Understanding Spd Difference Modification in Fire Emblem Heroes (Frozen, Potent, & More!) 

Watching Vaike double my fastest units is both hilarious and depressing. Spd has always been very fickle since 1 point can lead to a follow-up and that completely shifts match-ups. They haven't gone too crazy with Spd Difference Modifying skills...yet. Frozen is a little concerning due to just the sheer amount of extra Spd it requires, but it is tied to Def and can be avoided/cleansed. Still, it is just wild to see in action.

Can we go back to the first year of the game so we don't have to think about any of this XDDD Dear lord this is nuts 🤣🤣

Thank you for this. IntSys really should be using Skill Studies to do this

this stuff definitely got confusing 😭😭 but at least now i understand the difference between “natural” (+5 speed needed) and “free” (given by weapon/skill) follow-ups. that was very helpful!

This makes a lot of sense now. I had given up on understanding Potent and Frozen, but this video is a nice visual representation of the forces at play. I feel a Scowl/Rally Spectrum/Hush Spectrum video in this format would also help new players out in terms of visualizing that interaction.

Amazing stuff as always. This is a great topic that many people get confused on and you couldn’t have done it any better

Thank you so much for doing this! At this rate FEH will require us to start adding calculus by the end of next year!

Frozen stat eff might be great for speedy saves. Since they always fall flat compared to nuke's stat swing. Frozen actually guarantees the follow-up denial since all saves will out-def nukes by significant amount

At least middling speed units have a glimmer of hope.

W video as always 🙏

haha this is wild, I just got Hrid today so I hadn't researched how his skill worked yet. Complicated but hilarious

Funny how I bothered to understand how Potent works so I googled it earlier today and this pops up Thank you for your work 🙏

This is a fantastic explanation for a complicated topic! Thanks for putting this together!

You’re literally a saint for this bro I was struggling out there😭😭

Thanks SacredSpear. I just kinda stopped caring, so having this video helps out so much.

Thank you for this video explaining all the different Spd-rules and the history of what Speed manipulation has gone through up until this recent point of Diamant, [Frozen], and Potent. I could hear some voice cracks towards the end, probably due to how many re-recordings there had to have been, and I appreciate the effort! I personally hadn't thought about how [Frozen] would work with guaranteed/preventing follow-up skills and it made a bit more complicated than I imagined at first. I think I know why [Null Follow-Up], Fast Arcane Weapons and other recent NFU skills have a "unit Spd > foe Spd" condition now, because they didn't want slow units like Hrid to be abusing easy Null Follow-Up together with [Frozen], which would've been extremely scary. So at least having natural Speed is good for that.

Wow...this is a really good explanation. I never understood how this mechanic works, and I finally do now (I think). Great video!

Excelent video, help a lot to understand the SPD mods and follow up mechanics

Good stuff man!

Thanks for an incredible video again!! Excellent presentation and examples! X3

Thanks so much for this! Maybe now peeps will realize Frozen is a bit better than most give it credit for~

Man I sure to love math💀 I appreciate you trying to explain this mechanic to everyone cause I still struggle to understand any of it like the clown I am.🤡 This speed altering mechanic is definitely Intelligent Systems new favourite “toy” to play with except it to get worse.😰 Also I just tried the map your using and my Attuned Ivy can take him out no problems….thank god. Safy and her repair staff could also help after enemy phase to remove it too though that’s only on player phase.

Man, this game is becoming so complex... haha I really want to give some form of "frozen" status to my Masquerade Eldigan, since he has somewhat workable spd and wants to stack defense anyway.

In short we need a mathematics degree in order to understand Feh mechanics

The math for these rules feel like they were written for a tax loophole lol.

The comment section is a rollercoaster of emotions.

Things have become far too complicated to enjoy this game.

Haven’t started the vid, thought its just 25 phantom speed effectively Edit: my brain melting i think ill just press end turn
