Which CYL6 unit do you like the most? 💫 MY CYL6 Summoning - ua-cam.com/video/1ZqJE3P8iXI/v-deo.html 🎬More Banner Reviews! - ua-cam.com/play/PL-UHDqcwcC4j4g-sUpi274al9QP6S3lz-.html
It's always impressive seeing how far out you go with the choose your legends heroes analysis each year. What I really like the most out of this year is that each hero is amazing in their own right with their own advantages, there's no loser this time around, and everyone can pretty much benefit without needing to summon a specific unit. I also do like how you did a side by side comparison between of the pros and cons between the heroes this years, it helps give a better idea on who to summon for or if you need a specific unit on your team.
After testing out each hero, I can say, without a doubt, all the heroes are great. This makes me hope IS continues to do this for CYL7 because everyone pretty much gets a good unit on their team, regardless of which hero you choose or prefer. As for which hero to summon? The answer: all of the above.
I feel like this year there is no definitive “loser” in this choose your legends event and the only thing that can make anyone be considered a “winner” of the batch is just each and every person’s barracks and what they need.
I saved 600 orbs for Chrom since he was announced and only got 3 of him, which was very disappointing as I wanted to get as many merges as possible (I had so so many pity breakers of non CYL units), but I did get at least one of everyone which is my goal every CYL banner (I still have one of everyone including back from the first banner) so I'm keeping the tradition. I hope to collect more B!Chrom before the banner ends! Thanks PM1 for the great content as usual! 💖💕
1 free pick and 1 free spark. You're telling me you only summoned one naturally? Don't buy it. 100% convinced you weren't sniping blues. Got all 11 Tiki's with 700 orbs sniping green only. I expected about 900-1,000 so definitely got lucky this time but I really doubt you only summoned 1 out of 600 if you were sniping blues orbs. My guess is that you went for one of each and then always summoned all 5 orbs for the discounted prices.
I got a +atk Seliph while summoning (and a +atk B!Marianne too for some reason), so I just sparked Chrom and free summoned Tiki. This video is gonna be so useful to use them effectively, thank you for all your effort as always PM1.
Finally here with the nitty gritty builds, I’ve been waiting! I’ve been wondering if galeforce would work for Chrom, but Luna has worked great for me so far. Good to know I’ve made the right choice 😊 👍
I said this once and I'll say it again, love how fairly balanced the heroes are for CYL6, all of them are very good in their own right. While I do agree that Chrom and Seliph do appear to be better than Byleth and A!Tiki, all the heroes are still pretty solid this time, and there's really no true winner that overshadows the other heroes like B!Edelgard and B!Eirika. Everyone pretty much wins.
I feel like this time around, the units are actually all solid and there’s not really a stand out loser in many ways. Still deciding for myself as I pull, but I’m glad you made this video and also showing gameplay of each topic point for each unit. Thanks PM1!
Really great to see why B!Byleth and B!Chrom are really good Brave Units. Thats why i invested on them on this banner. Although i still dont have them merged to +10 i still like to use them because of their skills. I will save my orbs for the rerun and Hero Fest. Hopefully i can get B!Byleth and Chrom fully merged.
@@The-mw3hc May have been late by four months to reply, but he really doesn't want that Silver Sword. Especially when it's the Tyrfing itself that provides Miracle.
I like B!Byleth the best and ended up getting 1 on the way to the spark (+ a Yuri), sparked 1, and got the free pull 1. I think all the units are pretty good, but nothing super crazy and I'm not particularly attached to any of these characters. Chrom is interesting, but kind of a pain to set up and I already +10d B!Eirika, Seliph is pretty similar to L!Nanna (who I have a copy of already), and idk how well Tiki will actually perform, as an infantry omnitank. Byleth seems quite strong, fun, and fairly unique at this point. I think her art is the best of the bunch as well. I wouldn't mind 1 copy of the others, but I'm sure I'll pick those up by chance in the future.
Thank you for this video! I enjoyed your analysis on them! I love all four them, but, Brave Tiki ended up being my personal favorite with how good she is on her base skills and I have mine with Distant Counter (D) and she tanks a lot.
What a great way to start my Friday evening - with a 47min vid from PM1. You're awesome mate. Thank you for the analysis and always good vibes. Have a great day too.
Thank you for making this video, I was admittedly overwhelmed by how cool all 4 heroes are (esp to my lore heart) and seeing their practical application and possible combos was awesome. Keep coming out with this content, great stuff!
