What Happened To Keqing? | Genshin Impact
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- Keqing was one of the first popular characters of Genshin Impact, and an early game staple for many who were fortunate enough to pull for her. As time went on though, her viability as a main dps was called into question especially after many new, more powerful characters came out. Then when Dendro was released in version 3 she came into a second wind, elevating her status back into relevance. For today I want to talk about What Happened To Keqing, and where is she now?

What happened? She became my wife
@@drfrekz4868Wait a minute...
and then you woke up
Sorry, I think you mean my wife
@@drfrekz4868 wut
@@drfrekz4868I'm the father of Klee's child. Sorry, buddy
I heard that a possible reason why the Keqing banner happened was because of the chinese new year : releasing a character strongly tied to death (Hu Tao) during that period would be considered a bad omen or something of the sort. So they delayed it with the Keqing banner
Of course mihoyo only cares about the fucking china. What else do we expect at this point.
Yeah, I remember this. Hu Tao didn't have a whole lot of marketing like the other previous characters, there were only a few hints of her before release.
That... makes a lot of sense actually.
The infamous tweet.... WHO TAO?
@Dani_RdM to be completely correct, Hu Tao had NO marketing. She was a complete surprise. She's not included in the 1.3 trailer. Some of us at the time pieced together that there was a hidden character banner because Xiao and Keqing's were only 2 weeks long in a 6 week long version. And leaks all pointed at it being Hu Tao. But a good number of people just didn't know she was coming until her banner came out.
Actually there was only a Keqing banner because it would be considered “rude” to show Hu Tao in the 1.3 special program since she is obviously related to death, and it would be considered insensitive if a character so related to death in the Chinese New Years update. So unless you looked at leaks, (which were less prominent back then) there was no way of knowing Hu Tao’s existence until her character demo.
So in conclusion; Keqing only got a banner because Hoyo was scared of backlash.
Edit: I know the 3.4 Hu Tao are a good counter argument for this theory, but I’m guessing that since it’s a two year difference, their mindset must’ve changed? Idk. But I can’t thing of a better answer why they didn’t show Hu Tao back then.
did mihoyo tell you that?
@@Neloch4you don’t need the company to tell you that, china takes death and bad luck very seriously. A simple search could tell you that smartass
@@Neloch4 it was stated within the genshin chinese community
@@isavibe6905 was it mihoyo or not?
@@Neloch4 Idk but its probaly true
What happened to Keqing? She never left.
But seriously, Keqing is my absolute comfort character and will always be my go-to. I still have not found another character whose play style works so fluidly for me, her animations are just a thing of simplistic beauty.
shes really fun and has like 10 minutes of invincibility on burst
For real, people saying, that Alhaitham is a better version of her, but i beg to disaggree. Alhaitham feels horrible to play, his kit feels so much clunkyer compared to Keqing even though he deals more damage.
@@botondnyitrai3128People who saying Alhaitam is Dendro Keqing with more DMG are never played both.
The Playstyle are really different, yes Alhaitham is stronger but Keqing attacks faster, more Fluid and had no ER problems, her Team is also more Quickswap.
But i like both Playstyle, but Yes Keqing is a bit more Fun and comfort to play.
By the way i probably only one of few people that have 3 crowns on both :)
@@krummesblech Keqing is not just more comfort to play, but straight up better designed. Her burst is much better, easier to use. Alhaitham will always use it in a way, that the "closest" enemy he is aiming at is situated in a way, that it wont hit anyone else. Not to mention his ult is basically useless, only good for getting those mirror jades.
His dash is worse too, can't delay it or anything, always pops you right away, not to mention you almost always have to aim upwards for the plunging attack stack on the passive.(I know you can aim it to the ground and if your are quick enough you can plung that way too, but that is almost impossible to do on mobile or with higher ping)
you should try Raiden. 400k ults easy
Keqing has one of the best Burst animation. She may not deal the biggest of dmg, but it sure looks awesome.
exactly! i love the part when she looks directly at us 😂❤
I am the storm that is approaching.
@@_dakisamee so cool
devil may cry
bro.. the eye contact with her.. i love it
It felt so validating being a 1.0 Keqing main when Dendro first dropped. I remember I was in VC with my friends and the first thing I tried out was Aggravate with Keqing and DMC. I remember screaming with excitement, “Oh my god, she’s good again! Keqing is back!!” My friends who knew I was one that copium finally saw the power that Keqing held in her Death by 1000 Cuts playstyle. I don’t play Genshin any longer, but it was one of the most cathartic things I’ve ever felt playing gacha throughout the years 😭
Why you no longer play genshin?
