@@Aldz__ You can't compare the danger Level between Signiora to Dottore. Besides that, Nahida got info for us while Venti only said us teehee go to Liyue
He said that, yeah. And we knew about him and Zhongli. But now we know about hikki not-an-archon, newborn archon and mascot archon. I simply don't believe Venti is weaker than any of them.
@@dementialoverexperience venti was a warrior god who fought in wars and as far as age goes he is older than I believe four of the other archons at least and depending on eis age which i cant remember he may be second oldest but it comes down to him having more experience than the other archons he may not seem strong but I wouldn’t put is past him to destroy them in a serious fight
Venti saying he's the weakest Archon is yet another smoke screen. This is the same Archon that "fixed" the lyre for Barbara, who worships his god name while he's just a drunk bard, with temporary magic. This is Venti we're talking about, a trickster of sorts. Sure he could say "I'm the weakest" but he's also just saying that to protect himself because he's been in the wars, he knows not to announce what a big dog you can be. Someone might test it. Yes ignore the little drunk who could probably fling a hurricane at someone. Just as planned.

@@dibosh7405no, you'd be acquaintances at that point. Cause you also fought with him in the revolution, as well as the time spent on way to Inazuma. Not to mention you helped get his dead friend's vision back

@@Ei_Shogun it lasted for 1 year so it wasn't that big of a deal like the other ones but still loves her ppl more than herself her and nahida are so kind that they would kill themselves just for their ppl
@@rushiuppu4180 no he doesnt hate traveller, he was just her enemy for a while and now she helped him too like she helps everyone, he was forced to become friends with her. I still dont think he likes traveller that much, he is still annoyed by traveller and sees her as an opponent because everyone celebrates her as a hero but nobody knows him, i think he thinks he isnt as special as traveller and annoyed by traveller for this reaso. he is friends with her by force to not be rude because she helped a lot and she is a good person. And nobody would left someone to die just because they are a bit annoyed. Especially if you are capable enough to help that person. But i still think he is afraid of her because she is getting stronger constantly. And dislikes traveller.
Kazuha saving us was the most hype moment in Inazuma for me. Starting things off with the competition for a Masterless Vision, Kazuha telling us that it belonged to a friend who died, and then when he was desperate to protect us, his friend, the Vision from his old friend reawakened in response to a strong desire that initially brought it forth to Kazuha's friend in the past.
I can't remember, did we actually see the other vision light up? It could have actually been Venti behind the scenes. I mean, even if the vision did light up, two human visions are still no match for an archon. But another archon...
Archons arent the ones who grant visions, they dont even know how they really work, its just that the people think they do. Raiden has dialogue where she talks about it
Later in the song it says something like "Even if we're 6feet underground you know that we'll be safe and sound" Goes pretty hard with Zhongli saving Xiao at the last second. Zhongli might not have blessed us like Venti did but he does look out for his people.
@@UncleMerlin Do you mean his "About the Vision" line? If so, that's him commenting on how he customized it with a giant wing and offering to give the Traveler a matching (fake) one. Venti's "Vision" is a fake ornament since he doesn't need it, but wears it so people aren't suspicious of how he's able to control Anemo
He’s literally the best imo and it’s not just for this reason. He’s very funny, mysterious, chill and also sweet. His design is also very unique along with his va.
If what we are seeing rn is true (venti is the weakest), then he is just worst in the term of strenght. But overall, i believe Ei is the worst archon rn
@@driplord6150 not rlly since venti and zhongli gave up their control over their region and let their people be “free”. Raiden still controls and rules inazuma meaning she is more of an archon than both of them. Nahida can be seen as both since she does show herself to her people and does make rules and stuff, but at same time she does let sages do things as well so…
