What is new in Fire Emblem Heroes Version 6.2.0 Patch Notes? – February 3, 2022

■ A new event, Summoner Duels S, is coming!

An even more challenging Summoner Duels event is on its way! Summoner Duels S is set to begin!

Summoner Duels S is an event in which you can battle to earn Glory until you lose three times, like Summoner Duels R. The main rules are the same as Summoner Duels R, but the key to victory in Summoner Duels S lies in its special veto rule! This new rule adds an extra element of brains to the brawn!

○ Editing Teams

To start playing Summoner Duels S, first you need to form a regiment made up of four teams each consisting of five Heroes. That’s a total of 20 Heroes! Keep in mind that you can only battle using one of the teams in your regiment, so be sure to form several strong teams.

Rules for Summoner Duels S Teams
・ You cannot add more than one Hero with the same name and epithet to your regiment, even if you are using two different copies of the same Hero. You must form a regiment of 20 different Heroes.
・ You can equip different Captain Skills for each team within your regiment.
・ You can save multiple regiments.
・ You cannot dispatch your teams unless all 20 slots in your regiment are filled.
・ You can only add one Hero with a Sing or Dance skill to a team.
・ You can only add one Hero with a Savior skill to a team.

○ Vetoing Teams

There is a special rule in Summoner Duels S that allows you to veto your opponent’s teams. After being matched up with an opponent, you choose which team to use in the match by following these steps.

1. Select Teams to Veto
Choose two of your opponent’s four teams to veto. The two teams you veto cannot be used in the match. You cannot view the opponent teams’ stats or Captain Skills during this step.

2. Choose Your Team
After both players have vetoed, you and your opponent choose one of the two remaining teams left in your regiments to dispatch.

The time limit for both steps 1 and 2 is 30 seconds. If the time limit is exceeded, teams will be automatically selected and combat will begin.

Note that in order to participate in Summoner Duels S, you must first earn the Fighter Badge, which can be obtained from Favor Battles. You can earn the Fighter Badge at Favor Level 225.

Other than the veto rule and the Fighter Badge necessary to participate, the rules for Summoner Duels S are the same as Summoner Duels R.

・ Bonus Legendary and Mythic Heroes

Three Bonus Legendary or Mythic Heroes are set each season for Summoner Duels S as well. Bonus Heroes reduce the amount of Glory lost upon a loss and nullify one defeat per season.

Note: If you have a Bonus Hero somewhere in your regiment, the above effects are active even if you dispatch a team without the Bonus Hero in it.

・ Glory

The Glory earned in Summoner Duels R and the Glory earned in Summoner Duels S are independent from one another.

・ Tier

Your Tier increases as your Glory increases in Summoner Duels S as well. Your Tiers for Summoner Duels R and Summoner Duels S are displayed separately on your Profile Card.

The first Summoner Duels S event is scheduled for 17/2/2022 7:00(UTC)

For the first Summoner Duels S event and only the first event, all players who participate will receive the highest rewards, regardless of their Tier and Rank! If you participate in a battle, you are guaranteed to receive the same rewards you would earn if you were within Tier 24 and Rank 1,000. This is an opportunity to get lots of Dragonflowers, Divine Codes, and more, so don’t let it pass you by!

Note: From the second Summoner Duels S on, the rewards wil be based on your Tier and Rank.

We will inform you of the details on Bonus Legendary and Mythic Heroes, etc., in a Coming Soon notification before the event is held.
