Who's your 1-5 favorite OVERALL characters

and by that I mean, combat abilitys, artwork, voice, builds, supporting ability, cuteness levels, epicness levels and..... I can't think of anything else. mine are:

1: Morgan (M). cause he's JUST TOO DARN CUTE!!!! HIS VOICE FITS HIM IMO!!!! HE TOO CUTE!!!!!! and...and he also has a pretty awesome weapon. (combat, art, voice and cuteness level 9000, epicness level 7)

2: L!ike. Dr. Beefcakes can, with the right build, take almost no damage from mages. (combat, builds, voice. cuteness level 0.6, epicness level 9.65)

3: S!corrin. I just find it ironic that the dragon rides one, and she can have some REALLY good builds. (all the above, cuteness level 8, epicness 9)

4: PA azura. do I need reasons? (supporting ability, voice, cuteness 6, epicness 5

these are all units i have btw, who are your'es?

Edit: everyone has good choices for number one, VERY good choices, but let me make one thing clear, Morgan (m) is amunst the cutest characters in heroes, just saying

I'd give everyone 5 orbs for commenting, but.........well.....I'm not sages

1)B!Lucina-time-traveling apocalypse-stopping princess wielding a carrot lance is too funny not be the best. Pulling out the stupidest strategies for her to kill Grima in the TT with a carrot lance is worth it
2) Micaiah- half the reason a beat a lot of the more annoying chain challenges(Desperation+Brash assault OP), also Radiant Dawn was the first FE game I played
3)Fallen Celica-10/10 would sell my soul to Duma as well
(Also the voice freaks me out as much as it ... well... yeah)
4)Cordelia-Firesweep/Heavy Blade/QP Seal is just stupid tbh, and I like flier emblem more than all the other ones
5)F!Morgan- probably just cause shes been such a monster in the TT that shes already 9999SP 2 days after summoning her and her voice is hella cute ^_^

Shoutout to a fellow Brave Lucina fan! I may have to try her with carrot lance at some point if you say it's that fun of a build. Also would give me a reason to fodder Xander if he blocks me from Bunny Lucina in the future again....

Report

Normally I don't run Carrot lance on her, its just for TT currently since I use her as a tank for my team. Otherwise I'm usually running the typical support build with her base weapon, or a Firesweep Heavy Blade/QP/Galeforce build that you see on Cordelia a lot, or even brave lance (occasionally) for some weird theory builds

1. Empty. Leaving this spot for if/when Owain ever shows his cute face. :L

2. F!Morgan. I don't have M!Morgan, so I haven't really listened to his voice/lines, but F!Morgan is too cute. The way she strives to be like her father... <3

3. LA!Hector. Bara!Hector is just.... Phew. *Wipes sweat from face*

4. Sothe. Abs Emblem when, anyone?

5. Florina. I like her mostly because of what you can do with her. Give her Distant Counter, a good weapon, and increase her res stat? She goes from a highly disliked/undesirable character to someone that can be a really great mage killer.

Nice choices! Cool seeing someone enjoy Male Morgan so much. I admit I like him better here than in Awakening, and it could be entirely based on his face not being so smug and his new voice. Haha.

Can't hate Summer Corrin or that odd Mystery Dancer - both are cute and fantastic units. Buff Ike is just great. Can be built like a tank with plenty of firepower and I found of the 3 it to be Chun's closest performance to Ike from the Tellius games. Confident, plain-spoken and blunt. That's the Ike I remember!

For me, and I'm sure to no one's surprise:
1 - Brave Lucina. Of the 4 Lucy's, aka my best girl and favorite, I find her to be the most unique and fun. She has cut out her own niche among the lancers as both a wall but also arguably one of the better support units in the game. Not many supporters see a lot of use, but Brave Lucy can do the job incredibly while still holding her own and being a tank. I love her unique platstyle and design, and it was the role where Alexis Tipton finally stepped confidently into Laura Bailey's boots as her new voice. Just wish her lines were a little more interesting. :/ Plus her Great Lord armor design is great!

2 - Soleil. She hits like a truck and is as happy-go-lucky as she was in Fates, which makes playing with her a ton of fun. Plus you can't help but think she's cute as can be! Soleil is bae.

3 - LA Hector. Patrick Seitz is amazing and I love Hector as an embarassed, overly protective father. I don't even need my boi as a CYL version. I'm set. Haha.

4 - Performing Inigo. Odd choice, I know. Honestly, I found Inigo a bit annoying in Awakening. Liked him much better in Fates, strangely. Hearing his lines as Performing Inigo and his attempts to honor his mother I found to be endearing. Plus he's unique as a male dancer and is a decent check to some units depending on how you build him. Ranged dancer? Sure, that works for me!

5 - Black Knight. Zelgius is easily better at this point, but BK still has some of my favorite critical quotes in the game. His omnipresence when he first dropped and his menacing powerl level at the time made me remember why he/Zelgius is one of the deepest and most interesting characters in the series. Armor design, lines, motivation, power - he's so much fun.

