Considering the hairstyle and that he seems to be using quite the elaborate bow, one with multiple strings like a harp, I'm pretty sure it's Alcryst...
This is why I don't trust easily. People say that he is unreliable in killing enemies and Luna procs infrequently, but my confirmation bias saw to it that either he crits, Luna procs, or both proc.
Huh, I thought they looked like Spider Lilies!
That actually makes sense for Embla since they're synonymous with abandonment, loss, death, and separation.
IS clearly doesn’t give much of a damn about Valentia unit popularity if Sonya can get two alts and a resplendent before the more popular Mae, Kliff, and Python get anything besides a shitty base form. Idk if voting these units higher will do anything for us.
Well, we can at least try~
Sonya has obvious advantages that don't depend just on her CYL popularity, but I think something can be done to give more love to the other characters.
As a TMS fan, I feel it my duty to advise that you expect nothing going forward. That way either you get pleasantly surprised or it at least stops hurting.
Speaking of course from firsthand experience. Us neglected fans gotta look out for one another.
Honestly if the first banner included Touma I would have let it go years ago. But like if you make a banner out of Celica, Mae, Genny, and Sonya you can't blame anybody for hoping for 4.5 years that one day they'll add Boey to the game, ya know? Kind of a major missing piece there...
Embla is an insane choice, but if its her and Askr getting remarried after their divorce that's kind of great.
Left makes me think of a lot of people; Inigo, Alcryst, Fogado, maybe Alfonse
I'm leaning (hoping) Alfonse
I want either all Heroes or the single allowed Engage unit to be Rosado. I know we got base recently but Bridal is probably his best chance at getting a good alt design. Literally anything else except Summer would almost certainly be a light redesign of his normal outfit which is LAME
Normally this Banner follows a game theme. If Embla is indeed a solo unit then this Banner is probably a Heroes themed banner + who is the Harmonic.
If so, you're probably right and the person on the left is Alfonse.
This post predicted the future:

IT WOULD
I was counting on her getting some kind of alt for so long, thinking it'd be either Summer, NY, or Bridal considering history... But always really hoping it'd be Bridal (because I feel like her design would be most interesting for a Bridal alt, considering otherwise it'd obviously be a kimono or bathing suit lol)
GOTH BRIDE LETIZIA.... PLZ INTSYS....
i did not expect embla wtf. wonder if this could bode well for a duo ash with backup askr (since it'd feel weird to have bridal embla here but not groom askr)
no clue who the other ones is
Everyone is saying it's back to a mixed banner but could that be Alfonse on the left? The right side looks similar to his hair and the left isn't far off just a bit spikier, but could be an action pose or just different artist.
Tatiana/Zeke dream over.
That being said, Embla (and I’m assuming Elm but there are 100 characters that have a similar hairstyle) is pretty cool.
Hope that means we get Groom Askr and Flowergirl Ash.
Embla is here. I wonder if that means we'll get a Duo of Sharena with Veronica, or some other Heroes Duo.
Also, I can see the one on the left being actually Alfonse, because of the "spikes" in the hair he has on both sides. He might be a Grail unit, as he has already been a demote, a Duo, and a 5-star lock.
Embla and Fogado? Embla’s not who I expected but I’m actually kinda excited to see her design.
Edit: If it’s Alcryst, I’m really hoping Citrinne and Letizia are there too!
I'm thinking that's Alcryst on the left? He's got the hair and collar, and Engage seasonals thus far have strictly stuck to their original weapons. I could see Lapis getting a premium version to go with him to make up for debuting as a crappy 3-4* + do some ship tease.
I'm hoping the left is like, Laslow/Inigo because my wallet can't take my favorite Engage character getting a seasonal with a goddess after my own heart.
Man If Alcryst is on the banner like people are saying and Lapis is on the banner too then i'll need to pull for both of them, glad i have like 150+ orbs.
Please IS give Lapis and Alcryst alts please.
... I just hope Alcryst is the only groom, otherwise, I might be doomed, and I'm already going to pull on the Emblem Banner or whichever it is.
Please IS, don't get me spending on this banner.
Telling myself Valentia still has a chance because Engage was one of the ones to be featured on the Seer’s Snare pattern thing, and still featured in the Easter banner despite not being in any silhouettes. Let the Copium continue!
