    Somehow Donnel is in the top 10 above Owain and Lon'qu. how

    I started with Awakening. You can play a good amount of the series if you own a 3DS and Wii U (from the virtual console).

    That's the part where you take the sensible and logical choice to send the leader of your army weaponless so she can't murder anybody by accident.

    I'm convinced the real reason people barely talk to Mark in 7 is because they are fed up with his ridiculous orders.

    That's awakening yeah.
    It basically brought the franchise back to life and has lots of content, so it should be a good pick.

    The difference in treatment between Corrins is harsh too.

    Heroes is dangerous, far too easy to just pick up my phone and play a bunch. Got Corrin on my first summon, he's been putting in good work. Currently making my way through the Awakening section. I know she was in that poll thing, but is Tharja in the game yet?

    It has the typical 'stamina' gauge that would stop you from playing if it reaches zero, but it doesn't seem to go down very quick and recharges pretty fast as well. You summon more characters by using orbs, you get 1 orb for each mission from I've played. Costs 5 orbs for one summon, and 4 if you continue summoning. You can buy these orbs and they're far too expensive, but you can get them quick enough from missions. It's not something that I see myself spending money on, but the option is there.

    I'm so glad it has an auto battle and animation skipping, I feel so efficient multitasking between my phone and real life stuff lol.
    Robin is forever fated to be my avatar it seems. His skill that lets him do extra damage against neutral units is pretty amazing.

    Tharja is in the game. She's available as both a red 4 and 5 star. I need to reunite her with Robin for when their kids become available :p 

    I think Mario Run actually locks out levels if you just get the free version?

    Fire Emblem lets you have access to all its content. You would only really spend money if you wanted more chances to roll for your favorite character but I think the summoning system is fairly generous and the game easy enough that you don't need to pay to have a good time.

    Well, time to spend all my orbs on red summons. I assume that she comes under deep devotion?

    That list is trash because Nino is on it at all.
    and Tharja and Lucina are overrated AF, they're not bad, but they're both far from great

    Her attacks also heal.
    All adjacent units.

    Attagirl.

    You can press Details under either summoning banner to see what characters are in.

    Iirc she's a red character available as both a 4* and a 5*
    She's actually in the default pool for both options.
    *edit: She's not on rate-up, my bad.

    Yes, and she's one of the average ones, Takumi is basically an insta-win.

    Be warned, Heroes is made by Mobage, who made all those ridiculous pay to win Transformers mobile games. The hero gatcha/lottery is designed to eat up your money like a slot machine

    Don't have any intentions of spending a penny on this.

    Currently playing Chapter 12 of Sacred Stones. I ended up having to restart a map screen skirmish (which I had to play through because it was blocking the location of the next chapter) when I got careless in the fog and Ross kicked the bucket.

    If it was a unit I never use (Vanessa, Marisa) I might not have bothered, but for Ross I had to restart.

    Speaking of Tiki, just got rather lucky and got her, Chrom and another Corrin from a single summon session. It's not Tharja, but I guess she'll do :p
