Caeda took a lot of inspiration from legendary Marth by taking bonus doubler and unity thus becoming a statball, while keeping her trademark effectiveness against cabs and armours, and those new counter skills will do wonders to my many Marths that have been waiting for good fodder. Great video Tacho, always as early.
This banner is actually pretty neat, not so much for the meta, but for how decently thought out the units/characters are. Attuned Caeda and Ascended Merric seem like well-thought out alts for the characters, and their kits are good, if not super OP. Arlen is also pretty interesting in his stat distribution. That, and cutting so deep as to include Yulia is definitely good for representation. All in all, solid skip banner, but it's not bad.
3:15 The B skill is just an reference to when she asks that question when recruiting someone in an kinda funny way, which is why there is an questionmark.
Caeda has been mostly a flier except for her Bridal alt which is a Blue tome infantry and her Summer Harmonic alt with Plumeria which is an Axe cavalry unit. Just wanted to point this out.
Attuned Caeda looks great and I kinda want to pull Arlen and Ascended Merric but I agree with you Tacho, This banner smells of "the rent is due and we your money now" type. Especially with them powercreeping the absolute hell out of the attuned skills so quickly.
This is really neat With Caeda it looks like what could've been a Brave version of her in a way, also interesting how they are combining both Distant/Close Counter with Bonus Doubler, definitely pulling for Attuned Caeda and Ascended Merric
I have over 300 orbs and I have no idea where to drop them. I don't even know if I actually want anything from the upcoming green dream banner, but this Caeda looks like a nice, fun unit to have. But even then, April is war crimes month (kids banner) and May is Fallen month, so I may hold on.
Love Arlen, on of my faves from New Mystery, he's sorta like the Vegeta to Merric's Goku and it's implied he could've easily become another Gharnef if he allowed the hate to fester in his heart but you can recruit him and at least for me he always pulls through as a very decent unit. And I think's pretty neat that Merric and Arlen are meant to be the second generation of Miloah (Linde's father) and Gharnef as two mages that learned together under Gotoh with one excelling while the other became bitter of the other's progress. If Arlen was just a bit more popular I could see a fallen alt for him where he's gone crazy and just wants Merric's head on a silver platter.
Bonus Doubler 4 does at least also have spectrum + 4, so you could still just run the D Counter sacred seal with it. Though D Doubler does free up your sacred seal slot for anything you want.
looking forward to some of the fodder here, the echo has me really curious on who would best use it. I was hoping for maybe more new characters in general.
I actually liked this banner. Caeda and Merric are pretty much must summon for me and it's great to have a more powerful version of them. Yuliya's stats are nice and it's nice to have a non-seasonal version of Seaside Parasol since it's the next best staff after Arcane Charmer and I like the new CC and DC variations.
well DC Bonus Doubler is nice, but not much of a point if BD4 and either DC weapons or DC seal are used. CC Bonus Doubler will be well appreciated, no doubt.
damn guess my Brave Marth and Sanaki got some new bonus doubler + CC/DC fodder to free up their sacred seal slots. Also given that Yuliya is on the banner, it's extremely likely without even needing to check that the GHB is prolly her brother Jubelo... and then it turns out it's Castor instead, lol, poor Jubelo can't catch a break
Maybe I don't see his potential, but Merric seems kinda bad, which is sad cus I like him :/// Like yeah he's a 2024 unit, but doesn't scowl just destroy him completely? Edit: Oops forgot he gets the special charge on his follow up too. But he still seems kinda just ok
Well time to put Close Counter 4 on my Brave Edie for that Bonus Doubler shenanigans. To be honest when I saw the Attuned Caeda, I immediately said "Another one?!". Also who's this sassy lost child?
D/C Bonus Doubler aren't really strictly better than Prime as you're trading some stats for guaranteed DC/CC, but if you can easily give bonuses to your team, then Prime is still better the better option (unless I'm mistaken lol).
@@Kirbv Oh yeah, forgot about that lol, but the only units who care about +spectrum stats are omni-tanks, and well...they're not in a good spot right now, so focusing on your best stats is better to actually beat your opponents.
Bonus Doubler is infantry locked, that's really the only advantage Prime has over this tbh I'll trade 3 points in 2 stats for +6 in the other two any day of the week. Units running Distant Counter generally want all stats to get raised anyway
But Caeda does get her flat damage reduction against Cavs and Armors? Or did I misunderstood you there? Cause against Cavs and Armors it’s basically 100% of her or allies around her total bonuses (so 24 if 6 on everyone) and against Infantry and Fliers it’s less, it’s only 40% or total bonuses (so 9 with 6 on everyone). :0
I just need the Caeda, her skills sound insane of my 🅱️ike, plus, I can give her all the Godspeed skills. I’m saving up 5 the 2024 Heroes banner though, idk if I wanna risk it…
Jubelo not getting in with his sis is a travesty, but I guess old man Wendell as well since he’s tied to Merric and Arlen. Despite having so many missing units Archanea’s remaining characters are bottom of the barrel lol. Easy skip for me.
IMO, D and C Bonus Doubler are very unlikely to be a big deal in practice. It's very likely infantry only, and infantry EP units - and infantry in general, with a small handful of specific exceptions like Nabata Igrene - are supremely screwed in the current meta, this won't save them. Prime also wasn't that good, because you had to build a good chunk of a team's worth of support around it for most units, and even if you did, it still struggled to be consistently active thanks to usually having a need to have multiple units position properly or dance a unit and get out of the way to have it up (And the Thief girl just cancels it completely in AR, too - she's rare, but not nonexistent). This is the best DC on units that are already stacking buffs, but, with how close to impossible EP is right now, and with stuff like Miasma being not exactly rare, I expect the impact it'll make to be negligible.
Id say Caeda is good but she doesnt have Null C Disrupt in her kit so until she gets that from either an Echo skill or if we ever see Null C Disrupt Sacred seal she will forever be dogged on by Duo Lyon just like every other unit in the game.
"New heroes" you say... Prime is rather overhyped and lackluster, the conditions are not easy to meet on its own. Doing my best to stack F2P orb, no reason to spend beyond fodder at this point. Looking for more Muspell or Regna Ferox, then maybe card gets used.
No, the theory is that she's sleeping around in the barracks lol A lot of her recruitment dialogues are kinda sus and she recruits only male characters
@@tacho9427 i see haven't played the games she's in so can't speak to that personally. Though from what I've seen of her that seems unlikely. Still amusing if nothing else i suppose.
Wait I'm confused how does Ceada's skill not work on cavs. Isn't it full flat dr on armor and cavs and 40% of that flat dr on infantry and flyers. So how does that not work on lyon? Am i missing something?
@@tacho9427 It says 40% of X, so that would imply that she just gets a weaker version of her flat DR against infantry and fliers, not that it’s a percent DR
Hey Shadow Dragon is a great game. It is just ugly. I need some motivation to play FEH by the way. It just feels like (or just is) that we have reaches a level of power creep where none of my previous investment means anything.
@TACHO of course it's a cry for help because they didn't expect another green dream banner it's excellent for the feh players not so much for I.S. they have to recoup SOME money somehow.🤔🤨🧐
Seems good,but we alrewdy have a better omnitank and green tome nuke and they were released literally 2 weeks ago,its giving flop outside of the new skills
yay... summoning on colorless just keeps getting more impossible on each banner... How many more dozens of generic staff demotes do you think the can mass produce till the % chance on colorless gets borderline 0? (just blowing some steam, dont need someone to do the actual math)
Power creeped guard 4 in the echo skill
Crazy that we went from death blow 2 to soaring guidance in the span of a couple months
Merric do be out here lookin' like The Dark Magician from Yugioh. I want him for that reason alone.
Caeda took a lot of inspiration from legendary Marth by taking bonus doubler and unity thus becoming a statball, while keeping her trademark effectiveness against cabs and armours, and those new counter skills will do wonders to my many Marths that have been waiting for good fodder.

