Ok so Sacred Stones and Binding Blade Christmas banner. Interesting...

How is everyone faring against Lv 9 CPU's? I went 1-1 against them at my friend's house today and have to say they are definitely a challenge, especially the new characters as I haven't had enough opportunity to play against them and get an understanding of their moves quite yet like the veteran characters.

There is so much going on in those silhouettes that I honestly have no clue.

Well here is my friend code if you are interested in trying out the Special Spiral LIke for yourself:

Obviously better if you have a high merged Legendary Ike, but Special Spiral makes him a completely insane Enemy Phase unit when he can proc Radiant Aether after taking a single hit following the first proc. Set him up against a Green unit to begin the map, let him tank a hit and clobber it with a counterattack to get his Special ready, and then just set him up in the middle of everything that isn't blue and watch him decimate. Honestly the best investment I ever made. If you need to take him on a test run, do a quick Rival Domains and add my LIke to a brigade if we are friends (are we friends in FEH?) so you can get an idea of what you are getting yourself into. I do not think you will be disappointed though.

Tibarn is a red Beast unit and Nailah is a blue Beast unit. So weapon triangle for Beast units confirmed Although it would have made more sense for Tibarn to be Blue and Nailah to be Green to play into the Laguz's weaknesses when it comes to magic (Feline Laguz weak to Fire (Red), Bird Laguz weak to Wind (Green), and Dragon Laguz weak to Thunder (Blue)). However, that is just me nitpicking in a moment that is absolutely the best news for me as a Fire Emblem fan, more specifically as a fan of the Tellius games.

Laguz in Heroes! Oh my God! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!

Played a few rounds at my friend's place tonight, placed 1st in the three 4-player/3-stock matches we played claiming victory with Ike, Captain Falcon, and Young Link The physics definitely have a different feel to them. Also quite enjoy getting the slo-mo attack confirmations at high percents on the final stock. Actually got one with a leap-and-drift reverse Falcon Punch and maaaaaaaan was it clean.

Congrats! How's it feel to be the Champ?

I was tasked with getting Smash Ultimate for the holidays so while I was out last night between visits to the Emergency Room for my girlfriend (for those concerned, she is ok for now, trying to get specialist help but they are hesitant) I got to thinking about Smash. I thought 'I could just pick up a copy at Wal-Mart or Meijer... so then i don't need to deal with Amazon... yeah, let's do that' so I make my way there, almost got T-boned going up to Wal-Mart (I blame the lack of sleep at almost 4 am...) and picked up the physical game. So the "Ultimate" Christmas present has been secured, now to show the "Ultimate" patience and wait another 18 days to play Christmas morning.

I got into watching the Game Awards, so I'll probably not be on tonight

Doing Smash for Christmas, so... 18 more days to Smash

Welp, Laegjarn lost to Hrid Woo?

They put up a Bow Lyn banner with Axe Ike in there and I have pulled nothing but non-focus units going for my boy Ike. Two green Olwen, a female Kanna, a Dorcas, and an Alm on the same summon as one of the Olwen. Talk about regret

Aether Raids are getting to be really bad. I'm stuck at 5000 lift because the 7-turn turn limit is obnoxious to work with when trying to tiptoe around all of the Lancebreaker/Quick Pulse/Moonbow Reinhardt and Razzle Dazzle Brave Veronica, and especially bad when they stick a fifth unit in the corner, stuck behind buildings and traps that take at least two turns to break through to get to them. I guess tomorrow I'll try my Radiant Dawn team. LIke would be my main guy for anything not the listed trouble units. Soren and Micaiah would both love eating up Reinhardt's Dire Thunder with 33/42 Res respectively. Micaiah would handle Veronica's attacks pretty easily with base 42 Res, Atk/Res Bond, and Atk/Res Link and then nukes her dead twice over. Sothe would do a good job as a pseudo-Veronica with Peshkatz and Windsweep 3 (base 45 Spd + Phantom Spd 3 = 55 Spd to prevent counterattack against Melee). So that's my thoughts on that anyway.
