After rounds of voting and Voting Gauntlets, this year’s A Hero Rises event has concluded for Fire Emblem Heroes. Taking the crown isn’t a Three Houses character (as has been the trend in anything popularity based since the game’s launch) but instead a character long time fans met nearly twenty years ago.
Announcing the winner of the A Hero Rises 2021 event! After a long and arduous battle, Lyn has emerged victorious in the Voting Gauntlet! Thank you for your support and your votes. Lyn: Ninja-Friend Duo will be gifted to all players Mar. 10, 11 PM PT! #FEHeroes pic.twitter.com/gDChsk0Xa5

None other than Lyn has secured victory, being Saint Seiros in the final round of this competition. More specifically it’s Ninja Lyn, or Lyn: Ninja–Friend Duo. This otherwise seasonal/thematic alt brings along fellow Blazing Blade character Florina and some powerful shuriken to make for one of Heroes’ most impressive dagger wielders.
All players will receive Ninja Lyn for free on March 10th. She’ll also appear in a summoning focus along with other top-placing characters Seiros, Legendary Dimitri, and Legendary Corrin in late March.
