Ephraim

@microwave sorry man, this is an abandoned project. Obviously I still use steam and will talk about it, but I no longer am going to work on this character. I very highly suggest making your own balance for him though. It's really not too hard! You just have to find his files in your steam files (which can be a little hard, but I believe in you), and then use that as a base for a new character. All you'll need to do is edit some variables that control startup time and endlag of moves, and any other variables you want to change. It'll be a bit of work, but it'd be fun and I fully encourage anyone to do that. If anyone uploads a balance patch as a new character I'll link it in the bio of this character

@Nauraim I know this might be to much to ask and its fair if you just ignore but as a suggestion i was wondering if you could balance the character so I could actually use him competitively against other players and my friend

@Nauriam Don't worry about it. It's a cool character. Just too strong to be played in a fair match.

@azathoth those are all good points. I wasn't really designing Ephraim with the intention of making him balanced in any way. When he was made, it was popular to make slightly overpowered characters so I tried to roughly match the power level of other popular characters I liked (also I am not good at game design or balance anyway). This was just a small passion project of mine, and if anyone wants to make a re-balance using my assets that's totally fine with me. I know that having a character overpowered makes it so its less fun to play with them, so sorry that you're experiencing that.

cool character, but incredibly overpowered. a frame 2-3 counter that you can do anywhere is just a tad absurd. that and most of their moves are faster than sai-m's moves (utterly busted), with some range and power behind them also. projectiles are mostly fine, except for the spear throw. its also really strong.

@Grapes Much appreciated!

@Cabbage-san I used a stage called FE Battle for the images. It's been around for forever. Here's a link: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1907241819&searchtext=fire+emblem

Can't find the stage depicted anywhere, but I would love to download it. Have a version of Final Destination that is just the FE battle screen? Count me in!

ok i understand that trust me
I would use a version of jab for his chrouch and DStrong, let him thrust forward and, "pro"-tipp, just reverse the animation and let him thrust backwards with the blund end of the stick
and same goes for BAir as well
don't force him to use the pointi end

i think DStrong suffers a lot from the huge arch it has to travel while you try to reverse it.
Same goes for Bair, it has practically no reach despite being a thrust-attack with an lance

and as for FStrong I'd use l an edited version of FSpecial for the startup so that it doesn't look like DStrong

just some ideas

Yeah, that's because I am completely new to pixelart and animation, so I'm simply not skilled enough to make nice animations. Down smash is one of the roughest of the bunch
