This.
Why waste time replacing Ike with someone like Priam? That would most likely just piss off people.
At least I can
kind of understand the mentality of Chrom getting his moveset (even though it would look incredibly awkward, given how much lighter his sword looks compared to Ike's Ragnell) since he's the main character of Awakening, but replacing him with Priam seems absolutely pointless.