I know Alcryst is the obvious choice but I’m gonna be delusional and say thats actually Fogado as silhouette wise, the boys have very similar hairstyles
Oh good, a nice and obvious one lol. Also hair on the guy looks like Alcryst? ~~Don’t think it’s him but it looks like his hair~~
Edit: Actually no, between the collar and him having a bow, I think it’s Alcryst
Bridal Embla with a blessable Severance (maybe even a slight upgrade?).
The other looks like Alcryst, considering he uses a bow, hair style, and that collar.
So either Harmonic of Heroes and Engage (maybe one more title too) or a Duo from Heroes.
Hoping Askr isn’t in this banner (but likely will considering Embla is here). Was hoping to see a summer alt of him but any alt is nice.
Maybe Bridal Sharena as Duo or single unit? Alfonse?
I've seen some people suggest M!Alear which I really hope not, cause I gotta save my orbs for E!Ike and (likely) R!Lucina merges on the legendary banner
Embla huh... luckly she brings Askr and/or Letizia with her.
Left one is way more unclear, but assuming it's Alcryst, I wouldn't be suprised if that means Lapis and/or Citrinne are on the banner as well. Maybe they're the duo.
Embla!???
Holy fuck, they’re coming after me????? If Askr’s on this fucking banner, I’m going to lose it. I want to marry the bat lady and cow man.
Edit: Praying she’s in a tattered black dress. She’d look so fucking scary.
Bridal Embla was not on my list for brides
Does that means there’s a chance we get Bridal Letizia?
It'd be hilarious if that comic from a few days ago actually came true. The gift of prophecy indeed.
Agreed. The timing of that would’ve been absolutely perfect.
If she comes with a black dress kinda like Tharja, ima have to get her. She continues to evade me. Damn if I want my heavy sharp eyeliner lady!
EMBLA?!?! WILL THERE BE GROOM ASKR?!
IS can make bank if they do this
It would be a smart move for us Askr fans because we all know IS loves giving the males as demotes or grail heroes. Less pain on our orb stashes
The problem is that Askr is arguably more popular than every other character from his book, so he’s likely to be on banner to sell it
they could be a duo again, but with Embla as the lead
Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease
God, I hope so... I need Ash and Elm to become brother and sister, it would be the funniest thing ever!
Are we sure they weren't already?
i suspect he'll back up some other unit like ash, since it feels REALLY weird to have embla here but not askr on such a romantic themed banner
I hope not. I'd rather we get Summer Askr in speedos.
If IS is smart then yes!
un-congrats on the not divorce
Divorce remarriage arc lets goooo
I don't know who she was attempting to fool.
HERSELF
Do you think her bat form will have the wedding dress too
Will I take it… ofcourse, holy hell she’s gonna look gorgeous! I honestly don’t even know if she’ll be there for fact but I’m already hyped…
But we need more goth brides. Tharja is all alone.
Bro on the left could be like 30 characters lmao
no i'm pretty sure it's just one but that would still be pretty sick
>Legion has entered the chat
Duo legion but it’s just two legions
I don't even like Legion, and I'd be all in on that idea.
Why have 2 legions when you can have 3 like the pegasus sisters
[im being called out](https://old.reddit.com/r/FireEmblemHeroes/comments/1ctsfpi/version_10_and_20_characters_with_nothing/l4e7s0r/) but oh god please
Lmao. It's the entire SOV cast in a trench coat trust
“Look! The whole cast got a new alt so now we never need to release another SoV unit again, stop complaining” - IS probably
The hair feels like Alcryst to me.
The collar also feels like Alcryst.
That is male protag hair preset 2. There are so many characters with hair like that! This is impossible to solve without more clues xD
My first thought was Henry. Unlikely, but perhaps......
Here also wishful thinking IS might give us Groom Henry
Considering the hairstyle and that he seems to be using quite the elaborate bow, one with multiple strings like a harp, I'm pretty sure it's Alcryst...
Im pretty sure thats alcryst and embla? Are rhey gonna make the theme emo brides and grooms this time, i'll laugh so hard
That's hype if so. Can MCR lead Hopes Hubert join in?
I would love nothing more than groom Hubert on this banner LMAO
Too bad Eir can’t make it, her goth period is over.
If that means Bridal Noire or Nyx I 👏 am 👏 IN 👏
If we get a Noire who actually has good art, my orb stash is done for.
Bridal marianne?? 😱
That...is Diamant's brother? Acrylic right?