Thanks man, the in depth analysis video sure came quickly! I Sparked Seliph on 3rd time and also chose him from the free summon to +1. Now I have all 4 CYL +1.
I really like the ‘who to summon?’ breakdown you added at the end of the video. The chart is really easy to understand even though I summoned for all the units lol
I'm really happy with the units this time! They are all so great. After watching this video I think I'll choose B! Chrom as my free pick, and spark B! Tiki as I was able to summon get B! Seliph and B! F! Byleth and am just a few summons away from a spark. As always, thanks for all of builds and fun ideas!
Great video, as usual. I personally love B!F!Byleth, colorless mage flier. Unique class. I love the the way she can perpetually loop her special. I love her damage reduction that can’t be pierced by deadeye, lethality or sublime heaven. And thanks for showing all the matchups. I love her new B skill.
I saved for Seliph and I only need one more copy to +10 him, I'm so happy he turned out to be this good and I hope I can get the last copy I need before the banner fades.
I put Close Counter on Byleth just for kicks and it's been really funny to see her retaliate everything. Not really something for AR or Arena but kinda satiesfying while clearing general content in the game. Will definitely try out some of those builds tho. Thank you for the video and thank you in general for your hard work!
Definitely a pretty great set of units. I’m just personally glad my girl Eirika is still gonna be relevant and I look forward to her refine next year. Of course my favorites get too priority for the free summon and spark, in the case of F!Byleth and Tiki respectively.
I really like that you do combat tests against meta units in your video now :D Well done PM1! I'm gonna go for Seliph on my free draw and Byleth for Spark
Just wanna say something about 41:51, Tiki doesn't need Time's Pulse to fire off Icebergs at every retaliation on enemy phase. 2 CD Iceberg, enemy's hit brings it down to 1 CD, then her weapon provides -1 CD so she can fire off an Iceberg right away. You can even do it with Glacies with breath support. I've tried both of these specials on my own Tiki and it works in every single round of combat in enemy phase even without Time's Pulse. Regardless, thank you so much for this video! I already did my summons and got all of them but I really appreciate the effort and insight you put into this. I really learned a lot from this. Thanks!
If you wanted to run Glacies without Breath support, do you think Time Pulse would be worth it? Or would you stick with a lower CD special and Def/Res Menace? I'd like to hear more opinions before I start feeding my Tiki more skills instinctively.
@@TrxPsyche Imo it's a pretty good C skill for her still. You can fire off one instant Iceberg in player phase with it, which is pretty good for a tank like Tiki. As for Glacies with TP on enemy phase, I think it wouldn't be that worth it because you only trigger Glacies on your first hit for one combat and you have to rely on follow up attacks to trigger it on subsequent combats. Leaves her pretty susceptible to NFU.
@@darmon5735 Yeah, after some usage I agree. Not only that, but unless you have multiple sources of res buffs, losing Def/Res Menace makes her loose the bit of extra damage that Glacies would give over Iceberg. So Iceberg + D/R Menace I think is the best way to go. At that point her only issue becomes being susceptible to Guard slowing her specials down.
Really great examples shown to highlight what you were talking about! Good job. Unlike most years, I didn't have a character preference this year, I picked Chom and Tiki, but so far Chrom is more difficult to use. I doubt I'll get enough orbs to try to get one of each, but Seliph would be the next I'd want to try. Hel carries me even now through a lot of PvE content, and the survival you demonstrated here was amazing.
It just hit me that the reason why Brave Seliph’s effects are based on movement is because Genealogy’s maps are so large lol. At least that’s my theory.
Thanks for the great overview! I've already got Byleth by luck so now I have to decide between Chrom and Tiki.. Good to hear that no matter who I choose I'll have a great unit
what a beast of a video, great work pm1 👌 really appreciate how thorough you are, as a newer player some of the weapon/skill descriptions can get confusing.