@@meowk123I don't really enjoy Genshin's "endgame" anymore, honestly, among other gripes that include no skip button, even if this game is story-centric, and the minimal rewards you receive from exploring the world and doing the quests. I know the appeal to Genshin, and I respect those who remain enthralled with its world and gameplay loop, but I know I'm better suited to turn-based gameplay and games that don't force me to click my life away with no way to access what I missed in-game if I'm patches of content behind (don't get me started on how important story beats are hidden behind inaccessible limited time events haha). The most I do now is just keep up with what lore is spoiled on my Twitter TL haha.
TL;DR: I don't enjoy Genshin as a whole anymore and don't see it as a worthwhile past time for myself for the time being. I do respect and am happy for those who remain enraptured by the game, though, and continue to wish them even more fun in the future! :)
@@hpazu5516 Don't blame you, personally I think the writing took a big hit during Inazuma/Sumeru but Fontaine's writing so far has been better. Also, Star Rail makes Genshin look a little worse as an offering to spend your time in if I'm being completely honest. Right now I'm just playing both, as much as I can while I'm "working" as a stay-at-home dad. :P
@@hpazu5516 honestly so fair, im pretty burnt out too but fontaine is helping that, i'm already done with the archon quest though so i've just been doing events when i feel like it, and quickly logging in for 5 or so minutes to do my commissions and then getting off again. anyways, i agree aggravate was so OP for keqing, i was so excited!
👎
Keqing got one of the best glow ups in genshin when dednro came out. I personally use keqing aggravate in one side of the abyss and cyno hyperbloom in the other side and i can clear abyss easily with that.
Just in case anyone was wandering my teams are:
Keqing,kazuha,nahida and kuki shinobu
Cyno,baizu,dendro traveler,xinqu
It is really great both Cyno and Keqing can have separate team members. Cyno doesn't need Kazuha while Keqing doesn't need hydro and a strong dendro applicator.
No, Kuki, Thoma and Fischl got a way bigger glow up.
@@kawaiimika7974 Maybe, but you have to keep in mind; this video, nor comment isnt about Kuki, Thoma, or Fischl.
@@luck002what your Cyno team and Keqing team in the Abyss?
@@kawaiimika7974he said "one of the best".
And Fischl no, because she was already strong, so her glow up even if very good is not like for Thoma,Kuki Keqing that passed from being 3 memes to serious units, specially the first 2.
I've always found Keqing a fun character to play so the release of dendro making her stronger has been great.
The only issue I have with Keqing is managing stamina with charge attacks and dodging on mobile 😅 using her in quickswap in dendro teams while barely weaving in normal attacks has made me use her a lot more.
I played aggravate keqing everytime on mobile and I gotta say its the most fun team I've ever played. my comp is keqing fischl kirara kazuha btw
@renoqwp that's my team aswell. My strongest team.
another good alt is switching nahida for kirara, just give her prototype amber for that healing
I wish I had Nahida, came back to the game when kirara was on the banner I missed almost of the dendritic characters. Was wondering if baizu is any good in a keqing team
@@DAV1999should be a strong option if not better option than nahida depending on the team. Something like Keqing Baizhu fischl Sucrose would have a high dmg ceiling Sucrose Em Buff and Electro shred along while being comfy with Baizhu Healing and shields.
Baizhu though would need like Instructor set to to team buff everyone with EM
Keqing was my first 5* since I lost Xiao to her. I was upset at first but after using her I liked using her. I brought her through Inazuma and Sumeru. Sadly I have now becomme an Al Haitham main, but I think Keqing is part of the reason that I like his playstyle. Keqing still has a very special place in my heart and I'm not upset that I got her now. I'm glad that I've gotten to use her for as long as I did.
Brother I also lost 50/50 to keqing on Xiao first banner lol
Their playstyle is vastly different. Maybe you're talking about the animations
@@dighad3824their playstyle is basically the same
@@dighad3824Basically the Same with Al Haitham Just having more steps and much more flexible.
