"I wont be able to forgive myself if I fight Elise"... I think everyone who played Nohr first said the same tbh.

No Arthur on this list? Or any of the Awakening trio? TIME FOR THE SWIFT HAND OF JUSTICE

wait, Charlotte is a Berserker? as in the previously male only class? What's next, a male Pegasus Knight? Edit: I made this as sarcasm. I know that Subaki exists.

Someone told me they didn't bother using Keaton or Velouria I swear Wolfssengers are some of the best units you can get.

1:56 Kaze! HAHAHA. Noooooooooo Kah zae

FYI, Kaze's name is pronounced "ka-zay," not "kayze."

Youre going to love what happens to Elise in birthright. Its very fitting for a character as kind as her

Oh man... once he plays Birthright... His heart's gonna break. (SPOILERS IN THIS THREAD)

You *like* Peri? I mean, I respect your opinion, but.... You *LIKE* Peri?

Camilla at #1? Ehhh... I kinda got tired of her 24/7 showering Corrin with love schtick. But she still kicked a lot of ass in battle.

Nohr guys are awesome. It's like you said, "do not let the appearances deceive you". Xander seemed like a serious and rather ruthless prince in the trailers, but he has a really soft side and cares about his familly. He is my main dude with Speedtaker. And Nyx, Charlotte, Leo, Niles...they have all this hidden depth. The sweet, sweet Elise. I swear, don't give me a chapter to point a sword against her! That beast Camilla rocks and destroy every foe! Arthur is crazy awesome too, but mine turned not that good on the field. I don't even want to play Birthright anymore! Don't want to fight the dark kingdom and kill off or maim the guys and gals I love so much. Still have to do it though, because I got the special edition as present...but I already feel like I will not like Hoshido as much.

2:00 - It's Kah-Zeh

Here's hoping that Setsuna makes it into the Birthright list.

Almost everyone else: "Camilla is best waifu." Me: "That's a weird way to spell Ophelia."

I'm so happy you introduced each number on the list with the Nohr version of the dance song. Also, thanks for another enjoyable video!

DARN IT! I was sure number 3 was leading up to Benny/Benoit

How about top 10 worse fe fates characrers 1corrin 2corrin 3corrin 4corrin 5corrin 6corrin 7corrin 8corrin 9corrin 10corrin

Tbh, Benny is a better knight because of his insane defense. I had Benny at 45 Defense in one playthrough, and he still wasn't maxed out in defense

You have no idea how great it feels to see fates content that isn't blind. Also great editing work!

Dude I love your fire emblem videos. Keep up the good work 👍

After you play Revelations, you may not be as fond of Effie.

Am I the only one who hates the fact that they took the Awakening characters and put them in this game.

AWESOME!!! Can't wait for your list of the Birthright characters.

Been waiting for this!!!! Love your videos man keep up your amazing work!

(Watches video while playing Birthright)

You're going to cry in birthright. It's heartbreaking af

Keaton and Effie are definitely my favorite non-royal, non-Awakening, and non-child units. Mainly because they caused two of my personal favorite badass gameplay moments (excluding all moments where Ophelia activates a skill and then gets a crit on top of that) to occur. For Keaton, it came from the entirety of Chapter 19, where the furry Incredible Hulk was the only unit to survive the onslaught (thank god for Casual Mode) thanks to Beastbane and Better Odds. For Effie, it was towards the end of Chapter 21, where all the other units escaped but circumstances force Effie between Faceless and certain death. So the final stretch of Chapter 21 was Effie making what was essentially a last stand (and probably would've been an actual last stand if I wasn't playing Casual), fighting off waves of Faceless before going down.

well lewis looking back at this video your judgment of the characters of noir was spot on and fyi my deadliest was peri and hell she defeated ryoma and she was my noir wife and i know she is hated but i looked past that that and she makes a good crustless cheese sandwich keep up the good work lewis ps enjoy your holiday from twitch and maybe one of these days we can have a ps4 session and i can watch the knight in action but besides that have a good holiday and keep up the good work

Xander & Leo are my favorite royals(male) hands down.

...Have a... Great Knight ;) I'm sorry, I'll go stand in front of god damn Tacomeme.

amazing as always crash cant wait to see the next one

I've been waiting soooooo long for your next video!!! IT'S COME OUT!!!!