I swear these heroes are slowly turning into Yu-Gi-Oh! cards with their effects and interactions with the opposing heroes' skills xD 46:19 i do enjoy your analyses, it really helps casuals like me a lot. Your hard work is really appreciated :')
I've been waiting for this! Very much look forward to the long analysis. Chrom: I like his PRF assist because of its utility, and as different effects come in the future, it will age even better, personally I still like B!Eirika more in PvE stuff since she has more immediate power and is not as reliant on others as B!Chrom, but B!Chrom certainly has more potential than her Byleth: The amount of special cooldown reduction is pretty insane, since I don't see much ways to counter it, I kinda wish Deadeye and Lethality could counter it since it's pretty insane already, but I suppose a flier is a check to V!Chrom now lol, Byleth single handedly bringing back Vantage strats is pretty cool, although the one weakness is obviously is that she doesn't pierce through damage reduction herself Seliph: He's definitely one of the less overwhelming units in this batch of CYL, but he's still pretty threatening and someone I would not want to enemy phase. I think for now, he has some longevity since there is no skills or units that directly takes away Miracle yet, which might come soon, but for now, he's definitely enjoying his time under the sun Tiki: I would say she is the underwhelming of the bunch, since in a meta of Save tanks, an Infantry melee tank doesn't fit the best, but she is still hard to kill, and a tank that is basically immune to Guard effects is pretty good, if there are Dragon inheritable specials, I can see her be even better, but for now, she's definitely not as good as the other 3 imo Thanks for the amazing analysis video! I especially love these long ones, and the added footage is absolutely amazing as well to showcase their unique effects, top tier content
I managed to +10 chrom with 1400 f2p orbs, and I love his unique play style. He is my final f2p project before resp. Lon qu comes, a good way to end a 5.5 year long f2p run
Thank you @Phoenixmaster1 for the excellent video! I learned a lot from the research you made and I know now much more about how to better use these units.
Great analysis video! I like how each unit has their own unique playstyle and are all extremely powerful in their own right. I think my favorite units that I have been playing around with would be Brave Seliph and Female Byleth. It actually makes me want to try out AR to have fun with them in more game modes XD, which I think is impressive for someone who doesn't like playing competitively.
im so happy. i saved about 1100 orbs for cyl and on the first day i got my tiki to +8. few days later i got the last two copies. now i have a +10 tiki. i run her with basekit, except iceberg and DC seal. i dance her up with fallen ninian which makes her a super strong EP unit. the only thing that should stop her retaliating with iceberg is a combo of tempo and guard, and maybe some units you mentiond in the video. :P was definitely worth to save up to get my very first 5* exclusive +10 unit ^^
You put so much effort into every video. In such videos, you pour your soul and tactical mind. I am so impressed. Thank you so-so much! I am so glad I've pulled after sparking with a relatively high rate for Seliph. He will be so fun to use. And Chrom. And the girls. =3
This is the first CYL that I will tell people to get all 4 of the heroes. Stat sticks will grow old very quickly ( see: CYL6 ), but all 4 this CYL are very powerful and will stand the test of time, because they have gimmicks only they can do. There’s no Guard/ anti special counter to A!Tiki because of her unique interaction, Chrom can copy a million stats and become terminator, Seliph will without fail kill you because of built in miracle and NFU, teach is the ultimate vantage hero / windsweep nuker. You can outspeed their NFU in the future sure but not their special quirks
My speculation going into the video. Chrom: best unit of the batch but not easiest to get the most out of. Easily has the most longevity due to his ability. Maybe not as useful to players with a maxed B!Eirikia though, but they don't fully overlap either. Seliph: next best unit. By far the easiest to use. Also complimentary to Chrom. Probably the next longest viable unit due to this too. A bit of overlap with his father's legendary unit. Tie: Byleth and Tiki Byleth: a great unit but not one that fits into the current meta but definitely has a niche. Tiki: as a user of a +10 H!F!Grima (who is also an omnitank green dragon) I know how deadly red nfu units are... and a lot are dragon effective too. Also she definitely competes with near/distant save armor tanks. She will be better at max investment than my +10 Grima but due to her popularity she can and will increase the amount of counters for green dragon omnitanks. Which in turn will make all such green dragon omnitanks less viable. I've already seen the uptake in these red sword units on teams. So while good, her popularity dooms her to have more players planning against her too.
Holy shit, I feel so smart, I gave Byleth the max investment fodder you suggested before I watched this video, feels good to know I can come up with good builds on my own LOL
As a +10 Tiki user, i feel that the speed build is highly underrated. Speed Stacking makes matchups like NFU V!Chrom & Volke so much better while also blocking out auto follow ups from units like V!Lif & Naga's divine fang
Amazing video, PM1. Thanks for your hard work. I just made full circles in the banner to reach the spark and then free picked the one I didn't got by summoning. So I sparked our boy B! Seliph, free picked B! Chrom and got a B! Tiki on the way. Pretty good stuff. I've been looking for a good galeforce initiator for Light season and now I think either one these two cavaliers fit that role, but whenever I can free my Light season teams from the forced 4 mythics comps, Chrom will shine bright by getting NFU and everything else Velouria will be giving to my Ash. It's terrible saying it like this, but I can't wait to get rid of Mila haha
1200 and something orbs later I got at least three copies of each, while aiming for B!Tiki later on, I only managed to get her to +4, well this CYL while somewhat controversial, was rather great mechanically, they all are so beautiful and powerful.
