Omg her passive is so cool and I love how high she jumps after her sprint, although in combat it probably isn't the most efficient. Same with the spinning animation
@@queeenie yes. The high jump is there because of the passive skill - when an enemy is below 30% HP, they will be marked when she ice-sprint near them and when she leaps out of her sprint, she will slash through them, and the slash is counted as a Charged Attack. Since the sprint-slash is removed, they didn't need to make her jump that high after the ice-sprint.
They should've kept the spinning gesture in her E it looks so elegant but I can't blame them maybe they removed it because it was making the transition slow Edit: goofy ahh addicted genshin degens arguing under this comment. “ B-b-but it w-wont make it slower, based from calculations 🤓 ”
1:08 was too cool they removed it. Like how they slowed down Xiao's plunge. Also honestly the cbt one was a lot fancier. But the release was more focused on combat practicality so they removed the excess details
If I recall correctly, the removal of the jumping animation in the alternate sprint had also been implemented to Mona's own alternate sprint because according to Hoyo, it would make for a smoother combat.
@@satrunseas It wasn’t a garuanteed kill it just did an amount of damage, I think it was removed more because it either would’ve made combat clunkier or because of how constellations/ talents had a different system in CBT 1 that better accommodated it but didn’t really fit in with our modern system
@@satrunseas nah it's not that op(that slash count as her charge atk) but i think it's just coz it's not suit genshin's playstyle (i would say it looks like honkai attack animation more)
@@Definitely_Not_Ash_ yeah it doesn't suit genshin's style... And honestly, It's much better not to use it and just use that extra time for rotation of other characters.
Honestly there's a a few things I wish they stuck with for ayaka. Mostly the twirl. I don't see why not keep it? I also LOVE the ability she had in cbt (though..that could always be reused for someone else, who knows?). Also the high jump was kinda cool but I'm fine with that being absent
A lot of decisions were made to make her fit within the meta at the time of release. The player base was really into the combat and meta stuff way more than the Devs anticipated. So they had to adapt to a more efficient combat system
the spin on her old skill animation looked cool but i understand that if they made her spin very fast to keep the skill cast time lower it'll look really unnatural lol. also her old passive where she lunges after dashing is very cool, but i think they removed it because it takes too long to execute. maybe they should make it so that an ice clone of her will be summoned and will lunged after a short period, so that she can still do some basic attacks.
They are better aesthetically only. A big chunk of the playerbase care about the DMG and those animations were not ideal for them. Too long animations and way too much uncertainty in her burst
They should’ve kept the passive but a little change, normally her coming out of sprint is normal like what we have now but if an enemy is marked then she jumps high to activate the passive
aww i always wanted ayaka to have that slash move that have her spin retained. Im always a sucker for elegant royalty females doing badass mercenary slashes and not just being all elegant and noble.
@@beratbayram she’s not an elegant princess, she’s the daughter of a clan. Of course she’s described as beautiful and graceful but it doesn’t mean she can’t have badass powers. Just saying she’s still a cryo samurai, still one of the coolest titles ever
@@Haelinzzi yes, you are right but her vibe is more on the princess side also her whole gameplay design is based on fast and multiple strikes while also being elegant. Her signature move, the charge attack is multiple slashes so fast you cant actually the each of them. Her E is more like a dance than an attack, hence the elegancy. Her burst is multiple super fast cryo slashes (with a hand fan hence the elegance), not one big nuke. If it was like a jump then like a keqing burst, I would be OK with that but that one slash is not fast nor multiple nor elegant.
The biggest change from beta to final release was the removal of her panties and changing them to white shorts or bloomers. Honestly, the biggest letdown mihoyo has down.
I think they could have left this attack when u come out of sprint and attacks while jump doing an ice dash to the enemy like cynos attack,would be very nice
Late answer but: the skill was pretty but also almost completely useless since it only triggered on enemies at 30% or below HP. At that point you're better off using skills or NAs to finish off mobs to regen energy for either the next wave or next floor.
CBT1: Ayaka's animation and Element Skill reminds me of Da Qiao from Dynasty Warriors And Ayaka's Burst reminds me of Lady Hayakawa's burst from Samurai Warriors4
That passive skill would literally ne so cool on Ayaka, i love everything about her in CBT 1... Wished they kept the twirl and the strike from the charged attack 😢
Ayaka is such the oldest character created than the Traveler the main protagonist. But i cant realize Mihoyo can hold her release until 1 year passed (inazuma launching).
