The Iron Cavalry of Glamoth was made up of genetically engineered soldiers made to fight inside the SAM armors. Even if it's not fully confirmed, this trailer hints that they were probably all clones or at least genetically close with very slight differences, maybe depending on the type of SAM armor they'd have to wear, like the boyish one having a bigger mech or the Type-V having a more adult look.
I think the adult look is just more experience like Firefly having long hair means she lives long enough for her hair to grow. So the older ones have more experience and has a higher rank.
I'd wager the Type-V is actually older; one of the other commenters pointed out how her entropy loss syndrome seems more severe, with it appearing on her face once she left the suit unlike all the younger fyreflies; it'd also explain why she appears to be higher on the chain of command. Makes me wonder what the deal is with promotions and seniority and stuff in the Iron Cavalry, too. Red glasses tells our Firefly that her longer hair signifies her experience, and the 3 junior flies mention how they were the only survivors around, probably meaning on the planet, maybe even the surrounding star system. Maybe if you're a pilot skilled enough to survive long enough to grow up a little you get progressively nicer suits until the entropy loss gets you? Really interesting setting, HSR's been killing it lately.
@@DanHengs_Property Yeah and we were kinda lucky that we only encountered few insects, what Firefly and her companions encountered numbered in millions that's also duplicating and multiplying
If Firefly managed to live, it's not impossible for her peers to survive as well, idk about her senior though, her syndrome seems much worse than the others, considering her age compared to them
@@soep19 idk if it’s age tbh, or maybe it’s because she is a newer model, she ages faster with the same syndrome in exchange for more strength due to the modifications
There's always the possibility that some of them went their own ways during the chaos and cut all communication from each other so they can be free, so eventually the trailblazers might run into them. Just a possibility.
Fun fact, Glamoth actually survived the Swarm but barely, the aftermath is what killed them, thousands of destroyed debris of their ships and weapons blot out their sun and I heard another wave of the Swarm was coming so yeah, Glamoth had no room to breathe at all😅😅
No, Glamoth planar set tells that things start to fall apart when they defeated Swarm. Historians assume that this happened because it was revealed that Empress Titania to whom Iron Cavalry has owe to serve was just a mere puppet in the hands of council.
@@alexpav845it's still shrouded in mystery, we may have a future plot about discovering what the hell happened to the Glamoth empire, and maybe, just maybe, find a way to save Firefly from the disease
A nice detail is that, just before Firefly gets her headband, you can see in the other two the entropic loss syndrome, so it seems that being out of the mecha make it "advance".
Indeed. They can stay out few minutes. And getting older makes it worse. The older one started to have scars after few seconds outside the suit. At some point, also the suit is not enough.
Entropy Loss Syndrome seem to be Glammoth Empire's kill switch to have the Knights relatively in line, or if Glammoth survive its destruction, possibly a way to self-destruct the Knights as they are no longer needed.
@@Huyrrou Indeed. The lore does mention that the Glamoth Empire did eventually turn against the Iron Calvary Knights after they started to become too numerous even compared to the Swarm.
The line about the length of Firefly's hair being very unique and proof of her experience is actually super dark, because it implies that it's rare for individual knights to survive long enough that their hair could even grow long.
Most likely all the pilots are mass produced military clones with different SAM types since playable Firefly is Type IV and the cool read one is Firefly Type V.
The information we know from favor text and things said in the game: -Glamoth used to be a massive, interastral empire. -The Swarm came. -Glamoth have been losing territory to it nonstop until they were pushed back to their capital star system. -The Iron Cavalry showed up controlled by Titania who has been created to deal with the threat. -The Iron Cavalry is genetically engineered clones piloting mech armors(or power armor for all the WH40K and Fallout fans) -They were winning! -Until the final battle that made that part of the Swarm leave/die out. The sheer amount of debris from the mechs and corpses from the bugs and the pilots all combined have permanently blocked out the sun. THE END Our little DOOMSLAYER can't be this cute.
Iron Cavalry are also close to Operators from Warframe, being child warriors that control powerful humanoid-sized and shaped biomechanical combat platforms. Also, there is one Warframe named Titania who controls insect-like Razorwings and is able to change herself into flying faerie form. Operators and Warframes also were created and used for fighting Sentients - an ever-adapting nemesis of a human Orokin Empire, who came from the stars beyond Origin System and converted any advanced combat techonology Orokin were throwing at them.