I pulled for everyone in this Banner this is actually the first choose your Legends Brave hero Banner that interested me and made me pull all of the units in this Banner, my Brave Seliph is now +3 I believe I got him on my second Spark I got Chrom on my first Spark and I had around 386 orbs to use solely on this banner. With 84 left I am now satisfied Edit: i chose Seliph as my 1st free 5*
It’s interesting to note that the Clash skill descriptions changed from “number of spaces moved by whoever initiated” to “number of spaces from the starting position to the final position by whoever initiated”. So if you’re two spaces away from an enemy, but you try to loop around the enemy using four spaces, but you’re still two spaces away from your starting position. It’ll only count X as 2 not 4.
I mostly watched this to think of more ideas for B!Tiki, since it was actually pretty difficult to come up with a set that was overall better than her base kit, especially since I'm simply playing casually with a full Tiki Family squad of OG Young Tiki, B!Tiki, H!Tiki and Naga. I would have used S!Young Tiki instead of Naga, but I don't have the exact skills I need to push her up any higher than I currently have her. Glad I was able to squeak out getting the DC seal before the Tempest Trials ended though, it helps B!Tiki a ton, and makes her go from a pretty nice enemy phase tank, to a enemy phase tank that presses the nuke button. Currently got her +3, and I'm going for more.
For B!Chrom a unit I havent seen anyone talk about is Winter Altina, Giving Chrom vantage is terrifyingly powerful in game modes like summoner duels 😁!
During the trailer, i thought Byleth was OP until i realized all her weaknesses. Because her damage reduction is on her special attack, Flash/can't counter effects won't have her special/damage reduction. Brave weapons are another weakness. Anything can can beat her in a speed check won't trigger B slot which won't trigger special. And, yeah, Hardy Bearing.
Well, with her base kit, there’s few if any ranged nukes who could consistently put speed her, so her B skill’s consistency isn’t really an issue. And brave weapons are a bane for everyone in this CYL, and most units in the game, so you can’t really fault her for a weakness that everyone shares. Her only significant issue is the Flash effect, but given that almost everyone nowadays prefers Trace or NFU over Windsweep in almost every situation, I wouldn’t say it’s a common weakness. Almost all of her encounters with Flash effects will be against staffs, who are almost certainly not going to double her and also have terrible player phase damage with the exception of B!Camilla, B!Veronica, and maybe 1 or 2 others. Basically, there’s maybe a handful of ranged units that could contest her speed check, brave weapons are the bane of everyone not just her, and she 99% of her Flash encounters will be against staffs with low damage output.
They are all super strong while being balanced, probably my favorite CYL yet. All of them are likable too. Chrom and Seliph have a bit of an edge over Female Brave Byleth, Chrom more so. But ultimately Seliph is probably the most fun in my eyes and my personal favorite.
BTW, you don't need to run iceberg with times pulse since the foe's first attack will charge it down from to 1,then hér weapon's in-combat special spiral makes it ready for her
me a lbyleth lover seeing brave fbyleth: sad noises me who also adores using nanna: stonks brave chrom is super fun! though ive only just trained him up. maybe i can use catria or some other user with niche skill things to make cool shenanigans.. we shall see

Chrom, though Seliph is a very close second
Tiki gang
B!Chrom: The Snowballer
B!Seliph: The Undying
B!Tiki: The Immovable
B!FByleth: The Initiative
Change Chrom’s name and this is perfect
I especially love FByleth, lol
It's always impressive seeing how far out you go with the choose your legends heroes analysis each year. What I really like the most out of this year is that each hero is amazing in their own right with their own advantages, there's no loser this time around, and everyone can pretty much benefit without needing to summon a specific unit. I also do like how you did a side by side comparison between of the pros and cons between the heroes this years, it helps give a better idea on who to summon for or if you need a specific unit on your team.
PM1 is singlehandedly keeping me interested in the game.