Ooooooooh you've got a big storm coming in terms of Story in Birthright. (The gameplay is a lot easier but the mental toll is a little bit worse at time)

10-keaton 9-keaton 8-keaton 7-keaton 6-keaton 5-keaton 4-keaton 3-keaton 2-keaton 1-keaton

Yes! We finally have part of your opinions on Fates!

hey.... this is fates content! wow! this has been a long time coming! either way conquest was my favorite path. mostly because of it having what I consider the stronger cast. my favorite character would have to be Xander, god, I wish he was the main character sooooooo badly. also, he is super powerful as a unit and how sword is borderline broken. the new intro is really nice, liked that. annnnd... i'm now really triggered cause I wanted to get my fates video done before you did.... I've barely edited a third of it. oh, and hey 7k subs, that's a pretty big number.

Nyx was a very inaccurate glass cannon lol. I enjoyed her interactions but, her use as a battlefield unit, eh.

I chose Felicia because... She's so cute :D I just feel so sorry when the other characters disrespect her so.. Yeah. No regrets.

I know it's an older video, but I've watched it several times. I just wanted to say it's nice to meet another who finds Camilla interesting. I find Xander interesting too, but I've taken a bit of heat for liking Camilla or at least for saying how interesting I find her. They both have interesting backstories and characters, and I really enjoy exploring them, especially Camilla's; must be the writer in me. I mean, I didn't have a fair opinion of Camilla at first, but after learning more about her, she really became a favorite of mine.

Ever heard about Kami"kaze"...? Either way, keep up the good work. I do not watch your videos in one sitting, but I appreciate the work behind them all for the same reson: They're long and good. Corrin's harem ftw

But if he was Zero he couldn't aNILEate people.

You should make a top 10 waifus list also, multiplayer is regionlocked, as an American I can not visit your catle

Out of all the returning awakening characters, which of the three did you happen to like the most unit wise? Personally I liked Selena for the fact that she acts more like a Myrmidon rather than a mercenary so it added more variety to the team.

Thanks for uploading this! My favourite is Nyx!

If Camilla wasn't one of the best Units in combat I wouldn't have just put her on the bench, I would have buried her under it. I don't buy into the argument that oversexualised characters can't also be good and have deep personalities (because why wouldn't they) but I don't see how you could refer to her as such. During best moments she just annoyed me, in her worst moments she made my skin crawl and I can't help but think they let a thirsty 16 year old weeaboo write and design her.

I think you should play the Hidden Truths DLC

Awesome video CRASHX500! Can't wait to see more! Also note, judging by your fond feelings of the royal family Birthright will break you. I apologize in advance :(

Sooooo... How do you feel about Nohr's Chapter 10 again ? TBH I felt like it was one of the hardest FE chapter in Lunatic (Let's just not talk about Thracia please )

KAIZE?! Really, you don't realise that as a Japanese name, the 'e' isn't silent...? It's "KAH-ze". ... You're welcome, BTW. Time for me to resume watching the video!

yay! I got 1st in the list, I'm the best. (forget xander)

great video!!!

I'm glad you put Keaton here

Birthright Spoilers 21:47 wait till he finds out Elise dies in birthright

For Birthright characters, while not all as great as Conquest's, I'm willing to bet that Crash will like a certain few. Especially one who's name rhymes with Assama. And sadly, while Ryoma isn't as great of a character as Xander, but in battle....AAHHAHAHAASTRAAHAHAHA. Let's just say that Ryoma is quite SKILLful.

You're an Sao fan?!! ...You just earned massive respect from me.

Can someone tell how I can improve my units in fire emblem because when I see other people play fire emblem, their units always crits or have really good defence

I hate to be that guy, but it's pronounced"kah-zay", not "Kays"

Fates as a WHOLE feels not as interesting as awakening and i have the complete story for both conquest and birthright

i'd really love to know the version of the fates theme song you used in between characters

I just started this game. I played awakening and knew that I had to make most my characters sky knights to get the extra turn. What's the best job class in this game to get the best extra priveledges.

For a weeb, this guy is really bad at pronouncing "Kaze".

Are you planning on doing a list for the characters available on both routes? Also, will Top Ten Corrin Supports feature supports from both genders?

I'm glad you're having a good time with Conquest! I've been largely absent from your videos because Birthright has taken over my life right now, and I'm sure Conquest and Revelations will too! :P I've been building up a pretty badass crew in Birthright, my top units being Kase, Ryoma, Silas, Jakob, Orochi, Kaden, Kana, Mosu and Hinoka. Though I know this is helped by grinding a lot :P I hope you weren't implying that my husband Kase was a low levelled unit! He's one of my tanks and along with Kaden he is completely immune to magic! XD They both wipe their arses with sorcerers and diviners! XD But I am really pleased that Birthright is making me feel SO BAD for facing against my Nohrian siblings! And Conquest is probably going to make me feel the same with my Hoshidan family! Though Xander is looking a bit like a stubborn douche in Birthright, I'm sure like Ryoma he is going to be a tank of a big brother :P

The cutscene used between one position and another?