@@talkany_ath481 losing a gnosis doesn't mean losing archonhood even if zhongli and venti pretend that that's how it works We know Raiden gave her gnosis long ago to yae miko but that doesn't make miko the electro archon. An archon is someone who was chosen by celestia to obtain a gnosis but they can do whatever they want with the gnosis without losing their status, it's just a catalyst for channeling more power and a tie to celestia.
Scara at the time: what are you talking about? I have no anemo vision! And sertanly wouldn't have a vision from any of you gods! Venti: ehe....... You don't have to worry about that when the time comes ;)
@@romanfairy yeah, i heard that he was actually very close friends with tsarista back then, but she become stronger, greedy and mean. They breaked the touch but venti still wonders what she is up to. Thats why he made signora mad to make her take the gnosis. He didnt even make a single move. Just tried to make signora act fast by showing like he is trying to escape. That wind looked like a baby wind. He basically said "just take it and leave" easily. He didnt resist because he wants to know what will tsarista do too. But i think he misses his old friend.
I love that they did this cuz venti is supposely the archon who doesn't care about his nation cuz he just drinks and sings all day but at the same time he is sending people to save us when we need I think its just cute
He's everywhere, the fact that he is basically overseeing entire teyvat is frightening. At thus point we haven't seem him in sumeru yet but he has been everywhere.
For months, everyone was like: The chain was broken in Fontaine, Venti didn't fulfill his promise. We were saved twice by Wanderer in the summer event of the last Fontaine patch. THE CHAIN WILL GO ON AND ON!
@@shutupanddrink3960these events may be limited time but they are part of the main story. Like the Albedo event. It is very much canon so OP is 100% correct
Everybody talks about Ei and Zhongli but nobody realizes that Venti and Nahida are the only two who legitimately tried to help with what they knew. Zhongli is too stubborn as stone to tell you due to two contracts he made. And Ei is just….Ei.
Nahida is the Archon that loved his people the most, even when her love wasn't reciprocated by many, even when some of his people trapped her, she *never* stopped loving them and showing them mercy, Venti fought in a dilemma to save his people and help his friend, and even after saving his friend and he was falling to his death, ours too but we will ignore that fact, he didn't ordered him or asked him to help us, because he wanted Dvalin to make his own decissions and be free, the other two literally were menace to his people, Ei with the Vision Hunting and the Sokaku decree and Zhong Li literally let the Harbingers do whatever they wanted
In all fairness, we don't know the stipulation of Zhongli's contracts and the consequenses of breaking them. Like sure, we helped save Liyue but him breaking his contract could mean an even worse fate fro Liyue or Teyvat for that matter. Plus, given that he is the Archon of contracts, to break his own ideal wouldn't seem right. Ei on the other hand is more unknown, not sure how much she would know if anything but since we never directly asked her, still a mystery
ei simply didnt know anything about the other sibling because she didnt went in khaneriah, its makoto that maybe knows or surely knows nahida has the biggest brain and heart of all the archon so far, bartering knowledge with the doctor about the other sibling before losing the gnosis, also using former enemy to browse the irminsul for info
Venti is best. In a world where power is pretty much everything and you gain power through pushing your values on others, he goes out handicapped and still has the country with the least issues. Heck, Mondstadt is free enough to send out the majority of its fighting force abroad. As for issues at home, they’re the only nation so far to not have a serious bandit problem and Dvalin would have been handled much sooner if not for us. The moment Venti’s plans went awry, he immediately shifts to turning the problem (us) into a very big advantage. Zhongli was great for his time, but Liyue is only now catching up to the independence of Mondstadt. Ei is Ei. She lacked experience with a job that she wasn’t planning to take. Nahida is a solid start, and likely would surpass Venti eventually. But she’s still new. She isn’t lying when she brings up things she does not understand. And she absolutely needed our help at first.
