I THINK they want to make sure new players have a chance to get him as older players might have stopped playing or idk this is just speculation. But Hoyo has those numbers. They know who owns Bennett and who doesn't and how many new players there are etc.
The cryo curse, at least for newer 4 star cryo characters. Diona (1st phase) and Rosaria (2nd phase) are present in the banners. Too bad cuz I was hoping she would be here
I've played since beginning, and for me it's more like "Mavuika/Citlali, 5 starglitter (Kachina), 5 Starglitter (Bennet) and potentially my dead-last character I'd want to get Cons for", lol. Already got Kachina C6 since I went hard for Mualani.
Jesus...ever missing Bennett? Just wait a banner. Half the roster is rotting in a ditch somewhere near Shanghai, while they cram this kid down our throats till we puke.
@@giorgostrim3709still, some people actually need themselves a Charlotte or they really like her, but Hoyo literally haven’t given her a banner since 4.2
As someone who wants to C6 Kaeya (I currently have C4, well, almost 4 years in the game and 2 constellations from the shop) I'm honestly kinda happy that they're running characters I have C6 of fairly often. Makes getting starglitter a lot easier
the character’s that are in paimon’s shop rotation should not run more than once a year, this is literally ridiculous im still waiting for a SINGLE charlotte con or lynette
Seriously complain about the four star situation in their feedback box and surveys. Do it at least once a month. It's only going to get much much worse as the (subjective) trash to treasure ratio widens even further. Imagine living in a world where there's 100 four stars, but you only want three of them. That's the default world we're gonna get.
I have a C0 Chevreuse which I also hoped to make some progress with. I am also in rage town. Make sure to complain about the four star situation constantly in their surveys and feedback box. It might cost them only $0.01, but it's something. Just make it part of your weekly routine, copy and paste and share the misery with a poor analytics guy.
Same, Mika is the only 4 star I don't have smh. All I want is him, but alas, Bennett and Xiangling are always up my ass with each banner that comes out 🗿
I mean in the context of revealing both first half and 2nd half in the same day they usually give it some time in between or a few days something like that not the same day I'd remember that otherwise Been playing since patch 1.3
@@CrytecNBOMB nah it's always been at the same time that they release both phase 1 and 2 banners, I always assumed it's because they'd be out the office on holiday been on GI since 1.0
Phase 1 always gets revealed 2-3 days before the new update and phase 2 ALWAYS gets revealed by the last 2-3 days of phase 1 With the exception of lantern rite where they reveal both phases 2-3 days before the new patch
@@1nfamousprince I get what you're saying but even last year it wasn't on the same exact day but close to the same time frame yes and yes I know they reveal both banners that's all I'm saying They would reveal both banners before the lantern rite patch during the last week before the next version release
HoyoClowns didn’t add Charlotte to the banner, that’s crazy. In 4.2 i literally somehow got Furina, but didn’t get Charlotte. Now i’m crying about that for over a year, augh 😭
@@ziancarvenreynoso9191Might be, but might not. I’m pretty sure that Charlotte has been in the 4.2 banners only because it was the patch she came out, and it has nothing to do with their synergy or smth
@@Catos23 Charlotte is a team healer like Jean so she does work well for Furina's fanfare. I finally used her a this patch and I was pleasantly surprised and I want constellations. I hope she arrives to you soon.
@@Catos23 She's one of the first synergies with Furina, wdym? The first team I made with Furina was Neuv-Furina-Kazuha-Charlotte, and it absolutely demolished content, especially against aoe scenarios.
fair request from a collectionist standpoint, but at least Bennett is an usable nd good unit core of 70% of the carries in the game if not more, Charlotte in the other hand dont have BiS teams, I appreciate more Bennett reruns for new players than any other unit in a banner, followed by Fischl and Chevreuse
Saying the second half is a bit more hype is an understatement. Phase 1 4 stars are basically eating a bag of dog shit. Whereas phase 2 is a wagyuu steak.
nah it depends on the players for me phase 1 is god send to me even the weapon banner is great for me than the phase 2 since I have C0 bennett and Diona can be an alternative for Citlali especially if I get her C6 and Kachina is also great for me since I wanted to Try Dps Plunge Xilonen consist of Xilonen, Furina, Xianyun, and Kachina, Kachina C4 and C6 is great since C4 she can buff def of the active character when inside her burst and her C6 just make her a niche/okay sub dps role so yea it just depends on the players account
Thank you, it does feel like dog shit. I was really hoping for some Chevreuse. They're not idiots, they know they're putting way more value of the four stars into the re-run banners.
I understand putting chevreuse on arle-clorinde banner Hell even Lan Yan BC they always do this, put new four star on rerun character banner But they could've at least given us rosaria instead of diona for mavuika. Diona isn't even a citlali consolation prize, BC noone is pulling citlali for shield, they are pulling her for res shred Its nice they are trying to accommodate newer players but jfc just stop at this point it's annoying as hell
@@everythingisterrible8862 I mean Chev is a great support for both Arle and Clorinde so putting them in 2nd phase actually benefits more to the players who want to all-in the 2nd phase. The 4* in the first phase is really tailored for newer players huh. Most veterans already have c6 Bennett and Diona.
@@had-sd4hs wdym? Diona is better in phase 1 since if you get her to C6 diona will give the active character a 200 EM buff while C6 Rosaria is just extra dmg for physical
Don't complain here, complain in their feedback channels. And maybe nag other people to do the same. Nothing will change if we don't cost them even a single $0.01.
Genshin content is crazy, I've not watched a video like this in like a year and I decided to click on this and I feel like NOTHING was said through the 10 minute runtime, it's like the RUclips video equivalent of small talk "Yes it's good yes yes and it's good so it's good yes and also good good yes"
Yeah, this video is way too long for the message, he usually says more interesting things lmao. But I just skim through it and hear if he says good or not recommended while reading comments
honestly feeling pretty good about skipping everyone since I got Kinich. Mauv is not disppointing and I haven't felt like I have been missing out with not having Xilonen like people were making it out to be. Though not seeing Xianyun feels bad, I was really hoping to get her this lanturn rite.
Xilonen is an amazing universal buff (except anemo and dendro, both of which have amazing supports for their own elememts) You wouldn’t feel like you’re missing out if you play dendro as dendro is pretty cracked with Nahida, Kuki and a few others. But Xilonen on Arlecchino, Hu Tao, Neuvi, Chiori, many many characters see a very noticeable bump in damage, and that jump gets larger at c2.
