Mjolnir’s Strike mode is only less than 2 months old. It was introduced in December. This week marks the 7th season: Xander. I started at tier 15 and going up 1 tier. I’ll be in tier 16 when next season start.
On the 1st season, there were almost 310K total rank in this mode. If we assume that there are 1 player per rank, there’re 310K total players. I was curious to find out how many people play this new game mode, so I started Fire Emblem Heroes game on a different device. I’ve installed the game on my ipad, but I don’t really play on that device. I mostly just start up, collect the orb and do occasional summoning on that device.
Unfortunately, we can only see rank if we play the game mode. Since I was curious, I simply build up a team with no mythic hero, then auto battle the easier mode. I got a score of 340. To my surprise, that score is good enough to promote to tier 2. With that score, I got a 173K rank.
It looks like Mjolnir’s Strike game mode is not as popular as I thought it’d be. Since, actual data is not publicly available, I’m going to guess that we’re already loosing about 33% of players since this game mode was launched last month.
Based on some feedback on reddit, it seems that many people do not play the game mode because they missed it, forget to play. Some say the rewards are not interesting as nobody know what divine code is used for. IS will need to rectify the issue really soon.
