The best Fire Emblem games allow you to spare the more delightfully memetastic villains. A big 'F' in the chat for my boys Kempf, Hans, Riev, and especially Gomes.
@@076trankill Again, it's all trial & error. You're able to force your way through because you'll get the right RNG. Optimising it just takes dedication, not a big brain lol
This also is bugging me, there are times when units just appear to stand on the same square as others when that's not possible, could be some frame perfect bug or something
Hold on, orson can take DAMAGE?! I've never seen that happen! I thought he just never got hit or took damage when he got hit because of... Well, you know. Thats crazy! Wonder if he could die then. Gotta google this. Edit: Apparently, he *can* but its not easy to do. You gotta be intentionally trying to cause it.
there are times when I think a character should've died but suddenly enemies consecutively missed their attacks, I'm also a bit skeptic about the level up as they upgrade 5-6 points on certain levels, it doesn't feel like rng
This is a TAS, and you can manipulate the RNG in the GBA fire emblem games very easily. If you're playing the game yourself on an emulator, you can very easily just load a save state and play with the RNG until you get a favorable result. You can even do it on a real cartridge to manipulate the RNG to give you rare random drops like boots in the post-game, it's not hard at all. TLDR a human could easily recreate this run on a real cartridge by just recreating the inputs, it would just be a lot slower with human hands.
@@TroidHunter I'm aware that this is tool assisted speedrun, however we usually load a save state once we know we got unfavorable result. In this run however that is not the case, unless you can show me otherwise I'm open to hearing it
@@finrain838 You wouldn't see any failed runs/resets since this is the final result. While making the run, you would simply play with the RNG until you found the favorable result you wanted, then save the inputs that led to that for later. They could've simply brute-forced the RNG by trying an action, seeing if it works out (crit/dodge), then resetting and advancing the RNG after each failure. The "cursor dance" you see them frequently do where they take a character with high movement and move the cursor to make the arrow path change shape moves the RNG along by one step every time you do it. More likely, however, they used something that let them poke at the game data and view the list of upcoming RNG values, and then simply played with the cursor the appropriate number of times to get a favorable series of RNG numbers.
@@TroidHunter interesting. I'm not entirely sure on how accurate the "cursor dance" explanation you mentioned and whether if that's really how it works, neither do I know whether you're absolutely certain on that's what actually happened. But I suppose the explanation is suffice.
It's so weird to see Seth doing so much thanks to RNG rigging, when in a normal playthrough using pre-promotes has always been a terrible idea in this series, for anything other than taking their weapons away and using them as a shield in early levels.
Don't underestimate pre-promotes! Seth in particular is one of the best across the entire series, as he boasts pretty good stats and, unlike most "mentor" characters, actually has good growths too.
In most Fire Emblem games using pre-promotes has always been a good idea due to the fact they have usually quite strong stats compared to your other units. Even with poor growths they can still be useful to carry your weaker units and secure kills for them in the early game or if you want to play through the chapters quickly, which is advised. While some of these units can fall behind in the late game, most are still viable all the way through. That being said, Seth is quite possibly one of the strongest if not the strongest unit in the entire franchise, capable of pretty much soloing FE8. It's rare to not see him used, considering that on top of really high stats, he also has some of the best growths in the game as well. Literally the only cavalier that can surpass him is a trained Franz and even then they're comparable.
@@potatoboih5378 The only reason I hesitate to claim Seth is the best in the entire series is because of Titania, though from what I've seen Seth is usually seen as overall stronger than her.

I feel like this tas is just. Seth Emblem.
Not that I mind, Seth is the best. UvU
1:05:37 I like that Riev is the villain who orchestrated most of the bad things that happen in the game, and he actually survives in this TAS
Sup Baf

It's always pleasant to see the blasphemy promotion to Wyvern and then the sister trio crit. That wyvern skill in regular gameplay is chef's kiss.
The amount of research needed to route a game like this must be insane
Just a bunch of trial & error getting the needed random numbers, I wager
You just need to play it 3 times and experience a 7% hit, then you can start speedrunning
@@MilkerMurphy Still planning the whole run just to land a Pierce + Triangle attack on the last boss is some big brain play

Sacred Seth starring the Frelian Pegasus Knights
What i learned from this TAS:
Roses are red, Violets are blue.
You mess with Vaness you get the .700 Nitro Express.
3:18 I think the horse is confused.
Warp staff? What's that?
All hail our lord and saviour Dozla
>Shuten again
Despoa god bless ye. Shuten is a sign of good taste.
Also this was a pretty fun TAS to watch :D
Seth emblem: the sacred seths
Seth Emblem ft. Vanessa
When Mom only gives you 1 hour and 10 minutes of play time
Amelia RIP. :(
I…I did well, didn’t I?
Vanessa is the dodge queen
Fun fact: this music Sounds 10 times better on a GBA emulator on 1.5 speed. Trust me.
Very Seth.
Too bad the turns are short, i like the player fog theme
How did saleh get on top of seth? 41:40

What in the rngesus are these level ups? This definitely feels like youre cheating lol

Seth is the best unit in the game, possibly the series. Prepromotes are usually amazing.
