I have learned from this playthrough that King Ashnard actually had a second hidden heir. It's Excelblem. Only a man of Excelblem's wisdom could be Ashnard's child. Just look how hard he makes things for himself to try to win. Amazing.

Ike truly fights for his friends. Well remaining ones.

Ilyana being alive at the end is truly survival of the funniest

Ashnard managed to stop Excelblem’s evil plan by sacrificing himself Truly the hero we needed

Make sure to pay your respects to the many Partner Unit Holy Guard members who died when Tanith sent them out to constantly partake in reckless strategies.

I have to say as someone who has unfortunately played maniac mode, I am shocked at how few attempts this took, that the knife sage meme didnt punish you harder, and that you got less characters killed on purpose than I expected

If pokemon taught me anything is that flying types hate rocks. Poor poor little bird went squish.

51:34 EAT ROCK EAT ROCK EAT ROCK

I honestly cannot believe you found a way to make FE9 more tedious and then actually survived doing it

Ashnard and excelblem are definitely related

It’s so cool that the game actually recognize if you lose early game units. Those small details make the game feel so much more real

Ike was so done with Excelblem that he Aether'd as much as possible to protect his sister from unnecessary harm, truly best bro...to bad his boyfriends died.

There's nothing quite like an Excelblem run ☠️

I had no idea stephan existed until I accidentally got him on my second playthrough of radiant dawn. Genuinely fascinating that he exists at all.

Having the Black Knight theme quietly play everytime Zelgius appears is genius im dying 😂

Not ONE mention of the several times the holy guard got crits and saved your healers from certain death?

This time I decided to wait for the compilation before watching any of this, and it's kinda worth it honestly, getting the full movie experience out of this is pretty great.

Ah, Maniac Mode. I did what my friends nicely called a “tin-man” of it when I started actually doing the ironman after Chapter 6 (I am not good at Fire Emblem). Honestly it was mostly fun, although my endgame was far more dire than yours. I had some pretty screwed units stat-wise, and a Resolve-Wrath Ike because I was convinced that consistency was smarter than luck. Instead of turtling, I did an all out push to the right, resulting in basically all of my units getting killed except for Ike. One by one they all fell, leaving Ike damn near surrounded and pretty low. Ashnard moved right into Ike’s move range, where I took out his first phase on player phase. Phase 2 Ashnard then proceeded to move first, miss, allowing Ike to finish him off during enemy phase. Probably one of my favorite experiences playing Fire Emblem, even if my finale was literally just Ike and the 6 remaining no kill units. Maniac Mode RD is, in my experience, much easier, but also proportionally much less fun

I never knew Ike starting with 4 Iron Swords is a Glitch. I allways thought that it should illustrate that he wants to be super prepared on his first mission. Awesome run though

my favorite part of path of radiance is when ike didn't know what the fuck was going on

It's well and truly magnificent gameplay. There's so many more survivors than usual, too. Peak performance, indeed.

Can you really call it the worst way possible if the Greater Victory wasn't achieved?

This run was so fun! Ur awesome excelblem : )

Ah man is this a treat! I always love the bigger, full collection vids.

Oh I am so excited to watch this so many times

20:19 "Needless to say... this is bullshit" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

Just rewatched all the recaps for this playthrough yesterday and the compilation drops immediately afterwards!

"Who will remain relevant for the entire game" Unless you accidentally get her killed early on... Let's see what happens here

you are a madman. well done!

i swear, the joke that those character are originate from super smash bros, never gets old

i just want to say divinly mandated plot armor bullshit is the best way to define the black knights armor's blessing lol

Ilyana lives. Yes Chad Ilyana. Best mage no cap

I can't believe i missed this

hmm....radiance down maniac.........THAT will be MAJOR PAIN for sure....

I didn't realize him starting with four iron swords was a glitch lmao

THANK YOU 🙏

To the enemy soldier who killed Reyson, I would give him a medal, and place it next to his grave.

Love this game so much🙏

I will be using this video to argue Ilyana>All other mages in the future

Best part about this video is seeing this guy promote each Wiz to a frail knife wearing gansta of a Sage lmao

Tanith Lives!

The rocks reminded me of that Iron Man Mekkah did where Mist had 30HP and got hit by all those three rocks.

How about Radiant Dawn Randomized Hard Mode now?

Oh wow, how did I forget that you actually did have to take two attempts at PoR because of your insane greed against the second map lmao Meaning, Boyd, Oscar, and Titania died twice in this. And Ike once. Neat!

bruh. the "background" music so loud it turned your voiceover into the background music xD

Just when I thought Ranulf was safe from the hands of Excelblem. 💀

Shinon should've died right away lol

No shot that they called that place Crimea, thats too real 💀

thoughts on a no promotion fe sacred stones run?

Easy game, but some people can't get past chapter 21 ...

one thing I really don't like about PoR and RD's final bosses is the immunity they have (this is worse in RD where Ike is the only one that can kill the final boss)

If Ike is from fire emblem one….then where’s talys?

NOOOOOO THEY GOT MY GIRL NEPHENEE

I can't hear you over the music

There's no way in hell that I would ever play be the "game over start the whole game over rule" WHY would you WANT to do that?!

😂

This game made me more racist against laguz because they were all shitty units.

Bruh. I completed Path of Radiance in alll difficulties. I played hard mode (Maniac) and I completed it with EVERYONE alive and i didn't lose any comrades. The top 5 of the ones who defeated enemies the most is: 1.Ike, 2. Lethe, 3. Nephenee, 4. Marcia and 5. Mia in all 3 difficulties. I did my best to make and put them on The Top 5 by using them a lot the most in all and every chapters. So yeah, i played this game a lot. I still can't believe that you lost Lethe, Nephenee, Mia and Marcia. Those are the best characters to me and there my favorites (and my waifus). And I have proof for I still have the memory card of the game and the safe data. It took me hours to complete the final chapter on the hardest difficulty. I mean I did make mistakes in the past that every time a character gets defeated, I turn off the game and start all over again and complete every chapters with every characters alive. And when I was this close of completing Maniac mode, I accidentally press the wrong button of letting Ike attack Ashnard with half of his life and Ike was defeated and game over and that made my blood boiled with rage, I just lost half of hour of progress and I was this close of completing Maniac with everyone alive. So I try again and I completed Maniac with everyone alive and without making a mistake and try to be careful of not letting a single character get defeat. The first time I completed Path of Radiance on Easy Mode, all the characters have been defeated and I had only just 5 characters remaining 😅. And I never knew that losing a character would really gone forever, for I though you would play the characters again even if they are defeated but that's not how Fire Emblem works and I just learned the hard way 😅. Because this is the very first Fire Emblem Game that I ever played. And this isn't like Pokemon, when a Pokemon gets defeated, you can play the Pokemon again that got defeated by recovering them. I though it was something like that in Fire Emblem but i was wrong, its nothing like Pokemon. From that day on, I try my best by completing the game with everyone alive. And I did the same thing with Sacred of Stones on the Gameboy Advanced.