@@sadgurlpodcast___7692 I do play teams she would improve, but she would have to replace petra Zhongli or Kazuha in them which for the most part which is only a slight improvement dps wise. I havent been team building and thought, damn I wish I had Xilonen, like I did when I didn't get Furina or Xianyun on their first banners. Not calling her bad, but she is probably the most replacable top tier character for me. Also the teams she would improve are my already busted af teams that clear with an stuipid amount of time to spare. Meanwhile my Kinich and Wrio teams def need a more comfy option than my Xiangling because rn I hate playing them because of how annoying playing around Xianglings energy costs are.
yeah the weapon banner is indeed good for the rare diluc main. and citlali is also going to be a great teammate for diluc melt. citlali weapon isn't 100% needed but its not a waste to get either
I was conflicted on whether I should pull for Citlali for my Gaming depending on the 4 stars they have, and thank the gods this’ll help me save my wishes for 5.4.
I’m considering skipping first half now. Sitting on C6 Bennett and Diona, and C5 Kachina. Possibly only try until my 50/50, win or lose will be full stop.
Eh the 4 stars hardly matter if that’s your issue. A banner’s worth is tied to the 5 star not the 4 stars as you’ll get plenty of copies of them in time no matter what.
@@TerraTheWisethats false when you consider newer 4*s like chevruse. i have c1 chev despite pulling on both her banners, amounting to 200+ pulls in total. especially worse because they rerun with the same 5*s, making it little to impossible to get them over time unless u go for constellations, which is highly unlikely for f2p.
Chasca/Ororon banner exist. The 4* tall electro male literally rarer pull than 5* and probably the example banner on people actually pull for 4* instead of 5*
Seriously, what's the deal with Mihoyo with Bennett? He always appears on the banners, which I want the most... I don't hate him, I just wanted a banner with characters that barely appear like Faruzan
These 4 stars are so awful that I don’t think I want Mavuika anymore. I thought the 4-stars on Xilonen’s banner were as bad as it could get, but I was wrong.
@ Well yeah. C6ing three of the most useless characters to get one Xilonen was pretty demoralizing. If I save all my wishes for Arle, I have a decent chance of getting C6 Chev, Lan Yan, and Rosaria, all of whom I would use often. I will never use Diona or Kachina.
@@nesaaliyah4821 Eh, Candace isn't the absolute worst. Modern standards with characters like Chevreuse who contribute massive damage just by breathing, and Cinder City set that adds +0.4 to a damage multiplier for not just one of your characters, but ALL of your characters because lol... yeah, she's lame in comparison. Still around Shenhe level even with her imaginary perfect partner (Mualani comes close) which is pretty bad.... but newbies with no better options could use her. Reactions make up a crazy portion of your damage when you can't farm and level artifacts yet..
Jokes on you 4* on Xilonen were my dreams come true banner (except Dori) 😂 And even after pulling c2 Xilonen i still haven't got Collei to c6... Life is unfair bs.
@@everythingisterrible8862 I don’t think it’s necessarily fair to blame Candace’s shortcomings on her age. After 4 years, Bennett still hasn’t been powercrept and Xianling is just now getting a substitute. However much use you could theoretically get out of Candace, Collei, Diona, Dori, or Kachina; in practice they’re useless outside the first few floors of the imaginarium theatre.
Not sure if I want to pull for Mavuika. I'm super excited about Clorinde though! I've also been waiting for Shenhe since Lantern Rite. I don't care how bad it is; I'm building an Ayaka freeze team.
Man I still dont have Charlotte are we getting chronicled wish for 4 stars too cause what is this? This is like what 6 banners of Bennett this year? It felt like he's been in every banner 😭
Honestly don't know why anyone is surprised. They've essentially told us that we'll never get a pyro support as good as Bennett by releasing Mavuika as another pyro DPS. Just like every pyro DPS before her, Bennett is an optimal support, especially for her donut play style. The state of the meta was *PAINFULLY* clear after her kit release. Bennett on this banner is hilariously just as generous as it is exhausting. Accepting Mavuika means accepting circle impact more than we ever have before. Get used to it folks lol
Hah, you think I will accept that? In your dreams, I benched Bennett long time ago because I fucking hate him and although I may lose some damage, I'm so much happier without his stupid circle.
I started playing on chascas bannerso this an amazing chance for me cause i didnt realize how good benet was till he was out of the starglitter shop. I got 1 50/50 saved up so im really hoping for mavuika
It's miHoYo's favorite 4-star Pyro Boy who doesn't almost missing a banner every year (ok for newbies but not for me who already owned a C6+ Benny a long time ago). Only Kachina from banner needing those cons while pulling for "going to Cryo Jail soon" Citlali.
Why is no one talking about Sacrificial Fragments for Citlali, it can accumulate 24 + 24 = 48 Nightsoul Points easily, plus with it being an EM catalyst
Your skill is just going to put a shield up. I think it only damages when you are over 50 Nightsoul. I could be wrong though but that's how I understand it. So probably not going to proc the effect on Sac Frag. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
I just tested sac frag, it triggers when you are next to enemies applying shield and you are below 50 nightsoul. If you are above 50, it triggers further away because of the AoE damage. Even when you are not near enemies, you most likely will have your burst energy high enough to not need to trigger the proc. And if you are running with xilonen (no fav necessary) it's even better. I run it with 150 ER and I have the burst every rotation. Overall it feels really good, you can run EM sands.
@@IshyMimic I noticed Citlali makes 5 Cryo particles, and that'll help another Cryo on the team for melt more than fav might. But yeah a really nice FTP option (I'm using Nahida lamp), especially for players that don't want to think too much about it.
This banner is helping me skip with 4 stars I already built :) The C4R1 Chasca I got with the primos I originally stockpiled for Mavuika can be my Pyro DPS for the Abyss’s Mavuika / Arle check.
Let me cook for a moment: Citlali + C6 Diona on Instructor Set (and if you have it, Elegy Bow) that’s 320/420 EM buff from Diona, cryo resonance, and a bit more Cryo application, don’t even have to build Diona for the shield since you also have Citlali’s which also benefits from the EM buff from Instructor
We're getting the Natlan finale at the start of the patch and Lantern Rite at around the middle (for the second phase). Hoyo has always coordinated the banners with the ongoing events and content in given patch.
Bennett & Kachina were literally just together on Mualani’s banner in 4.0! Like c’mon Hoyoverse-feature other 4*s! Kirara, Mika, Fremipoop, GaMing, Lynette, Charlotte!
