Hal’s hopeful but also realistic Emblem Warriors roster

I want to believe in Koei Tecmo and Emblem Warriors.  After all, Hyrule Warriors included some awfully obscure characters!  I don’t hate 3DS FE, but as a fan of the series as a whole I will be disappointed if that’s all we see. Hence the “hopeful but also realistic” part.

Now, the trailer more or less confirmed a few characters, so I’m going to start from there and list the characters I think will most likely be in at some point or another, using Hyrule Warriors 45-character (including DLC) roster as a framework.

FATES (FE 14)

Trailer basically confirmed:

1.      Corrin

2.      Ryoma

3.      Xander

Because the 3DS FEs are bound to make up the brunt of the characters, here are my other predicted Fates reps:

4.       Azura (basically a shoe-in)

5.       Takumi (has both possessed and non-possessed forms)

6.       Leo (less likely than Takumi but still likely imo)

7.       Elise and/or Sakura (more likely than the older sisters, but I’m not confident)

8.       Jakob and/or Felicia

9.       Kaze

Something in me doubts that they’ll include all eight siblings in favor of a more diverse roster.  I could see Camilla or Rinkah getting in as well; we’ll give them Honorable Mentions.  Sadly, i think Hinoka is least likely.

AWAKENING (FE 13)

Trailer basically confirmed:

10.   Chrom

And with Chrom along, there’s no way the game won’t also feature:

11.   Robin

12.   Lucina

Other likely candidates:

13.   Tharja (please don’t koei I’m literally on my knees and begging)(but let’s face reality here)

14.   Owain and/or Gaius

15.   Severa and/or Cordelia

16.   Inigo (These three slots are because if it’s driven by popularity polls again they’re the likely winners)(plus tharja but…she’s a bit more of a guarantee…*weeps*)

17.   Gangrel or Grima

18.   Sumia

19.   Anna (not solely an Awakening character, but Awakening is what brought her to the fore)

20.   Basilio (wildcard suggestion)

21.   Emmeryn (maybe?)

Priam, just to fucks with me personally

ARCHANEA SAGA (Marth Game/FE 1, 3, 11, and 12)

Trailer basically confirmed this as well.  I think it’ll have less reps than 3DS FE, but it’ll be there.

22.   Marth

23.   Caeda

24.   Gharnef/Medeus

25.   Minerva

26.   Merric (maybe)

27.   Tiki

Honorable Mentions:  Linde, Gotoh, Navarre, Lena, and Julien.  There’s a lot to choose from with Marthgame and i didn’t even put any fe 3/12 important guys because i’m not familiar with them.      

ELIBE (FE 6 and 7)

This is where we get into the realm of those banished to DLC.  I think there’s a good chance some will be featured in the main game:

28.   Eliwood and/or Roy (I’m not sure they’d bother doing both)

29.   Hector

30.   Lyn

And maybe a few more reps might happen if it is DLC:

31.   Lilina

32.   Merlinus

33.   Nergal

Honorable Mentions:  Matthew, Marcus, Nino, Nils, Idunn

TELLIUS (Ike game/FE 9 and 10)

Please, Koei.  Please treat my children well.  

Ok, even if it’s just Amiibo support, we’re bound to get

34.   Ike

Then, much like with Elibe, other reps are DLC-bound and increasingly unlikely.

35.   Micaiah

36.   Black Knight

37.   Soren

38.   Ranulf

39.   Ashnard and/or Ashera

40.   Elincia

Honorable Mentions:  Lethe, Sothe, Sanaki, A Bird Laguz, Oliver

JUGDRAL (FE 4 and 5)

Slim little chance we get some Jugdral DLC.  Hey, Awakening SpotPass included them, at least!

41.   Sigurd and/or Seliph

42.   Leif

And maaaaaaaybe

43.   Arvis and/or Julius

Honorable Mentions:  Finn, Julia, Lewyn

SACRED STONES (FE 8)

Lmao @ someone remembering Magvel exists *sob*

44.   Eirika (a Real Eirika in all her glory  not awakening’s Bride shit please koei im begging you--)

45.   Ephraim

46.   Lyon (maybe)

Honorable Mentions (me getting my hopes up Really Really High):  Saleh, Joshua, Myrrh, L’arachel, Innes

GAIDEN (FE 2)

BIGGER LMFAO

47.   Alm

48.   Celica

(even that much is a bit of a stretch)

Anyway!  This is just my projection.  I went a little over the 45-character limit but some of these are conditional picks.  I can see it going either way, honestly—either I’m pretty right, or I’m totally wrong and it’s going to be nothing but 3DS and my heart will shatter into teeny tiny pieces. I could also see them going in a different direction entirely but hey! it’s two AM at the time of writing this and im just trying to contain my excitement

Feel free to drop me a line to talk about your own predictions or to talk about fire emblem in general!