Love all the characters in this Edit: rewatching this I bet the last pilot didn’t get out of the mech because they were worried the others would see how far their entropy loss syndrome was- they didn’t want to spoil the mood.
Good point. However, she looked 25ish. Maybe Firefly has still a decade of life, and not a couple of years. Still few, but at least death is not imminent for her.
@@happypepper9326considering she's type-V which is the latest, there's a possibility that they're "strenght in exchange for life" type. Much stronger but shorter life span than the older types
Gotta love when the military industrial complex decides that as part of their amoral plans, all genetically engineered disposable soldiers also have to be hot
That is kind of funny yeah. It actually implies the state of their technology isn't all that high. Because if you can do hard genetic edits you'd likely end up with fairly hideous soldiers. Just because there isn't too much reason not to do stuff like stack extra organs and other stuff that adds to survivability. If they are actually just mass producing templates that are still human looking it implies they don't actually have the technology to make something more effective.
We know that all pilots of SAMs are genetically engineered. I think all of them have Entropy Loss Syndrome as a byproduct of their genetic engineering, and probably the base genetic makeup of every SAM warrior is the same. It makes sense for there to be partial cloning in the creation of these warriors because I would think that using the same genetic makeup as the base would have made the process quicker and less costly. I assume every SAM will share the same colored eyes and silver hair. I don't know if the suits are completely massed produced or if each individual pilot can customize their suit to best fit their body type and combat style. It seems that each suit is unique, but then again, we only saw 4 of them. Only thing in common between the suits is that they rely heavily on fire. Something that I noticed was that none of the soldiers ever called each other by name. It also appears that they didn't know each other before this encounter. Firefly even called herself by a unit number, not even her name. This trailer shows that all SAM pilots are humans, and that despite the strictness of their code and their devotion to their people, they each have developed unique personalities and have different experiences. By contrast, it appears that the people who created them never saw them as people. It echoes what we've already heard: SAMs were only created to be weapons. Firefly even admitted in her memory with Blade that she still saw herself as only a weapon. Here though, we see a side to all SAMs that perhaps even their own people were never allowed to see I think Firefly was the one who gave herself the name Firefly. She's discovering who she wants to be, not who someone else created her to be. And if we do meet other SAMs later in game, perhaps we'll get to help them on their journey as well. Love this trailer, and I can't wait for the animated short.
According to relic lore, Titania was the first genetically modified weapon created by Glamoth to fight in the Swarm Disaster, and that all of the iron cavalry are identical clones. So yes, all the thousands/millions of members of the Iron Calvary Knights are technically related (or rather, the same person).
The reason why everyone looks similar is probably not because that what people from Glamoth look like but rather the fact that the SAM pilots are all genetically engineered warrior. This is implying that when they first got engineered they all looked the same or very similar to each other and the only way to look different was by changing their hair or accessories. And if more playable version will come that's a solid maybe. Glamoth was destroyed during the Swarm Disaster, which happened before Nanook became the Aeon of Destruction so most of them would probably died from either battle or old age, assuming the pilots have a similar life to humans. Which also implies Firefly is older than Nanook, though currently we have no idea how she managed to stay alive all this time.

@@al103 They literally have the three different Fireflies as Kaworu (laid back, boy), Mari (outgoing, glasses) and Rei (aloof, socially awkward, obsessed with protocol). They're in EVA inspired skinsuits. I'd be surprised if they told us it WASN'T an EVA reference.
Such good music design The heavy synth SAM theme BUH-DUH-DUH-DUUUUUH-DA being the same as the gentle piano music when they take off - instrumentation does wonders
Firefly is one of the first Stellaron Hunter members. Based on the Lore that was OFFICIALLY released: 1,2, or 3: Elio, Trailblazer, and/or Firefly (There is no clarity yet) 4. Kafka. 5: Blade. 6. Silver Wolf.
Do you heard of "Witch From Mercury"? The MC Suletta is one of the clone of the original human baby called Eri, which she is used for her mother revenge plans, and she rides a gundam that has other clones' souls from Eri are in it; here in hsr, Firefly has clones like herself, but a bit different too, has young boy, teen girls, woman figures as well, but they have their own SAM suit. Suletta and Firefly did have a HUGE family with their own faces.