All in all, solid skip banner, but it's not bad.
I want to know who'll be the unit to get the anti pre-damage. Place your bets on the sacrifice! 😂
Good luck to everyone that's summoning!
A Hector alt will be my guess. Brave Hector 2.0 maybe?
@@ixlness
Old Man Hector confirmed.
The Buff Deer guy of Book 8.
A premium staff unit somewhere in the near future (child flayn?). Emblem Micaiah
3:15 The B skill is just an reference to when she asks that question when recruiting someone in an kinda funny way, which is why there is an questionmark.

for me, validar can use close counter bonus doubler and inherit the atk res tempo 4 also
Found a validar fan! This is exactly what I need although still water is good for res checks
This is really neat With Caeda it looks like what could've been a Brave version of her in a way, also interesting how they are combining both Distant/Close Counter with Bonus Doubler, definitely pulling for Attuned Caeda and Ascended Merric

Yeah, I'd wait, smol Banner and Fallen are almost always bangers
time to revitalize my L!Marth and many more
It's weird that Yuliya entered in feh without Jubelo

IS really looked at me finishing building Nephenee and said "You are like baby, watch *this*."
Kronya gang happy noice with C bonus doubler
Bonus Doubler 4 does at least also have spectrum + 4, so you could still just run the D Counter sacred seal with it. Though D Doubler does free up your sacred seal slot for anything you want.
Omfg I just remembered we have another Bonus doubler for sacred seals
Attuned Caeda is TEMPTING...
But I want to save Orbs for the next Remix that catches my interest.