Oh shit this is Vars channel I thought it was Zajef's. I was so confused on the above 2 comments. But now it makes sense
I have been playing Keqing with Kirara ever since Kiri came out and I've never liked a team so much, will stay a Keqing main forever
What’s your team?
i got kirara and keqing right after, i also had fischl so it's basically perfect aggravate team
I main Yae aggravate with Kirara, Fischl and Kaz or Sucrose
I just got Keqing and really want to build her to try her with the team
@@chelseamalarkey116 Keqing, Kirara, Kazuha and Kokomi, maybe not the best but to me it's rlly fun in the overworld (i don't use Keqing in abyss 🥲)
@@acreativenickname4865 I just got her and want to try to use units not already in a team at the moment it looks like it’ll be keqing fischl kirara sayu
how many times did kazuha swirl nothing in the background footage during this video lmao
What made Keqing good to play for me was the fact that you can swap off her immediately. Unlike Cyno that if you want to swap to a different character, the burst will disappear.
I never managed to get Keqing, but I have seen her quite absent in most accounts, I only want her because she looks so cool!
If you have Nahida and get Keqing sooner or later, you won't regret trying that out. Especially with C6 Fischl and Baizhu as the shielder/healer.
I also wants Keqing can play with Quickbloom/Hyperbloom more than just only Aggravate
The reason why Keqing had her own banner as a rate up was because it was the first lantern rite at the time and Hu Tao was meant to release during the latter half of the update. However it's taboo to talk about death and things related to it during Chinese new year and so they didn't speak anythimg about her on twitter, on the live stream, nothing. She was no where to be seen until Feburary 26th 2021 when they revealed her teaser trailer and her banner came up not too much later on March 2nd the same year. They needed someone to fill the two week space between Xiao and Hu Tao (because the banners were 2 weeks each) and Keqing was a Liyue character so I guess they throw her in there.
But none or less. Everyone skipped Keqing for Hu Tao only.
@@VrtielA6300nah, i know at least 10 people who tried getting keqing.
@@Malam_NightYoru I also want her, but not enough Primogems
Pulled Keqing on her very own banner back in 1.3 with tons of luck. She probably still is my luckiest pull to date, or up there at least. Ever since then I‘ve tried to complete stuff with her (and Xiao who I also got in 1.3) not only because they were my favorites, but also out of spite since she was called bad. I never did mind her powerlevel and had a solid team by the end of version 2, but no denying dendro skyrocketed her in every way!
Yep as a Keqing Fan, it's just pure love and appreciation to her character, even if she wasn't viable it didn't matter, she was fun to play and fun to look at. Dendro sure helped Keqing become even more viable. When Genshin Impact first launched, playing Keqing was the most fun unit for me to play, especially her handy elemental skill being able to help with exploring so much.
Mine's Triple Crowned since forever and I still use her alot. Just 36 Stared the Abyss with her aswell. Keeping that low % of usage in Abyss up for my girls Keqing and Sucrose :D
Love to see a fellow keqing main
I have a triple crowned keqing as well but i cant do floor 12 lmao. The fire abyss lector has too much hp and the fastest i can do for both parts is 3.5 mins which is past the 3* requirement
@@craz859 wait bro same like i was thinking maybe i should swap fischl for kuki or add like xingqiu because i cant get past the fire abysee lector
As s proud Keqing main, I love the fact she become so strong after dendro relase
ngl, i think this vid kind of undersells how strong agg keqing is. when cyno came out he was expected to be straight up better than keqing, but she immediately showed her strength in aggravate over him due to rotational flexibility, being able to swap off field without significant drawbacks. cyno by comparison cannot swap off field and his REQUIRED field time is decently long. keqing in aggravate by comparison is more flexible and has a much much easier time refreshing her buffs. keqing's frontloaded electro application, being so fast, along with lower scalings than say Beidou, also allows her to be one of the few electro units who can OPTIMALLY run an em sands. dendro also not only increased her burst viability, but made any copies of her, just more valuable as her electro centric constellations are just better now and scale better with quicken's additive base damage.
finally, agg keqing is the best driver for fischl. that is inherently valuable, synergy with one of genshin's "power five" 4-stars. in aggravate fischl's damage is extremely high due to how many instances of aggravate fischl can have, which is best when played with keqing. this allows keqing to be strong in both ST and AoE. there is no denying it, keqing is great, possibly the strongest aggravate unit in the game, that's valuable. and you say its a niche, but it's hardly any more niche than hu tao being married to vaporize. idk dude, despite how much you seemingly like her, it seems like you're not giving her, her due flowers. cyno wasn't really designed with "quickbloom" in mind, that's a consequence of player innovation, so by all means cyno was designed to be a premier aggravate unit, who ended up not as strong as keqing. she's not going to be dethroned unless you get a unit with her level of electro application, her level of rotational flexibility, and of course one with just better personal buffs. like i'm not even a keqing fan, but she is undeniably great.
