Holy shit he actually got a sponsor our boy is growing
I came back to the game right when Duo Robin's banner came out and pulled Young Emmeryn. I read her weapon and was genuinely like "oh shit that's just a global warp for ANYONE if she acts? With a skill that lets her act twice???" She was a mainstay for my returning teams for actual months just off of that, not to mention the other support aspects of her weapon.
Also shoutout Nithavellir who I only remember because he shows up every so often in TT to ruin an autoplay run.
My pick is B! Embla. I see her never, which is crazy considering how busted she is. B! Embla and Aoe B! Felix is basicly a free win for most of aether raids.
I honestly think New Year Seiðr is probably the unit that's had the weirdest trajectory, like, ever. Upon release super early into this Book, she was (rightfully) considered to be broken af. Literally just Mythic Seiðr without any of the stuff that kept her balanced, and on top of that she's arguably in a better movement type. Then came along Valentines Lyon, and although she was still considered strong, people started kinda forgetting about her the longer he was around, until his usage inevitably diminished, with Seiðr disappearing entirely at the same time, and now... People have stopped expecting her, which brought her into this super weird situation where, while you can probably deploy better units than her, she's a crazy surprise pick, because again, she completely fell off the radar. She's still really good in PVE obviously, but in the PVP modes she's back to wrecking havoc because, in my experience at least, people just don't know how to react to her anymore. She was everywhere in early Book 8, but is definitely in the underrated camp now at its end.
I completely agree
I can’t believe brave Alfonse is considered kinda the worst of the CYL 8 units, that makes me sad :(
I mean he can't 1v1 my Keaton so...
He's really polarizing, I feel
Like, he kind of lives and dies by his Special
If he can activate it, do what he needs to, then he can tank and wall stuff pretty nicely, and although he has to attack first, he can still kinda provide Divine Stone support (even if it's mostly just meant for him)
But if he gets Scowl'd, that severely impairs his damage output, and his stats may be high but they're just stats at the end of the day, and he'll eventually be outdone
Bro dies to Emblem Sigurd. Once he was no longer able to tank things I knew he was dead to me
He has the same issue as E!Ike. He’s not weak whatsoever. He’s just boring a fuck to play. Thats why zero people use him or E!Ike anymore. Defensive units ruin Feh. He’s strong but why play a reactive unit when you can be so proactive with the other CYL units and have at least 54028x more fun.
Dunno what modes folks play but to me he is a shining beacong by beaing Emblem Ikes in Arena Assault and Voting Gauntlets, which is a lot more value from a unit than I can claim to most of my stacked barrack. Very hard to die.
I feel like bernie isn’t at all bad, just she seems like a unit that’s not always applicable and like her support isn’t necessarily useful because it’s very matchup dependent, like vantage desperation is something every unit had into Ike, and LF4 units don’t like having vantage unless they double. It’s main utility is vantage for ranged units, but far saves exist and Fjorm isn’t countered by just having hardy bearing. And desperation only matters if you’re doubling, and you’re foe might be faster, or just bulky enough to not care about being hit twice before their special goes off.
She’s still not bad it’s just that you have to consider what effect she’ll have on your units and how your units will meaningfully take advantage of it, instead of not being able to capitalize on it.
pretty sure emblem ike is underrated. never saw anyone talk about him being good
I love my boy Nidavellir. Not only is he a really good unit, but I just really enjoy his art and character (even though there isn’t much there).
This video is so gratifying to me. I remember when they announced this year's Brave units and everyone shat on Bernie and I was sitting here like "She hits 4 times every combat, twice with a special, has null follow up, vantage, desperation, and grants the last two to all allies within 2 spaces, and people think she's bad? What am I missing".
Although he's mostly known for his Ring I'll still probably say Emblem Marth. His combat especially now is way better. I have used him a fair bit nowadays. He does great against L!M! Alear and him against H!Nah and H!Nagi & Idunn is from when i play in his favor. I have also been seeing Mythic Lumera a lot more and he even destroys her.