what happened to shame

Isn't Believe in love a question a reference to how she recruits a certain unit in the game. Pretty sure it is.
I am in disbelief that they put in Yuliya without Jubelo when he's basically 90% of her personality.....
You can officially quad stack unity
well DC Bonus Doubler is nice, but not much of a point if BD4 and either DC weapons or DC seal are used. CC Bonus Doubler will be well appreciated, no doubt.
I thought this would be a banger to nab our orbs before AHR. Kind of an easy skip unless you're an Archanea fan.
Finally a new Merric!! And LET'S GO MARTH'S BAE IS LOOKING GOATED
With heior and legendary or harmonized azura caeda can get up to 32 true damage reduction 😮
damn guess my Brave Marth and Sanaki got some new bonus doubler + CC/DC fodder to free up their sacred seal slots. Also given that Yuliya is on the banner, it's extremely likely without even needing to check that the GHB is prolly her brother Jubelo... and then it turns out it's Castor instead, lol, poor Jubelo can't catch a break
Caeda and Merric get more love with their new alts!
Maybe I don't see his potential, but Merric seems kinda bad, which is sad cus I like him :///

This one gives omni stats(depends on buff), prime is only two but i think prime is better if you only care about one stat
@@Kirbv Oh yeah, forgot about that lol, but the only units who care about +spectrum stats are omni-tanks, and well...they're not in a good spot right now, so focusing on your best stats is better to actually beat your opponents.
It depends if you'd rather have upwards of +9 to two stats or +6 to all stats
Bonus Doubler is infantry locked, that's really the only advantage Prime has over this tbh
I'll trade 3 points in 2 stats for +6 in the other two any day of the week. Units running Distant Counter generally want all stats to get raised anyway
D Bonus Doubler? *laughs in Arcane Luin*
I have 0 orbs for summon nothing

Good thing I saved my orbs
NGL, I'd super trade that true DR on Caeda by an [En Garde] effect... still gonna snipe her ass tho, she's great!
Well,I was right in not going for the hero rises banner.
This one is better.
Yumina is the most random unit here as arlon merric and castor are here
Attuned Caeda and Bloodlines jams? 😎

What?? 3:20 Caeda is not loyal to Marth according to fan theory??? What am I missing here?
Trivia: Unit introduction for this banner was backward actually 😊
Id say Caeda is good but she doesnt have Null C Disrupt in her kit so until she gets that from either an Echo skill or if we ever see Null C Disrupt Sacred seal she will forever be dogged on by Duo Lyon just like every other unit in the game.
I kinda want Attuned Caeda, but this one’s a skip for me, saving orbs for AHR.

Honestly it feels more and more like IS is on autopilot this year. Every banner feels more bland and worse then the last one
So…Mozu and Scarlet next month?
Oh frk…your right Caeda is a unit that can pass infantry skills.
Got to skip…though.
Never heard of that theory. Do people think Ceada will kill marth in his sleep or something?
No, the theory is that she's sleeping around in the barracks lol
A lot of her recruitment dialogues are kinda sus and she recruits only male characters

@@tacho9427That's hilarious. Kinda reminds me of our boy Roy in his game, who supports with only women. Absolute fucking chad.
More broken units never nerfed thats units powercreep is so much paiin and hate for fire emblem heroes
Well, more fodder for Nephenee I see. 😅
Easy skip, since Spring and AHR are right around the corner. Also DSH too.
Damb is take a break
They're trying so hard to correct the melt meta and turn end meta
Its not working sadly
Wait I'm confused how does Ceada's skill not work on cavs. Isn't it full flat dr on armor and cavs and 40% of that flat dr on infantry and flyers. So how does that not work on lyon? Am i missing something?
She has a dual condition.
Flat, not pierecable DR% against Armor/Cavs, and 40% pierceable brave DR% against Infantry/Flying
@@tacho9427 It says 40% of X, so that would imply that she just gets a weaker version of her flat DR against infantry and fliers, not that it’s a percent DR
Caeda seems… incredibly stupid to me. That is a ridiculous B skill.
Why not added caeda dragon knigth
They are trying so hard to sell us new skills, its really sad
Hey Shadow Dragon is a great game. It is just ugly.

Demote 4 star caeda dragon
Ok now this is actual overkill, NOW the game is dying
Seems good,but we alrewdy have a better omnitank and green tome nuke and they were released literally 2 weeks ago,its giving flop outside of the new skills
Ok, did they seriously give the demote spd/res finish instead of atk/spd or atk/res? Wow
They know those are the useful ones, so they're not going to make those available anytime soon.
yay... summoning on colorless just keeps getting more impossible on each banner...
How many more dozens of generic staff demotes do you think the can mass produce till the % chance on colorless gets borderline 0?
(just blowing some steam, dont need someone to do the actual math)
I hate this game so much lol
