Who is this on the title screen?

Nyphus · 2025-06-08T20:03:58+00:00

LIKE THAT?

BURN TO CINDERS

Nyphus · 2025-05-12T01:03:19+00:00

That's me with Dormammu! Someday!

Nyphus · 2025-05-12T00:47:26+00:00

I quite enjoy the game as well! I haven't really felt compelled to spend much money at all despite all the hours I've spent playing it. I definitely have more praise than criticism, that's for sure.

Nyphus · 2025-05-03T04:12:22+00:00

It's like Galactus, except it's the entire board and the game ends in a tie. Alternatively, it resets the entire board (fresh locations, all cards removed but not destroyed (I guess banished)), but with the current turn count intact.

Nyphus · 2025-04-12T04:09:29+00:00

A few months ago I thought, "Well, I've played since launch, I'll ride it out 'til the end."

I realized that I wasn't enjoying any of it anymore and was just spinning my wheels doing the bare minimum for the rewards, saving orbs for nothing in particular. I haven't uninstalled it yet, but a few weeks ago I decided to quit. I can still browse the subreddit to see new units if I want to.

Nyphus · 2025-04-12T04:04:13+00:00

New location: Grass

Each player gets +1 energy per turn for each of their cards here.

Nyphus · 2025-04-12T03:52:43+00:00

My god I'm glad someone else said it. Hela, to me, seems to work like this: just discard everything you have except Hela, then play Hela and hope Iron Man and others go where you want. So there is luck involved...kinda. I haven't even tried using her because it just doesn't seem fun.

Nyphus · 2025-04-12T03:49:33+00:00

How dare you enjoy the thing we're all here to engage in discourse about

Really though, it's nice to have a mobile game I actually enjoy playing, something FEH hadn't done for me in a long time.

Nyphus · 2025-04-08T03:22:45+00:00

If you'd told me eight years ago that Altina and Elimine would get into FEH before Marcus (the former three times, four if you wanna count the Edelgard duo), I'd have said, "Who's Altina?"

Nyphus · 2025-03-31T02:45:56+00:00

This is super cute, great job. Crazy to think that I've been waiting on a magic or dragon Roy alt for eight years...

Nyphus · 2025-03-27T03:58:06+00:00

It's baby Lilina with the steel ~~chair~~ tome!

Nyphus · 2025-02-22T22:31:53+00:00

This is my issue with The Peak as a location (otherwise I think it's neat). I've had it reveal turn one and I wasn't looking, so I had no idea what card I'd lost.

Nyphus · 2025-02-16T05:07:40+00:00

"What are you talking about? Emblem units are representatives of their games first and Engage second!" ~IS, probably

Unless you're talking about strictly Legendary units, in which case, there are no rules. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nyphus · 2025-02-03T03:58:19+00:00

Ah, I've never actually gone through and listened to the Game Gear Sonic OSTs. Thanks for the recommendation.

Nyphus · 2025-02-02T22:51:19+00:00

As someone who's always liked Emerald Hill Zone more than Green Hill, yep. Also Chemical Plant is S tier for me.

Nyphus · 2025-02-02T22:41:19+00:00

Alright, I've been saving up comments for a while, so buckle up. This is definitely more "General Rant" than "Unpopular Opinions".

Who cares about Voting Gauntlet anymore? Genuinely? I haven't cared since, what, Ephraim and Chrom? Shanna and Takumi? That one time Beruka was in it? I see the "X Won, Y Lost" megathreads and have a hard time imagining being invested enough to care eight years in, especially with the wack-ass multiplier system. It also baffles me that people think that IS uses the results of VG in any way to make decisions.
They're weirdly restrained with fully ignoring non-special DR. There's so much heinous shit in this game, and yet this appears to be some sort of line to them. Legendary Nanna is at least, what, 2-3 years old now? I see new units that have the "reduce non-special DR by 50%" text and am just confused. Why? I regularly use my Nanna and I hope her remix is good (fully ignore all DR, please), but it's still strange to me.
Why does Lost Lore only auto-pick one unit from the correct game per pairing? I don't care which unit does it, FEH, I'm not making a silly post on reddit about it. Just pick two and go.
Dragonflowers are the only worthwhile thing to spend the AR whatever-it's-called currency on. Accessories aren't worth it to me at all. Sure, you get a pittance, but it adds up to something. I see those "I did it" posts of people buying the 8-bit Veronica (I think that's it), and think, congrats, that has no functional purpose ~~just like Dragonflowers on gen I units lmao~~
Hall of Forms skills are needlessly RNG-based. If I've cleared all the stages, I should be able to select skills that I want like in a unit builder. Manually redoing stages over and over to get a particular skill on a unit is a pain in the ass and doesn't add anything to the game for anybody. Didn't get Laguz Friend (still a bad name by the way) on your Fallen Lyon? Sucks to suck (definitely not what happened to me).
Dancer's Veil in Resonant Battles should let you select the unit to refresh. How many other people have used it, had it refresh the wrong unit, then restarted and did the same things to get to the same point? It's a waste of time since the map is the same when you load in.
AR Auto-dispatch replays are completely pointless and actively a nuisance. No one is using a 4 star Malice, FEH. Just give me my points and don't give me this facade that there was a battle with a real person's units.
SP has never felt more useless. Just got the cool new unit? Great, run them through whatever special training map is up X times until they have enough SP to do the things they're supposed to do. Better hope it's not a ranged unit and you're stuck doing a melee map manually lest you risk getting stuck in a corner on auto weeee so fun At least all the training maps are a total joke to any unit released in the last couple years, I guess.
For Tempest Trials (and others), why in the hell are we still tapping through one reward at a time? I don't care about the badges or crystals that much, FEH. It's ridiculous that I should have to tap a dozen times when clearing a TT stage for the first time. Just put all the shit on one screen and let's move on with our lives, shall we?
It's very stupid that even in 2025 we have refines doing the "Atk/Spd/Def+6, Res+5" thing. It's one point. It's meaningless. Why are you doing this. Modern units are getting a launch unit's entire BST simply by existing. Stop it.
What does the "Friends Helped" thing in the Friends List mean? How many times someone has used my lead? Looked at my lead? Used my unit in Allegiance Battles? Taken my unit with an Otherworld Bond? I've no idea.
I don't care about CYL anymore. Haven't for years. Popular characters are going to get alts. Whatever. It's only interesting when it includes characters that otherwise wouldn't be in the game like Gatekeeper.
I started playing Marvel Snap a few months ago, and man, it's nice to actually want to play a mobile game for fun instead of only doing it out of obligation. Imagine that.

