still looks ass though; I don't understand why you guys are saying "all of the four are good".

 

[Akuun]

Yeaaaaaaaaa, I'm pretty done with blue for now too.