Ppl understimate Keqing power, her electro application is so good that make Fischl damage SS Tier
@@eldiosdefavonius-hq6jz Then Fischl just took everything away from Keqing as next one, again. In terms of damage
what happened? she got even more popular than before. There are so many Keqing mains producing content. She's extremely fun and her personality/character are amazing. She is the definition of 10/10. She's also super strong with Dendro and is one of the best chars right now..
As a keqingmains, i really enjoys the attitudes many shares which is not “meta team” but rather “make any character works” mentality. It’s both healthy as well as more fun messing with weird team (thurderingfury EM razor is my shield breaker team now) and change it ups so thing doesn’t feel stale
I wish more players had this mentality. There's also a few player subsets that desperately need the same mentality.
She was my first ever 5-star, first carry that I built a team around, first character that I levelled to 90 and my first companionship 10.
Nowadays she's a bit overshadowed by my national team but I still use her while exploring and completing quests.
Nevertheless, she will always hold a special place in my heart (or at least the Genshin part of it) :D
Keqing is my comfiest character to play to this day, she hard carried me since ar 10 until ar 56 where I pulled my current main. I was overjoyed when dendro finally did her justice.
I never liked Keqing, but today I wanted to try something new, I made a team of her, Fischl and Zhongli, and I actually was enjoying her fast attacks with a lot of aggravate damage. Her talents were 1/1/1 but she still managed to handle enemies quickly. I actually liked on-fielding her.
I often use her against groups of enemies that deal fast heavy damage, because she moves around a lot and can escape easily.
Keqing aggravate is really good. Especially with Nahida and Baizhu on the team, and C6 Fischl for some off field electro applications as well.
Always my fav character in this game. Played her since the early days still play her now. She's so fun!!!
Chlorinde is coming. She's an electro sword too. I hope Kequing remains safe. XD
I still remember how hard the Keqing banner was carried by that one Sad Keqing fan animation by KKOMDA
Keqing's banner was in ruined. All because of Hu Tao and Bennett.
And I don't want Bennett to become the Pyro Archon
too many electro characters, not enough anemo/geo characters
I like that the Keqing Mains subreddit is still using the same profile a pixel art that they made on r/place 2022.
As a former Keqing main it warms my heart to see that she has a new place in the meta
she is nowhere near meta lol
@@blastzdyes She is lol
*FORMER?!* D:
@@VarsII😭😭 im so sorry forgive me🙏🙏
@@blastzdbruv who cares about meta? It’s a game
keqing will always hold a special place in my heart as my first 5 star dps (venti was my first five star). I love her so much and have mained her since the day i got her. she is the only character that I have triple crowned and I even got her signature weapon (mistsplitter is literally for her, it's purple and looks perfect on her). I bought her outfit. I love her so much.
i've been playing since just after the first lantern rite began and i've always started each new region with her. she is what made me love electro as an element. I have every single electro character at level 90 with one talent crowned. it is because of her that I have become a dedicated electro main. the amount of joy she brings me is so insane. she is such a fun character to play and the only character that even comes close to me in cyno, but keqing is so easy to play for beginners while cyno is a but harder to build.
I could literally write an essay about why she's my favorite character from her personality to her design to her role in quests (keqing story quest when??).
to all the other keqing mains out their, I wish you all the best of luck on your wishes and I hope you only loose your 50/50s to out kequeen
ugh hearing the word "waifu" said out loud is literally like the modern version of medieval torture😭😭😭

Keqing is the first standard 5 star I built. She's fun to play
i still use her to this day
Keqing has probably one of or not the longest invincibility frame during burst. Its incredible how she is still invisible while doing her animation even until the end where she raises her hand.
Funny thing to think back that, for her, I spent 2 whole weeks rerolling genshin accounts to AR7 (Yes, AR7, each took half an hour, and it was really good because of the initial preregister rewards). Funnily enough, I didnt get her. Not a single Keqing. I got Diluc, Jean, Venti, Qiqi, Mona and even a Diluc + Jean account, all the while tallying up a total wish count of around 1.3k wishes. It was crazy how I was that unluckily lucky. However, it was then the a few weeks during Klee's first release where I did a random pull on the standard banner and Keqing popped out. It was the most incredible thing ever and Ive been using her since. Optimizing her build and making her as strong as possible.
