So, I'm not gonna guess the units in the banner per se, since I know I'll be completely off. However, I'm here to list the possible heroes for this LH (IE the new red hero) and what we may get.
Also, never forget. Protagonists and important heroes only, so people who are borderline protagonists (No Caeda, sorry XD)
List goes as follows:
Alm, Celica , Seliph, Roy, Eliwood, Eirika, Micaiah, Chrom, M!Robin, Xander, F&M!Corrin
Now, given these, you may wonder what the hell is possible. Well, we're getting a water hero (and to boot we know that logic is gone with the elements since LH's like Ryoma who use lightning are water heroes) and thus I have my string of logic.
Given how IS has treated it's LH's as of late. We aren't getting Roy They're avoiding FE6 on purpose. For what reason? I know not, but it's evident. A remake coming out after 13 so they're avoiding it until they get the new art? No clue, but it feels that way.
Then we have Seliph. We've had multiple chances and I also feel that it won't be him. He's had a myriad of chances since we've had a Genealogy banner every so often and the color has matched. So I doubt it'll be him, I truly do.
Alm is a potential candidate, though I'm unsure if they want to go and drop Alm or Celica rn as Legendary Heroes. Feels a bit, off.
Eliwood feels likely given that it's been a while since a FE7 Hero, and he is missing. He may very well remain a water hero as well. Hector is fire (when his axe is lightning) and since Eliwood/Hector are rivals, water fits in my eyes.
Eirika is a potentially cool unit, but it won't be her. I feel it.
Micaiah is gonna be December's Colorless hero, that's just a guess mind you XD
Sure as hell not Chrom, nope. We just got Marth and another Falchion is kinda weird.
Corrin is a potential unit, as is Xander who we have yet to attain (though I doubt he'd be water just like Ryoma), but just as Xander, I doubt Corrin will be water (or maybe they will, I dunno)
M!Robin. After getting a few different units from FE:A and a FE:A GHB, I fee that it'll be him. Just a hunch. But I digress, people tend to hate it when they say Awakening or Fates is an option, but it always will be.
As such, my suspicions alude to Eliwood, Corrin, or Robin!M. You don't avoid Roy so long and then go and drop him just like that. What's your guess (try to be logical, don't ask for Ghebb please) and then your wish. Since, know, we all have that unit we want but know probably won't be a LH.
For me it's basically Alm or nothing. There are three awesome things about him: he's left-handed, he's a badass and he's voiced by the guy who voiced 9S in Nier:Automata and did an absolutely impressive job. I don't care if they'd implement him as a red bow, sword or as a janitor or whatever....just put him in the legendary roster already.
I'd say Alm will definitely appear at some point, Celica's a maybe since she got a Brave and Fallen version.
Roy or Eliwood at some point, probably not both but that's just my guess.
Eirika's likely, hopefully not on a horse.
I doubt, and hope against, Chrom, there's already 4 of him. I feel Lucina is all we need from Awakening so no Robin either.
Xander and one (or both) Corrin is pretty much definite since we got Ryoma. The Corrins I don't mind as there's only 2 of each but, as with Chrom, we have 4 Xanders so I'd rather not. M!Corrin would be a dragon, F!Corrin with the Omega Yato.
That's my thinking anyway, F!Corrin would be the only one I'd want but she'd have to be damned good to stand out as another sword user.
They could go with my L!Hardin (Hardin is important arguably to the level of Tiki, and in FEH his only appearance is as a "fallen hero" despite him being a pivotal character for a portion of the game, unlike Zephiel or the others of the archetype), and if he's viewed as the opposite of Marth like you view Hector/Eliwood he could be a Water hero: https://project-emblem.wikia.com/wiki/Hardin_(Shadows'_Hero)
Lance/Cavalry (we already have a Water flier and infantry and the last legendary unit, or 2 of last 3, was an armor, so all the more reason for a cavalry unit):
Stats
34/34/37/32/22
Skills
Lance: Hero's Lance+ (Mt 13) - If unit is 5★ and level 40 and unit's stats total less than 170, treats unit's stats as 170 in modes like Arena. During combat, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+X, where X is the number of spaces unit moved during current action (or previous action if enemy phase). If it is player phase turn 1, or during or since previous action unit attacked or was attacked, X is treated as 4. (SP 400)
Assist: Custodian - Converts target ally's special to Miracle (until it is used), and grants Special cooldown+X to target ally and inflicts Special cooldown-X on unit, where X is (unit's base special cooldown - current cooldown). If Miracle triggers on ally targeted this way, inflicts damage to unit equal to the excess damage prevented this way. (HP cannot drop below 1 this way.)
Special: Vengeance
A: Counter Melee - Unit can counterattack regardless of foe's range. If foe uses sword, lance, or axe and unit has weapon-triangle disadvantage or heightened weapon-triangle disadvantage, reduces total effect of weapon triangle to 10% instead. (SP 350. This skill can not be inherited.)
B: Hero-General - If it is player phase turn 1, or during or since previous action unit attacked or was attacked, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack and is granted Special cooldown charge +1 per unit's attack. (SP 300. This skill cannot be inherited.)
Inheritable 400 point weapon skills is a thing I'm about. Counter Melee is a fusion of Distant Counter and another skill I concocted (so it's a "double-packed" skill with SP value like Ostian Counter).
A Red Tome/Flying L!Azura then, who Water is an absolutely perfect affinity for: https://project-emblem.wikia.com/wiki/Azura_(Legendary_Song)
Stats
36/33/33/14/24
Skills
Tome (Red): Dragon Spirit (Mt 14) - Unit can counterattack regardless of foe's range. If unit initiates battle and foe has no skills with "effective against dragon foes", grants "effective against dragon foes" during combat. If foe uses sword, lance, axe, or dragonstone, grants Def+10 during combat.
Assist: Inspiring Song - Grants another action and/or Atk/Spd/Def/Res+3 to target ally. (An ally with Sing or Dance cannot perform another action.) Unit cannot be granted an additional action through assist skills.
Special: Heavenrend (CD: 2) - Boosts damage dealt by 50% x (foe's Atk - unit's Def or Res). (Unit's stat used in calculation is determined by foe's weapon.)
A: Quixotic 3 - Grants Spd+4. If unit/foe initiates battle, grants unit or (instead) both unit and foe (respectively) Atk+4 during combat.
C: Healing Descant - At the start of every second turn, restores 5 HP to adjacent allies. If there is only 1 injured ally adjacent, restores 10 HP instead.
I sort of wonder if E-Chrom and SM-Eirika were intended as some sort of "We know you like these characters, but they're not getting the Legendary treatment, so here's a peace offering." They're not "brave" versions, nor do they fall into any of the seasonal/themed categories and they were sort of the central focus of their respective banners. Although the same could be said for Hinoka and Nino... If that's their logic, could we get a "fancy" non-legendary Sothe or Soren?
As far as preferences, I'd love Eirika or Micaiah, but no rush. Alm, Celica, Eliwood, or Roy would be fine with me. I kinda-sorta expect Xander to counter-balance L-Ryoma, and Corrin is probably inevitable too, but meh. Please no Chrom.
Edit: I also wouldn't be surprised if we ended up with a total of four "FEH-original" Legendary heroes by the time the story is complete, one for each blessing. Or even two per blessing if they go beyond the first set of 16 and the Askr trio plus Veronica "ascend" in the second batch. And that'd be fine with me. So, whether that means Hrid or someone we haven't met yet... Who knows? Fjorm was the first and Gunnthra came out of nowhere. Ylgr seems mighty unlikely.
