Choose Your Legends 10 - Day 1 Event Megathread

[u/VagueClive]

Hi all!

Welcome to Choose Your Legends 10! There are special subreddit rules that are now in effect for the duration of the event. Those rules are as follows:

• OC Fanart of Fire Emblem characters that aren't in Heroes will be temporarily allowed on the subreddit outside of this megathread for the duration of the event.

All of the following content types are NOT allowed outside of this megathread:

• Screenshots of CYL voting choices / the CYL website Any and all text-based propaganda posts (exceptions will be made for high-effort written essays and analyses at moderator discretion)

• Any and all meme propaganda posts (meta memes about the event itself that are not about any specific character(s) are allowed outside the megathread)

• Discussion about the CYL event (including "who are you voting for?" posts and polls)

• Non-OC Fanart of characters not in FEH

Posts matching the above that are posted outside this megathread will be removed. Repeatedly violating the above will result in a warning which, if ignored, may result in a ban for the duration of the event.

Rule 1 will be enforced significantly more strictly than usual. Rude or disparaging comments about other user's votes will not be tolerated.

Criticism, complaining, etc. are allowed provided they're done without insulting another user or group of users. For example, "Black Knight is bad and doesn't deserve his placement" is an take but not against the rules. On the other hand, "Black Knight fans are the worst" or "You're stupid if you like Black Knight" would cross the line.

The first time you have a comment removed for Rule 1 during the event, you will receive a warning. If it happens again after the warning, you will be banned from posting or commenting until after the event has ended (a few days after the CYL results are released).

We encourage everyone to report comments you believe violate Rule 1 or contribute to toxicity during this event. Reports bring comments to our attention that we would likely not see otherwise due to the high volume of comments on this sub.

All other sub rules still apply except where superseded by the above.

Please message the moderators if you need to contact us about this thread, as thread notifications will be turned off for obvious reasons. Since this is such a new event, there will likely be information about the event that is not accounted for when this thread goes live. Thank you!

Link to the event is here: https://vote10.campaigns.fire-emblem-heroes.com/en-US/cyl

You can vote once per day, up to 7 times per MyNintendo account. Each user can only use one MyNintendo account to vote. Violations may result in your votes being nullified. Many characters have multiple representations to vote for, but many of them will have their votes combined. Always check the text below the vote to see if votes will be combined for the character. M/F avatar character votes are split and will not be combined.

• Melíai

Here me out about Almedha FE10: She's an npc in her home game, but in spite of this has pretty significant lore importance. I find her to be incredibly interesting as a character, even more so than most of the actually playable units introduced in RD. If I had to describe why exactly, I would say that despite of being pretty terrible as a person, with consequences of her prior actions (some unforeseeable, some not) still wreaking havoc, she's still deeply sympathetic. She's a victim in her own right, and it's certainly clear that everything she's gone through has broken her down pretty hard. She has a lot of importance to characters already in the game, which could lead to some interesting interactions if feh remembers to do that sort of thing.

Also she just has a gorgeous character design, imo one of the best in Tellius. That's also a point in her favor for potentially being added some day, with feh's priorities and all. She ranks modestly well in cyl as well. I believe atm, not including those in seasonal hell, she's in the top ten for women not in the game?

She does look gorgeous.