@@AnayaKoshy and this is why developing thick skin is a must online. you’re seriously gonna make a big deal just because i said Fremipoop? you’re gonna get hurt because i was being “rude” to your pixelated idol. give me a break.
Despite how much I am excited about the whole 5.3 banner, can we talk about why 4 stars weapon are so repetitive? Like for example, where is Alley Hunter? Mouun's Moon?The Dockhand's Assistant? They are repeating those general weapons, which is appreciated, but so difficult for newer players to get different weapons...Like I have fav all series R5, and at least 2 sets of each already...
These banners are absolutely crazy for me (in a good way) every 4* has value for me in the teams I’ve been planning on building, nuke teams, overload teams, QOL teams, etc. I have the materials prefarmed for mavuika’s weapon but I might need to skip it and go for cons instead, my primo gem savings are so cooked :,(
@ I think for most people C6 makes the most sense with that pyro damage buff, especially with both Arlecchino and Mavuika wanting it to get the most from their damage
@@I.disagreeC6 Bennett enhances any Pyro damage teams and enables some Pyro on-field teams but breaks physical on-fielder, Chongyun normal attacking teams, some Ayaka teams, on-field Chiori, and C6 Lynette on-field. You can decide which you want more.
@@I.disagree unless you want to play niche teams, no meta will be affected negatively, it'll actually benefit in fact. He ruins some physical teams (that can easily run without him), some ayaka teams (not her BIS) and some other strange niche or meme teams. But, as I said, if you play actual meta teams he's good.
I've only really taken two proper breaks from the game. The first one, which is also the longest, is from 1.2 to 1.5 (rip first Lantern Rite and Festering Desire). The second one, only lasting 18 days, is just from last month. I have C6ed most of the 4 stars already, but that's actually good for me since I can continue pulling in the banners, lol.
Despite all the banner appearances in the last year, I still need Bennet Cons. I just leveled Diona for Imaginarium Theater. I have Kachina leveled for Imaginarium Theater, and she is useful simply by existing via the Natlan set and Geo technically reacting with most of the game. Oh, I have also never wished on weapon banner EVER, and despite playing for over a year, I have ZERO Favonius Lances. Sorry guys, I see this furst half as an absolute win on all fronts.
Four star situation.... complain to them in the survey box 60 times, then in the survey box for 10 kilometers. Every. Single. Day. No air conditioning.
ever since starting genshin in august these banners are the first ones where i don't have a single primogem to my name but i still feel like I'm going to get the characters anyway😅😅. Planning on pulling Mavuika, Childe and Citlali, I have 70 primos a sack of copium and a dream🤣🤣
It should be fine. Around an extra 120k damage from the melts. Not the most efficient use of slots; tons of aura application being unrealized and the damage amp reactions highly benefit from funneling buffs onto the trigger unit. If you really want your Ayaka to shine, you should hope for a new element that has a good reaction with Ice. They really like having money so such a thing is very possible.
I'm even a little tempted by the second half and I wasn't planning on pulling for either 5 stars. But I only have C0 Chevy, and none of Rosa or LanYan... Ahh, no. Can't be tempted by four stars....
@@amouramarie Get your 5-star from first half if you were gonna, and then build pity on the 2nd unless you *really* don't like the 5-stars. I know there's always the risk of getting an early 5-star, but I say its worth it for those 4-stars. Only 35.2% of 5-stars come before soft pity (calc'd from piamon moe) so if you're not on a guarantee, that's only 17.6% of winning a 50/50 on a character you don't want, if you wish all the way to 73, starting from 0 pity.
Guys I'm undecided between one of the next two, I was thinking of taking both but opting for citlali and then Arlecchino if I couldn't find mavuika. My most built characters are: venti, xiangling, xinghiu, bennet, fischlC6 BeidouC6, tartaglia, Ayaka very well, diluc and now cascha herself. What do you think? should I go for Mavuika or Citlali First? I also have a Wolf Gravestone ready 4 her
could probably work, but charging her burst will be a pain because Lyney uses charged attacks, not normal attacks I may as well use pyro traveller instead and save my primos
@@appletree13 Yeah, she's not gonna be good with a field hog. She's gotta have a tag team buddy built for tag teamin' during her downtime. Citlali is pretty solid with Lyn tho. Depends on how far her skill can hit, though... (Which is a problem with Mav and Trav, too. Or every turret character with short stubby arms.)
@@purplerainPRMauvika can't trigger scroll on Lyney teams because she needs to trigger the reaction to get scroll buff and you usually use an anemo or geo unit with Lyney as 4th slot for VV shred like Kazuha or scroll Xilonen or Zhongli petra, so Mav isn't triggering a reaction there nor proccing Scroll set in Lyney teams unless you play in overload with an electro applier that's faster than Mauvika's in a Chevreuse overload team, but you risk missing out on Lyney's A4 100% dmg bonus passive if the opponent has no pyro aura active (which is a massive dmg loss). It's an inherent general flaw of Chevreuse teams with Lyney that I found out while playing it & it probably works only with someone like Kujou Sara C2+ in a quickswappy playstyle due to Sara's weak and easily controllable electro application. On a side note, C6 Chevreuse's ability triggers even when you're not using a pyro+electro team so she can still buff your Lyney's pyro dmg without overload (I tried it and it works) so you could potentially run C6 Chevreuse even while putting units like Zhongli, Kazuha, Lanyan, Xilonen, etc. as the 4th slot Citlali unironically is better as a scroll set user for Lyney since Cryo doesn't remove pyro gauges as easily as hydro or electro for example and she provides a bit of shielding which is useful for Lyney.
She's actually good for lynei, instead of xiangling, because with xiangling, you want to stay close to the enemies for the pyronado to hit them, you can actually star afar with mavuika. And she'll deal comparable damage to xiangling, it's a confort pick
I'm saving for Mavuika but my favorite 4 stars are all in the second half 😭😭😭 I think i'll wait for the rerun and get arlecchino instead, i really want Lanyan C2 and Cheveruse, Rosa is one of my top 5 favorites too.
I'd recommend going for Mavuika and then just pulling on Arlecchino's banner (or Clorinde) for the 4*s, if you don't mind getting the featured 5* on those banners. Arlecchino is great, definitely, pulled her on her first banner
Four stars are so hard to get and with certain characters repeating 3xs a year, it's harder still. A word of caution, meta shifts in abyss are pretty intense when the archon appears (looks at current abyss) but if you don't care about that so much, 100% go for the second half. That's what I've always done and it's worked out great, but I'm a characters over meta person. I just end up using the time to have some absolutely broken artifacts while I've waited for the rerun good luck on your pulls
Be sure to complain in the feedback box and surveys about the four star situation once a month. They'll never change anything until at least their analytics guys are miserable.