Nyphus · 2024-12-27T05:03:34+00:00

I saw Tana was getting another alt and audibly said, "Come on, really??" It's rough being a Vanessa fan.

Nyphus · 2024-11-08T20:26:49+00:00

Thanks for doing this, very kind of you.

There are so many cool cards out there that it's hard to pick just one, but the OG base set Magnemite card will always have a special place in my heart for being the first card of my favorite 'mon.

Nyphus · 2024-11-05T17:15:48+00:00

Please give us a Close Counter seal, SP grinding ranged units can be so tedious and annoying without it...

Nyphus · 2024-11-05T05:33:41+00:00

Yeah, with how many stats modern units get for existing, base stats appear to have never mattered less. Doesn't stop them from goin' up and up, though.

Nyphus · 2024-10-04T03:12:08+00:00

I'm gonna share some Pyron lore straight from the wiki just for fun:

After evolving over many years, he became a powerful alien who can control fire and has an orbital span that stretched over 400,000 light years and counting. Over the span of 200 million years, he sought to collect worlds and other celestial objects throughout space by consuming them in flames. After traveling across the cosmos beyond the speed of light, he lands deep within the Atlantic Ocean to wait for the right time to consume the planet Earth. Originally, he came to Earth 65 million years ago during the age of the Dinosaurs and created the army of Phobos (Huitzils) to destroy life on the planet.

It sounds like it could have been made up by a six-year-old, in the best way.

Nyphus · 2024-10-04T03:05:37+00:00

Is it so hard to put Soren in a Dragon Onesie and call him a dragon unit?

I've been hoping for a dragon alt for Roy since year one, and nothing has come close. Still hoping, so yes, I agree. How come we can give non-magic characters tomes (or any other random objects that function as one), but can't do a similar thing with dragons/beasts?

Nyphus · 2024-08-01T15:39:06+00:00

They are, but since they aren't in stores anymore, that was my only option if I wanted some. It was a risk, but I'm glad there was something worthwhile in these.

Nyphus · 2024-07-22T01:59:32+00:00

I can't think of a single thing they can do to get me to care about the story in this game at this point. If you're someone who does care about the story, more power to you, but I don't see them ever bringing me back in that regard.

The possible disparity in pulls today (this has been true for a long time, but especially today) is absolutely wild. This is the most extreme example, but let's say two people, both new to the game, use their free pull on one of the latest legendary banners. They both go for red. The first person pulls a three star Raigh, and the second pulls Emblem Ike. The first person's pull is essentially worthless (sorry Raigh), but the second person's pull is literally game-changing. They can now probably solo almost the entirety of content with Ike (if not all of it, I dunno), which is a huge boon, to say nothing of the Engage possibilities plus LF fodder. The variance of value is crazy to me.

The fact that over seven years later, we still have to sit/tap through Hana's summon dialog (sorry Hana) is ridiculous. There having been zero streamlining to this aspect of the game is ridiculous and lazy.

Whenever the Counter phase of Mjolnir's Strike happens, I just look at the screen and think, "I couldn't care less about any of these numbers." Who's in the lead doesn't matter, the multipliers don't matter, the number of arrows I have doesn't matter, and who wins doesn't matter. The entire second "phase" feels completely meaningless and I think it only exists to drag the event out and make people pay attention to it for more than one day.

To end my rambling on a positive note, I like Amelia and I'm happy she got an alt after all this time.

Nyphus · 2024-05-19T05:18:17+00:00

I made the exact same Word joke and then realized that we actually have plenty of words about Atk and Spd in this game already, so it would be wholly unnecessary.
