---|
Subaki (Japanese: ツバキ Tsubaki) is a character in Fire Emblem Fates. He is a Sky Knight from Hoshido and subordinate of Sakura.
Biography
Subaki was born into a family belonging to the upper echelons of Hoshido, one that is renowned for having served the royal family for generations. His parents raised him to be a paragon of strength and skill. Following the footsteps of his ancestors, Subaki is thus instated as one of Sakura's personal retainers.
Birthright
Subaki is first introduced in Chapter 7 as one of Sakura's retainers, the other being Hana. He introduces himself as Sakura's "supervising retainer", much to the annoyance of Hana. After Sakura stops their argument, they both offer to help defend Fort Jinya from a Nohrian assault commanded by Silas.
After repelling this attack, Subaki joins Corrin for the rest of the story to help settle an age-old conflict shared between Hoshido and Nohr.
Conquest
Subaki appears in Chapter 22, defending Fort Jinya alongside Hana, Yukimura, and Sakura from Corrin's assault. Their efforts fail, and the fort falls to Nohr.
Revelation
Subaki appears at the end of Chapter 8, where he and Hana follow Sakura after she leaves to join Corrin's cause. Upon catching up with her, he immediately expresses relief before proclaiming that he and Hana will always support her in all the decisions that she makes. Subaki stays with Corrin for the rest of the story to stop the real threat, Anankos.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
As a Sky Knight, Subaki's growth rates are completely mismatched. His HP and defense growths are both excellent; with only 30% strength, he is basically unable to make effective attacks; and his skill, speed, and resistance growths match those of traditional Generals. Even as a Falcon Knight, his growths in his most critical stats (strength, speed, defense, and resistance) are all below 50%.
Subaki's personal skill Perfectionist is of little benefit to him; his luck is so low that the avoid boost is insufficient to reliably dodge most attacks, and his hit rate is already so high that the hit bonus is redundant.
Subaki is recruited on Chapter 7 of Birthright and Chapter 8 of Revelation, with the same stats in each campaign. His HP and defense bases provide workable bulk with weapon bonuses; his base speed and resistance are high, but unlikely to grow further; and his strength is too low to deal meaningful damage at base—coupled with his low strength growth, this persists throughout the game. His only outright positive is his flying ability. In Revelation Chapter 8, Subaki's flight allows him to rescue units blown away by the wind, and he is the only unit at this time to provide this benefit; however, flying utility is less beneficial in the chapters between then and when the next flying units—Reina in Chapter 11 and Camilla in Chapter 12—can be recruited.
When paired up, Sky Knight provides +3 speed, +3 resistance, and +1 movement; with Subaki's innate pair-up bonuses, this makes him a good pair up partner for low-speed, medium-defense characters. However, Reina, Hinoka, and Scarlet all provide better bonuses in the same areas.
Subaki can be useful as a General, which boosts his HP, strength, and defense growths, and mitigates his low speed with Wary Fighter. However, Knight is only available to Subaki through marrying female Corrin if it was selected as her talent.
Fire Emblem Heroes
Role
Subaki is one of the characters available to be summoned by players from the game's initial launch, and is also the fourth of twelve characters that are part of the game's Hero Battle rotation. He was first made available via Hero Battle at 7:00 AM UTC on February 5, 2017 through 6:59 AM UTC on February 6, 2017, and his Hero Battle has been available during the same time period every twelve days thereafter. Only one variation of Subaki is currently available in Heroes, based on his Fates incarnation.
Subaki is one of a select few characters to have been inherently available at all five rarities, although inherent availability at five-star rarity has been limited to summoning focuses.