5:43 they all do, it's either using SAM or their test tube origins that does it to them. FF is the second oldest in this and has the second worst case Type V is the oldest and has it the worst. They're soldiers that were exceedingly unlikely to live long enough for it to become an issue (hence the remark on FF having long hair).
Also the other pilots have references to the other Eva Pilots. With the one with glasses being Mari, the male one being like Kaworu and the older one being like Rei.
Firefly will be the first and probably only limited character I'm pulling Eidolons for, I've been waiting for SAM / Firefly ever since Kafka's Myriad Celestia. I've got 250 pulls saved up for E2S1, and I'll be willing to set my wallet ablaze🔥
I like how hopeful this was. Even though the universe and the Iron Cavalry of Glamoth are surrounded by tragedy, that tragedy need not come to pass. The war ended, and Firefly survived. As they parted they cast their fervant wish to the stars that someday, freed from this war, they might be reunited. I too hope for that day to come.
2:44 Well mina they're Genetically engineered super soldiers so of course they'll all look alike. Way easier to create many of the same type of soldier than to give them individual features. The small different features you see is what they choose to do for themselves to add to their individuality like the glasses and hair pins on the one girl or Firefly putting on the ribbon and hair band.
Well technically they are most likely all dead minus firefly. Cuz the glamoth planar ornament set. Plus their queen made most of the Sam pilots look like the queen, and she basically just controls them all. Maybe we might get a survivor of glamoth and hopefully more Sam characters to have on our team. But most likely not possible and most likely everyone from glamoth minus Sam are gone forever and dead. I do wish I could e6s5 firefly but I think at most I can e0s0 maybe s1 if I’m lucky but I only have enough to full pity, but also gotta hope I win the 50/50 unless someone wanna help me get her or they get me e6 firefly but that’s hella unlikely
Btw in kafkas story 5 it tells us how elllio recruited her the guy he sended for recruition had a high chance of dying and the only way he would survive was kafka gettibg distracted for a second it was so cool to read
@@dopeydoughnut6334 hate to break it to ya but this trailer if it's not foreshadowing all of them about to die in the animated short might be foreshadowing firefly's real death and the search for her companions once she's gone.
It looks like Mina may have missed the fact that all of Iron Cavalry are a mass produced Bio Weapon clones (thats why they look so similar), and they all have entropy loss syndrome since they're designed to not live long after the war - they're just seen as an explandable cogs in war machine (similar to clones in Star Wars, for example). Thats even the namesake of Firefly unit - meant to burn until buring to ash in a short time
I’ve had a feeling since the special program when they mentioned that the Iron Calvary was genetically modified that they were clones or at least something very similar clones, and this trailer seemingly confirmed that.
For elaboration, lore wise Firefly was genetically modified to be a “war machine” which is why in 2.1 SAM/Firefly said that they cant dream because that was taken away from through the modification and it’s also why she has Entrophy Loss Syndrome as do all the other Firefly’s…all “Firefly’s” look the same because of this modification, and also they were all meant to die after the war on their planet was over.
All the SAM's are basically clones thats why they look similar. Firefly's illness is caused by the stellaron hunters messing with her genetic code so she doesnt have to follow orders anymore.
"The saviors that we didn't deserve, but that we need so much" ;D But it is quite possible that something bad happened to them, because the Firefly is now alone
Firefly is quite literally HSR Master Chief • Genetically modified super soldier, such modifications made without consent • Has served in an army their whole life, defying regulations but getting away with it • Experienced and respected even among others like her • One of the last of their generation • VERY dangerous if you give them a reason to be; seen by their enemies to be a ruthless and violent killer / 'Demon' • Futuristic cyborg mech suit that supports many of their vital functions after the modifications were made
The SAM's are all genetically modified/test tube super soldiers. So silver hair could be a common Glamoth feature, or something caused by the gene mods.
If i recall from the lore, Glamoth lost the war against the Swarm so it's very doubtful that these characters other than Firefly survived. It's possible but usually in lore videos like these the outcome is mostly dire.
not exactly it is pretty normal to find other survivors when the character think he is the last one, it is almost cliche actually hahahah like a rival or villain that will turn side later (since firefly isn't the main character it can be only a person she knows), not sure if it will happen here though
@@diegovinicius6100 the emphasis on the last girl does kind of make me think she's important. It reminded me of Jinglui in the General's trailer that she became important characters.