Nowadays, I already have her at C6 R1 with a CR of 81% and 211%CD with just ovder 2.4k attack (If you calc it, its basically super balanced build). Im happy with my build and its crazy how far things have gone since the rerolling days.
The new free 5 star is awesome and granted me the C6 I long wanted. If any of you like her and would want to try her out! Go ahead, she is amazing and should not be look down upon due to her average damage. Have fun folks.
She was my first 5 star, carried me since the start of the game until the first Hu Tao banner, seeing her get a buff with dendro was so satisfying
I still use her up to this day ❤️
I really wanna build her, but I have Al Haithem, and he’s like, a hotter, more modern version of her.
I built her after the dendro era because i knew she got better but she just didnt feel like what i know al haitham would give me
*less hot
They don't do the same thing. You can litteraly run them both in Abbys.
Keqing, Fischl, Kazuha/Sucrose, Yao Yao
Al Haitham, Xingqiu/Yelan, Kuki, Nahida
@@JosepiThe13th Al Haitham is hotter
@@JosepiThe13th dendro daddy is objectively hotter
There are only 2 things, I think, Keqing needs:
1. Infusion uptime should be slightly above the means to aquire it. In her case It should last 7-8 seconds.
2. Make characters infuses prioritize their own element. If I stand in C6-Bennet-Ult, I don't want to have a pyro-infusion with Keqing. Same is true with Chongyun or Candace... As far as I know, Diluc also struggles in that regard, but that's another story.
She will always have a special place in my heart since I got her on her birthday. Just imagine reading that she wants to visit you and take a stroll through Liyue in the evening and she really appears... I was so happy at that time qwq
Diluc won't struggle as Pyro always wins over Cryo infusion. It only loses to Hydro infusion.
And no sane Diluc user puts Candace with him.
I have almost 100% uptime with TFury though
11:05 “that would be terrible”
The game now: 💀

Keqing is my favorite out of the starter five stars. The minute she came into my party, I ALWAYS used her. Her playstyle is so much fun to use!
-
It didn’t really matter to me how weak she was compared to her main dps peers. I was always proud to play her everytime. Dendro did do a-lot more for her and I couldn’t be more grateful for it.
Please prove your Keqing in Spiral Abyss.
@@VrtielA6300 Why?
@@combatmedic3318 I still seeing everyone abandoned her.
Keqing was my first 5* character. I loved her.
She helped me to go through Mond and Liyue, but when I reached Abyss... Yeah, she was replaced.
And then 3.0 came. I use her since.
Funny how I never used her in Electro region)
Also, Vars forgot to mention that Electro set bafore 3.0 was GARBAGE, but after Dendro release, it became good.
It give Keqing more damage in every way possible: elemental damage, reaction damage and cooldown decrease!
Now Im able to 36* the Abyss without breaking my fingers or switching to other characters!
I have both c1 Keqing and c2 Raiden. I often outperform c2 Raiden in Spiral Abyss with Keqing. If you ever played them both you would understand why pretty quickly. This is because Raiden is more restricted and works best in destroying very tanky enemies in one fell swoop. She is bad at taking down waves of weaker enemies. Keqing however is perfect for slaughtering waves of enemies. Her single target dps against bosses is nowhere near as powerful but her ability to wipe out lesser foes can substantially surpass Raiden. She is far more flexible and comfortable to play which eliminates any awkward downtime when you sometimes overkill enemies or a straggler is left behind by Raiden. Keqing can very flexibly extend her rotation or cut it short to finish off enemies. It is this flexibility that sometimes allows her to clear rooms faster than even a c2 hyper carry Raiden.
Her aggravate team comps are also really flexible. You can be more or less defensive by cutting healing or shielding for more offense and vice versa.
Her 4 star sword Lion's Roar is also quite good in this comp. I use Mistsplitter if Ayaka does not need it. You just have to be careful with your rotations if you are using Nahida and VV anemo.
iirc, keqing had her banner because hu tao couldn't appear on the same time of the chinese new year (death cannot be mentioned in such dates - but i do need confirmation)
Yes it is.
👎
Keqing mains, assemble!
But seriously, I'm glad she has a great use right now. I do enjoy playing with her, especially after a year of a break from the game. My hopes initially were that inazuma would buff electro element as a whole. But as soon as this dream was crashed, i left the game for quite some time, until 3.6 or so. Then i just got back to the game when feeling like it, then i heard dendro is the electro's saviour. So to this day i play keqing dendro traveler combo with supports and cannot be happier.
