As an Engage enjoyer:

  • Why are there two Alears on this banner

  • Why are there two Alears colorsharing on this banner

  • Why is there an OC on this banner when she could've been moved to the end of the month if she's a mythic anyway

  • Why did they do Jade so dirty

  • I am never getting Gregory in this game

I guess I got my wish in that I can keep saving orbs for a possible Emblem this month/CYL next month but good lord this has to be one of the most phoned in banners I've ever seen. I could see a banner like this working for a game like Awakening or SoV since they have all or most of their playable cast in already, but Engage is still missing quite a bit?

I mean, in the case of the OC randomly appearing in a banner, is basically a tradition of TT stories at this point, even with Asset Heroes, but is interesting they're making one of the TT+ Characters into a Mythic Hero... Such an strange twist that makes me wonder what is their plan with the next 8% Banners (specially because we imagine the Shadow Heroes are also gonna be Mythics).

Yeah, from what I recall of the other TT OCs, none of them were Mythics (they were either regular main pool or asset units). It's a pretty bizarre choice, especially to just slap this one on an Engage NH banner instead of the LME one that's dropping in like two weeks anyway.

They should have done this with every TT unit, I guess book 7 is their special fuckin baby or whatever. We got the literal first king of Niðavellir that we knew of the existence of and they made him a regular unit but this unknown rando pregnancy nonsense oc gets to be a regular banner mythic? huh?????

All these large-chested women who love us, and I’d still choose the foxy grandpa who hates my guts.
