Stoic actions are often frowned upon today. It's kind of sad to me. Hector doesn't even tell anyone of Uther's passing in Eliwood Mode and you learn he dies in the postgame slides. He doesn't share his distractions because there are more pressing responsibilities. Hector makes me think of how the term "Constant Companion" can be somewhat mistakenly taken or said to mean "one who is always tagging along." Hector is very constant, because, like a stone, you can rely on him to be a certain way. He will always consistently act in a way that supports his friends, to a fault. He even does this politically, getting his hands dirty with a team of spies- he'll be that bad guy doing the thing that keeps the good guy safe if he has to.

I might be reaching a bit, but I think there's an intended explanation as to why Armads' curse isn't present. The Elibe legendary weapons have obviously degraded in power, but at the time of FE7, Armads had done so considerably less. Armads has 25 durability in 7, but only 20 durability in 6, implying Hector did a lot of the work against the fire dragon (which he probably does in gameplay too, if not Luna). All the other S-rank weapons have 20 durability, in both 6 and 7. It's subtle, but it's there.

Hector is unironically one of my favorite lord's due to his underrated mental development, I'm really sad that we just don't get MC's like this anymore, his character is way more down to earth and relatable then he comes off as initially.

I hoew you get well soon

Hector is based and Lyndis is cringe

fe let roy have two dads just to make one of them die

Love these analysis my dude! You have such a great eye for detail

4:41 quadrupling with a steel lance is crazy

I think jogurt is a legendary warrior and he eat the forbidden yogurt and he was tranformed in that thing

Finally, I love these analsysis videos and Hector is my favorite lord, so i've been waiting for this

25:30I don't know who the dig is aimed at, but I love it.

Lyn: "Hector, hit me!" Hector: "No. You are a game over condition."

26:38 He's doomed

36 minutes long? You cant fool me at all. This is just the next episode of FE6 Randomized!

You have to understand that fire emblem fans don't know how to read the dialogue

Okay but what if Hector was just so cool that he broke Armads’ curse with raw swag?

“If you go back to ancient Egypt you’ll probably find a story written in the hieroglyphs featuring two men like this” This dynamic even goes as far back as the world’s first legend with Gilgamesh and Enkidu It’s the protagonist and lancer. Which one is the cool, collected one, and which one is the brash, eager one swaps around with every story, but yeah, the dynamic itself is quite literally as old as fiction

"No one in fire emblem has parents" , yep and Roy still has his father because he is actually a Smash character

Hect

Oho!

THE BOY

Wow, Roy is good.

I just can't not hear Barf every damn time when you say Barth... As for Deke... lmao but that seems more intentional.

Western army: Stretched thin, getting poisoned and dealing with reinforcements. Eastern army: ☕

Hugh does actually start moving on turn one in the base game actually

Hugh's luck ensures that he will also be a Swordmaster Killer

mage killer

Your luck really is abysmal, eh? Though Hugh isn't what you wanted, the glitch still works, so that's a plus.

Hey at least you have the ultimate mage killer If he can actually kill anything

Hugh doesn't afraid of fimbulvetr, at least

Boy i cant wait for the comedy that Roy will demote at chapter 22

20:45 Perne talking about Tina

I kinda feel like Garret is a pretty good unit in this rando

Hugh Should promote with a Hero Crest? Maybe I can't remember

Well at least we have a lightning rod for seige tomes and status staves

5:55 She just killed that guy 5.5 times over

Another reason why it is generally considered better to recruit Perceval during chapter 15 is because he gets hard mode bonuses there while he doesn't get them here

I'll be honest I was half expecting eclipse to have poison

Bro forgot about Grima somehow lol

I can't believe that Garret became trans Renault

I wonder what's up with all of the stats going into luck, because it's clearly not just a coincidence at this point

To think that one of your units has to promote by using the secret shop is as hilarious as the fact that every single recent unit has so much luck, that they could all be considered legitimate dodge tanks.

Garret is a recently-transitioned bishop who was a bandit before, did you expect her to have good magic

Garret is pretty much Lot 2.0

Fun fact about the Nomad Trooper sword animation: these guys literally spin around their horse after every attack. If you slow down the animation you can see them going below the horse as it jumps.

That mercenary in the corner is just spectating

I was really hoping fae would randomize into an anima mage with busted growths + promotion

The search for a competent magical unit continues

26:02 I first heard that as "Maybe because you're French"

You have to specifically allow Manaketes to be Randomised and I had like 4 myself