That citlali's trailer is so good now I want pull for her. Is mavuika good with r5 serpent spine? i might just pull for citlali instead of mavuikas weapon.
ofc R5 serpent is almost comparable with any character's sig weapon is like 5-10% dmg apart from their Sig weapon, but ofc if you have the max stack of the R5 Serpent so you want a shielder on her
Yep it's good at max stacks with r5 it's around 15-10% damage loss but it's worth losing it for citlali she makes melt teams broken especially mauvika and like 25% better than furina paired with mauvika
I've been wanting a good catalyst EM stat stick for so long. I skipped Thousand Floating Dreams last time cuz I don't need another accidental copy of Homa lol. I think I'm gonna go for Citlali's. I do have Baizhu and c6 Yanfei and I plan to get Lan Yan, so I will be able to make full use it. Also, I wouldn't mind picking up a copy of Mavuika's and I need more copies of all the 4* weapons (except Lithic ofc). Please be kind weapon banner~ 🙏🙏🙏
Although I don't watch every video that you upload right away, I appreciate how often you keep to a schedule with your videos (or at least post consistently). I can always count on your channel to have some kind of video related to current happenings in Genshin relating to new characters/weapons and updated information. I don't know how much your work gets paid off, but just wanted you to know it speaks a lot about your work ethic.
welp, i have c6 diona and c6 bennett..................... guess ill get alot of resummons... (i have 420 summons for the pyro arcon) honestly......... the 4 stars are probably the worst thing i could ask for... this is just awful for me lol. at this point, mihoyo, please let us pick what 4 stars we want, cause this is so bad for long term players.
ohh, i didn't know what the title meant until reading this comment lol i can definitely see this as a problem, i have c6 bennett and multiple cons on diona, this is going to be great
Chevreuse would be a better unit for beginners. healing and buffing... but because its not limiting to only pyro and electro, that might hurt them, but still an amazing healer and buffer,... well okay bennett is just the best 4 star ever, yes,, im so pissed Chevreuse not on this banner tho... like why tf is diona here? just let us pick the 4 stars we want at this point.
@@Honed-Nah Bennett is a better unit for beginners. This basically one of the best banners for new players specially for a Mavuika banner. Even tho I hate the banner myself since I got Bennett and Diona at C6 already, This banner is a solid Mavuika team already for New players. Kachina for Cinder City, Bennett the best Attack scaling dps support and Diona a strong 4 star melt support or you can say a 4 star version of Citlali.
@@S3tsuna1 how many new players are going to get into genshin just cause of the pyro arcon tho...? i think ,,, to me anyways, its to hurt the older players who already have countless copys, cause mihoyo knew long term players really wanted charlet, and the fact they putted the 2 new 5 stars in the same banner is definitely intentional, cause both bennett and muskit girl is highly wanted by vet players, AND also really want the 5 stars so then they will pull everything for those two, and will probably be force to pay to get charlet... and because 4 stars have to pitty system, mihoyo is going to be screwing everyone,,,, besides new players.. nobody's happy, besides maybe arlo mains/wanters lol.(whales dont care they have everything c6'ed) man im so jelly for the ones that missed her the first time and are getting her now.... its so frustrating to me. but yes............... its good for the new players coming into the game. even tho this is frustrating as s**t for me.. i mean sure i can just skip, and wait for a better banner but that could legit take a full year... and mihoyo f**king knows what there doing.
You still need several patches to increase your arsenal. And Kachina is great for early and mid game, which is where new players are going to be still.
Be sure to complain in their feedback channels. The four star situation has been getting pretty ridiculous, and will only get worse with time. Could you imagine five years from now? We have new elements Lux, Umbra, etc added. Fresh new dark lord five star lady drops that can summon a giant evil kitty. And the four star character paired with her? Bennet, Diona, Sucrose. Oh..... joy....
@@shina1399 Ororon would have been so great with Mav+Chevreuse. Ah, our gods are wicked gods. But the drip is real and they gotta squeeze us for all they can.
He's available twice a year in the starglitter shop. That's 4 times you could have gotten him without wishing. This is also the 6th time he's been on a banner in two years.
Honestly these banners are so bad for long term players. Bennett rerunning every 3 banners is also absurd, like let bro rest a bit. Diona is just a useless character to most, Kachina is free and only an EM bot with 0 dmg so her cons do nothing. Meanwhile 2nd half is stacked beyond anything with a new very good 4*, chevreuse and rosaria who has cons worth getting but is obviously on the less desirable side but 2 out of 3 is better than 0 out of 3. Putting both new characters on phase 1 without extending banner duration is also scummy af. Its not a problem for me but others won't even get to use all of 5.3s primos to pull for mavuika or citlali. This would be a very bad trend going forward.
I have a suspicion (and this is just speculation) that there are more newer players than there are older players. Because hoyo has the numbers of ownership for each character. So they want newer players to have a chance to get Bennett. I know since the Xbox release my cousin started playing Genshin for the first time ever! So I THINK that might be the reason for the constant Bennett appearances. Maybe older players quit more? Idk! That's just speculation I've no idea
@@fuzyfuzfuz2I've been saying that Natlan is the new Mondstadt. They made massive new player QOL with Natlan's release and allowed players to skip from Liyue to Natlan. Natlan has been a much easier region to complete everything in than the past few regions. The power levels are adjusted up and there's a lot of Natlan exclusivity, which means old players are more incentivized to pull and new players can get caught up quicker. My theory is not that there are more new players than old; it's that they've been focusing most of Natlan (and the banners of course) to bringing in and catching up new players.
@@fuzyfuzfuz2 Bennett has always appeared 3 times a year, but that's a good point about Xbox. Genshin CCs aren't shy about talking about Bennet's importance, so someone doing a casual search is going to find that out ASAP. (Why doesn't this Bennett guy heal me all the way???) He makes those numbers get bigger, and that makes people happy. The amount of people who don't have/use Bennet might influence the amount of people who quit.
I mean... if you can keep her weapon infused then maybe... it's a good status stick for her but not even close to Redhorn. IMHO unless you want it for the drip wait for a Itto rerun and get his weapon instead.
