Start with decisions, not tier lists

Fate Trigger is still best covered with cautious pre-launch language. Beginners should learn the decisions that survive balance changes: when to cross a bridge, which role protects the squad, why mid-range weapons teach faster, and when a won fight becomes bait for a third party.

Before installingVerify the current Steam release window, avoid key sellers, and prepare storage from official store information.
First sessionUse one Awakener role, one flexible weapon range, and one repeatable low-contest route.
First fightsTrade from mid-range, keep an exit named, and avoid chasing knocks across exposed gaps.
After each matchWrite down the route failure: no exit, late bridge, split squad, bad high ground, or overlong looting.
After launchReplace pre-launch role labels with official character names, patch data, and tested map screenshots.