I noticed when they first exit the armor they look normal, but near the end of the video you can see entropy loss syndrome causing those cracks on their faces. They can’t even stay out of the armor all that long.
I absolutely love this Myriad. Normally they all look the same because they're all based around the DNA of Glamoth's queen, Titania (who can also psychically control them). I'm going for E2 for Firefly, the immediate action after killing or breaking looks so good (also after E1, skill doesn't cost SP if you activate her Complete Combustion state)

DON'T LET HER KNOW

Wait till she watches the next one.
The Iron Cavalry of Glamoth was made up of genetically engineered soldiers made to fight inside the SAM armors. Even if it's not fully confirmed, this trailer hints that they were probably all clones or at least genetically close with very slight differences, maybe depending on the type of SAM armor they'd have to wear, like the boyish one having a bigger mech or the Type-V having a more adult look.
I think the adult look is just more experience like Firefly having long hair means she lives long enough for her hair to grow. So the older ones have more experience and has a higher rank.
Maybe the adult one is just older, and seeing her scars also soon after leaving the armour, she is probably near to her death.
I'd wager the Type-V is actually older; one of the other commenters pointed out how her entropy loss syndrome seems more severe, with it appearing on her face once she left the suit unlike all the younger fyreflies; it'd also explain why she appears to be higher on the chain of command.
Makes me wonder what the deal is with promotions and seniority and stuff in the Iron Cavalry, too. Red glasses tells our Firefly that her longer hair signifies her experience, and the 3 junior flies mention how they were the only survivors around, probably meaning on the planet, maybe even the surrounding star system. Maybe if you're a pilot skilled enough to survive long enough to grow up a little you get progressively nicer suits until the entropy loss gets you? Really interesting setting, HSR's been killing it lately.

The heavy synth SAM theme BUH-DUH-DUH-DUUUUUH-DA being the same as the gentle piano music when they take off - instrumentation does wonders
that trailer was so beautiful it was everything i was hoping for and more 😢❤
(oh yeah, I'm going for E6 Firefly hehe oops)
Sam set your sleep schedule Ablaze.
Firefly is one of the first Stellaron Hunter members.
Based on the Lore that was OFFICIALLY released:
1,2, or 3: Elio, Trailblazer, and/or Firefly (There is no clarity yet)
4. Kafka.
5: Blade.
6. Silver Wolf.
This video is so beautiful and so heartwarming and wholesome and the music and voice acting is beautiful
Do you heard of "Witch From Mercury"? The MC Suletta is one of the clone of the original human baby called Eri, which she is used for her mother revenge plans, and she rides a gundam that has other clones' souls from Eri are in it; here in hsr, Firefly has clones like herself, but a bit different too, has young boy, teen girls, woman figures as well, but they have their own SAM suit. Suletta and Firefly did have a HUGE family with their own faces.
MINA I WAS LITERALLY DOING THE SAME I WAS IN BED ABOUT TO CHILL THEN SAW THE VIDEO FOR FIREFLY POSTED SO I JUMPED OUTTA BED TO RECORD LOL
5:43 they all do, it's either using SAM or their test tube origins that does it to them. FF is the second oldest in this and has the second worst case Type V is the oldest and has it the worst. They're soldiers that were exceedingly unlikely to live long enough for it to become an issue (hence the remark on FF having long hair).
Little did Mina know that there was a Sam that hid a Yanqing inside...
Also the other pilots have references to the other Eva Pilots. With the one with glasses being Mari, the male one being like Kaworu and the older one being like Rei.
Honestly the Sams worrying about being able to tell each other apart really gives me the same vibes as the clones in star wars and it's so SADDDDDDDD
Just remember, we also got an animated short next so its prob gonna be recruiting the hunters or … o7 other fireflies
6:56 description of her light cone speaks about it.
i agree with mina, this was a really cute and beautiful trailer and they're all SO PRETTY 😭🫶🏼
Firefly will be the first and probably only limited character I'm pulling Eidolons for, I've been waiting for SAM / Firefly ever since Kafka's Myriad Celestia. I've got 250 pulls saved up for E2S1, and I'll be willing to set my wallet ablaze🔥
I like how hopeful this was. Even though the universe and the Iron Cavalry of Glamoth are surrounded by tragedy, that tragedy need not come to pass. The war ended, and Firefly survived. As they parted they cast their fervant wish to the stars that someday, freed from this war, they might be reunited. I too hope for that day to come.