That is, but i still wait to get a mistsplitter and her own story part, that would be my retirement.
Keqing was my very first 5 star and I got her from my first free 10-pull so she'll always have a place in my heart ❤
I'm pretty sure she was a unit designed around dendro from the very beginning. They probably meant for dendro to be in the game in the beginning, but didn't have time to finish it due to burning always being in the game. Thus some characters always worked better with dendro's addition, but were useless before then. Hydro is the only element that got buffed with every addition to the game, but there are also the least amount of them. So maybe we can see something similar with Hydro soon though for this case it could be a nerf of some sort. lol
Not particularly Keqing, but the whole electro element was made with dendro in mind. That's why it felt lackluster back then, now no one would dare to say that electro needs a buff.
@@ginichimaruan3572 Yeah the way LISA works only made sense after dendro came out.
This is such a stretch lol, I think Dendro simply fixed Electro's terrible reactions. Shinobu and Yae were 100% designed with Dendro in mind, but Keqing working with Dendro is more or less because of the nature of her kit, and not because she was made for Aggravate. Raiden also has a ton of electro application and hits, but she does not benefit from Aggravate, since Aggravate loses value with high-mulitplier hits. Meanwhile, Keqing has a bunch of small (but very fast) Electro hits which takes full advantage of Aggravate's damage calculation. I just don't think a developer could have foreseen that exact scenario, since they were probably the ones that created Xingqiu / Xiangling / Bennett lmao.
not at all lol
Don't see how it's a stretch when Lisa, Keqing, and Kuki were completely unusable before Dendro came out. They were obviously designed with it in mind. Especially when Keqing goes from like F tier to S tier on comps that can use her. Fischl and Dendro broke that bitch. xD Before that though she was by far the worst character in the game to the point where dps built supports did like double her damage with their autos and applied an element.
You are under the illusion that they didn't map out what all of the reactions were going to be ahead of time. Which is like a professional requirement in the planning process, so it had to be planned out. They probably knew what each released character was going to be all the way up to Yao Yao considering her model was in the beta files.
My first 5* character and have a special place in my teams
I wonder what Chlorinde is gonna be like since she seems similar to Keqing, at least from what we’ve seen from that one combat cutscene in Act 2 of Fontaine.
She has a gun though so it'll probably use that
Yeah. That's exactly what I was thinking too.
They've been going on and on about how she's the master duelist. Even showing that she can infuse her em sword with electro and showing that she has fast moves....like Keqing. It's literally as if the devs are warning the Keqing mains that she will again lose her spot.
I recently got Keqing in my pulls and even though I know she´s not top choice for meta, I decided to build her, she´s my only true dps now, at least until I get Raiden.
Sumeru was great in that it buffed some characters that really deserved better. mainly Keqing/Yae/Kuki/Thoma but i have to admit i wish they would do something for former fan favourite Diluc as well. Although i suppose Diluc mains can at least be happy that he isn't Dehya.
One of my fav characters. She's always in my team to 9 star floor 12 in the abyss, alongside kujou sara :D
I wonder if Clorinde, the next electro character that will be realesed in Fontaine will take Keqing place as an aggravate unit or will be something different again.
Keqing is and will always be my favourite goto chara, I pulled for her on her banner using guaranteed pity and have been 36* every abyss with her :3 Her gameplay is so fluid and fun, and will never get old, especially for me
Tbf, dendro buffed ALL electro characters not just Keqing.
And since we are on this topic, it's very obvious that Clorinde will powercreep Keqing. Heck, if not Clorinde then Chiori (being also a 5 star electro) will.

I got Keqing as my first five star on my second account, and over time I started to grow fond of her. I love her skin, her fast attacks and her aesthetics. I play with my friend who uses Alhaitham and Nahida, so I play electro for him and that made me, again, like Keqing more. She’s not the strongest, but she is a special character for many people. As for me, I’ve invested more time into her because I genuinely love her playstyle and looks. Aggravate Keqing is pretty good too
i really wanna build keqing but hoyo keeps releasing new chars, i just got done building kazuha and started farming for her but then they announced yelan rerun 💀💀and next patch is nuivillete and writholy.... cant catch a break sheesh

I got keqing as my second 5* dps very close to sumeru, when her predilect team was taser, I got fishl on the summer event of that year shortly after and I had kazuha from his banner not so long before that, it felt predestined, I've been a keqing main since then, yaoyao was a game changer for me since I could free nahida from my keqing team 😂
I've already got even Raiden shogun, but I just can't let go my girl, she's special
I still play her so much😂 I got her on Standard Banner a long time ago and now she‘s part of my permanent team(s).