1:06 why the hell did they remove that one? That looks so cool. Probably because it was op or to make a balance in the game? Hope this will be reused in the future.
everyone saying they shouldve kept the long animation but honestly if they did then ayaka would be clunky as hell. yae miko's main issue is how long it take to summon her pillars and how she's vulnerable in the process
i actually think the E skill spin looks really messy, looks like she glitched mid-turn and it's not realistic. i prefer it how it is now, it's so much cleaner

It would be efficient if the passive was still there! But itll made her op so they removed it and probably use it to other characters!
I thought that she jumped high in preparation for her idle (the stinger attack)?
@@queeenie yes. The high jump is there because of the passive skill - when an enemy is below 30% HP, they will be marked when she ice-sprint near them and when she leaps out of her sprint, she will slash through them, and the slash is counted as a Charged Attack.
Since the sprint-slash is removed, they didn't need to make her jump that high after the ice-sprint.
my guess is the design way to say she jumps out her spring, but probably people said its already implied with this dash
i think it was like an instant one shot from what i heard months ago
i know i'm late but i think her cbt1 elemental skill was prettier
Yeah but it’s Kinda slow
yes but it's not practical in abyss
Its not always about the the abyss
@@oryxisatthefront8338 looks a bit fast unless ur off defense
@@oryxisatthefront8338 well you can easily skip animation by dashing
her spinning was so cool, and i def think 1:07 will be used on another character
Probably not as a passive though.
yeah pardofelis
i remember the early ayato leaks saying that he would use plunging attacks. Its def coming on another character
Cyno
mf predicted it
That passive was op af
Now is c6
Yeah fr
It looks like APHO mei's charge atk
400% is cracked
absolutely not
They should've kept the spinning gesture in her E it looks so elegant but I can't blame them maybe they removed it because it was making the transition slow
Edit: goofy ahh addicted genshin degens arguing under this comment. “ B-b-but it w-wont make it slower, based from calculations 🤓 ”
Man. Yes, it looks so much better but you do have to keep gameplay in mind!
Basically you're asking ayaka to be like yae :')
I dont care if its slow or not, if its pretty, Primos will be spent
@@user-pl4of2os3n this
Yess, atleast make her hold e spinning 😭😭
1:08 was too cool they removed it. Like how they slowed down Xiao's plunge.

They could leave this type of elemental skill, let's say using an elemental skill through a sprint form.
Xiao is 💩
@@Luv_Ayaka8 Xiao is awesome wdym
@@Luv_Ayaka8you just can't let others have fun, huh? it's always meta
Tbh I wish that they kept her spinning animation. So hopefully even if they won’t give it back to Ayaka, maybe another character could use that
I would love that on a Natlan character
@@qTopaz well well well my friend
If I recall correctly, the removal of the jumping animation in the alternate sprint had also been implemented to Mona's own alternate sprint because according to Hoyo, it would make for a smoother combat.
And they're goddamn right
The whole community was asking for it. Mona was clunky to use before the fix.
@@RKNancy clunky but satisfying
We need that op passive back for a new sword or polearm character that is focused on utilizing it, that atk looks cool af
I feel some things are better kept rather than removing. Like the spin in the E skill or the removed passive talent
i feel like the passive talent would have made her too op
@@satrunseas It wasn’t a garuanteed kill it just did an amount of damage, I think it was removed more because it either would’ve made combat clunkier or because of how constellations/ talents had a different system in CBT 1 that better accommodated it but didn’t really fit in with our modern system
the spinning is understandable bcoz of the time efficient, but the passive talent+high jump.. i wish they keep it
@@satrunseas nah it's not that op(that slash count as her charge atk) but i think it's just coz it's not suit genshin's playstyle (i would say it looks like honkai attack animation more)
@@Definitely_Not_Ash_ yeah it doesn't suit genshin's style... And honestly, It's much better not to use it and just use that extra time for rotation of other characters.