Venti's always watching out for us. And considering he's the most secretive even compared to Zhongli says a lot. Maybe he did meet the traveler before in Khaenri'ah and even helped the traveler and their sibling escape. His core values IS freedom.
venti: ok my children, go rescue the traveler for the umpteenth time because he can't pass an archon mission without fainting. Xiao: *nods and leaves* Kasuha: After carrying the fate of a nation on my schedule, I too would faint. Wanderer: most useless fucking thing hahahahahaha.
That part where Kazuha saves our ass from Raiden Shogun gave me the biggest chills in the game. Also when the Wanderer got his Anemo vision for saving us is one of the biggest and best surprises in the game’s lore. Anemo is just built different.
@@Horne_Baka but that technically lines up with Venti still Winds can be helpful or hurtful, but Venti makes sure the winds always blow forward even if they have to take a sharp ans sudden turn
@@LeDave257 I'll do even better, have 3! *Eula:* Treated like shit by her parents, treated like shit by most people in Mondstadt, and understandably doesn't have the social skills to actually communicate (not that most people in Mondstadt would trust her). She works herself to the bone for a city that hates her. *Ayato and Ayaka:* Their parents died when they were still children, forcing Ayato to step up and take command of the entire Kamisato clan and the Yashiro Commission, fending off enemies both in politics and in combat... all while unprepared for his parents' sudden death. And Ayaka had to deal with all this happening as well, long before she reached adulthood. *Ei:* Spent thousands of years training herself to become a god of war for the sake of her sister (and few friends)... Sasayuri was killed by the Watatsumi forces during the war with Orobashi, while everyone else all died in the Cataclysm; Chiyo's mind was consumed by erosion, Saiguu was consumed by Abyssal corruption, and Makoto died on mainland Teyvat, before Ei could reach her. Not only did she lose everyone she cared about, she lost them all to the one thing she spent her life perfecting. These are just the ones I'm familiar with enough to comment on. I'm fairly sure Rosaria, Diluc, Qiqi, and Shenhe have their own tragic backstories to deal with. I could also write about Sara, but I think 3 is enough for one comment. So yes, there are plenty of non-Anemo characters who have tragic backstories.
I'm convinced Venti is the strongest Archon he just pretends to be weak because of his whole freedom schtick, I'd love to see how badass a angry Venti is
There’s a reason why Venti/Celestia has been giving anemo visions to people who have lost a close friend. They now have another friend to fill in the hole left in their hearts.
Ei mentions that archons do not give visions, but at the same time no electro vision was given out after she closed inazuma’s borders. This would mean either archons just don’t give visions and it’s a coincidence bc it’s been only 1 year or archons have smt to do with giving visions but celestia grants it to the user so venti doesn’t have connections with other anemo characters.
Venti's words can't be ignored. I feel like they might reveal venti as the strongest archon later in lore. He was just so unaware all this time. And also anemo is most cherished element in lore.
"The same wind graces the seaside as that which wafts over pastures green. Wherever you see clouds, it was the wind that carried them there. Don't worry, my friends, the wind will always be with you." - Venti, during Summertime Odyssey
Don't forget when Xiao created an Anemo updraft to get Yelan, Yanfei, Shinobu, Itto, the Traveler, and Paimon out of the weird dimension when his power was running out trying to use the compass to escape.
honestly, this is the biggest eye opener statement I heard for Venti! Now that you mentioned it...*looks at Xiao and Kazuha* I absolutely agree. Plus I truly Xiao and Kazuha's skills.
I know its not the archons themselves that give the visions but I like to think that the users of the vision reflect atleast some component of the archons themselves like values and aspirations
Also electro! Razor was one of the first to help us, save us I mean, as well as getting help from Keqing in battle, saved by Yae, saved by Cyno, and Clorinde in Fontaine. Ororon also helped in Natlan.