I do have one annoyance with him. That being he's the on Emblem Hero that doesn't say "Emblem Engage" as a special quote.
Love to see another person agree with me on him lol. I sparked my only Emblem Marth when he first came out. He is far from being the best, but the boy is still really strong. Potent 4 is fun, mine consistently destroys Felix, and he is effective against dragons. As my favorite character, I use him all the time.
Also AMEN, I noticed that too, pretty sad
What’s your build for him
Good list and fair points! Personally, whilst I know it is very debatable to say at this point. But I think Eikthyrnir was very much underrated upon release, most have started to realize his potential now, but still. Just because Heidrun is such an insane monstrosity doesn't take away how fanstastically Eikthyrnir can excel in his own role. Dealing such an absurd amount of damage that Flat DR matters not whilst also being nearly unkillable by most physical attackers in the game.
I think Rearmed Sothe may be a bit underrated, and that's probably because of just how absurdly ridiculous Attuned Micaiah from the same banner is, so all the attention goes to her, even if rightfully so
But with Sothe, with Marth's ring, and an extra Pulse support (like say from Askr), he can precharge an AoE Special, and with Spd/Def Tempo and Atk/Spd Pledge, he should be able to recharge his AoE upon attacking (though opposing Tempo can get in the way of that)
I'm not actually sure if Bane is any better or not, but I do like spamming AoEs, and with Brave Robin's Canto 1 status, he can even AoE nuke something and retreat a space
But why use rearmed sothe when we got other units that id also consider underrated AOE nukes? Like Nidavellir or Fallen Ursula
But pulsing down an AOE is something every unit with a decent Atk stat can do. His gimmick is Bane, and that is not really that good. Without it, he is just Metodey/N!Noire but more expensive to merge up.
I think that Mozu is a good example. She was incredible on release, and had so much going for her, but fell off pretty badly, because Emblem Ike and other omnitanks have been added since (Brave Alfonse), and just do what Mozu did, but better.
I have no idea how people still underestimate Brave Alfonse, he can reliably tank most of the new units so far with a few simple support units
BRIDE LAPIS
Nidavellir being a living ballista is the best thing about him. Also the slaying support so his allies nuke faster. Really sad he was written off so quickly.
I think F! Lumera is pretty underrated.
I not a Bernadetta fan but use her in offense with my vantage Pannette. I must say I'm happy with her, Bernadetta has good damage and good support.
Also maybe baby emeryn was underrated because not that many people played galeforce teams back then. With Felix and Sigurd I feel like more people are using Galeforce strats
I personally think that B! Lapis is super underrated and a cool niche for countering E! Ike
Share Spoils is easily one of the best penalties (in my opinion) and it makes sense why they would restrict it to only be inflicted on a unit that survives after combat. It does set up some pretty interesting things for Galeforce teams too since Lapis can let people warp to her within 5 spaces.
I'm not very active in AR anymore, but I barely see anybody talking about her or using her and I just kinda wanted to gush about her (lol)
I think Bridal Lapis is SUPER underrated. The ability to warp allies to her from 5 spaces away after her combat is very strong in basically every mode. Give her the Celica ring or Sigurd ring and she can easily rush in, kill an enemy, and allow the rest of your team to warp in and sweep the enemy team. She also splash damages the entire enemy team, which certainly helps in taking them out. What's that? She didn't kill the enemy she was attacking? No worries. Now whatever ally kills that enemy will get an immediate Galeforce effect! No actions wasted.
Honestly, Bridal Lapis, not OP by any means but she provides a mass warping, not to the extent of Emmeryn but enough that makes it easy for people to jump in, especially with brave felix and robin. Share Spoils is also an effect that is difficult to inflict because she can kill but if she does inflict it and someone else warps in, it can trigger a domino effect
brave bernadetta is so good against brave Felix imo.
She's so good against most units and it's a crime that people aren't using her.
@TronicSpeed would you rather have her or brave Felix tho tbh Cecilia is my go to for blue& colorless units.
@@KingEndymionrose
Why not both ?