Looking at the 4*s, if it wasn't for the fact that there's a chance Citlali won't rerun for years, I wouldn't touch the first phase...I don't use Kachina, and I don't want any more Diona or Benny (I've already got well over C6 for both of them). On the other hand, I want LanYan and more Chevreuse from the second phase... These banners are annoying me.
while it is true the Cryo is locked at Hoyo Basement but I have feeling they are now letting them see the light again 😅 since they stated/mention it on their 5.3 livestream that "Some characters are not getting their reruns" so I assumed is in their Radar as of now and there is a leak that in 5.4 wrio will come out hope that's true so I don't have to worry for Citlali not getting a rerun if I don't get her somehow 😢
hopefully i can finally get my c6 diona after 4 years. would have preferred if the 4 stars were swapped but hey the 4 stars are great i just personally dont need them. Not gonna stop me trying to pull for both of them though- god help me win both 50/50s...
I love how they put the pyro archon and Mavuika on the same banner
I see what you did there 😂
yea is so Diobolical Lmao 😂 without any special meaning just a marketing strat
Edit: oh I didn't read the whole comment Lmao, yea I get it HAHAHAH
Those who don't understand 😂
Even the pyro archon doesn't know he is the pyro archon 😂
The true pyro archon. Diona.
The way how charlotte could have been on that banner. Bennett is on every banner at this point LOL.. what is going on😭
I THINK they want to make sure new players have a chance to get him as older players might have stopped playing or idk this is just speculation. But Hoyo has those numbers. They know who owns Bennett and who doesn't and how many new players there are etc.
The cryo curse, at least for newer 4 star cryo characters. Diona (1st phase) and Rosaria (2nd phase) are present in the banners. Too bad cuz I was hoping she would be here
Already have diona C6 benet c5 kachina c4 rosaria C6 ceverous C6 😂😂 worst 4* banner atleast for me was waiting for Charlotte but this cryo curse..
Imagine if it was Charlotte, Chevreuse and Kachina. Would've been such a cracked banner.
Ew
Old players see the banner like this: Mavuika/Citlali, Kachina, 5 starglitter and 5 starglitter
I've played since beginning, and for me it's more like "Mavuika/Citlali, 5 starglitter (Kachina), 5 Starglitter (Bennet) and potentially my dead-last character I'd want to get Cons for", lol. Already got Kachina C6 since I went hard for Mualani.
I feel like I am called out.
That's me. And I'll probably pass on this banner completely.
like extra 20 pulls lol
Look I'm totally down for refund pulls XD
Jesus...ever missing Bennett? Just wait a banner. Half the roster is rotting in a ditch somewhere near Shanghai, while they cram this kid down our throats till we puke.
He normally gets ran every 6 cycles. It's stupid lol
There is no other attack buffer in the game. I expected Mavuika to be a Bennet replacement but i guess not.

Pulling both Mavuika and Citlali. Meanwhile having C6 Bennett and C6 Diona.
This is gonna be fun. Starglitter IMPACT!
Diluc is my favorite OG character, but I'm also pulling for Mavuika. So on the bench he will continue to sit 😢
As someone who wants to C6 Kaeya (I currently have C4, well, almost 4 years in the game and 2 constellations from the shop) I'm honestly kinda happy that they're running characters I have C6 of fairly often. Makes getting starglitter a lot easier
Yeah , just like almost every veteran 😂……😅..😩
If you want starglitter you'll get C6 Kachina, if you want C6 Kachina you'll just get starglitter, that's how this game works 😂
At this point they should let us select 3 four star characters out of 4-5 characters
Lithic Blade without any Liyue characters on banner 🗿

Lantern rite is just there so you are garunteed atleast 1.
sdjf I forgot about it's passive
the character’s that are in paimon’s shop rotation should not run more than once a year, this is literally ridiculous im still waiting for a SINGLE charlotte con or lynette
Seriously complain about the four star situation in their feedback box and surveys. Do it at least once a month.
It's only going to get much much worse as the (subjective) trash to treasure ratio widens even further. Imagine living in a world where there's 100 four stars, but you only want three of them. That's the default world we're gonna get.
I want Lynette and Charlotte badly too

Well, maybe they'll show up in 5.4. We're rumored to get Furina and Wrio in 5.4, so they'd be pretty good 4 stars to pair with them.
Looks like kachina cons and a lot of starglitter 😂
Fr! I guess it's good if we look at it like that. More pulls 🤣
Not a lot..just a few
Frrr 😂
Yup, Kachina cons and starglitter for me

I have a C0 Chevreuse which I also hoped to make some progress with. I am also in rage town.

Saying the second half is a bit more hype is an understatement. Phase 1 4 stars are basically eating a bag of dog shit. Whereas phase 2 is a wagyuu steak.
nah it depends on the players for me phase 1 is god send to me even the weapon banner is great for me than the phase 2
since I have C0 bennett and Diona can be an alternative for Citlali especially if I get her C6 and Kachina is also great for me since I wanted to Try Dps Plunge Xilonen consist of Xilonen, Furina, Xianyun, and Kachina, Kachina C4 and C6 is great since C4 she can buff def of the active character when inside her burst and her C6 just make her a niche/okay sub dps role so yea it just depends on the players account
Thank you, it does feel like dog shit. I was really hoping for some Chevreuse.
They're not idiots, they know they're putting way more value of the four stars into the re-run banners.
I understand putting chevreuse on arle-clorinde banner
Hell even Lan Yan BC they always do this, put new four star on rerun character banner
But they could've at least given us rosaria instead of diona for mavuika.

Eh the 4 stars hardly matter if that’s your issue. A banner’s worth is tied to the 5 star not the 4 stars as you’ll get plenty of copies of them in time no matter what.
@@TerraTheWisethats false when you consider newer 4*s like chevruse.
i have c1 chev despite pulling on both her banners, amounting to 200+ pulls in total.
especially worse because they rerun with the same 5*s, making it little to impossible to get them over time unless u go for constellations, which is highly unlikely for f2p.
Chasca/Ororon banner exist. The 4* tall electro male literally rarer pull than 5* and probably the example banner on people actually pull for 4* instead of 5*

Man I still dont have Charlotte are we getting chronicled wish for 4 stars too cause what is this? This is like what 6 banners of Bennett this year? It felt like he's been in every banner 😭
Tho I'm sad the banner does make sense and is good for new players. This is a solid starter team for Mavuika.