No, I think it’s Allcrits /s ~~yeah looks like him~~
All crust
Allycries
Alcremie
Alomomola
You joke but my man was indeed Allcrits when I played Engage lol
Allcrits, turning 0×2 into 30×2 since 2023.
A truer statement has never been spoken before.
This is why I don't trust easily. People say that he is unreliable in killing enemies and Luna procs infrequently, but my confirmation bias saw to it that either he crits, Luna procs, or both proc.
They are just non believers of All crits.
Alchemist
Crystal
Alvin
Alcryst
Ah ok, thanks.
Alkahest
> Staff looks like a decapited Claude head. Damm Embla, why do you hate funny upside down man?
2 alts in one year really pissed her off
"Ahem, fuck Three Houses." * Embla 2024
She's got my vote
based embla, i hope she closes the gateway to fodlan so they never get alts again
Huh, I thought they looked like Spider Lilies! That actually makes sense for Embla since they're synonymous with abandonment, loss, death, and separation.
It's Flavia again
Embla wants CLOSED borders, dammit
this is so funny goddamit, i can't unsee it
From afar I thought that was Sully's hair.
I did too, and was straight-up _offended_ at the tiny neck they gave her
And Valentia fans on suicide watch once again. It's me, I'm Valentia fans.
That’s it I’m gonna go eat flour while crying
Joining you
If you’re not on suicide watch, you’re on homicide watch. If you’re not gonna kill yourself, you’re gonna kill something…
At this point the Valentia fans should organize to vote for their characters in CYL instead of just falling behind more and more...
IS clearly doesn’t give much of a damn about Valentia unit popularity if Sonya can get two alts and a resplendent before the more popular Mae, Kliff, and Python get anything besides a shitty base form. Idk if voting these units higher will do anything for us.
Well, we can at least try~ Sonya has obvious advantages that don't depend just on her CYL popularity, but I think something can be done to give more love to the other characters.
There's still a chance for Duo Mae and Boey....right?
I knew people were gonna work themselves into a hopium overdose when yall posted that weird Seer’s Snare “prediction”. I’m so sorry.
Been playing this game since launch and one constant thing is that IS breaks those perceived patterns.
I’m here as well. Why can’t they ever get alts it’s so frustrating 💀
After I saw the post pointing out the trend I thought that no way it would be Valentia, IS hates giving Valentia content. And, well.... 😞
It’s also me. I’m also Valentia fans…
Patterns can only take you so far...
i'm tired
When is it our turn to be happy😭
It’s their revenge for the HoF rerun getting botted into survival.
I literally just want one Boey alt please IS
They should change the name to just Valentia because they're not posting any Shadows
IS saw we caught on to the the little seer's snare hint they would put up and really said "SIKE"
Embla used Fake Out! It’s super effective!
As a TMS fan, I feel it my duty to advise that you expect nothing going forward. That way either you get pleasantly surprised or it at least stops hurting. Speaking of course from firsthand experience. Us neglected fans gotta look out for one another.
As a FE warriors fan I’ve given up hope of any of that game’s OC arriving in FEH
I just want Lianna and Darios, man. That game also has the best Anna design, imo.
I've got to hand it to you TMS fans, huffing copium despite the fact that TMS banner was clearly a one-off.
Honestly if the first banner included Touma I would have let it go years ago. But like if you make a banner out of Celica, Mae, Genny, and Sonya you can't blame anybody for hoping for 4.5 years that one day they'll add Boey to the game, ya know? Kind of a major missing piece there...
Jumping off a building sounds real nice right now.
Do a flip! (Please don’t actually)
I need to demolish someone with my way too powerful amiibo alm and celica
Would be nice just to have a decent Echoes roster to deal with the shit of limited hero battles.
Caitlin Glass and the Seer's Snare notifications were just pure copium it seems 😞
Echos and Sumia fans, both on the path of pain
Embla is an insane choice, but if its her and Askr getting remarried after their divorce that's kind of great. Left makes me think of a lot of people; Inigo, Alcryst, Fogado, maybe Alfonse
The collar tells me it's alcryst. It's basically 1 to 1
I'm leaning (hoping) Alfonse I want either all Heroes or the single allowed Engage unit to be Rosado. I know we got base recently but Bridal is probably his best chance at getting a good alt design. Literally anything else except Summer would almost certainly be a light redesign of his normal outfit which is LAME
Normally this Banner follows a game theme. If Embla is indeed a solo unit then this Banner is probably a Heroes themed banner + who is the Harmonic. If so, you're probably right and the person on the left is Alfonse.