For Elise it is simple to get her at level 20. You go to the first visited castle and you attack Selkie. Then you put Elise behind your first unit. You end your turn and with Selkie's personal skills your unit will lose 5 hp. You heal your first unit with Elise and Elise will get XP. Do this whole thing again to put your Elise level 20. It work with all healers

Honorable mention and humble brag, laslow and Selena my favorites.

Great first countdown for the Fire Emblem Fates-Athon. Although to be honest, I feel if I made a similar list, Charlotte, Nyx, and Pieri wouldn't make it, and Beruka, Odin, and Laslow would've been.

I personally like the birthright characters better then the conquest characters. Might be japanese pride, but yeah. Heck, that's why I chose to play birthright first anyways.

great video btw considering you probably won't talk about her but what is your opinion on mozu?

Nice list. I have to say on my first playthrough of conquest Peri got all the good rolls for level ups. She has the highest Atk in that playthrough. My top ten characters I used in Conquest(I'm including shared characters since I used these ones more then the others also no particular order since I like every playable character in all routes.) were My Avatar, Elise, Xander, Leo, Camilla, Peri, Felicia, Nyx, Azura, and Keaton. I'm currently working on getting S Ranks and A ranks with every character though. I have a ton more to do, but have completed every single S rank on My Male Avatar only so far. Oh and did you know you can easily miss a second gen character when playing as a Male Avatar?

See, this list is why I waited for Revelations to come out before I began playing Fire Emblem Fates. There are just too many good characters from both sides, and I could not but fall in love with some of them.

What song played during the nyx segment?

You have no idea how happy I am that Charlotte was on this list

will you do a total list after rev?

I left Effie in the dust after Benny's chapter, and for good reason. Strength may be an admirable quality in Generals, but their high defenses are their real defining characteristic. He's a wall if I've ever seen one, with unparalleled defense and HP as well as decent enough strength to get the job done. Heck, give him a Hexlock Spear and he'll be able to decimate magic users.

YOU'RE BACK YAAAAAAAAAY

Apparantly my avatar had a beastiality thing going on, because I had Keaton marry my avatar in Conquest and Kaden in Birthright. They came into my group at a pretty similar time when I was still looking for an enjoyable partner. As I'm an Aussie (I SHARE YOUR PAIN, Crash) I don't get Revelations until the 10th, so I'll probably pick someone else for my avatar during that playthough. (Also, PSA, on Conquest, pass Draconic Hex to your Avatar's children. It is ridiculously good, and it can trivialise many bosses).

Well, the good news about Elise is that you only get the chance to fight her once in Birthright, and it's completely optional. ^^

Which cover of Lost in Thoughts All Alone is he using?

I forgot too get nyx in chapter nine and i let the little girl get killed by a faceless do i still have a chance of getting them

Tbh can't say I agree that Camilla is anywhere near as complex or dope as Xander but hey that's why it's an opinionated list right. As always, great video, keep up the good work it never fails to impress.

Gotta say I agree with you 80% with my switches being Laslow and Arther replacing Nyx and Effie respectively.

when you mentioned the thing with elise in birthright I'll admit I laighed a little (to hide the pain most likely) but... yeah, prepare yourself...

Oh just wait till you get Takumi and Ryoma. Can't wait for the Birthright and child units count down!

Yay finally Fates countdowns

Man I love good ol Keaton, he was my first husband in any of my games and I honestly started crying when I had to kill him in birthright, he was only trying to protect his friends ; - ; and he was gonna let you through until his friend dies.

#10: I like this character too, even though she has a bad habit of dying really easily. I just really like how she's both fast and powerful. #9: Heh, this guy is hilarious. Also, Wolfskins are amazing, since Beaststones actually fix their mediocre speed and skill. #8: A useful lock-picking unit, plus his supports are pretty solid. #7: Yeah, I was also surprised by how likable she was, plus her passive skill is one of my favorites. #6: One of my favorites to use on the battlefield. Her crit rates are so high it's hysterical, especially if you give her Death Blow. Also, STICK DAT ASS OUT! #5: Adorable. Also an amazing healer. #4: I do wish his speed wasn't shit (it caps REALLY low compared to other mages), but otherwise he's pretty great. #3: Yeah, baby! Hits like a truck and tanks hits too, and her passive just makes her even better. #2: Again, he has problems with speed, but his defense is through the roof to the point some enemies can't do shit to him. #1: Easily one of my favorites. Useful in nearly every situation, plus I love her character and supports. And even if you ignore that, you can still love her for the tits!