After testing out each hero, I can say, without a doubt, all the heroes are great. This makes me hope IS continues to do this for CYL7 because everyone pretty much gets a good unit on their team, regardless of which hero you choose or prefer. As for which hero to summon? The answer: all of the above.
Brave Chrom stays true to the bonds he forged, even with heroes from other worlds. That is true power.
Love me some Google Chrom; love all four units really; and I put them on the same team...
So what your saying is, the real strongest unit is the friends Chrom made along the way.
I feel like this year there is no definitive “loser” in this choose your legends event and the only thing that can make anyone be considered a “winner” of the batch is just each and every person’s barracks and what they need.

I hope to collect more B!Chrom before the banner ends! Thanks PM1 for the great content as usual! 💖💕
I got an August pitybreaker while Chrom-hunting (stupid all-colorless wheels), and realized they are a bonkers combo together
I got 7 of him from 300 so I’m 🥲
1 free pick and 1 free spark. You're telling me you only summoned one naturally? Don't buy it. 100% convinced you weren't sniping blues. Got all 11 Tiki's with 700 orbs sniping green only. I expected about 900-1,000 so definitely got lucky this time but I really doubt you only summoned 1 out of 600 if you were sniping blues orbs. My guess is that you went for one of each and then always summoned all 5 orbs for the discounted prices.
I got a +atk Seliph while summoning (and a +atk B!Marianne too for some reason), so I just sparked Chrom and free summoned Tiki.
This video is gonna be so useful to use them effectively, thank you for all your effort as always PM1.
7:44 PM1 forgets Askr here, who provides Chrom effectively spectrum +8.
Got seliph to +8 and been using him in summoner duels with the hit and run build, dude is unstoppable lmao

Thanks PM1!
had to +10 brave tiki right away, day 1. took 1064 orbs in total
47 minute PM1 video, lets go!! Been waiting for this one, super exciting stuff!
I know Brave Chrom requires some setup but I played around with Bonuses like Dominance and omg it's ridiculous lol.
Really great to see why B!Byleth and B!Chrom are really good Brave Units.
Thats why i invested on them on this banner.
Although i still dont have them merged to +10 i still like to use them because of their skills. I will save my orbs for the rerun and Hero Fest. Hopefully i can get B!Byleth and Chrom fully merged.
I’m loving the use of the menu theme from Xenoblade Chronicles 3 PM1!!!
it should be illegal for a menu theme to be THAT GOOD!!
@@Pheonixmaster1 They didn’t even have to make a menu theme but they did and I could listen to it until the end of time
I’m just happy they did seliph justice for once
Though I do wish seliph had Sigurd’s silver sword
@@The-mw3hc May have been late by four months to reply, but he really doesn't want that Silver Sword. Especially when it's the Tyrfing itself that provides Miracle.
Loving the addition of the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 music at the end!
Wow I read Chroms bonus as bonus doubler and unity. Not a bonus based on how many status effects are affecting him. Thanks for the clarification!
I like B!Byleth the best and ended up getting 1 on the way to the spark (+ a Yuri), sparked 1, and got the free pull 1.
I think all the units are pretty good, but nothing super crazy and I'm not particularly attached to any of these characters.

Now this Is what ive been waiting for !
FINALLY! Thank you so much for this video PM1!!
Great video! Thanks for helping me choose.
Thank you for making this video, I was admittedly overwhelmed by how cool all 4 heroes are (esp to my lore heart) and seeing their practical application and possible combos was awesome. Keep coming out with this content, great stuff!
Absolutely great video! Ngl, I spent more time theorycrafting a busted Yuri for Chrom to 'To Change Fate' than I did for my own Chrom build
Thanks man, the in depth analysis video sure came quickly! I Sparked Seliph on 3rd time and also chose him from the free summon to +1. Now I have all 4 CYL +1.
I really like the ‘who to summon?’ breakdown you added at the end of the video. The chart is really easy to understand even though I summoned for all the units lol
Thanks for the super thanks! I think I will keep it for all other banner reviews too if people like it a lot :D
I'm really happy with the units this time! They are all so great.
After watching this video I think I'll choose B! Chrom as my free pick, and spark B! Tiki as I was able to summon get B! Seliph and B! F! Byleth and am just a few summons away from a spark. As always, thanks for all of builds and fun ideas!
Great video, as usual. I personally love B!F!Byleth, colorless mage flier. Unique class. I love the the way she can perpetually loop her special. I love her damage reduction that can’t be pierced by deadeye, lethality or sublime heaven. And thanks for showing all the matchups. I love her new B skill.