Another thought; the reason why our anemo gang saves our traveler is because they're afraid to lose another friend.

Yeee I'd say Xiao's moment of saving new friends at all cost is during the phantom cave quest in the the chasm
i mean xiao is an adeptus so its his duty to protect the people
Xiao lost four(+1?) lol
Imagine venti like full on saves us in the endgame

I'm counting on it somehow. Like... The very first Archon who we befriended and saved his beloved pet dragon with. Heck yea, full circle!
And it seems he would be the only one to go against the heavenly principles due to his carefree nature, unlike others (I've not yet done sumeru quests because I quit genshin two years ago so please don't come telling me I'm wrong if I am)

1) When we first meet Venti, he says "Traveler, you don't remember me?" That is suspicious, implying that its a possibility he had some involvement with the other twin.

5) In his character demo it says "Full of Mystery, Born from the branches of time", which connects him with the God of Time. That God is also said to be linked with a Primordial One, which would make Venti a key to understanding Celestia's true intentions.

7) It was obvious Venti did not fight back when his Gnosis was "taken" from Signora. He was also the only one to have his forcibly extracted from him, while the other Archon's surrendered theirs. Venti's hair did not glow, therefore he didn't even bother to tap into any powers. His behavior and how he handled the situation was potentially a Gambit move, similar to how he tells us he's the weakest Archon. He did say he created a fake vision for himself, so maybe its a fake, maybe it's a strategical move to have his Gnosis taken. Either way, he did give Anemo Archon power to Dvalin, so I'm sure that will come into play, and he seems to know what happens next, implied by a certain conversation with the Traveler during the Golden Archipelago questline.
8) The Queen piece in chest is the strongest/most important piece.

While Venti and Nahida fighting along side with Adventurer..

Raiden : I'm gonna whoop your little ass
Too true😂😂😂
Zhongli actually act like a parent, helping by the outside, Doin, buffs and protecting slightly everyone, so they Can do the most of the work and grow up

@@Cosmic_Ocean_ but doesn’t he hate the traveler or dif opinion change from events I stopped playing before he came out as a character
@@rushiuppu4180 no he doesnt hate traveller, he was just her enemy for a while and now she helped him too like she helps everyone, he was forced to become friends with her. I still dont think he likes traveller that much, he is still annoyed by traveller and sees her as an opponent because everyone celebrates her as a hero but nobody knows him, i think he thinks he isnt as special as traveller and annoyed by traveller for this reaso. he is friends with her by force to not be rude because she helped a lot and she is a good person. And nobody would left someone to die just because they are a bit annoyed. Especially if you are capable enough to help that person. But i still think he is afraid of her because she is getting stronger constantly. And dislikes traveller.
This is why I love all the Anemo boys
Kazuha saving us was the most hype moment in Inazuma for me. Starting things off with the competition for a Masterless Vision, Kazuha telling us that it belonged to a friend who died, and then when he was desperate to protect us, his friend, the Vision from his old friend reawakened in response to a strong desire that initially brought it forth to Kazuha's friend in the past.
i get emotional on my period and when i got that part and i started crying 💀💀
really random but that was also what i thought too
I can't remember, did we actually see the other vision light up? It could have actually been Venti behind the scenes. I mean, even if the vision did light up, two human visions are still no match for an archon. But another archon...
@@samothrace2106 we did and he combined their power to block it
I like to think venti gave wanderer a vision just to save us. Pretty much like: "gotta save him but no anemo in sight...here wanderer take this" LMAO
You’re giving me the image of Venti just chucking the anemo vision at the Wanderer’s head lol 😂
Lol, that is so accurate 🤣🤣🤣
Archons arent the ones who grant visions, they dont even know how they really work, its just that the people think they do. Raiden has dialogue where she talks about it
Behold puppet, THE WINDS OF FREEDOM
Wanderer: oh cool
Btw, your first job is to save the Traveler
Wanderer: goddammit
Celestia gives out the visions, not archons, unfortunately
That look in kazuha’s eyes wasn’t fear, it was memories and not wanting to lose another friend
Edit: can y’all stop it I know it’s still fear in a way
that’s fear and trauma
Yeah... I wonder if the word "fear" comes into play at all there, eh? ;)

Honestly Kazuha is so much stronger in the lore than people give home credit for.. HE LITERALLY HELD A BLADE TO THE SHOGUN 😂
Considering that she killed orobashi, a god, with such kind of hits in the past, it's insane feat for a smol anemo ronin.
Also considering that she cut a island in half & still he managed to hold her back
@@gamingworld3m i like to think when his friends electro vision activated for kazuha he went full on defense because electro is immune to electro
@@dynamitebeastgaming7720 true
I think that's shown quite well. In his story quest, Kazuha is basically a celebrity to the people of Inazuma.
Xiao did it again in the chasm
He ready to sacrifice his life for travelers and liyue 😢
Later in the song it says something like "Even if we're 6feet underground you know that we'll be safe and sound"
Goes pretty hard with Zhongli saving Xiao at the last second. Zhongli might not have blessed us like Venti did but he does look out for his people.
Also I am crying