Just my top 5. Thanks for sharing the prompt!

Lyon- My favorite character in the series. Nephenee- She's not shy overall...but she's shy about her voice. I can relate, though just not shy about that in specific.
Berkut- Liked his character in Echoes and his VA is great
Chrom- Favorite from Awakening. And a dork. A great dork
Takumi- My favorite from Fates.

Report

1) Soren - his voice doesn't quite fit him though but he's my favorite character of all time, so he gets the top spot regardless. Loving his new tome and role as a super fast debuffer. <3
2) Lute - I love using her and her weird weirding tome. Plus she's a favorite from Sacred stones. I love her support convos. XD
3) Leon - Leon carries probably every playthrough of Echoes for me with a Killer bow and a critical to everything. Built him the same way here (defensive CC bonfire bomb and also a bravebow build) and while I have a (kind of) hard time using colorless units consistently, he's still awesome.
4) Ike (VL currently) - One of the very very few non-royal lords (or is he the only non-royal? I think he might be). His Heroes voice throws me because it's not anywhere near his PoR voice (not that he had more than like, 4 lines in the whole thing but w/e). Super useful tank and a 4 cooldown for an Aether shot is awesome.
5) Sothe - I'm still mad I only have a -ATK version of him. I'm compensating for now with a poison dagger+ but ugh I want to use him properly. In any case, I remember being totally stoked when I first found out Sothe was gonna be an MC in PoR's sequel. Felt so weird to start with a theif and a mage and not a sword/lance user, but it kinda grows on you.
(honorable mentions):
Ephraim (amazing in his game as a character and a unit - I want his legendary form, damnit), Myrhh (mostly as a unit in heroes, as I was kinda ambivalent to her SS character and only really used her on the last map), Joshua (excellent in SS, decent in heroes (if I can ever decide how to build him...)), and Lucius (super powerful and tolerant in BS (silly Raven), but... kind of awkward to use healer in heroes?)

1) OG Celica: I have no words, she's just one of my favorite characters ever, and she is pretty good combat wise as well.
Celica is coming to Smash don't even try to tell me otherwise

2) Myrrh: Adorable dragon girl, what else could you want? Okay, trainee bonus, prf weapon, fantastic mixed tank in the air, and great offensive stats. The best manakete in the game, hands down.

3) LA!Lyn; Spent 200+ orbs for her, and finally pulled her, and built her using multiple 5* exclusives (W!Tharja, Hardin). Don't have a single regret.

4) Genny: Sheep is stronk

5) Legendary Ike: This man is so swole, it's ridiculous.

Yes please. I'd actually like Corrin to go instead of Roy tho. I also want Lucina to become a skin of Marth and for Hector to be added. And that's just my FE wishlist for Smash...
(Ice Climbers and Wolf plz)

Tbh I don't think Lucy should have been a separate character in the first place. Not that she didn't deserve it, it's just that she was another sword character, and I think people were actually upset at the amount of FE characters with swords.

Report

Well I'll stick with characters I actually have in Heroes. Sorry characters like Ayra and Mia who are some of my favorites in the series but I haven't been able to summon. Also I feel like a lot of my list will have a lot of personal bias from the main series games.

1) Fir: The third in my trifecta of favorite swordmasters in the series, the other two mentioned above. Unfortunately she's underwhelming in Heroes but building a Wa Dao+/Fury/Swordbreaker/Def Ploy set has been fun doing to make her somewhat viable.

2) Amelia: Probably my favorite armor unit, sorry a certain character in the next slot of this list. Armor March plus her speed make her really fun to use. Mine hits 43 speed with speed refined Slaying Axe, a +Spd IV, and Fury 3. I just noticed she actually outspeeds my Fir currently by 1 point. Crazy!

3) Zelgius: By far one of my favorite antagonists in the FE series. And just like in Tellius his Heroes counterpart is certainly a threat. Really wish I had a Zelgius that wasn't -Atk, but Fierce Stance with QR seal help make up for that a bit.

4) Tailtiu: By far the most cheerful character of the first generation of Genealogy, who also has one of the most tragic endings in the series to the point of ending up a broken bird trope. And she's been a really fun blue mage to use, now if a good IV Tailtiu would come home that'd be great! Also kinda wish they gave her Wrath in her base kit, considering the skill was one of her defining traits as a unit in Genealogy.

5) Nino: Cause she is a cute smol powerhouse of a mage. And she may not be able to read well but she's not letting that stop her from being a mage. I mean she's just trying her best!

Honestly this was kinda hard but fun to try to narrow down as there were a lot of characters that I have that I considering putting in but didn't. Like Lachesis, Nephenee, Titania, Soren, Arvis, Elincia, Soleil, SM! Eirika, Est, A!Tiki, Nowi, Fae, Sanaki, L!Ike/B!Ike, and Marisa.

