Surprised Excelblem didn't redo the run to actually get the theoretical minimum ranking using the new method in the comments that didn't require 1000 years of nonstop play.
Ironically, getting the perfect "1 star" tactics rating in FE7 Hard displays extreme skill, because you need extensive game knowledge in order to fail this hard while still being able to complete the game. It's actually more difficult than completing the game "as intended" where you have more tactical options.
15:29 "She is able to un-sheath the Manni Katti, which has deemed her worthy to be its wielder. However, the fact that this Legendary weapon has chosen Lyn means nothing. Because the Lycian League allocates executive power based on heritable noble lineage, and not some farcical Sacaean ceremony." It's always amusing hearing a slight Monty Python reference... Assuming it is one.
Though the Mani Katti is apparently worth 0 gold and you can't discard it, if you really wanted to you could let someone die with it, effectively discarding it.
I love how not only is FE7's Tactician Rating system both extremely complex and not really important in the grand scheme of things... But getting the worst ranks possible is actually harder than playing the game normally, and this is the one with many infamously hard chapters (Lloyd's version of Four Fanged Offense, Genesis, Battle Before Dawn, etc.)
This is amazing xD I love the "hall of shame" moments where you get to see the character dialogue for the worst tactician possible. I'd never seen Lyn's line for the E rank tactician! Looking forward to seeing what Hector has to say!
I don't play Fire Emblem, but I love Challenge Runs that radically change the core gameplay, & I think avoiding EXP, wasting money, & sending their units to death in losing battles while wasting turns is exciting, so I'm looking forward to this! Thanks for uploading! Might comment more later!
@@velvetbutterfly many reasons actually. -In Brazil paying for switch games is hell, so I didn't go for 3H -I love GBA games, mainly the tactics ones like FFTA and the Shining Force remake so it just felt right -FE7 has a pretty good tutorial in Lyn's tale

11:38 Lol. Fitting name for an early game foe, considering glass breaks easily. 20:22 Chapter 4 is hilarious to me, because you learn about this lady's husband, Dorcas, then recruit him JUST so he can die by the bandits he was previously fighting alongside. (Well okay, according to the story, he doesn't die, but still.) 34:00 Lyn, how can you say that after the recent events?! Anyway, neat analysis & run video! Thanks for uploading!
You became the best tactician in the land of Elibe: The tactics in question: My soldiers Rage, My soldiers Fuery, Give your hearts to humanity!!! Ragghhhh
As a possible counter to this sort of run, I am curious to see if it is possible to beat LHM with the most tactician stars possible while also getting Nils to L7 (for 19xx). It is something I have pondered for a while but not attempted
@sebastianlucas704 from L1 to L7 using Play takes only 60 turns. However if you include dodge attacks from enemies that's 1 xp per attack, so every 10 attacks focused on Nils reduces this turn count by 1
You say that characters are dying, but strictly, no characters are allowed to die during Lyn's story, since they come back in Eliwood's story later...I'm pretty sure they do even if they are wounded in Lyn's story.
I'd also like to add that some of the star ratings in the tactician rating set could probably be optimized to let you get away with more items, causing net gains to be easier to manage later without throwing out everything you own, or let more characters survive some chapters where you wanted to kill them for minimum survival, without actually gaining any more TP, but that'd require much more precise analysis and rationalizing. "If I kill a character here, I can take more money into the next chapter" kinda deals.
@@brianforsyth2225the characters were only thrown away in the last chapters. And why would you care about keeping any alive if it is the end of the route? What you're saying doesn't make sense
the dialogue: wow! you are such a talented tactician! we couldn't have done this without you.
the tactician in question:
I mean, a lot of skill is required to do this badly _on purpose._

This is just an editted movie version. Little sad, but maybe the next mode will come sooner because of it.
maybe he doesn't want to put in the time, but he should at least acknowledge the method that his comment section gave
Honestly it sounds like a skill issue.
What method? You have like the third comment here lol
@@acksawblack
He made a video on it. I'd you were to theoretically dodge and not hit the bandit in the prolouge you could shave off a tactician star.

Cant wait for hector hard mode in worst way
What great timing to finish FE7 Eliwood mode as my first FE game. Glad I discovered this channel.
May I ask why you decided to start with 7 and not a more recent and readily available title?

Hector’s army is probably the next victim
The tactician in this run is Lundgren's time traveling son seeking revenge on Lyndis's Legions
Oh nice, a -100% run
11:33 Glass: who lacks class, who alas, after we pass through this crevasse, hiss ass will be grass xd.
That seraph robe joke was hilarious thank you!
Oh hell yeah, new Excelblem video!
For some reason the totally serious plot recaps in the context of this play style are absolutely hilarious to me
Gosh your patience is insane
1:09 - "Optimize", he says
I need you to know that I instantly hit subscribe after the drip Lyndis came up. I wasn't ready
0:52 "This might sound easy."
Our brains are on entirely different wavelengths.
Unless you are being sarcastic, of course.
this video was already hilarious but I hurt myself when you threw in the reference to the original ad campaign. Subscribed.
Wake up hon! New min-maxing definition just dropped
Loved this series
Hope you do the rest of the game!
this was amazing. Super pumped for Hector Hard mode!

Bit late, but I'm pretty sure it's impossible. You need a considerable amount of turns to grind up nills, at least 500.

@@Toothache42 Ah, accidently putting down an extra zero.
While Nills can get attacked for extra exp, combat can be tight in Lyn mode.
That was painful to watch. I love it.
Nice. Now do it on Lyn+Eliwood Normal
Ok I want this run for Hector Hard Mode
This is like the quest for zero points in papa's pizzeria, but in fire emblem
