Smash Bros. SP: How to use Bylet / Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

According to the FE producer, you can say "Fire Emblem" when you write the word, but when you write it, you must write "Fire Emblem" or the Emblem Police will come. Be careful!

Fire Emblem
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The "Fire Emblem" series is a pioneering series of simulation games, the first of which was released on the Family Computer in 1990.
It was a game in which the player had to kill the characters (or "suffocate" them), which was unusual for Nintendo, and it was also innovative in its severe system in which once a character died, they would never come back.

Smash Bros.
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

FE Fuuka Setsugetsu is the 17th title in the series. If you count 17 in binary with one hand, you get that pose with the index, middle, and ring fingers up. You don't get that hint, do you!

Smash Bros.
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

In developing "Bylet/Byleth", they started development by looking at the FE Fuuka Setsugetsu ROM even before the game was released.
They had to start development of "Bylet/Byleth" even before the game was released in order to include the characters and their stories in Smash Bros.
That effort made it possible for him to participate in Smash Bros. SP six months after its release.

Since FE Fuuka Setsugetsu is a game where the experience and ending will differ depending on the user, "How to use Bylet / Byleth" is a spoiler-free introduction, so those who will be playing FE Fuuka Setsugetsu in the future can rest assured that it will be spoiler-free.

The main topic, "How to use Bylet / Byleth"

The previous episode "How to use Terry" was recorded about a month ago, but this episode "How to use Bylet / Byleth" was recorded in November, about two months before the distribution due to the New Year vacations and other reasons.
Therefore, there is a possibility that it may be slightly different from what is already available on the site.

The Basics of Bylet/Byleth

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Bylet/Byleth is a character with slightly lower mobility, but he is a fighter with a variety of attack methods that can be described as a demon of spacing.
The "Heroic Legacy" weapon used in the original story changes depending on the direction of the stick input.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The attack methods and spacing change depending on the "Hero's Legacy," so let's take a look at what kind of attacks he can make!

Magic Sword: Sword of the Emperor

The basic sword is the "Sword of the Emperor".
It is used for the Hyakusai attack, strong attack, dash attack, etc.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

For the upper smash attack, the "Sword of the Emperor" changes its shape and is flung with a bellows sword.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The mid-air attack swings the sword upward. The hit radius is long and persistent.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The "↑ + B" up attack extends the sword and draws it toward the opponent.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

After drawing the sword, it kicks the opponent downward.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

If the accumulated damage is low, the trajectory will be to launch upward.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It can also be used to catch a gakke, so it will be useful.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Magic Spear Aradoval

The "Hero's Legacy" horizontal attack is a spear with a long reach called the "Magic Spear Aradoval".
The front and back aerial attacks are linear and have a long reach.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The side smash attack is a thrust with a long reach that can be shifted up and down.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It becomes stronger when inputted upward.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

If the opponent is down, I can input downward and use it for a follow-up attack.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The tip of the spear is stronger.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

If you find the right timing and aim the blade upward, you can do a lot of damage.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The "← or → + B" special horizontal attack is a swing attack that boasts an extremely long reach.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The spear is raised after stepping forward, so it can hit even if you are a little far from your opponent.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It hits even if you are on a platform.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Note that it is weak against shields.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

When used in the air, it is a large knockout attack.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It is more effective than the horizontal smash attack for vertical spacing, but the landing gap is larger.

Magic Axe Aimur

The "Hero's Legacy" is a very powerful axe attack.
The lower aerial attack is a swing of the axe.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It is useful when you need to make a move, as it can also aim for a meteo.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The downward smash attack swings the axe left and right. It also has a blow up effect.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The "↓ + B" down special move is a full-throttle attack by stashing all of your energy.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

This is a romantic move similar to the Falcon Punch, but it has several characteristics.
While it is held, the attack is covered by "Super Armor," so it can withstand a few attacks.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It comes out a little slower than the Falcon Punch.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

While in stance, it is possible to grab it, so it is dangerous to use Super Armor too often.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It is also useful for surprise attacks, as it can get through terrain while it is in a stance.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

While in stance, you can swing left and right, so you can change direction according to your opponent's movement.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Since it is difficult to hit, it is recommended to aim at a crowded battle.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Even at a distance where you can barely hit the target, you can blow away a few opponents on the ground.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Be careful about using it on counters such as other Fire Emblem characters.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The counter doubles the power and is easy to see through, so there is a big chance that you will be hit hard by it.

Magic Bow Fail Note

The "Hero's Legacy" is a long-range weapon called the " Magic Bow Fail Note ".
The normal aerial attack is an attack that spins the bow on the spot and hits multiple times.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The bow is released with the "B" normal special move.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Unlike Link's bow, once the bow is tucked in, it is held in until the end and then the bow is released.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Since the bow cannot be released in mid-attack, the attack is fast and powerful.
The shield can be used to cancel the bow while it is being held back, so there is no need to worry.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

You can also turn to the left or right while aiming, so you can change direction according to your opponent's movement.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Holding down the button allows you to fire an arrow that looks like a ray of light. It is quite powerful.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

Once you enter the maximum aim, it cannot be canceled.
So, once you are in the maximum target, you can't do anything!

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

And be especially careful of opponents with reflectors!

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

If he prepares a reflector while you are in the maximum target, there is nothing you can do!

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

It has a very long range, so you can make the most of it.

The last trump card "Shinso Hatten"

The last trump card is "Shinso Hatten".

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The player attacks by joining forces with the mysterious woman "Sothis".
To find out who Sothis is, play FE Fuuka Setsugetsu!

Color variations

Not only colors, but "Bylet" and "Byleth" also change.
The odd-numbered players are "Bylet" and the even-numbered players are "Byleth". 1P and 2P are basic.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The 1P and 2P are the basic colors. 3P, 4P and 5P are the colors of some class leader. 6P is the color of Sothis.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The 6P color is the image of Sothis.

Bylet/Byleth
【スマブラSP】ベレト / ベレスのつかいかた

The 7P and 8P colors are for when something did something. See the original for what did what!