What was the song you used for the number transition

Another great list to the collection, sorry it took me so long to watch it I just got conquest myself and I didn't want any spoilers. Peri is my personal waifu but cam camilla and charlotte are pretty close behind.

I like the new intro.

thanks you for putting camilla for 1# on the list

Where can I find the song when the number appeared (the one about conquest and fate)

0:54 That Corrin looks pissed off at literally everything. Maybe the fact that you chose Cancerquest?

The cool thing about Conquest is that Leo and Camilla are the best Nohr Characters (imo) and you are almost bound to take them with you because they already start out strong. Leo is additionally my favourite fates Character in general. However, he's just my third favorite Mage, next to Sephiran and Soren ^^

love the list saw both this and best nohr maps countdown both of them I found good though I think ill give my 2 cents on your choices. 10.one of my end game units my god did she destroy many units for my team despite getting RNG screwed during base class got better when I permote her to sorcerer plus even though Nosteraftu got nerfed to hell because of her base magic stat she was the best unit it I just had to keep her away of heavy hitters and mage killers. 9.I will admit I didn't use him in the end (and somewhat regret it) he was a good unit to me when I had to deal with horshback units plus I like his supports and I do regret not making seve-I mean selena his wife that honor went to mozu.(though I don't know if I could handle that much tsundere) 8.I will say that I didn't expect him in the mage killer department considering the fact that bows are treated as axes and tomes are treated as swords but that"s easily reminded if you get a dual yumi and I do like his supports despite the fact he dose come off as a bit of a dick in most of them. 7. another end game unit and found her as a great great knight (dose that line make scene)any who she worked well when I needed a vanguard or secondary tank (that honor goes to benny) and open the charge for my other units as well as help units pick off those who engaged her supports though not a big fan of I will say I ship her and ing-I mean laslow so hard. 6.one of my wifefus in the game other than the *ahem* obvious she a well developed character she has a reason for her gold-digging (I will say that I wish there was a support that not only covers that but question her on what will happen if backfired) and on my playthough she most of the time KILLED EVERYTHING. I mean her crit rate was crazy hitting around 70% to 80% when I gave her a forge killer axe I definitely plan to use her on my reverlations playthough. 5.another great character and another one of my wifefus I love her supports as well as a better mage on the battlefield I still worked on getting her to lv 20 and I have no regerats when it was time to permote her I found her my second favorite nohr noble of the 4 as well as one of them other than corrin who wanted to end the war peacefully(I did see your tweet on your twitter account about ch 26 I dreaded that moment as well). 4.unlike you I did like the dark knight class and leo gave me more of a reason to love them more he's tied with xander as my favorite nohr royal 3.she definitely one of the best kicka** units though alot a people had a problem with her voice (I believe that's alot of us were after every gameplay video of it there for ruining everyone's expeditions)though she made it to the end game for me I ended up using benny because RNG screwed her over Big time. "1".xander and camilla as I said xander is tied with leo for number one as my favorite nohr royal camilla is however is my least of the royals as far as units are concerned they were both there no matter the ch they were on and made alot of damage during the enemy onsloths supports and story though both are good in there own right I found xander better because of the main reason why he was doing what he did was more do to the fact the man he once knew back even though he was ultimately against it and his supports shows especially around his siblings and his retainer ing-laslow that he dose care about those around him camilla well I don't hate she is a good character her way of thinking dose bother me a bit she dose care about those around her and as crash said don't f**k with the "mother" when you endanger them she did give the scene that she doesn't care about the lives of bystanders of said opponents (see nohr ch 26 for that) as for supports like I said most I found good though im not a fan of ing-laslow and corrins support to me came off as creepy but overall shes not a bad character just not a fan. those are my thoughts and again thank you for the countdown and since your tweet announce you finish birthright I cant wait to see what your opinion is on them.

Xander is easily my fav in Fates He's is Ideal King Characters and that makes him awesome

Love the intro

Can't wait for Birthright characters (Birthright is my favorite so far and i'm up to chapter 18 in Conquest) My favorites are - Benny, Effie, Keaton, Peri, Odin, Niles and Xander (So far, Nyx is rather close as well as Leo)

That Bait-And-Switch on #3 had me crying I thought my Husband would be getting recognition :(

is seth still your favorite paladin after this list or has it changed to xander?
