Yeah, but slightly worse because her 4th weapon is terrible, so she can't Token-chain with it, whereas Zhou Yu totally can. You can consider her a worse version of Xu Huang, who's at the lower end of high tier. Yue Ying would then be right in the middle of mid tier, or maybe slightly in the upper end.
The default choice for safe clear, shit 1v1. Well played! You can consider incorporating more of her JC and C5 when it comes to 1v1 options, same applies with Xu Huang; latter has a stronger JC because general AI doesn't know how to react to it.
I think Xu Huang's JC is just unblockable rather than AI not knowing how to deal with it. I remember dying to it once, when I thought I could block the damn thing 🤣. I can experiment more with her C5. I have had some massive success with Zhen Ji's C5 when recording her pressure test (upcoming later today), so I've learn a bit more about these whirlwind juggling C5. But I'm generally extremely skeptical of the "air grab" JCs like Zhou Tai's and Cao Pi's, because I feel like in DW5, you're never alone enough for a true 1v1 like in DW4, and if even 2 or 3 peons are waiting where I land, I feel like I'll be juggled. Yue Ying's JC seems slightly better, but is still technically an air grab.
If her 4th weapon was better, there's a real chance she could've been promoted, for sure. But I think her maximum potential, with a theoretical better 4th weapon, is capped at the lower end of high-tier. Even if she had longer periods of Rage, Yue Ying still faces two main problems: (1) Her default juggling musou's damage is quite low, and (2) her freezing attempts with C6 takes waaay too long to be reliable as a musou damage booster during Rage. With a better 4th weapon that gives her more Rage time, she would become one of the safest characters in the entire game, but still relatively lower-damage than most of the other characters in high tier.

Finally! I've been waiting for like 2 months 😆
What's your verdict of her tier-list placement though? Around the same place as Zhou Yu?
