-Hp/+Res B!Ike and -Spd/+Res Hector

So I've got these two little diamonds from the current banners and I am now wondering how to put them to use, are thoses IVs good ? (I'm pretty happy with Hector's IVs but not sure about Ike's)

Hector's speed is his least important stats, and while attack is favored, resistance is still really good, considering he has distant counter. Fortify and goad armor buffs are great!

I think Ike would be the same really. Attack is highly recommended as a boon, but he can do with any boons really. DC, if you have it, will help Ike combat mages better and resistance will be coupled nicely with it I'm sure. DC, along with Beaorc's Blessing or Quick Riposte, and Urvan, will help him immensely.

I would say no to giving up Hector, but it is solely your choice to having Ike have Distant Counter. I have an extra Hector and debating on giving DC to Zephiel of B! Ike myself.

Honestly, Hector's IV's aren't optimal, but certainly far from unusable. However, Ike's Res is terrible, and with all the strong mages running around, it's not too great of an IV. He also doesn't appreciate getting doubled by even more units, even though Urvan helps to mitigate this. I'd say dont use Ikein arena until you get a better one, but train your current one, get his abilities, and then merge when you get a second one, so you can use the better one's SP for other abilities.

I'm not sure if DC is fine for B!Ike as it might prevent Uvan's effect to work on consecutive attacks he would receive from ranged units. I've waited too long for Hector to join my army to feed him to another unit anyways haha.

I'll have to see numbers myself, but having Ike tank the likes of Reinhardt while having the 2nd blow reduced by 80% and be able to counter back at him is something I just wanted to see. I figured Ike would be a prevalent counter against a lot of different blue mages out there. He wouldn't be the best by any means, but yea.

Anyone that has the data, that would be pretty sweet.
