er, those are really good stats for Camilla. The only hits she's good at taking are magic anyways. +atk is the best to have on all brave weapon users and Camilla can quad a lot of things with +spd and darting blow.
They'll likely start another orb event. Also the gauntlet is almost assuredly going to result in everyone getting 20 orbs again, lol.
I'm guessing the two high runners will be Camilla and Hinoka. Or maybe Cordelia will beat Hinoka.Any thoughts on who this voting gauntlet's Lucina will be (if any)?
Which do you guys think is better for my Flier Emblem team?
+ATK -DEF Cherche
or
+DEF -RES Minerva
I'm leaning more towards Minerva cause she is way tankier.

If you're gonna run Life and Death on Minerva, she'll be about as tanky as Cherche but with a ton more speed. They're both good units, though I'd lean towards Minerva for her Ward Fliers.
Camilla easily.
Might try to pull some more later, but for now, I'm not complaining
Wanted to roll a 5* Cherche or Camilla (mostly for her Brave Axe+ lol) and ended up getting this boy instead ayy

EDIT: Hmm +SPD -DEF apparently. Could be worse I guess.
Seriously considering dropping Desperation 3 on Nino for G Tomebreaker. I did Desperation before I found Linde, and right now the only common threat to my team is a tomebreaker Nino. I want mine to at least be able to go toe to toe with one. Bonus is that my Nino, who was raised from 3*, is back over 500 SP so I can do it easily.
But for this week's arena I'll have Selena who should be fine to tank some greens. Hmm.
maybe i haven't encountered any kitted out hectors, but whenever i run up against one my lucina destroys him
? Last I checked, Nino has enough firepower to one-shot herself. Not so much Julia though, who'd come out the winner if she's rocking Green Tomebreaker and Nino's not.

Yes, a unit's counter is usually very strong against it.
I'm actually going to run Fury 3 on Minerva and replacing Ward Fliers for Fortify Fliers.
My team is basically:
Hinoka +DEF -RES
Bunny Camilla +HP -RES
Minerva +DEF -RES / Cherche +ATK -DEF
Palla +ATK -DEF

join Camilla if you're too lazy to actually try for feathers, join Cordelia if you're actually trying to max out your feather gain
Think it's also more that Hector on defense is still basically a free kill.
Tbf, lucina isn't really a counter for Hector as much as Tiki is.

Yeah, usually the armored units just get left behind and wrecked later. You just need to protect your counter and it's pretty much a free kill.i feel that way about most armored units. had an arena against an effie and hector...it was sad.

The only exception being if you get an armored unit + dancer, and if the dancer constantly dances the armored unit to make him keep up with the rest of the group.
Those fights usually get dicey.
that's the other reason, I haven't seen a Julia lately that wasn't running tomebreaker.
but yeah, I checked the simulator and if I had 3 buffs up and running I could one shot other Ninos, with 4 I could take out even merged ones with Fury. But I need a shit ton more SP on Lucina, or I need to find an Eirika.
I'd actually suggest Vantage if possible over Desperation and Green Tomebreaker. Desperation doesn't really come off as useful to me when blue mages should be free kills and the average archer just needs to eat one hit to die. Only use I've seen is in the Hector matchup as he manages to survive the initial hit and will murder Nino on counter-attack. (Watch him use Green Tomebreaker too. >.>) Edit: And honestly, it's Hector. Chances are he'll be the last you need to fight and chances are you have a red for the job.
Fair points. You're sometimes just looking for that one kill, and Hector can get you that. The fact that Hectors are pretty common on defense in arena means that everyone who tries for perfect runs needs to have a counter prepared for him, just like you have to have a counter prepared for Lucina, Takumi, Julia, Linde, etc. You're giving your team up to RNG if you don't have a counter to those popular units, though to be fair, sometimes people just get screwed on pulls and then they can't fight certain units. It sucks.I'm going to have to disagree about armored units on defense. I do agree that they do stupid things, and since they are so slow, if you have a counter, they are easy kills. But remember, your goal on defense is to win ONE defense during the entire week. Armored units are great because if your opponent don't have an answer for them (and not everyone does), you'll almost always get a kill/win. Even with counters, sometimes you still lose a unit. I had a vantage Hector that ripped my team a new one the other day. Just couldn't out damage him and wasn't able to one-shot him because my Julia had taken some damage from the Nino.
Lucina is supposed to be a hard counter to Hector but honestly, it still doesn't feel like a hard counter because Hector can still kill Lucina through type disadvantage if she's weakened or something. That's how crazy strong he is.
Definitely. It's not a problem in open maps when he's the last guy, but it does present a problem sometimes on maps where he isn't the last guy, and you're cramped in by the map or by other enemy units.If Hector is the last enemy hero alive then I don't think there's a single map where you can't keep your team away from him indefinitely while Lucina heals up.
Which of the flyer banners is recommended? I have a 5-star Camilla, and some 3 and 4-stars for some of the others available at lower ranks.
I assume that either Camilla or Cordelia are going to win the next tournament.
I've found that if you give the heavies Pivot, the AI knows what to do and they move in fast. But most people aren't giving them Pivot yet.