I WANT ALL THE SAMS!!!
HOYO NOT ONLY TEASED 8 CHARACTERS, BUT 3 MORE!!!!!
I can't wait for them to be playable and have a full squad of Sams
i think the last sam is the strongest haha
@@f41rly Interesting fact: That was Sam old concept art
@@ProfessorNexus i dont really like her green outfit though haha
I don’t know if there are any other SAMs alive, probably firefly is the last
@@Sared-gr2nl What’s the point of making and introducing this character designs when your not even gonna make them playable
Firefly's hairband has more character development than Robin 😂
2:44 Well mina they're Genetically engineered super soldiers so of course they'll all look alike. Way easier to create many of the same type of soldier than to give them individual features. The small different features you see is what they choose to do for themselves to add to their individuality like the glasses and hair pins on the one girl or Firefly putting on the ribbon and hair band.
Well technically they are most likely all dead minus firefly. Cuz the glamoth planar ornament set. Plus their queen made most of the Sam pilots look like the queen, and she basically just controls them all. Maybe we might get a survivor of glamoth and hopefully more Sam characters to have on our team. But most likely not possible and most likely everyone from glamoth minus Sam are gone forever and dead. I do wish I could e6s5 firefly but I think at most I can e0s0 maybe s1 if I’m lucky but I only have enough to full pity, but also gotta hope I win the 50/50 unless someone wanna help me get her or they get me e6 firefly but that’s hella unlikely
Btw in kafkas story 5 it tells us how elllio recruited her the guy he sended for recruition had a high chance of dying and the only way he would survive was kafka gettibg distracted for a second it was so cool to read
We'll get to see them in the future... right 😞?
Hate to break it to ya but there’s a 90% chance most if not all of them are dead….
@@dopeydoughnut6334 hate to break it to ya but this trailer if it's not foreshadowing all of them about to die in the animated short might be foreshadowing firefly's real death and the search for her companions once she's gone.
no, Firefly is the only supervivor.... and its not a joke
The last dude is Elio
Firefly has been mentioned to be the last Iron Calvary Knight, the rest are long gone thousands of years before the game even takes place.
new yt update from this channel will be
"i pulled for e6 s5 firefly ft firefly va"
Man... Firefly's skirt does not do her any justice if you catch my drift.
I think he meant she got no ass
@@Mrbluefire95 And? That... that doesn't change the fact that the pilot suit looks better
It looks like Mina may have missed the fact that all of Iron Cavalry are a mass produced Bio Weapon clones (thats why they look so similar), and they all have entropy loss syndrome since they're designed to not live long after the war - they're just seen as an explandable cogs in war machine (similar to clones in Star Wars, for example). Thats even the namesake of Firefly unit - meant to burn until buring to ash in a short time
Firefly looks amazing in that oufit!
Mina... you better hope Sunday doesn't tell Robin you're potentially getting entangled with Firefly😂
3:30 The way she says "A Fyrefly Type-V Personal Escort Model... Very Nice" kinda reminds me of the American Psycho business card scene.
Mina "I'm not e6ing Firefly." Lol.
Firefly and her freinds are kinda dressed like Kiana at the beginning of honkai impact 3rd
i like how every reaction video at the end you can see youtube recommends "rondo" to mina
I’ve had a feeling since the special program when they mentioned that the Iron Calvary was genetically modified that they were clones or at least something very similar clones, and this trailer seemingly confirmed that.
The glasses girl sounds like that one Tiktok tts speech
5:55: THANK YOU MINA
Was as anxious as the time Himeko left the train ( ᗜ‸ᗜ )
It's firefly your honor, because living for the pain and the suffering of life, means you are always living in the best part of reality.
6:48 oh lol. We have the same thought about how she joined the Stellaron Hunter .
