It also felt a little paint-by-the-numbers formulaic as it set the table for quite a few plot threads – including the end of the world.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate saw its latest DLC fighter enter the battle this week. The 7.0 patch brought Byleth, the main character of Fire Emblem: Three Houses. And although a certain group of gardening tools might be mad at the prospect, Byleth does offer some strategic play thanks to their mastery of different weapons. We’ll be taking a look at one of these weapons – the lance. With some precise placement, Byleth players can KO an opponent as early as 30%....