B!Bernadetta makes B!Felix even more OP, and if there's an enemy Felix cannot destroy she will. They're a great team.
@Libellulaire I have both omg yes it's fucking scary af power couple for sure.
I like Bernie ALOT but can't be bothered to use her or Felix. Omni tank mentality made me gravitate to the goat alfonse but not saying they bad rather me just in sheer Omni tank brainrot.
i love brave bernie bc she enables return trap and catch a LOT of people off guard
7:25 I'm not worried about this because base kit Nidavellir + incite A/S can literally oneshot E!Ikes and IF!Fjorms lmao. Heithrun support might be a bit different but if that's the case he can just deal with her first. pretty much the only unit that stops him is H!Nagi. he's a fantastic unit imo and a current mainstay on my team.
I have yet to find a unit that can consistently deal with H!Nagi, and her disgusting set on Lunatic...like, nothing I throw at her works lol
@@angelusvictor6715 I haven't tried that much but I think you should be able to attack her with a melee unit? most far saviours (even modern ones) really struggle to survive more than one melee combat. but in terms of ranged units that can nuke-tank-nuke her I don't know if there's a kit that can. Ashe and Fogado might be able to put up a fight?
B!Embla easily. She was already great on release, got better as a galeforce followup thanks to beast/E!Celica ring and nowadays she lets you bypass the powerful saves which have become common. When Freyr starts to drop off she'll become even better
Literally just threw Fatal Smoke 4 and Assassin's Strike on Niodavalier and he was pretty much killing everything
Yep i say same about bernadetta people talk about stoppingduo lyon freeze actipns but bernadetta can flip it towards him
I agree with the list. Until Fjorm i was still using F:Veyle as my delete whatever button because the only unit to tank her was A:Micaiah but shield fighter is prevelent now and melee nukes are in a better position such as Felix, Sigurd, Eikpyrnir etc.
Alfonse was the weakest of the CYL batch? From what I've seen, he was a strong competitor for number one alongside Felix. I have _never_ seen Brave Female Robin anywhere since her debut. Not in Aether Raids, not in Arena, not in...well, okay, there aren't very many prominent gamemodes, but still. Since she came out after Emblem Celica, her ice-vein effect never really was all that useful, and unlike Alfonse and Felix, she could actually _be_ defeated. Why do you say she's Brave Felix tier? I'm sure she's got some good utility I haven't noticed, but 10/10 seems REALLY generous...
The prob with Alfonse is that he's an omnitank, so omnitanks tend to age super poorly. That's why the other 3 took the spotlight (Bernie and Robin support, then we have Felix xd.
@alexjimenez4462 With Great Talent, I'd be surprised if he managed to fall off as quickly as the rest. Is Robin good solely for support? It can't just be the ice walls, can it?
@@TwoHeadedMeerkathush spectrum, Canto 1, and an atk/spd buff
Sorry I think I'm going to need a line graph to properly evaluate these underrated units
Please do another stream so i can ask if harken is still good
I liked the unit analysis, but that sprite fight between Alear and Felix was hella neat.
The full sprite fight is from his other video here: ruclips.net/video/erQvWSfyR1g/видео.htmlsi=0eUYtT5NO-RYx6g7
Ur right Ze I don't have hands I offered them to the Owl in return for orbs. 😔
Also Hraesvelgr fits right in she's genuinely underestimated despite being a really insane damage dealer like her dmg cap is no joke it's terrifying!!
I +10'd Brave Bernadetta Week 1 and she's killing a lot of the meta in AR. Looking at you, Brave Felix.
The biggest take away from this for me is that apparently I'm not cringe for running B!Alfsonse! Hooray!
Nidavellir not having a prf skill other than the weapon sucks.
Also Brave Alfonse is amazing wdym
I use Alfonse and face agaisnt him
He does not cook 💔
Congrats on getting a sponsor.