I saved for Seliph and I only need one more copy to +10 him, I'm so happy he turned out to be this good and I hope I can get the last copy I need before the banner fades.
The little demo clips are really good! Helps keep track of these PRFs with +4 effects
Thank you, I am glad that you liked it :D
This is a long one! But I love it! I can never decide which unit to pick.
I put Close Counter on Byleth just for kicks and it's been really funny to see her retaliate everything. Not really something for AR or Arena but kinda satiesfying while clearing general content in the game.
Will definitely try out some of those builds tho. Thank you for the video and thank you in general for your hard work!
What is with the weird music during Seliphs explanation??
Ty been waiting for the Chrom builds 🥰
Definitely a pretty great set of units.
I’m just personally glad my girl Eirika is still gonna be relevant and I look forward to her refine next year.
Of course my favorites get too priority for the free summon and spark, in the case of F!Byleth and Tiki respectively.
Hopefully Analysis on Jeralt soon too? I wanna see your opinion on him
Hey PM1, may I ask why there is loud music during the build analysis sections? It makes it difficult to listen to you.
Thanks for this, PM1! You really clarify the best ways to use these good units. We all appreciate your efforts. 👌
I really like that you do combat tests against meta units in your video now :D Well done PM1!
I'm gonna go for Seliph on my free draw and Byleth for Spark

Dang, I feel like a lot of people were sleeping on Seliph, but I'm shocked at his versatility in builds and roles! I don't think I can pick just one!
Really great examples shown to highlight what you were talking about! Good job. Unlike most years, I didn't have a character preference this year, I picked Chom and Tiki, but so far Chrom is more difficult to use. I doubt I'll get enough orbs to try to get one of each, but Seliph would be the next I'd want to try.

It just hit me that the reason why Brave Seliph’s effects are based on movement is because Genealogy’s maps are so large lol. At least that’s my theory.
Yeah, same with Legendary Sigurd
FE4 is known as the Horse Emblem after all.
Thanks for the great overview! I've already got Byleth by luck so now I have to decide between Chrom and Tiki.. Good to hear that no matter who I choose I'll have a great unit
Chrom is the one I prefer here and I sparked him! Thx so much for your hard work, always high quality!! Bravissimo!! 😄
Great video! I love the background Xenoblade menu music at the end! I am loving that amazing game by the way!
Thanks and SAME!!!
Who else was holding off on summoning until this review was up 😏
I wasn’t
I’d get Chrom even if he was the worst unit on this banner.
I absolutely was
@@maikayee246 I went for chrom too 🤗
what a beast of a video, great work pm1 👌 really appreciate how thorough you are, as a newer player some of the weapon/skill descriptions can get confusing.
I swear these heroes are slowly turning into Yu-Gi-Oh! cards with their effects and interactions with the opposing heroes' skills xD
46:19 i do enjoy your analyses, it really helps casuals like me a lot. Your hard work is really appreciated :')
I've been waiting for this! Very much look forward to the long analysis.
Chrom: I like his PRF assist because of its utility, and as different effects come in the future, it will age even better, personally I still like B!Eirika more in PvE stuff since she has more immediate power and is not as reliant on others as B!Chrom, but B!Chrom certainly has more potential than her
Byleth: The amount of special cooldown reduction is pretty insane, since I don't see much ways to counter it, I kinda wish Deadeye and Lethality could counter it since it's pretty insane already, but I suppose a flier is a check to V!Chrom now lol, Byleth single handedly bringing back Vantage strats is pretty cool, although the one weakness is obviously is that she doesn't pierce through damage reduction herself
Seliph: He's definitely one of the less overwhelming units in this batch of CYL, but he's still pretty threatening and someone I would not want to enemy phase. I think for now, he has some longevity since there is no skills or units that directly takes away Miracle yet, which might come soon, but for now, he's definitely enjoying his time under the sun
Tiki: I would say she is the underwhelming of the bunch, since in a meta of Save tanks, an Infantry melee tank doesn't fit the best, but she is still hard to kill, and a tank that is basically immune to Guard effects is pretty good, if there are Dragon inheritable specials, I can see her be even better, but for now, she's definitely not as good as the other 3 imo
Thanks for the amazing analysis video! I especially love these long ones, and the added footage is absolutely amazing as well to showcase their unique effects, top tier content
I managed to +10 chrom with 1400 f2p orbs, and I love his unique play style. He is my final f2p project before resp. Lon qu comes, a good way to end a 5.5 year long f2p run
44:06 That Xenoblade Chronicles 3 menu music is sooooo good
Ah, here’s the info I was waiting on.
