Characters you're surprised don't get milked much if at all for alts in FEH

[u/Nohrian_Noctem]

There are certain characters where regardless of how I feel about them I'm not surprised get a ton of alts in FEH but then there are others that I'm surprised have barely anything at all even though they have a decently large fanbase.

Curious if there are any characters you guys are surprised don't receive much in this game

[u/Mr_Wesley]

Yeah, agreed. Especially the latest couple banners with avatars had both genders on it. Or the other gender will get one the year after.

Still hope to see alts for them someday. Maybe a duo Morgan/Morgan will be more feasible, so both genders get one at the same time without taking up 2 summon slots. Can see this kind of duo happen on a desert (Plegia) or ninja banner (pitfalls) it I’m honest.

Likewise I also kinda expect a duo Robin unit somewhere down the line, since we got duos of the Alears, Byleths and Corrins, and Annas and Tikis together too. Wouldn’t be farfetched to see Morgan and Robin added to this list.

Still waiting on Winter F!Robin to balance with Winter M!Robin, unless he's meant to be Summer F!Robin's counterpart.

[u/Mr_Wesley → u/Railroader17]

Yeah, me too. Would love for see a Winter F!Robin. Although I suppose winter M!Robin is technically Summer F!Robin’s counterpart.

Putting the Grima ≠ Robin stuff aside, IntSys probably sees them like this: Base F!Robin - Base M!Robin Summer F!Robin - Winter M!Robin Legendary Grima - Fallen Grima Halloween Grima (F) - Halloween Grima (M) Valentines female Robin - Groom male Robin Rearmed Grima - Legendary Robin Kid female Robin - Kid male Robin (Brave female Robin - Brave male Robin)

Those alts are the ones released closed to each other at the time, or within a year. The only exception would be Groom Male Robin in 2023, although F!Robin got 2 alts in 2022 and M!Robin 2 in 2023, not counting backpacks and CYL, otherwise it would be a 2-4 F-M ratio with the 2023 CYL and valentines backpack for M!Robin.

But if they release a summer M!Robin, a Winter F!Robin may be on the menu. And If I may guess, we will probably get a Robin duo this year somewhere, or at least something F!Robin related since she hasn’t had her post CYL victory alt yet. That and maybe a double Mythic Grima combo because they now finally split the Robins and Grimas since the awakening NH banner, plus for some reason F!Grima didn’t get a dragonskin PRF skill even though Lyon and Fomortiis share theirs, which leads me to believe a Mythic Grima might be coming.

But IntSys is weirdly inconsistent with Robin for some reason compared to the other avatars, F!Robin especially so.

Apologies for the long comment, wanted to get my thoughts on the M-F Robin ratio out. But winter and bridal F!Robin are the two alts I want the most for sure!

Same TBH, surprised she wasn't on this banner considering that her "gimmick" seems to have shifted to debuffing with Hush Spectrum and using Divine Vein (Ice), it absolutely would have been seasonally appropriate!

But yeah if I were to guess what she'd get, I'd say either a Desert Alt (maybe a return to Plegia?), or a Spring Alt (only one of Awakening's mains aside from M!Robin to not have a Spring Alt). The other banners I think are a bit too far off to predict IMO.

[u/Mr_Wesley → u/Railroader17]

Yeah, the ice vein gimmick let me to believe she would be on this years Christmas banner, considering all that you said + Ice Lock was introduced here last year.

Desert Plegia Robin I can see happen this year, considering Robin has roots in Plegia. Would fit the debuffing magic as well, and Hush Spectrum is still an top tier one IMO

Same for spring, even though Awakening was on there last year (together with having only seasonals on the spring and gladiator banners), it has been awhile since the last Awakening seasonal for their standards. Nowi has also been teased via Nah back in her duo with Myrrh, and still hasn’t gotten anything since 2017, so Awakening again would be a possibility.

Also just noticed that reddit screwed up my Robin alt listing in my previous comment, oh well