@@OrumaitiO I like how ur saying facts.
clearly Raiden is the worst, some simps just failed to realize that I said what I said
If what we are seeing rn is true (venti is the weakest), then he is just worst in the term of strenght. But overall, i believe Ei is the worst archon rn
venti: yo my homie died, and my homie's homie died, we gon protection you homie
Venti: Most supportive archon
Zhongli: Archon that reminds us to slow down
Raiden: Can't cook.
Nahida: Most helpful Archon
venti is barely an archon at least now
@@talkany_ath481 technically zhongli as well
@@Ei_Shogun and Raiden
@@driplord6150 not rlly since venti and zhongli gave up their control over their region and let their people be “free”. Raiden still controls and rules inazuma meaning she is more of an archon than both of them.
Nahida can be seen as both since she does show herself to her people and does make rules and stuff, but at same time she does let sages do things as well so…
@@talkany_ath481 losing a gnosis doesn't mean losing archonhood even if zhongli and venti pretend that that's how it works
We know Raiden gave her gnosis long ago to yae miko but that doesn't make miko the electro archon. An archon is someone who was chosen by celestia to obtain a gnosis but they can do whatever they want with the gnosis without losing their status, it's just a catalyst for channeling more power and a tie to celestia.

@@romanfairy yeah, i heard that he was actually very close friends with tsarista back then, but she become stronger, greedy and mean. They breaked the touch but venti still wonders what she is up to. Thats why he made signora mad to make her take the gnosis. He didnt even make a single move. Just tried to make signora act fast by showing like he is trying to escape. That wind looked like a baby wind. He basically said "just take it and leave" easily. He didnt resist because he wants to know what will tsarista do too. But i think he misses his old friend.
Moral of the story:
The boyz got ur back
So indirectly venti is always with us
Venti: protecc traveler they need to find their sibling. Don't let them die.
Literally all of them: ok
Freedom is the hardest thing to truly achieve for yourself but once achieved you will be glad that you stood through all the troubles.
Even if the world comes to chaos and catastrophe, in the end, the only thing that people will seek is freedom
I love that they did this cuz venti is supposely the archon who doesn't care about his nation cuz he just drinks and sings all day but at the same time he is sending people to save us when we need
I think its just cute
He's everywhere, the fact that he is basically overseeing entire teyvat is frightening. At thus point we haven't seem him in sumeru yet but he has been everywhere.
I mean, in the archon quest I just got to Inazuma so idk whats gonna happen in Sumeru.
Im trying not to get any spoilers about the lore
It's not that he doesn't care, he just gives freedom and don't want to interfe much x)
For months, everyone was like: The chain was broken in Fontaine, Venti didn't fulfill his promise. We were saved twice by Wanderer in the summer event of the last Fontaine patch. THE CHAIN WILL GO ON AND ON!

@@shutupanddrink3960these events may be limited time but they are part of the main story. Like the Albedo event. It is very much canon so OP is 100% correct