Thank you @Phoenixmaster1 for the excellent video! I learned a lot from the research you made and I know now much more about how to better use these units.
Man, your analysis videos never disappoint, great great work!
Great analysis video! I like how each unit has their own unique playstyle and are all extremely powerful in their own right. I think my favorite units that I have been playing around with would be Brave Seliph and Female Byleth. It actually makes me want to try out AR to have fun with them in more game modes XD, which I think is impressive for someone who doesn't like playing competitively.
I was already going from Brave Chrom. I was even lucky enough to pull two Chroms from one summoning circle.
im so happy. i saved about 1100 orbs for cyl and on the first day i got my tiki to +8. few days later i got the last two copies. now i have a +10 tiki. i run her with basekit, except iceberg and DC seal. i dance her up with fallen ninian which makes her a super strong EP unit. the only thing that should stop her retaliating with iceberg is a combo of tempo and guard, and maybe some units you mentiond in the video. :P
was definitely worth to save up to get my very first 5* exclusive +10 unit ^^
You put so much effort into every video. In such videos, you pour your soul and tactical mind. I am so impressed. Thank you so-so much! I am so glad I've pulled after sparking with a relatively high rate for Seliph. He will be so fun to use. And Chrom. And the girls. =3
I love the fun you have with phrases like, "Brave Byleth schools her foes..." Cheers, PM1!
This is the first CYL that I will tell people to get all 4 of the heroes. Stat sticks will grow old very quickly ( see: CYL6 ), but all 4 this CYL are very powerful and will stand the test of time, because they have gimmicks only they can do. There’s no Guard/ anti special counter to A!Tiki because of her unique interaction, Chrom can copy a million stats and become terminator, Seliph will without fail kill you because of built in miracle and NFU, teach is the ultimate vantage hero / windsweep nuker. You can outspeed their NFU in the future sure but not their special quirks
My speculation going into the video.
Chrom: best unit of the batch but not easiest to get the most out of. Easily has the most longevity due to his ability. Maybe not as useful to players with a maxed B!Eirikia though, but they don't fully overlap either.
Seliph: next best unit. By far the easiest to use. Also complimentary to Chrom. Probably the next longest viable unit due to this too. A bit of overlap with his father's legendary unit.
Tie: Byleth and Tiki
Byleth: a great unit but not one that fits into the current meta but definitely has a niche.
Tiki: as a user of a +10 H!F!Grima (who is also an omnitank green dragon) I know how deadly red nfu units are... and a lot are dragon effective too. Also she definitely competes with near/distant save armor tanks. She will be better at max investment than my +10 Grima but due to her popularity she can and will increase the amount of counters for green dragon omnitanks. Which in turn will make all such green dragon omnitanks less viable. I've already seen the uptake in these red sword units on teams. So while good, her popularity dooms her to have more players planning against her too.
I just went with Seliph because FE 4 bias haha
(Also I see you putting the amazing menu music at the end)
Holy shit, I feel so smart, I gave Byleth the max investment fodder you suggested before I watched this video, feels good to know I can come up with good builds on my own LOL
fantastic content, thank you for all your hard work!!
Awesome analysis, thank you for all your effort!
As a +10 Tiki user, i feel that the speed build is highly underrated. Speed Stacking makes matchups like NFU V!Chrom & Volke so much better while also blocking out auto follow ups from units like V!Lif & Naga's divine fang
I was lucky enough to free summon both Brave Tiki and Chrom, and then for my free pick I chose Brave Byleth! Amazing video PM1!
Amazing work! Thank you PM1!
Amazing video, PM1. Thanks for your hard work. I just made full circles in the banner to reach the spark and then free picked the one I didn't got by summoning. So I sparked our boy B! Seliph, free picked B! Chrom and got a B! Tiki on the way. Pretty good stuff. I've been looking for a good galeforce initiator for Light season and now I think either one these two cavaliers fit that role, but whenever I can free my Light season teams from the forced 4 mythics comps, Chrom will shine bright by getting NFU and everything else Velouria will be giving to my Ash. It's terrible saying it like this, but I can't wait to get rid of Mila haha
1200 and something orbs later I got at least three copies of each, while aiming for B!Tiki later on, I only managed to get her to +4, well this CYL while somewhat controversial, was rather great mechanically, they all are so beautiful and powerful.
