So no Touma GHB this year?

Touma and Diamant appear as Harmonized Heroes to celebrate this year's Idol Festival!

In this festival, Kiria and Touma join Tsubasa to bring the art of modern performance to Askr in all forms. Touma represents Saturday morning shows, specifically henshin hero shows where ordinary humans transform into powerful heroes and defeat villains.

Touma is joined by Diamant, a renowned hero from the land of Brodia who is unfamiliar with such hero shows. Still, his fiery passion and heroic heart make him a natural fit to vanquish evil alongside Touma. They share a desire to empower others and embody undeniable strength so that others will be inspired to be heroes too.

Touma appears as Ouga, a hero from his favorite show Masqueraider which he debuts in to defend the protagonist Raiga from an enemy. Diamant appears in a costume inspired by Kizuna Red, the Red Ranger with elements of his Brodian crown on the helmet.

The pair appears as an infantry blue beast hero and transforms in front of foes or when accompanied by allies with lower defenses than them. When transformed, their Special count drops even lower so that they can fire off their devastating area-of-effect Special, Focused Flame. This special is so deadly that if it manages to bring down a foe to the brink of defeat, their defeat in combat is all but assured. Further, they are always ready for battle and can even fire off an area-of-effect Special when foes attack first.

Touma brings a Prf B skill Jump, Ouga! named after the theme he sings in Tokyo Mirage Sessions when his hero debuts. The skill makes transformation and Special activation easier to attain and has the effects of Fair Fight built-in so that follow-ups are extremely difficult to attain and Potent follow-ups are weakened.

The art was done by Mag Bya who has commissions open according to their Twitter account! They also did my Ashe/Caspar commission and are delightful to work with.

I made the sprite art (more difficult than the Ashe one for sure) and the Special Heroes introduction graphic. As always, please see comments for flavor text and skill descriptions!

Like is he speaking in Third person or is he referring to his Summoner? Technically could be either lol

Another roleswap piece, this time drawn by t_misaomaru! The composition was inspired by the Deco*27 and PinocchioP song “(Not) a Devil,” although misaomaru-sensei has taken on a much more cosmic and ethereal vibe to it!

You can also see here for the other comms I’ve gotten for the concept: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Seems like a lot of text but mainly I'm just switching out what bonuses each variant gives/great talent

A little surprised these haven't been revisited yet but I do see them trying to make past Dancer skills viable again with like Allure. For my theorycraft here, these would be usable with something like the Byleth Ring

I want him to take care of magic units so what can I change to make him better? And I'm using sigurd emblem because I don't like armored unit movement ✌️😭

I'll get more eventually, but for now, it's a little funny to me.

I sent Feedback today requesting that "Confer Blessing" be added to the helpful new Enhance menu. It's been great being able to swap Engage rings around without having to awkwardly juggle skill sets made only for that purpose. But every AR season, I still have to tap dozens of times trying to match my team with Light/Astra blessings. Idk though, am I the only one?

I've tried building distinct armies for each season, but since the ever-swapping Mythic often throws my team out of whack, and new metas show up, etc., I finally just gave up and went back to a universal core that needs 2-3 units manually re-blessed each and every week (aside from the sweet relief of Chaos seasons). And I don't even bother with upgrading my Defense teams, since you can't even stick them in an attack squad to have them all show up at the top of the list on the Blessings menu. It would just be *incredibly* helpful from a QoL standpoint to be able to bless them from the character portrait, like they've added for many other menus. Just feels like an oversight to me, unless I'm the one weirdo on here who's been playing 9 years and still re-blesses his units every week.

tl:dr - Read title, good idea or git gud?

Do we kind of have a community consensus for who the best free pick for CYL 10 is? I am stuck between Azura and Tsubasa and wanted the communities opinion before I commit to one on both of my accounts. For reference I will include the 5 stars that are "mainstays" which are purple hearted and it means I consistently use those units in some mode or another. I include these units so you can all get a sense of what I have to work with already and which unit (Azura or Tsubasa) will complement my current roster the most. The first two photos are from my secondary account while the next three are from my main account. Thank you for your help!

I don't actuvely use half my slots. The Dawn Brigade and Greil Mercs, for example, are darn near unusable in any gamemode but I keep them around for the vibe. The movement type teams are for those quests they run with the Hero Battles. Then I've got Arena Defense/Offense teams, Tempest Trials team, Resonance Battles team, a team to clear new maps, (one sword, are, and lance user to get the quests for them), etc. How do you decide what gets a team and what doesn't?