Bro secretly gave us a blessing
that's why we're safe and sound
Is it really secretly?
He literally tells us to be blessed
@@TheCheshireblackno one thought it would be true just play along
Everybody talks about Ei and Zhongli but nobody realizes that Venti and Nahida are the only two who legitimately tried to help with what they knew.
Zhongli is too stubborn as stone to tell you due to two contracts he made. And Ei is just….Ei.
Nahida is the Archon that loved his people the most, even when her love wasn't reciprocated by many, even when some of his people trapped her, she *never* stopped loving them and showing them mercy, Venti fought in a dilemma to save his people and help his friend, and even after saving his friend and he was falling to his death, ours too but we will ignore that fact, he didn't ordered him or asked him to help us, because he wanted Dvalin to make his own decissions and be free, the other two literally were menace to his people, Ei with the Vision Hunting and the Sokaku decree and Zhong Li literally let the Harbingers do whatever they wanted
fr
In all fairness, we don't know the stipulation of Zhongli's contracts and the consequenses of breaking them. Like sure, we helped save Liyue but him breaking his contract could mean an even worse fate fro Liyue or Teyvat for that matter. Plus, given that he is the Archon of contracts, to break his own ideal wouldn't seem right.
Ei on the other hand is more unknown, not sure how much she would know if anything but since we never directly asked her, still a mystery
ei simply didnt know anything about the other sibling because she didnt went in khaneriah, its makoto that maybe knows or surely knows
nahida has the biggest brain and heart of all the archon so far, bartering knowledge with the doctor about the other sibling before losing the gnosis, also using former enemy to browse the irminsul for info
Venti is best. In a world where power is pretty much everything and you gain power through pushing your values on others, he goes out handicapped and still has the country with the least issues. Heck, Mondstadt is free enough to send out the majority of its fighting force abroad. As for issues at home, they’re the only nation so far to not have a serious bandit problem and Dvalin would have been handled much sooner if not for us. The moment Venti’s plans went awry, he immediately shifts to turning the problem (us) into a very big advantage.
Zhongli was great for his time, but Liyue is only now catching up to the independence of Mondstadt.
Ei is Ei. She lacked experience with a job that she wasn’t planning to take.
Nahida is a solid start, and likely would surpass Venti eventually. But she’s still new. She isn’t lying when she brings up things she does not understand. And she absolutely needed our help at first.
And this is why venti is my favorite archon. Dispite not helping us find our sibling he helped us stay safe elsewhere
"May the wind protect you, Traveler"
"I will see you off here, May the winds bless your travels"
Venti's always watching out for us. And considering he's the most secretive even compared to Zhongli says a lot. Maybe he did meet the traveler before in Khaenri'ah and even helped the traveler and their sibling escape.
His core values IS freedom.
venti always picks the bestest boys
Fr
And the most traumatized
We would be dead three times over if it wasn’t for him. We need to remember that before we start insulting him
venti: ok my children, go rescue the traveler for the umpteenth time because he can't pass an archon mission without fainting.
Xiao: *nods and leaves*
Kasuha: After carrying the fate of a nation on my schedule, I too would faint.
Wanderer: most useless fucking thing hahahahahaha.
That part where Kazuha saves our ass from Raiden Shogun gave me the biggest chills in the game. Also when the Wanderer got his Anemo vision for saving us is one of the biggest and best surprises in the game’s lore. Anemo is just built different.

*Ei:* Spent thousands of years training herself to become a god of war for the sake of her sister (and few friends)... Sasayuri was killed by the Watatsumi forces during the war with Orobashi, while everyone else all died in the Cataclysm; Chiyo's mind was consumed by erosion, Saiguu was consumed by Abyssal corruption, and Makoto died on mainland Teyvat, before Ei could reach her. Not only did she lose everyone she cared about, she lost them all to the one thing she spent her life perfecting.

“Ok anemos yall have a job now” - venti
I'm convinced Venti is the strongest Archon he just pretends to be weak because of his whole freedom schtick, I'd love to see how badass a angry Venti is
Remember venti himself saved us (traveler) first from stormterror
This is one reason why venti is my favourite archon
(He cares about the Traveller more than anyone 😭)
There’s a reason why Venti/Celestia has been giving anemo visions to people who have lost a close friend.
They now have another friend to fill in the hole left in their hearts.
Ei mentions that archons do not give visions, but at the same time no electro vision was given out after she closed inazuma’s borders. This would mean either archons just don’t give visions and it’s a coincidence bc it’s been only 1 year or archons have smt to do with giving visions but celestia grants it to the user so venti doesn’t have connections with other anemo characters.

Venti's words can't be ignored. I feel like they might reveal venti as the strongest archon later in lore. He was just so unaware all this time. And also anemo is most cherished element in lore.
