I've never heard of this until recently, when a friend brought it up. We're starting in about a week or so.

For those who don't know, a Fire Emblem draft works like this:

-You get a few people together
-You have a list of all the playable characters in the game
-You take turns "drafting" characters onto your team, until all the characters are gone (if numbers don't work out evenly, you either ban a couple characters or just leave the worst ones as undrafted)
-Everyone starts a new file, and is only allowed to utilize the characters they drafted
-All lords are available to all characters
-Whoever advances farthest in the game without a game over wins.
-No resets allowed.

Typically you play on the highest difficulty, to minimize the chances of ties, but regardless there are tiebreakers in place such as fewest turns, most money, etc.

Anyone have any advice on this? Or any experience?

I'm doing FE7, Hector Hard Mode with 4 people. So we all get the 3 lords plus 10 characters.

Obviously, Matthew is insanely valuable. Beyond that I think probably Serra and Priscilla gotta be up there.