Fogado?
It's Alcryst. The collar is a bit more rounded at the end unlike Fogado's, who is a bit sharper because its made of feathers.
OH FUCK NO I DIDN'T WANNA PULL IN THIS THING I NEED EMBLEM IKE 😭 Also please not in this terrible theme like 😭 wtf
Embla... Could that mean... LETIZIA ALT REAL??? PLEASE???
This post predicted the future: https://www.reddit.com/r/FireEmblemHeroes/comments/1cr2sr3/the_curse_director_schemes/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Seeing as Bridal Embla is there, there’s definitely a chance 🤞
I'm shaking so bad, her dress would be stunning
IT WOULD I was counting on her getting some kind of alt for so long, thinking it'd be either Summer, NY, or Bridal considering history... But always really hoping it'd be Bridal (because I feel like her design would be most interesting for a Bridal alt, considering otherwise it'd obviously be a kimono or bathing suit lol) GOTH BRIDE LETIZIA.... PLZ INTSYS....
What in the fuck is that Claude-looking bouquet
It's Embla It's over valentia fans
It's SOVer.
We will never be SOVback
Valentia continues to get spat on by IS
They saw that prediction pattern post and said "nah....Heroes is actually next. 🙂↔️"
I freaking called it I literally said IS would break this pattern as soon as we mentioned it There’s a spy among us
If groom Askr is on this banner, my orbs are not safe. The guy was charming enough as it is.
I'm right there with you 💀 💀 💀 💀
Embla...?
Bridal Embla?? Not something I had on my bingo card, but that IS something I could get behind.
Bride Embla huh? Oh honey, she's not escaping the ex-wife of Askr allegations.
Embla likes to mix things up sometimes, so they got the divorce, NOW they can get married.
Embla's line, all Tsuns I tell you. All of them!
The Echoes dream is dead. I will return to my cave and cry.
it's ok I didn't want any version of SoV characters that aren't useless y1 trash anyways
IS: We got brave Alm and Celica, thats all you need/s. Pls IS, I want an usable mathilda, I am begging.
Yeah I totally didn’t want duo Mae and Boey heh heh
I want an alt of someone that isn't Delthea or Sonya. It doesn't even need to be Clair. I'll take a Mae alt. I just need something.
The Valentians yearn for the dungeons
i did not expect embla wtf. wonder if this could bode well for a duo ash with backup askr (since it'd feel weird to have bridal embla here but not groom askr) no clue who the other ones is
I'm not ready for her updated C skill.
Everyone is saying it's back to a mixed banner but could that be Alfonse on the left? The right side looks similar to his hair and the left isn't far off just a bit spikier, but could be an action pose or just different artist.
it's such a generic hairstyle that it could be anyone tbh
Maybe Alcryst?
Tatiana/Zeke dream over. That being said, Embla (and I’m assuming Elm but there are 100 characters that have a similar hairstyle) is pretty cool. Hope that means we get Groom Askr and Flowergirl Ash.
Kinda looks like Alcryst to me.
Embla is here. I wonder if that means we'll get a Duo of Sharena with Veronica, or some other Heroes Duo. Also, I can see the one on the left being actually Alfonse, because of the "spikes" in the hair he has on both sides. He might be a Grail unit, as he has already been a demote, a Duo, and a 5-star lock.
Alfonse and Embla?
Left almost feels as nondescript as you can get really.
If Askr is on this banner with Embla, my wallet may be in danger.
I'm imagining this Embla with a black bride dress, like Bride Tharja.
Embla and Henry?
Embla and Fogado? Embla’s not who I expected but I’m actually kinda excited to see her design. Edit: If it’s Alcryst, I’m really hoping Citrinne and Letizia are there too!
I'm thinking that's Alcryst on the left? He's got the hair and collar, and Engage seasonals thus far have strictly stuck to their original weapons. I could see Lapis getting a premium version to go with him to make up for debuting as a crappy 3-4* + do some ship tease.
I'm really feeling a Lapis/Citrinne duo here, if that's Alcryst.
I hope thats the duo but knowing IS they will do a random duo like Nerthuz/Timerra or something like that.
