I love the fates Support Based Reclassing System, where characters gain new class options based on who they build rank with. I think this strikes the perfect balance between the customizability reclassing offers and the distinct unit identities offered in No Reclass games. Sakura is really the perfect example of this, since she has the stats and skills to work well in a large variety of classes, but is unable access some of the more powerful ones, like Sniper or Bow Knight, and is slow to enter others, like Dark Knight or Sorcerer, thanks to her potential partners arriving late. So, lets take a look at Corrin's youngest sister, and see what options she has, and which she misses out on, as well as how her performance in them is.

Rev is my favorite Fire Emblem game, but because of its (IMO Undeserved) reputation, I don't see much Fire Emblem Content surrounding it. Well, as someone who has played Rev more than most people, I intend to change that. So I'm going to do a deep dive into the entire cast (both gen 1 and gen 2) and talk about them for way too long as units. This series is heavily inspired (read: straight up stolen) from ‪@badatlife‬ who does a similar thing for Birthright (another often hated game in the fates trilogy). If he's the "Birthright Guy" my hope is to be the "Rev Girl" although I'll let y'all be the judge of that. By the end of this series, my goals are to 1) give an in depth guide to multiple builds each unit can accomplish and 2) rank the units in a Tier List.