She was mid then trash then good now mid again. Wild stuff y'all
It’s a cruel world out here
👎
Keqing-Fischl-Kazuha and Dendro off field applied is the one of the best quicken team hands down, I love vaccuum spoon holder Keqing
Also, she doesn’t really have a weakness in this team, it’s damage output is really high, no janky cooldowns or high er requirement, high mobility etc.
there are better teams but its ight

We got Dendro and Fischl keeps getting buffed. That's what happened.
5:47 NO?! BEIDOU WAS CONSIDERED THE BEST ELECTRO DPS!
7:25 You're telling me, that one of THE BEST FISCHL DRIVERS! Had the a bad Electro aplication???? The math isn't mathing.
10:42 SHE IS NOT COMPETING WITH FISCHL! CAN YOU STOP WITH THIS NONSENSE! THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS, THEY WORK TOGETHER!
11:30 Keqing DOESN'T specialize in Aggravate. She got lucky that Cyno has uptime issues and that she can drive Fischl better than him. If this was not the case HE WOULD BE BETTER THAN HER ALL THE TIME!
12:20 It doesn't matter if she gets powercrept or not BECAUSE OF HOW STRONG HER AGGRAVATE TEAM ALREADY IS! Yae is already better than her in that team BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER since her baseline is good enough.
Yae is not better than Keqing in aggravate. She might seem better on paper but Keqing handles incredibly well with very smooth rotations. Burst and skill cd match up very will to maintain consistent dps with high uptime on all abilities. There is no awkwardness with her. Keqing is also better in AoE than Yae who has issues with her burst uptime. Keqing applies electro much faster than Yae especially if using Thundering Fury set. In single target though I would say Yae can do better as she also scales with EM to improve her dps. I think in terms of multiwave mob slaying Keqing is the winner among all electro characters due to having the fastest rotations.
@@AzureDrag0n1 No, Yae is better. She deals more personal damage. In AoE she will aggravate on almost every single hit because her foxes attack random enemies. In single target she will still deal A LOT of personal damage in top of driving Fischl.
Also, the rotations aren't faster, it's a quick swap team, both of them are. You just have to make sure your buffs are up and that Oz is present on field.
@FayaExidor Maybe conditionally Yae can do better, but Keqing consistent AoE will often give her the edge.
@@AzureDrag0n1 Both of them have AoE and Yae edges her in single target.

To this day Keqing, never left my main team.
She had the special mushroom and got powerful (dendro not anything else)

What happened to Keqing? She became one of the best characters in the game when aggrovate comps became a thing.
Keqing aggravate is my comfort pick for abyss, she always works and clear in very good times while being unironically the most fun character to play with her zooming in the battlefield and spamming ult.
Keqing is the 1st Vergil's daughter in Genshin Impact.
I was a big Keqing main when Dendro released but it all quickly changed when I started playing more on-field Yae. Keqing gameplay is still more fun tho
I was a Keqing main when I got Mistplitter Reforged, before that she was either built but benched or exploration comfort. I remembered the first time 36* Abyss with her was glorious, but nowadays she's so easily interrupted that it feels bad to play, also cuz I don't have Zhongli to this day. I went back maining her for a good while when Dendro came out and I got to feel the same glory again. Fond memories, now I'm a meta main 💀 Shameful but it just works in nowadays Abyss
It’s crazy how many times Kazuha swirled windy plant in the video xD
She became my only C6 5-star prior to Sumeru due to many failed 50/50s. As soon as Dendro made Electro viable, she became my highest DPS driver alongside Nahida on my Aggrevate team. She’s definitely a late bloomer and made me appreciate those failed banner rolls more.
Never got her at all for 3 years now. Other standard characters came but no Keqing from standard banner or losing 50/50.
She’s my first 5 star after 2 years of consistent bad luck. She always remain a favorite of mine
I forget who said it, but “Genshin Impact doesn’t have power creep because Bennet exists”
I’m reminded of it every time someone mentions power creep
It's all Bennett's fault...! 👎
My first 2 50/50 losses. Aggravate is an absolute blessing for her, and I'm looking forward to what Clorinde has to offer
U uploading it the day i bought the Keqing skin 😭😭
I will say this. Keqing, Dendro MC, Nahida and Kokomi team. I'm using this for months and it's a super fun team comp.