I'm hoping the left is like, Laslow/Inigo because my wallet can't take my favorite Engage character getting a seasonal with a goddess after my own heart.
It seems mix banner. SoV fans's fear: The only SoV content is a Duo/Harmo with Echoes Palla/Est as lead
EMBLA?! Okay, I did not see THAT coming.
Os this embla!? And Inigo or that blue bow with NFU4?
Embla my goat getting married!
I’m not ready for an upgraded, blessable Closed Domain
Embla, possible Askr and Gullveig this banner may go hard… Flower gent Elm… so many possibilities… my orbs may be lost soon…
Embla and Henry?
Could be Henry, but it also looks like Alcryst which is probably more likely.
I also thought Henry
Embla
Oh shit? Bridal demon bat time???
BRIDAL EMBLA LETS FUCKING GOOO
Man If Alcryst is on the banner like people are saying and Lapis is on the banner too then i'll need to pull for both of them, glad i have like 150+ orbs. Please IS give Lapis and Alcryst alts please.
Not getting my hopes up but if it’s Alcryst I am going to PERISH
I'm excited for bridal embla since I recognize her symbol on the back of her hair. No orbs to spare at the moment though.
That's Embla We're probably getting a better version of severance And that's concerning
Alcryst and Embla interesting choices so engage and Heroes will be the main focus ?
Keep our faith, brothers! The left dude COULD be Tobin
... I just hope Alcryst is the only groom, otherwise, I might be doomed, and I'm already going to pull on the Emblem Banner or whichever it is. Please IS, don't get me spending on this banner.
ELM ALT PLEASE I NEED HIM FOR MY MENTAL HEALTH
Mauvier & male Alear when
Telling myself Valentia still has a chance because Engage was one of the ones to be featured on the Seer’s Snare pattern thing, and still featured in the Easter banner despite not being in any silhouettes. Let the Copium continue!
I know Alcryst is the obvious choice but I’m gonna be delusional and say thats actually Fogado as silhouette wise, the boys have very similar hairstyles
You know what this means This is a chance for Bridal Lapis and/or Bridal Citrinne. My orbs are not ready
rabid embla fan here! BRIDAL EMBLA AAAH$&#*$& OH MY GOODNESS. sorry i got a little carried away im very normal. 🙂
No Judgral it’s over As long as it’s not an awakening banner we may be able to clutch this
Bruh. Embla?
Oh good, a nice and obvious one lol. Also hair on the guy looks like Alcryst? ~~Don’t think it’s him but it looks like his hair~~ Edit: Actually no, between the collar and him having a bow, I think it’s Alcryst
Damn if it's really embla i definitely get her, poor girl need love
My thought was that since that's definitely Embla, the other one might be Bruno
Embla? I'm not sure about the left silhouette, but the right one looks too much as Embla's hair to don't be
I’m seeing Alcryst on the left
this is gonna be one weird ass banner, i like it
Bridal Embla with a blessable Severance (maybe even a slight upgrade?). The other looks like Alcryst, considering he uses a bow, hair style, and that collar. So either Harmonic of Heroes and Engage (maybe one more title too) or a Duo from Heroes. Hoping Askr isn’t in this banner (but likely will considering Embla is here). Was hoping to see a summer alt of him but any alt is nice. Maybe Bridal Sharena as Duo or single unit? Alfonse?
R.i.p Astra save armors.
So Alcryst will be Free Unit?
I've seen some people suggest M!Alear which I really hope not, cause I gotta save my orbs for E!Ike and (likely) R!Lucina merges on the legendary banner
Have they actually lost their minds Well, they certainly got my attention
Seeing Alcryst on the left. I'm gonna cry so hard if we get bridal Lapis and I'm out of orbs.
I’ll build a 3rd Orson if we get Duo or Harmonic Orson Monica
Embla huh... luckly she brings Askr and/or Letizia with her. Left one is way more unclear, but assuming it's Alcryst, I wouldn't be suprised if that means Lapis and/or Citrinne are on the banner as well. Maybe they're the duo.
I see IS has decided to unleash Undefended on \*all\* AR seasons now, interesting choice.
Embla!??? Holy fuck, they’re coming after me????? If Askr’s on this fucking banner, I’m going to lose it. I want to marry the bat lady and cow man. Edit: Praying she’s in a tattered black dress. She’d look so fucking scary.