Get that money 🎉
Yeah, for sure. After all, you like Genshin Impact and just like the same as September collaboration. xD anyways have a great day, both Oblivionknight and Zeshado as well. :)
Merric ma boy
Ill add Bridal Lapis and Tina to your list. Both of them are beyond amazing and nobody bothers with them...
inb4 the final new heroes banner and mythic banner of the book come out and no one is capable of perceiving them so they become the true underrated heroes of book 8
For crazy people on reddit Bernadetta is the worst brave and not Alphonse lmao
Can we do a video on Canto and how it affected the game?
Dragalia fjorn spotted
If you're playing more casual B!Bernadetta is very easy to just lose i feel like, while the others are better at allrounding, but B!Bernadetta has lots of potential
My username aside, Summer F!Alear is kind of underrated too...
Hello, Miss Alear how's Lumera doing with you, A.l.E.A.R For life. xD.
Yeah alear is quite good and underrated at the time cause not emblem Ike..... She is still very very good just be faster so you don't get doubled that's all.
Hi Binda
I dont play Fire Emblem Heroes but I see Bernie, I leave a like.
You would literally have to be huffing copium if you think B!Alfonse is the worst brave unit this year, he single-handedly the best from the batch yes every other unit is unique and quite strong but there is no way you can downplay Alfonse’s capabilities bro has a special that magnifies his and his Allie’s stats, can pierce through dmg reduction, BoL 4 support, Reopening, +1 movement and Dist.Max Canto and flat damage reduction he’s by no means the worst and considering his stats only grow further using MoK that means stat based buffs only get better from there and not only that but since I was so curious to see as to how strong he’d be against the other CYL winners and I used him with his base build against the story and man these other CYL units don’t stand a chance both bernadetta and robin completely fall flat to Alfonse and yes even hush spectrum activated against him she still lost, Felix while tricky is not difficult once you understand his clash effect and hearing that sweet sweet *ding* *ding* is so satisfying so rating Alfonse a 7 is absolute blasphemy when considering he could completely strong arm every new unit coming up, and before I hear anything about how “E!Sigurd can just nuke em” Newsflash bozo E!Sigurd can basically nuke almost everyone even your precious CYL SLOT WASTERS.
Alfonse has 4 movement
Felix has 6 and cures penalties with his free wait.
Alfonse hits once with his special
Felix doubles with comparable extra damage and a special that scales higher.
Alfonse has 1 action
Felix has 2 he can attack with.
Felix is so much better on player phase than alfonse is, but he’s also not that bad on enemy phase, just excel won’t fully trigger for him. If alfonse has his stat ramping he’ll have a major advantage but that takes a while or a number of combats, but Felix is more threatening immediately.
And Alfonse can’t get around gust DR whatsoever.
I'm casual trash at AR but Emm has been a mainstay on both seasons, but especially Light for me. Love her to bits!
Anyways terrible video bc baby Frederick wasn't on the list smh
Personally I’m going to say Bernie is not underrated. I’ve seen her nonstop the past couple months
Every CYL8 hero is cool in their way, but Felix is so disgustingly broken that it pushes them out of the spotlight.
This book hasn't ended yet.
wdym Emmeryn underrated, I see her every like 2 or 3 battles in my aetherraid defense
Rosado
I find M!L!Alear to be overrated
so, what you're saying is that alear is a rated unit
If i give mine, Rearmed Reinhardt is kinda underrated it's because he only has an Arcane Thunder. Like you said, Zeshado, i gave my Rearmed Reinhardt an Arcane Euphoria as well, so he's okay for me, i also think that Fallen Nergal has been rated as a underrated unit since the release of Fallen Nergal was okay for a decent amount of time, but as the more and more harder hitter units came out Fallen Nergal became so underrated. That his PRF weapon doesn't do a lot of damage..
Nergal was widely considered like Top 10 in the game lmao.
Definitely not overrated
@@MedhaosFEH Um, I didn't say overrated. I said underrated for Nergal's PRF weapon since he fell off a lot in comparison to his release date..
fogado
wasn't he the direct counter to the best far savior in the game released 1 month before?
Definitely not underrated. The only thing I could see him really being underrated in is just what roles he’s good in.