Keqing was my second 5* and kept growing (C5 + mistsplitter now, gotten over 2 years)
Then Dendro came out & Baizhu came home and now shes 1. Very quick (playstyle) 2. Comfy (s + Baizhu) 3. good damage ft. Fischl
Its a Win-win-win
Started Genshin just this year, Kequeen was my first 5* and I was lucky enough to almost immediately get a Lion's Roar, both off Standard Banner 🎉. Her +C1 Collei taught me how to use Aggravate and Spread. Rolling Keqing/Fischl/DPS Yaoyao/Kirara.
You did kind of touch on how Aggravate made Keqing play as intended, basically "spam as much electro as possible" and I totally agree. One thing that I found that totally changed how I play her was 4-Piece Thundering Fury. With the hectic number of reactions Keqing outputs, her skill recharges incredibly quickly enabling her to definitively keep 100% uptime on her infusion as well as spend less time charged attacking/dashing around the field. It makes her a far speedier, spammy character which I think is exactly how she should handle. AND this means more electro application, since I've heard that sometimes excessive Dendro application can bump off electro. My rotation goes EE-Q-N1C-EE-switch out and means far, far lower stamina requirements. You can go E-Q-E but I'm finding it difficult to learn lol. Going to get the new BP sword and see if that improves the damage, what with the Elemental Skill spam.
Dendro (and now this new artifact set from Fontaine) has also buffed one of her best supports in Fischl. With the coordinated attacks from Oz benefiting from a spammy playstyle, the team works even better. Not a direct buff, but remember that team-building is the name of the game now and a strong Fischl is great for Keqing.
Bro has cultured stuff on his wall especially the lefmost one
What happened? She became a KeQueen.
You did a nice service to Keqing. She has a strong character and deserves a nice place in Genshin. One other character that has even better personality is Dehya. It makes me sad people ripping on her for lack of place and what Mihoyo did to her. I'm hoping Natlan will be a place where she starts shining.
She's still my main electro unit. Love her!!
Keqing is my fav girl. But as a dendro hater, im playing her old style with Bennett. Yes, she is not abyss capable, but very fun in open.
👎
I pray for the Keqingmains that Chlorinde doesn't clean up Keqing's relevance :o
I only got Keqing after 3.0, I was so happy I immediately stopped everything I was doing (pre-farming for Nahida) to build her because of the "waifu" factor. I was really surprised that she became my main source of damage and I still plan to play her for a long time. I just love how nimble her moveset feels. She is still insanely underestimated IMO.
It was such a delight to come back to genshin after people figured out dendro reactions to learn that keqing was actually in a good spot in the game. she's one of my favorite units to play by far
Keqing is the reason i got hooked to Genshin at 1.0
i always bring her "almost" to everywhere, and im very happy when i can clear full star abyss with her in 1.3 for the first time
yes, i use her less and less time in world exploration, but
she always there for my abyss run, either its top or bottom F12 team to this day.
dude this girl was the reason i started playing genshin in the first place. still playing till this day trying to get the best possible set for her and constellations (currently C3)
She grow on me since Dendro's release, I'm using her on the first half of abyss lately.
The amount of dendro swirls in this video are insane lol
she's been my main dps since the beginning until i got nahida, ayaka and wanderer
I hope IF and WHEN we do get some sort of a third passive for everybody, Keqing could have something that could give her some quality of life to her kit.
If keqing never showed up in a genshin ad on RUclips I would’ve never downloaded genshin. And yes I finished that entire ad
I joined the game when she was on the banner, she also became my first 5 star and carried me in the early parts of the game 🫶 I love her to bits, but I have quite a few t stars and barely use her now :(
I'm one of the few who whaled for keqing on her banner to this day i did not regret it and still use her even tho i got almost all the characters I'll still play keqing
She's still my main almost 3 years on
Keqing was my first 5-star and she carried me through to AR 40. About that time I picked up a Diluc and used him until Ayaka was released and mained her for a good chuck of time. I very recently started building my Keqing up again since she works well with dendro and because I am growing a little bored with my best teams. It's fun to try something new even if what's new is actually three years old. Now if Hoyo would just do something to reinvigorate Qiqi.