I pulled for everyone in this Banner this is actually the first choose your Legends Brave hero Banner that interested me and made me pull all of the units in this Banner, my Brave Seliph is now +3 I believe I got him on my second Spark I got Chrom on my first Spark and I had around 386 orbs to use solely on this banner.
With 84 left I am now satisfied
Edit: i chose Seliph as my 1st free 5*
Thanks for the byleths builds :)
I had to stop playing (just don’t have the time anymore) but I had to watch and see how these units turned out.
Thx PM1
Yup chrom all the way baby.
It’s interesting to note that the Clash skill descriptions changed from “number of spaces moved by whoever initiated” to “number of spaces from the starting position to the final position by whoever initiated”. So if you’re two spaces away from an enemy, but you try to loop around the enemy using four spaces, but you’re still two spaces away from your starting position. It’ll only count X as 2 not 4.
Got a +spd Byleth immediately on my 6th summon after watching the Byleth section! Excited to use!
Congratulations 🎉 :)
I mostly watched this to think of more ideas for B!Tiki, since it was actually pretty difficult to come up with a set that was overall better than her base kit, especially since I'm simply playing casually with a full Tiki Family squad of OG Young Tiki, B!Tiki, H!Tiki and Naga. I would have used S!Young Tiki instead of Naga, but I don't have the exact skills I need to push her up any higher than I currently have her. Glad I was able to squeak out getting the DC seal before the Tempest Trials ended though, it helps B!Tiki a ton, and makes her go from a pretty nice enemy phase tank, to a enemy phase tank that presses the nuke button. Currently got her +3, and I'm going for more.
What's with the music over the B Seliph build section?
For B!Chrom a unit I havent seen anyone talk about is Winter Altina, Giving Chrom vantage is terrifyingly powerful in game modes like summoner duels 😁!
During the trailer, i thought Byleth was OP until i realized all her weaknesses. Because her damage reduction is on her special attack, Flash/can't counter effects won't have her special/damage reduction. Brave weapons are another weakness. Anything can can beat her in a speed check won't trigger B slot which won't trigger special. And, yeah, Hardy Bearing.
Well, with her base kit, there’s few if any ranged nukes who could consistently put speed her, so her B skill’s consistency isn’t really an issue. And brave weapons are a bane for everyone in this CYL, and most units in the game, so you can’t really fault her for a weakness that everyone shares. Her only significant issue is the Flash effect, but given that almost everyone nowadays prefers Trace or NFU over Windsweep in almost every situation, I wouldn’t say it’s a common weakness. Almost all of her encounters with Flash effects will be against staffs, who are almost certainly not going to double her and also have terrible player phase damage with the exception of B!Camilla, B!Veronica, and maybe 1 or 2 others.
Basically, there’s maybe a handful of ranged units that could contest her speed check, brave weapons are the bane of everyone not just her, and she 99% of her Flash encounters will be against staffs with low damage output.
They are all super strong while being balanced, probably my favorite CYL yet. All of them are likable too. Chrom and Seliph have a bit of an edge over Female Brave Byleth, Chrom more so. But ultimately Seliph is probably the most fun in my eyes and my personal favorite.
Same!
Awesome video
thank u for all the hard work u be putting into these vids
Saved up orbs since january for Tiki, had 1800, managed to +10 her with 1250. Was definitely worth it, she is great.
It took me until 7.5% to FINALLY get a Brave unit (it was Byleth) and that was AFTER being broken at 5% by a PRIAM
I hate this banner..
44:06 great Xenoblade 3 song for this, love the menu theme
BTW, you don't need to run iceberg with times pulse since the foe's first attack will charge it down from to 1,then hér weapon's in-combat special spiral makes it ready for her
I got Brave Byleth(-spd, oof) and Seliph(free), good enough for me lol, thanks for the huuge video full of help, PM1!
Thanks for your effort PM1!
Thank you for this PM1!
Great showcase of the Units! Lots of good units to summon for this time!
me a lbyleth lover seeing brave fbyleth: sad noises
me who also adores using nanna: stonks
brave chrom is super fun! though ive only just trained him up. maybe i can use catria or some other user with niche skill things to make cool shenanigans.. we shall see
I was waiting for this to pick my freebie. Now I know. Thanks.
Thanks a lot for the video! Pretty useful!