Hoyoverse playing their players like Dolls like the addicts that they are ....we are
Honestly don't know why anyone is surprised. They've essentially told us that we'll never get a pyro support as good as Bennett by releasing Mavuika as another pyro DPS.
Just like every pyro DPS before her, Bennett is an optimal support, especially for her donut play style. The state of the meta was *PAINFULLY* clear after her kit release. Bennett on this banner is hilariously just as generous as it is exhausting.
Accepting Mavuika means accepting circle impact more than we ever have before. Get used to it folks lol
Hah, you think I will accept that? In your dreams, I benched Bennett long time ago because I fucking hate him and although I may lose some damage, I'm so much happier without his stupid circle.
I started playing on chascas bannerso this an amazing chance for me cause i didnt realize how good benet was till he was out of the starglitter shop. I got 1 50/50 saved up so im really hoping for mavuika
It's miHoYo's favorite 4-star Pyro Boy who doesn't almost missing a banner every year (ok for newbies but not for me who already owned a C6+ Benny a long time ago).
Only Kachina from banner needing those cons while pulling for "going to Cryo Jail soon" Citlali.
Why is no one talking about Sacrificial Fragments for Citlali, it can accumulate 24 + 24 = 48 Nightsoul Points easily, plus with it being an EM catalyst
I know! I was surprised. She has a lot of cracked 4 star options
Because of tales that are full of thrill
Your skill is just going to put a shield up. I think it only damages when you are over 50 Nightsoul. I could be wrong though but that's how I understand it. So probably not going to proc the effect on Sac Frag. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
I just tested sac frag, it triggers when you are next to enemies applying shield and you are below 50 nightsoul. If you are above 50, it triggers further away because of the AoE damage. Even when you are not near enemies, you most likely will have your burst energy high enough to not need to trigger the proc. And if you are running with xilonen (no fav necessary) it's even better. I run it with 150 ER and I have the burst every rotation. Overall it feels really good, you can run EM sands.
@@IshyMimic I noticed Citlali makes 5 Cryo particles, and that'll help another Cryo on the team for melt more than fav might.
But yeah a really nice FTP option (I'm using Nahida lamp), especially for players that don't want to think too much about it.
This banner is helping me skip with 4 stars I already built :)
The C4R1 Chasca I got with the primos I originally stockpiled for Mavuika can be my Pyro DPS for the Abyss’s Mavuika / Arle check.
Let me cook for a moment:
Citlali + C6 Diona on Instructor Set (and if you have it, Elegy Bow) that’s 320/420 EM buff from Diona, cryo resonance, and a bit more Cryo application, don’t even have to build Diona for the shield since you also have Citlali’s which also benefits from the EM buff from Instructor

They are repeating those general weapons, which is appreciated, but so difficult for newer players to get different weapons...Like I have fav all series R5, and at least 2 sets of each already...

Same, I'm just thinking about whether I should c6 Bennett if I get enough cons or if he should stay c5

@@I.disagree unless you want to play niche teams, no meta will be affected negatively, it'll actually benefit in fact.

As a veteran player who's not actually veteran since i took breaks far more than i played i see these banners as an absolute win.
I can relate. I’ve start playing since launch but I took a year break and since 5.2 I’ve started playing again 😜
I've only really taken two proper breaks from the game. The first one, which is also the longest, is from 1.2 to 1.5 (rip first Lantern Rite and Festering Desire). The second one, only lasting 18 days, is just from last month. I have C6ed most of the 4 stars already, but that's actually good for me since I can continue pulling in the banners, lol.
the way they put a semi decent team on the banner is so tea
Well I was really planning on pulling for Citlali and Mavuika, but now I don't really know. I wanna just pull for Arlecchino.
Despite all the banner appearances in the last year, I still need Bennet Cons.
I just leveled Diona for Imaginarium Theater.
I have Kachina leveled for Imaginarium Theater, and she is useful simply by existing via the Natlan set and Geo technically reacting with most of the game.
Oh, I have also never wished on weapon banner EVER, and despite playing for over a year, I have ZERO Favonius Lances.
Sorry guys, I see this furst half as an absolute win on all fronts.
I'm so effing sick of Bennett being on banner.
Four star situation.... complain to them in the survey box 60 times, then in the survey box for 10 kilometers. Every. Single. Day.
No air conditioning.
He runs a median of every 6 cycles
He continues to be a mistake. He's Mavuika's most optimal non-natlan support. They obviously weren't going to miss yet another golden opportunity lol
ever since starting genshin in august these banners are the first ones where i don't have a single primogem to my name but i still feel like I'm going to get the characters anyway😅😅. Planning on pulling Mavuika, Childe and Citlali, I have 70 primos a sack of copium and a dream🤣🤣
Could you test Ayaka, Mavuika, Citlali, Xilonen? Where Mavuika is melting off-field.
It should be fine. Around an extra 120k damage from the melts. Not the most efficient use of slots; tons of aura application being unrealized and the damage amp reactions highly benefit from funneling buffs onto the trigger unit.
If you really want your Ayaka to shine, you should hope for a new element that has a good reaction with Ice. They really like having money so such a thing is very possible.

@@amouramarie Get your 5-star from first half if you were gonna, and then build pity on the 2nd unless you *really* don't like the 5-stars. I know there's always the risk of getting an early 5-star, but I say its worth it for those 4-stars. Only 35.2% of 5-stars come before soft pity (calc'd from piamon moe) so if you're not on a guarantee, that's only 17.6% of winning a 50/50 on a character you don't want, if you wish all the way to 73, starting from 0 pity.
Guys I'm undecided between one of the next two, I was thinking of taking both but opting for citlali and then Arlecchino if I couldn't find mavuika. My most built characters are: venti, xiangling, xinghiu, bennet, fischlC6 BeidouC6, tartaglia, Ayaka very well, diluc and now cascha herself. What do you think? should I go for Mavuika or Citlali First? I also have a Wolf Gravestone ready 4 her
I think Bennett be on the banner 4 or 5 times out of the year.
About every 6 cycles
Having Mauvika and Citlali on the same banner is evil
"Mavuika looks to be an upgrade with every team..."
Me crying with Lyney in a corner:
off field mav with cinder city
could probably work, but charging her burst will be a pain because Lyney uses charged attacks, not normal attacks
I may as well use pyro traveller instead and save my primos
@@appletree13 Yeah, she's not gonna be good with a field hog. She's gotta have a tag team buddy built for tag teamin' during her downtime.