Mina computer: bro I think you were going to bed and I was getting a break
firefly is number 1 and e2 is my goal, already watched the trailer 4 times
its so good
Whenever I wanna look into my mirror of simpage Mina is always there
4:00 I mean technically... lmao.
i think its a tough fight between firefly and robin for the most popular female character rn
have you notice at the end of trailer that the 4th person is Star Rail’s Kiana?! her suit resembles to that of Kiana’s first get up from HI3
For elaboration, lore wise Firefly was genetically modified to be a “war machine” which is why in 2.1 SAM/Firefly said that they cant dream because that was taken away from through the modification and it’s also why she has Entrophy Loss Syndrome as do all the other Firefly’s…all “Firefly’s” look the same because of this modification, and also they were all meant to die after the war on their planet was over.
All the SAM's are basically clones thats why they look similar. Firefly's illness is caused by the stellaron hunters messing with her genetic code so she doesnt have to follow orders anymore.
Stellaron hunter interactions and back stories are definitely something I want to see more of
Acheron is my favorite character, but just because i love Raiden Mei in each universe Game ... After she i think it's Firefly xD
“No one dies” yet. We still have an animated short coming out soon. Tbh, they are probably dead by that time. SADGE :(
All of the Iron Calvery are clones grown fo operate mechs, that's why each look so similar. None share memories, all share the same type of body.
Mina truly is speed (I literally just watched the trailer and then here she is)
"The saviors that we didn't deserve, but that we need so much" ;D But it is quite possible that something bad happened to them, because the Firefly is now alone
What a dream like chance to meet all them SAMs
imagine MC propagation path we got our own SAM
Firefly is quite literally HSR Master Chief
• Genetically modified super soldier, such modifications made without consent
• Has served in an army their whole life, defying regulations but getting away with it
• Experienced and respected even among others like her
• One of the last of their generation
• VERY dangerous if you give them a reason to be; seen by their enemies to be a ruthless and violent killer / 'Demon'
• Futuristic cyborg mech suit that supports many of their vital functions after the modifications were made
The SAM's are all genetically modified/test tube super soldiers. So silver hair could be a common Glamoth feature, or something caused by the gene mods.
My heart wants a full SAM/Iron Calvary team
My wallet/bank fears the day that becomes reality
GUYS ALIEN STAGE IN THE GALLERY OF VIDEOS- I CAN'T
MUST. PROTECC. THEM. ALL.
It’s Sparkle cause she is perfect and needs no fixing
Sparkle is my fav but firefly :
If i recall from the lore, Glamoth lost the war against the Swarm so it's very doubtful that these characters other than Firefly survived. It's possible but usually in lore videos like these the outcome is mostly dire.
The last one, the Personal Escort Model seems still survive. The model is to good to be wasted. I believe she will appear in ver 3.0 upward
not exactly it is pretty normal to find other survivors when the character think he is the last one, it is almost cliche actually hahahah like a rival or villain that will turn side later (since firefly isn't the main character it can be only a person she knows), not sure if it will happen here though
@@diegovinicius6100 the emphasis on the last girl does kind of make me think she's important. It reminded me of Jinglui in the General's trailer that she became important characters.
@@izumolee6714 yeah i also felt that, but like others said her illness seens to be in a worse stage so i don't know
No they didn't lose the war, they win. It just that after the war there power got weaker and IPC take over kill then
A small detail, when they are talking, there's always one SAM remain armed just in case.
we are getting an animated short soon, death probably saved for that...
I noticed when they first exit the armor they look normal, but near the end of the video you can see entropy loss syndrome causing those cracks on their faces. They can’t even stay out of the armor all that long.
Argenti must love Glamoth soldiers
Time to save pulls for all SAM we get in the future, I NEED THEM ALL!
6:36 Alright everyone, who's gonna tell her
There is also an "interview" with her on the hoyolab thing, where she answers some things
Also, E2s1.
I absolutely love this Myriad. Normally they all look the same because they're all based around the DNA of Glamoth's queen, Titania (who can also psychically control them).
I'm going for E2 for Firefly, the immediate action after killing or breaking looks so good (also after E1, skill doesn't cost SP if you activate her Complete Combustion state)
I KNEW I COULD COUNT ON MINA TO DELIVER AT ONE IN THE GODDAMN MORNING AKSJKJDFKJSHDF
"Firefly, my life is like a fuse ever burning till it runs out, and i cease to exist."
Mina: awwww, nobody died!!! Aww, im so happy!!
“I’m surprised no one died”
I’m expecting that to be seen in the next thing considering what happens to Glammoth ;-;
