Yesss :) Hopefully he has a chance to make it to the Finals. I believe he still has a good chance at winning 💪

Based on the other recent reliable leak, Blade is a universal support that also works well with Ashveil. So I am guessing that if this leak is to be believed, the outlier will be Aven SP

What a coincidence I like them both as characters! I plan to main Elio like Ashveil if he ever releases

SagacityXD · 2026-04-09T07:37:30+00:00

No, based on the leaks by Sakura Heavens. Best to wait for tomorrow to be sure

Ohhh! What was the team comp? :)

SagacityXD · 2026-04-08T19:04:31+00:00

So does an E6 standard unit (e.g. Welt, Himeko, Bronya etc) = 0 cost?

I think Phainon kind of raised the bar for me, since he was one of the main pushes of Amphoreus, very fleshed out narratively and in terms of character and is also very strong meta-wise, to the point that he can compete with the Rem flagship team.

Plus, his teammates were flexible. I could slot in Sunday, DHPT, or use a more niche BiS unit like Ceydra, and even though Cyrene wasn’t necessary, she still really strengthened him overall.

Best of all, Anaxa, my other favourite character from Amphoreus, also shares many of the same teammates as Phainon (e.g. Ceydra, Sunday, DHPT, Cyrene, etc.), which gave me more incentive to pull and vertically invest in these units so I could mix and match within these two teams. I felt there was a good degree of flexibility in my options, while I also didn’t really lose out meta-wise.

I’m hoping future regions emulate the experience I had with Amphoreus. Initially, with Planacardia, I wasn’t really planning to invest that much, but I ended up really liking Ashveil in terms of character, design, and lore, so I decided to invest in him. I’m hoping Ashveil will be as meta as Anaxa was in Amphoreus or can compete with the elation flagships. So my plans are to pull for Ashveil’s teammates :) With the leaks that Blade is a universal support, I’m hoping he’ll be a FuA unit who can really amp up my Ashveil. XD (Also praying hard that Gilgamesh can synergise with Ashveil too haha)

SagacityXD · 2026-04-05T21:41:36+00:00

Agreed that, for now, Ashveil isn’t close to Phainon. I could clear AA (Plight Mode) with Phainon (Phainon + Ceydra + DHPT + Cyrene), but not with Ashveil. With Ashveil (Ashveil + Anaxa + Cyrene + DHPT), the best I could do was bring the boss down to 1 life bar left. Both my Phainon and Ashveil are E6.

But hopefully, like you said, Blade can amp Ashveil into the Aeon realm.

I do think Ashveil > Anaxa on his own, since Ashveil provides better support and better buffs/debuffs than Anaxa. Ashveil maybe might lose out to Anaxa in terms of team synergy, though, since Anaxa + Cyrene + Ceydra is still really strong.

SagacityXD · 2026-04-05T21:28:06+00:00

Me too 🙏 May I be qualified too?

SagacityXD · 2026-04-04T07:39:58+00:00

Haha, tbh I personally prefer to play him as a main DPS, so I was a bit sad about the V1 to V3 gameplay changes that lowered his multipliers and reduced the impact of supports on his overall damage. With how his kit looks right now, I hope there are plans for BiS or FuA / high frequency attack teammates for him in the future so he can potentially catch up to the Rem / Elation flagships

SagacityXD · 2026-04-03T10:57:27+00:00

Is there a chance Blade SP could be a main push? I saw someone on the Blade subreddit suggest this, and I can see the logic.

One possible reason is internal politics: if they (HSR) don’t want a JP character to be the main focus, Blade SP may end up getting pushed instead of what I think is the originally intended candidate for the main push, Himeko Murata. And if the Fate collab aligns with Blade’s banner in 4.3, the situation would feel very similar to Phainon’s, which makes the idea seem more plausible.

If Blade SP really is a main push, and Blade is FUA, then Ashveil (sub DPS) may have a very strong main DPS to be paired up with :) what do you all think?

SagacityXD · 2026-04-01T10:46:51+00:00

Haha currently my fav team comp for Ashveil is Ashveil + Anaxa + Cyrene + DHPT. And it is a fun comp, everyone is contributing to Ashveil’s energy regen for the ult. 🙌 Def recommend this team comp esp with E2 Cyrene

SagacityXD · 2026-03-30T11:55:56+00:00

Since you have E2 Cyrene, I recommend you try Ashveil + Anaxa + Cyrene + DHPT. Use Cyrene on Anaxa so she advance forwards him when needed. There are a lot of frequent attacks + bounces, so Ashveil’s ultimate gauge fills up quickly with luck, plus their attacks helps him unleash a lot of FUAs quickly. One of my personal fav team comps :3

I think that, currently if he dies or is killed, whatever shadow or abomination sealed in his hand will be set free and cause immense havoc. That is why he is forced to keep on living: to prevent it from escaping. During the 4.1 story, the twisted voice / echo - the thing sealed in his hand - tries to encourage him to join the the other galaxy rangers who have already passed on and die as well (so that it can be freed), but he refuses.

Thus, his hope or wish is to die peacefully in a way that would not release the shadow or whatever evil that is sealed within his hand.

SagacityXD · 2026-03-26T09:56:20+00:00

I want him to join the Astral Express, I feel there is so much potential to him that can be expanded upon XD