Citlali is pretty solid with Lyn tho. Depends on how far her skill can hit, though... (Which is a problem with Mav and Trav, too. Or every turret character with short stubby arms.)
@@purplerainPRMauvika can't trigger scroll on Lyney teams because she needs to trigger the reaction to get scroll buff and you usually use an anemo or geo unit with Lyney as 4th slot for VV shred like Kazuha or scroll Xilonen or Zhongli petra, so Mav isn't triggering a reaction there nor proccing Scroll set in Lyney teams unless you play in overload with an electro applier that's faster than Mauvika's in a Chevreuse overload team, but you risk missing out on Lyney's A4 100% dmg bonus passive if the opponent has no pyro aura active (which is a massive dmg loss). It's an inherent general flaw of Chevreuse teams with Lyney that I found out while playing it & it probably works only with someone like Kujou Sara C2+ in a quickswappy playstyle due to Sara's weak and easily controllable electro application. On a side note, C6 Chevreuse's ability triggers even when you're not using a pyro+electro team so she can still buff your Lyney's pyro dmg without overload (I tried it and it works) so you could potentially run C6 Chevreuse even while putting units like Zhongli, Kazuha, Lanyan, Xilonen, etc. as the 4th slot
Citlali unironically is better as a scroll set user for Lyney since Cryo doesn't remove pyro gauges as easily as hydro or electro for example and she provides a bit of shielding which is useful for Lyney.
She's actually good for lynei, instead of xiangling, because with xiangling, you want to stay close to the enemies for the pyronado to hit them, you can actually star afar with mavuika. And she'll deal comparable damage to xiangling, it's a confort pick
I was all set to pull for Mav, and Citlali, but i dont want any of the 4 stars, would rather the other banners 4 stars. This changes things.
I'm saving for Mavuika but my favorite 4 stars are all in the second half 😭😭😭 I think i'll wait for the rerun and get arlecchino instead, i really want Lanyan C2 and Cheveruse, Rosa is one of my top 5 favorites too.
I'd recommend going for Mavuika and then just pulling on Arlecchino's banner (or Clorinde) for the 4*s, if you don't mind getting the featured 5* on those banners.
Arlecchino is great, definitely, pulled her on her first banner
At least archons get guaranteed reruns so she should come around again relatively soon.
@@Rue_Soleil But if she like Mavuika why would he waste his primo on a character he dont like just for a 4*.
Four stars are so hard to get and with certain characters repeating 3xs a year, it's harder still. A word of caution, meta shifts in abyss are pretty intense when the archon appears (looks at current abyss) but if you don't care about that so much, 100% go for the second half. That's what I've always done and it's worked out great, but I'm a characters over meta person. I just end up using the time to have some absolutely broken artifacts while I've waited for the rerun good luck on your pulls
Arlecchino is very good!
5:59 Don’t scare me like that!
They really pushed chev from this banner... cant wait to get c12 diona and c15 bennet
Be sure to complain in the feedback box and surveys about the four star situation once a month.
They'll never change anything until at least their analytics guys are miserable.
Second banner is so stacked with 4 stars, pyro archon can wait
That citlali's trailer is so good now I want pull for her. Is mavuika good with r5 serpent spine? i might just pull for citlali instead of mavuikas weapon.
ofc R5 serpent is almost comparable with any character's sig weapon is like 5-10% dmg apart from their Sig weapon, but ofc if you have the max stack of the R5 Serpent so you want a shielder on her
@@ziancarvenreynoso9191thanks, im gonna go with mavuika then citlali
Yep it's good at max stacks with r5 it's around 15-10% damage loss but it's worth losing it for citlali she makes melt teams broken especially mauvika and like 25% better than furina paired with mauvika
SECOND HALF I AM WAITING FOR YOU!
I've been wanting a good catalyst EM stat stick for so long. I skipped Thousand Floating Dreams last time cuz I don't need another accidental copy of Homa lol. I think I'm gonna go for Citlali's. I do have Baizhu and c6 Yanfei and I plan to get Lan Yan, so I will be able to make full use it. Also, I wouldn't mind picking up a copy of Mavuika's and I need more copies of all the 4* weapons (except Lithic ofc). Please be kind weapon banner~ 🙏🙏🙏
Although I don't watch every video that you upload right away, I appreciate how often you keep to a schedule with your videos (or at least post consistently). I can always count on your channel to have some kind of video related to current happenings in Genshin relating to new characters/weapons and updated information. I don't know how much your work gets paid off, but just wanted you to know it speaks a lot about your work ethic.
welp, i have c6 diona and c6 bennett..................... guess ill get alot of resummons... (i have 420 summons for the pyro arcon) honestly......... the 4 stars are probably the worst thing i could ask for... this is just awful for me lol. at this point, mihoyo, please let us pick what 4 stars we want, cause this is so bad for long term players.
Be sure to complain in the surveys and feedback box.
This will just keep happening to us if they don't give us *some* control.
ohh, i didn't know what the title meant until reading this comment lol
i can definitely see this as a problem, i have c6 bennett and multiple cons on diona, this is going to be great
They also revealed arlechino and clorinde banner.
Yep im pulling both
In a shocking twist to no one another anticipated banner has F tier 4* units.
The 4*s are not worth it for me but it's good for newer players wanting a easily accessible Mavuika team
Chevreuse would be a better unit for beginners. healing and buffing... but because its not limiting to only pyro and electro, that might hurt them, but still an amazing healer and buffer,... well okay bennett is just the best 4 star ever, yes,, im so pissed Chevreuse not on this banner tho... like why tf is diona here? just let us pick the 4 stars we want at this point.
@@Honed-Nah Bennett is a better unit for beginners. This basically one of the best banners for new players specially for a Mavuika banner. Even tho I hate the banner myself since I got Bennett and Diona at C6 already, This banner is a solid Mavuika team already for New players. Kachina for Cinder City, Bennett the best Attack scaling dps support and Diona a strong 4 star melt support or you can say a 4 star version of Citlali.
@@S3tsuna1 how many new players are going to get into genshin just cause of the pyro arcon tho...? i think ,,, to me anyways, its to hurt the older players who already have countless copys, cause mihoyo knew long term players really wanted charlet, and the fact they putted the 2 new 5 stars in the same banner is definitely intentional, cause both bennett and muskit girl is highly wanted by vet players, AND also really want the 5 stars so then they will pull everything for those two, and will probably be force to pay to get charlet... and because 4 stars have to pitty system, mihoyo is going to be screwing everyone,,,, besides new players.. nobody's happy, besides maybe arlo mains/wanters lol.(whales dont care they have everything c6'ed) man im so jelly for the ones that missed her the first time and are getting her now.... its so frustrating to me. but yes............... its good for the new players coming into the game. even tho this is frustrating as s**t for me.. i mean sure i can just skip, and wait for a better banner but that could legit take a full year... and mihoyo f**king knows what there doing.
