Mythic Hero Battle: Askr Strategy

Use a Player Phase strategy with Galeforce and repeated actions

With six foes at the start of the match, it is possible to use a strategy involving repeated actions using Galeforce or Duo/Harmonized skills to clear the map on turn one, or eliminate most of the enemies and kite the remaining leftovers.

Units like Ninja Lyn, Ninja Corrin (F), and Summer Edelgard work fantastic in this map with their own abilities to generate additional actions. The Ninja duos can use their Duo Skills while Summer Edelgard can use Raging Storm to create an additional action for themselves. Summer Edelgard can even equip Galeforce to get a third action!

With proper setup, a team based on Wings of Mercy can also clear the map on turn one. Running recoil skills such as Fury 4 on your initiator can allow the rest of the team to warp in and clean house.

Key support units for this strategy include Hatari Azura and New Year Peony. These two refresher units can generate an additional action for an ally with their unique refresh skills, and another action on top of that with their own Duo/Harmonized skills too.

Use a Hit and Run strategy with Canto Units

Alternatively, you can opt for a Hit and Run strategy using units with post-combat movement, whether it's Canto effects or additional actions.

The units in the above strategy work for this one as well; simply retreat using their final actions after defeating some enemies.

Units like Scion Leif, Legendary Leif, and heroes with Galeforce also work for a Hit and Run strategy.

Heroes excelling at allowing your units to retreat include Valentine's Chrom, Legendary Chrom, and Legendary Lucina. Their unique Assist skills allow repositioning allies while retaining their actions

F2P options for this strategy include Reginn (obtained for free on Book 5, Chapter 1, Map 5) and Brave Eirika (if you chose her on the free summon for Choose Your Legends 5) as offensive units with Canto, and Peony as a refresher support capable of granting Formation/Orders buffs to her allies.

Watch out for Legendary Marth's Even Tempest 3!

Legendary Marth has Even Tempest 3 equipped. This allows him to obtain additional movement on even-numbered turns, which may surprise you and defeat an unsuspecting hero.

Keep this skill in mind during even-numbered turns and do not rely on the Danger Area.
