The winner of the CYL 2nd poll was Hector, one of the protagonists of Fire Emblem the Blazing Sword. The latter would be more unique for Robin but either would work. Grima could be a red mage, a class used often for dark mages, and allows there to be a Robin for each colour of mage alternatively, the dragon aspect of Grima could be played up by making Grima a red or green dragon. As for how Grima would differ from both versions of Robin, there are two ways. Visually, to avoid the gender issue, Grima could have their hood up just like Robin often did and thus the gender becomes unknown, while also representing the iconic look of the avatar that inspired the summoner in Heroes. Obviously, Grima as the legendary fell dragon, as well as another form of Robin, is perfect for this legendary hero position and to add to this, Grima came up in the top 100 Fire Emblem characters in the 2nd CYL poll so it shows they are popular. While many think of Grima as the big dragon itself, they can take on their Robin form and we see this both in the game and in much promotional material. In the story, it is revealed that Robin is the avatar of the fell Dragon Grima and in Lucina’s timeline Grima has destroyed the world. Grima RobinĬhrom isn’t the only protagonist of Awakening as we have the avatar Robin, arguably the more popular hero. However he is not nearly as iconic as Marth, nor as popular. While Marth always has to have the Falchion, the shield could provide a new set of skills to make him different, like giving him a higher defence or a counter.Īs a side note, Great Lord Chrom also wields the Fire Emblem/Falchion combo and could also work as a Legendary Hero. This shield is marketed a lot but never on Marth, yet this might be the best time to bring in that version of him. While most depictions of Marth don’t show this, he actually wields a shield in his games and that shield is actually the Fire Emblem itself. The big question now is how to change him up and well, there is one big factor of Marth that many fans don’t realise because it rarely gets focused on: Marth has a shield. So this popularity may do the same thing for Marth. His original form, which is already in Heroes came fifth overall but his King form from the sequel came 11th in the male rankings and the highest voted alternate character. Well, in the second CYL poll Marth has done the exact same thing. The latter got used as the first Legendary Hero and this may be why. In the 1st poll, Ike got into the top 10 males twice, both his original look and his Vanguard look. This alone is enough to warrant his appearance as a Legendary Hero but there is another factor and that is the Choose Your Legends poll. In-universe, Marth is also known as the Hero-King and an influential icon in Fire Emblem Awakening, the most successful game released. Marth was many players first experience with Fire Emblem, both as the very first protagonist as well as the first character to appear in Super Smash Bros., where many westerners first discovered the franchise. The first hero on our list is by far the most important character in the entire series. So that’s what this article is about today, I want to highlight a view possibilities for future Legendary Heroes that we might see, talk about why they are likely and how they may differ from their original counterpart. This debut opened up a new possibility for Legendary Heroes, stronger versions of already existing characters. Once January came to an end though, Intelligent Systems threw a curveball and revealed the new Legendary Hero was not an original character and instead Vanguard Ike, his strongest form from Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn. These two created a precedent that the Legendary Hero would always be original, especially since there were still five more original characters who were not playable yet, like Veronica and Bruno. The first Legendary Hero was the original character Fjorm, who was also given away for free in the story, and then the second Legendary Hero released in December was Gunnthra, another original character. Alongside each of these banners, however, came a brand new character known as the ‘Legendary Hero’. Rewind to last November however and we are introduced to the Legendary Banner, a special banner with lots of focus characters and all have an 8% chance of appearing, as opposed to the usual 3.5% chance. Throughout the year Intelligent Systems released various timed banners with extra rare heroes that many believed we would never get another chance at. Future Legendary Summons in Fire Emblem Heroesįire Emblem Heroes is now a year old and still going strong.