1. Nino: haven't played her game but I know it because it was my boyfriend's first FE game, and her story made me fall in love with her. She's so damn cute here, and I love she's still relevant after a year of the app coming out. Baby super Nino is best girl. Boyfriend calls her MiNino because of how much I say she's my Nino, and he hopes to see her in Heroes with cat ears.

2. Takumi: not as awesome as he is in Fates, but he's still cool to use, and I love his art so much because I can still make the pineapple jokes (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!).

3. Ike: My first 5* sword unit and he's still in my main team to this day, being MiNino's support, caretaker, and best friend. Not a fan of his art but I love his voice because he sounds like I imagined, an awkward young man with zero social skills. I also love he's as fast as my Ike from PoR, get them all!

4. Shigure: Although not the strongest dancer in the game, I fell in love with his art and Geyser Dance is a godsend for me. I love him so much in Fates, and listening to Matt Mercer with such a smooth voice is worth it.

5. (Leo would be here… IF I HAD ONE!) Maria: best healer for me, and I love her lines about Minerva and Michalis, definitely a tragic family, but she's still so positive. Her art is so cute, and I really love her voice. Also, first 5* healer I got as a pity breaker.

1 - Performing Azura. She is beyond useful. XP/SP grinding new units, TT, Arena, etc. Also being able to destroy blues and tank magic is incredible. Artwork is beautiful, overall just a very well done unit in my opinion.

2 - Black Knight. To me, he is the most badass character in the game. When he was revealed as a TT reward, I pretty much lost my mind. I didn't have much interest in Armor Emblem prior, but he is pretty much the reason now why it is my 2nd favorite team comp.

3 - Cordela. Same reasons Cipher listed :-P

4 - Brave Lyn. At this point there is no need to explain why Brave Lyn is such a great unit. She's my worst enemy, as Flier Emblem is my main team, but she's also the only reason I even bothered putting together a Horse Emblem team. They are my least favorite to use, but if I'm having trouble with a map they usually pull through for me in a pinch.

5 - Cherche. She was my first 5* +10 and has been incredible for me from the start. She's a bit one dimensional as far as her build goes, but being able to destroy pretty much every unit in the game is bonkers.

For my number 1 spot is tied between Sheena and Myrrh. Sheena thanks to her tanking ability ingame and that proc "You will FALL!" quote makes my day, her art & voice design is also one of my favorites and she was my first 5 star.

Myrrh is also #1 due to playing my first FE game was Sacred Stones. At the time i was introduced to the game, i thought it would be one of those medieval games with no monsters, magic, and such till i watch the beginning clip, and when i saw her i was like "oh shit she has wings, now im curious on what she is" she is also the reason why i took in interest in the FE series lore as well.

3rd spot goes to Lyon the "Demon King", he was one of few villians that actually had a reason why they were invading kingdoms and still cared for his countrymen. That and he was a badass mage when he was unlocked postgame.

4th spot goes to Black Knight/Zelgius thanks to his story plot, style of being a strategist while in badass armor welding a greatsword one handed.

Lastly 5th spot goes to Ninian. Her role in Fire Emblem was spot on, a good portion of the story is around her and her brother and why an evil wizard wants then. We dont know till midgame-lategame she was a dragon, she is the only dancer that i know of that used bracelets (well besides her brother) that boosted stats ingame when dancing, i think FE7 is the only game that had that feature honestly. That and shes useful in FEH as well.

Report

That and Ninians brother too. But that blazed a path to wreck Nergal on my first playthough especially after the part Dragon Ninian meets Eliwood and co, sad scene that.... and boy did it trigger vengeance

Report

Some cool choices! Zelgius will always be one of my favorite enemies in the series! Sheena is a character I really want to try using when I eventually get around to FE3 book 2. Myrrh is a pretty good dragon in the series, I think Fae might be m personal favorite partly cause her sprite looking like a big chicken dragon kinda amuses me. Ninian/Nils buffing is certainly a nice addition to more than just simply dancing. Tellius Heron I feel kinda tried to add utility with affecting biorhythm, filling laguz gauges, and healing (really high level though) but the buffing is still the better utility in most instances.

5. Effie. She carried the day in many of the GHB battles when I had to use only armor teams, as well as carrying the day in the latest Rival Domain battle.

4. Sigurd. Of course I had to put the second max merge I've ever gotten, and a member of my arena core on here.

3. Soleil. I'm hoping to get more to continue building her, but her lines are cute, I'll say that.

2. Michalis. Awesome physical tank with cool quotes who reminds me of Kratos from Tales of Symphonia.

1. Fae. You had to see this coming. My first max merge, only one of which was summoned at 5 stars(that's 200,000 hero feathers) who I dare say is on the level of W!Tharja, who is currently celebrated as one of the best units in the game. She's adorable, especially in her special quotes, she can withstand attacks from almost anything, including a host of sword lords, and counter them hard with her Wrath-fueled Aether.