3 years later I'm still so mad they removed that passive
Honestly there's a a few things I wish they stuck with for ayaka. Mostly the twirl. I don't see why not keep it? I also LOVE the ability she had in cbt (though..that could always be reused for someone else, who knows?). Also the high jump was kinda cool but I'm fine with that being absent
Its because the twirl will make her element skill very slow like she would take more time to do her elemental skill
At least if I saw right they still used the animation when she danced in the character quest
A lot of decisions were made to make her fit within the meta at the time of release. The player base was really into the combat and meta stuff way more than the Devs anticipated. So they had to adapt to a more efficient combat system
yeah a lot of ayakamains were depressed when her leaks were coming out cus they removed so much cool shit and made her burst oriented
I love her CBT elemental skill
That slash she could do after popping out of the ground was badass
Ayaka’s little spin in her elemental skill was so cute, they shouldve kept it :(
As an ayaka main we need the part where she goes to the air and atacks.
the spin on her old skill animation looked cool but i understand that if they made her spin very fast to keep the skill cast time lower it'll look really unnatural lol.
also her old passive where she lunges after dashing is very cool, but i think they removed it because it takes too long to execute. maybe they should make it so that an ice clone of her will be summoned and will lunged after a short period, so that she can still do some basic attacks.
Her pose in the Artifact menu looks so cute, like a kid desperately wishing for something so badly.
Who's idea was it to remove that pose? T-T
That was me wishing for Ayaka
wtf that passive looks so cool
0:17 I TOUGHT U SAID SOMETHING ELSE- 😭🤚
AHBXHBHBFHBJDGJNADGJNADJNGADJNGA
Lol black people jokes
Her old ult, elemental skill and sprint were better also they should’ve kept the passive
They are better aesthetically only. A big chunk of the playerbase care about the DMG and those animations were not ideal for them. Too long animations and way too much uncertainty in her burst
@@newbie4789 yeahh - if they did keep those people would be trying to figure out animation cancels to bypass 'em 💀
the passive skill for her sprint as well as the spinning on her E are both really cool i wish they kept at least the spin
Bro that passive skill that attacks after leaving the alternate sprint is awesome
I wish they kept the elemental skill :(
0:40 so pretty
They should’ve kept the passive but a little change, normally her coming out of sprint is normal like what we have now but if an enemy is marked then she jumps high to activate the passive
That CBT Jump after Alt Dash is so OP it crushes most of attacks from Hilichurl to Big Human/Mitachurl type
damn, that spinning gesture shouldnt have been removed... :( that was so sick....
Her Passive animation was so elegant 🔥
Cbt ayaka had pantsu literally pantsu. I want that back.
"pantsu" 🤓 please grow up
@@thiaraxoxo746 real asf
short pants was the greatest nerf on her.
Fr 😭😭😭😭
nah yall are just pron addicts
Ah yes, one of the biggest genshin nerf:
Ayaka pantsu.
Also, her 3 burst tornadoes were actually C6 in the CBT, even in the beta before 2.0 released. But they changed it to C2
aww i always wanted ayaka to have that slash move that have her spin retained. Im always a sucker for elegant royalty females doing badass mercenary slashes and not just being all elegant and noble.
the spin in her elemental skill is so cute 😭
The sword sheathing of her last normal attack in cbt1 looks so good bruh
Hoyoverse removed the elemental skill spin because apparently it would take too long, but then they continue to ignore Lisa’s elemental skill. 💀
i love more the spiining skill but time wise the latest animation is better
I love the passive omg im so sad it got removed it would prolly be op
The passive is the reason I wanted her so I was super disappointed.
That passive would've been badass, it's a shame they remove it. It was giving honkai vibes
Thats exactly why they removed it! She is an elegant princess not a super cool ninja or honkai valkriye
@@beratbayram she’s not an elegant princess, she’s the daughter of a clan. Of course she’s described as beautiful and graceful but it doesn’t mean she can’t have badass powers. Just saying she’s still a cryo samurai, still one of the coolest titles ever

@@beratbayram it is though? It gives of shinobu kocho when she does her air jump which is actually elegant and graceful.
@@beratbayram geez y’all overuse the hell of that word lmao
Her passive before release was the reason I wanted her, still a great unit
I think her cbt1 elemental burst looks more epic. though the official release looks neater.
Yeah, it was like one long Judgement Cut.
The biggest change from beta to final release was the removal of her panties and changing them to white shorts or bloomers. Honestly, the biggest letdown mihoyo has down.
She seemed so agile and graceful in the old version. But i suppose we must sacrifice form for gameplay
Man i hope another character makes use of that passive skill. Id pull in a heartbeat.
all im sad is no pantsu, if genshin weren't this popular they would've kept it
i do miss the execution passive, it reminded me of Weiss from RWBY and made me want her WAY more
I really wish characters had cooler passives cause that Ayaka passive looks to cool
what is the name of this remix on Ayaka's theme?
The only one thing i want Hyv to bring back from CBT1 is her Pantsu
I think it would've been cool if they added the CBT-1 passive but it could've also been a constellation
Idk CBT somehow has another meaning engraved in my mind...