The largest influx of new players is always around the start of a new region. With Natlan soon ending, I honestly can't imagine this helps many lol
You still need several patches to increase your arsenal. And Kachina is great for early and mid game, which is where new players are going to be still.
Why is it every banner I pull on has trash 4*s? Maybe I can get some Kachina cons.
Be sure to complain in their feedback channels. The four star situation has been getting pretty ridiculous, and will only get worse with time.
Could you imagine five years from now? We have new elements Lux, Umbra, etc added. Fresh new dark lord five star lady drops that can summon a giant evil kitty. And the four star character paired with her?
Bennet, Diona, Sucrose.
Oh..... joy....
I wasn't expecting too much of the 4* with Mavuika but holy shit
😭 Why kachina and not Charlotte
I’m guessing we’ll have a Fontaine themed banner with Furina, Charlotte, Lynette. Makes sense to have a healer in Furina’s banner.
Because Mavuika relies on Natlan characters for her burst. They won’t run Ororon again so soon, so Kachina is the only other option
@@shina1399 Ororon would have been so great with Mav+Chevreuse. Ah, our gods are wicked gods.
But the drip is real and they gotta squeeze us for all they can.
I think an Inazuma banner is coming before a Fontaine one
Nah, she makes sense here. Diona tho...
My Diluc is eyeing that Claymore
I might pull it for him
Was praying cheverose was going to be on the first banners 😭😭😭come on mannn
Same
too recent since her last rerun, unfortunately
It would've been nice ❤
@@Re_V smh guess imma risk a 10 pull like i did for ororun 😅🙏🏾
I was waiting for Charlotte how many times they gonna run bannet it's too much
Wow look, Mavi and Citli are up with stargliter conversion rate up. Ahh Kawaii
Maybe i can finally get bennet… after 2 years still dont got him
He's available twice a year in the starglitter shop. That's 4 times you could have gotten him without wishing. This is also the 6th time he's been on a banner in two years.
Bro who actually saves enough star glitter to get a character?? Especially f2p
Charolette found dead in a ditch as Bennett gets his 192837th rerun
Honestly these banners are so bad for long term players. Bennett rerunning every 3 banners is also absurd, like let bro rest a bit.
Diona is just a useless character to most, Kachina is free and only an EM bot with 0 dmg so her cons do nothing.
Meanwhile 2nd half is stacked beyond anything with a new very good 4*, chevreuse and rosaria who has cons worth getting but is obviously on the less desirable side but 2 out of 3 is better than 0 out of 3.
Putting both new characters on phase 1 without extending banner duration is also scummy af. Its not a problem for me but others won't even get to use all of 5.3s primos to pull for mavuika or citlali.
This would be a very bad trend going forward.
Really! Don't get why they dump certain 4 stars and rerun these ones again and again 😢
I have a suspicion (and this is just speculation) that there are more newer players than there are older players. Because hoyo has the numbers of ownership for each character. So they want newer players to have a chance to get Bennett. I know since the Xbox release my cousin started playing Genshin for the first time ever! So I THINK that might be the reason for the constant Bennett appearances. Maybe older players quit more? Idk! That's just speculation I've no idea
Because old players dont care aboout 4* like why would you use a 4* when there is a better 5* support or dps that you can use.
@@fuzyfuzfuz2I've been saying that Natlan is the new Mondstadt. They made massive new player QOL with Natlan's release and allowed players to skip from Liyue to Natlan. Natlan has been a much easier region to complete everything in than the past few regions. The power levels are adjusted up and there's a lot of Natlan exclusivity, which means old players are more incentivized to pull and new players can get caught up quicker. My theory is not that there are more new players than old; it's that they've been focusing most of Natlan (and the banners of course) to bringing in and catching up new players.
@@fuzyfuzfuz2 Bennett has always appeared 3 times a year, but that's a good point about Xbox. Genshin CCs aren't shy about talking about Bennet's importance, so someone doing a casual search is going to find that out ASAP. (Why doesn't this Bennett guy heal me all the way???) He makes those numbers get bigger, and that makes people happy. The amount of people who don't have/use Bennet might influence the amount of people who quit.
I like when 4 stars are all c6 when pulling for a 5 star. Extra wishes are always appreciated
Hey i've got a messed up question: Would this claymore be better on my fully built C6 main DPS Xinyan over her current R5 Serpent Spine?
I mean... if you can keep her weapon infused then maybe... it's a good status stick for her but not even close to Redhorn. IMHO unless you want it for the drip wait for a Itto rerun and get his weapon instead.
not really the weapon passive will work but the uptime is bad so yea R5 serpent spine is still better for her
As a new player I'm more excited for the second half 😭
Citlali this mauvika that, I'm more excited for pyro traveller, shame nobody will properly cover him.
When has traveler been good lol, dendro is the only decent one
@@JanitorMortisPMC can make use of Scroll and has some level of off-field pyro. I'd say that's passable lol
Half expected you to recommend pulling for Citlali first because reruns are near non-existent for Cryos but in near future for Archons.
Looking at the 4*s, if it wasn't for the fact that there's a chance Citlali won't rerun for years, I wouldn't touch the first phase...I don't use Kachina, and I don't want any more Diona or Benny (I've already got well over C6 for both of them).
On the other hand, I want LanYan and more Chevreuse from the second phase...
These banners are annoying me.
while it is true the Cryo is locked at Hoyo Basement but I have feeling they are now letting them see the light again 😅 since they stated/mention it on their 5.3 livestream that "Some characters are not getting their reruns" so I assumed is in their Radar as of now and there is a leak that in 5.4 wrio will come out hope that's true so I don't have to worry for Citlali not getting a rerun if I don't get her somehow 😢
hopefully i can finally get my c6 diona after 4 years. would have preferred if the 4 stars were swapped but hey the 4 stars are great i just personally dont need them. Not gonna stop me trying to pull for both of them though- god help me win both 50/50s...
Oh, this came out 28 seconds ago
We has the same reaction 😂
Too bad u 28 secs late
never built and played with Xiangling for 4 years, good to have a perfect substitute for her yet disgusted that it's the Archon herself