I think they could have left this attack when u come out of sprint and attacks while jump doing an ice dash to the enemy like cynos attack,would be very nice
0:41 CBT look cool tho' with this gestures
Her E skill spinning move takes longer than the official one, you could get your self wide opened. Man they should’ve kept the dash attack
They shoulda kept the passive cus it's epic asf but like leave a cooldown on it so like you could only use it maybe once per rotation
I love her pantsu i hope they keep it on official release
Only true Ayaka mains remember Ayaka pantsu
1:06 NOOO THATS LITERALLY SO COOL WHY DID THEY REMOVE ITTT
She also used to have little butterflies after her sprint which I thought was so cute
01:06 omg that skill looks so good on Ayaka why did they remove it
Late answer but: the skill was pretty but also almost completely useless since it only triggered on enemies at 30% or below HP. At that point you're better off using skills or NAs to finish off mobs to regen energy for either the next wave or next floor.
@@netuser3 that kind of finishing move is a must for me.
Amatsutsumi Kunitsutsumi Chinsi was so cool, i hope they reuse the idea on another character
Imagine, Anemo traveler ult could have been able to stop like Ayaka
My perverted ass took way longer than I would like to admit to realize I was thinking of the wrong CBT.
CBT1: Ayaka's animation and Element Skill reminds me of Da Qiao from Dynasty Warriors
And Ayaka's Burst reminds me of Lady Hayakawa's burst from Samurai Warriors4
Her artifact menu and the skill were so beautiful:(
The only bad part is just her not being able to spin when using her E, it would look cooler if she did.
The sprinting under the enemy passive is BADASS
iirc her sprint constantly apply cryo in cbt1 making ice bridging easier. i guess it'll be to broken against electro/hydro lector's shield
That Passive is sick tho
That passive skill would literally ne so cool on Ayaka, i love everything about her in CBT 1... Wished they kept the twirl and the strike from the charged attack 😢
i sometimes forget Ayaka was the first inazuman to be in genshins beta testing phase
Ayaka is such the oldest character created than the Traveler the main protagonist.
But i cant realize Mihoyo can hold her release until 1 year passed (inazuma launching).
CBT skill animation is more beautiful but i guess too long? Also I wish they kept the jump attack passive even though it seems clunky to use tbh
I think of something different when I hear CBT
I liked her spinning gesture
It looked so pretty
See what they did to my ayaka...the executive move the pants they took everything from me
Praying this is used for her skin!
You didn't show us how ayaka looks under her skirt in cbt1
Heyy lets we guys write it to survey for bringing back that cool passive!!!
To those who still clinging to the old kit 1 year after... They really can't move on with their life huh?
Oh god the artifact gesture was precious
They biggest nerf was the pants
actually the biggest nerf was her C6 from op to meh
no
Amatsutsumi Kunitsutsumi Chinshi skill should've stayed.
Holy cow that was SO COOL!
(Not a pun)
Amatsutsumi Kunitsutsumi Chinshi??
What is that supposed to mean
Wow if only other elemenal bursts that shoots out a turret of application also laches onto enemies, cough cough, Hydro and Anemo Traveler
they shouldv keep her sprint when she jumps high also at the boss when she did the plunge attack and at her elemental skill
Wait u mean she wasnt wearing the short pants in the cbt 😭
Nope, she was using panties in CBT
the passive skill looks so cool, sadly they removed it :(
1:06 why the hell did they remove that one? That looks so cool. Probably because it was op or to make a balance in the game? Hope this will be reused in the future.
cbt ayaka burst looks like vergils
Current Ayaka burst looks also like DMC 5 Vergil’s spamming judgement cut
everyone saying they shouldve kept the long animation but honestly if they did then ayaka would be clunky as hell. yae miko's main issue is how long it take to summon her pillars and how she's vulnerable in the process
ayaka is so cute, her quest is my favourite!!!
I hope they didn't removed that plunge atk after she sprint that looks so sick.
her cbt passive felt like smth straight from honkai impact
I love her skill gesture in CBT-1. Why didn't mihoyo keep it still in official?
im glad they didn't keep the cbt 1 elemental skill, that plunging attacks looks so annoying
i actually think the E skill spin looks really messy, looks like she glitched mid-turn and it's not realistic. i prefer it how it is now, it's so much cleaner
Man that C6 Yamato Helm Breaker is so awsome, why would the delete it
I still salty about that jump attack,why tf mihoyo erase it? Wtf...
