@@TroubleisHerefinally, 2 years only HuTao represents the pyro damage, it's good have a character that probably can be a better option and probably can win Hu Tao
ya. Her shield is more like a tool to apply more Pyro or do extra damage than being a shield. I find myself trying more to avoid attacks because I don't want the shield to take damage and disappear lol
You can 36* abyss with 4* characters. Hyperbloom one one side and whatever you want to throw together on the other. Don't miss out on mommy bc of some damage numbers. But if ya wanna risk it, go ahead. What adventure rank are u?
@@risang5850 I love seeing a character people called mid actually being good. People are so focused on his mono pyro team as a negative but he is so strong. i can understand if they don’t like it because it takes the 3 best supports but that is not an excuse to call him bad. Nilou wants only hydro and dendro but her teams deal so much damage. People were saying Alhaitham was going to be mid too upon his release simply because he was not Nahida but he is an incredibly strong character character.
@@Candytime9 his passive to force him mono pyro actually on par with reactional dmg but without icd if i'm not wrong. and boy my alhaitham is much more reliable than my hutao team, right now my always pick on abyss.
@@risang5850 true. But many people have been conditioned into thinking reactions are always better, so they will never even bother trying to understand Lyney’s potential because they dismissed him the moment they saw mono pyro. I use mono geo and it still slaps but I think Lyney mono pyro will be better.
These raw dmg stats are actually insane like when was the last time you saw a f2p build with mediocre investment do 60k dmg within 2 sec solo consistently 😮 Edit: I’ve started a war lol
I love Lyney's personality so much. His design and jp voice are beautiful, and his kit looks pretty too. I also love sucrose and want to use her more. Definitely I will save for him one day once i get Sigewinne and Navia :)
Lyney's kit may *encourage* mono pyro, but it is 100% not mandatory. The total buff you get out of his passive for going mono pyro is ~50%, which is the same as you would get from hitting vape/melt, so he is a lot more flexible than you'd think.
@@NasiKandaria as is shown in the video yeah it just depends what your 2nd pyro is/rest of your team. also depends what your goals are for the team, as abyss has only gotten harder and harder and lyney is the squishiest unit in the game and basically NEEDS something like a zhongli shield or other form of damage mitigation, especially because he has his own life drain effect
@@tubisi it’s almost like you didn’t actually read what I said. The passive buff at full strength leads to the same amount of increase in damage as hitting a vape/melt. Aka you have flexibility with him that lets you do vape/melt OR mono pyro without losing out on damage. The passive is what lets him do good damage on mono pyro. If you’re not on mono pyro, yeah the passive isn’t doing as much, but you’re also actually hitting multiplicative reactions
People who want to hate a character will always call him mid and find excuses like his mono pyro "restriction" which I have heard already but seriously what is Hutao without Xingqiu and or Yelan lol. Someone said something like 'why is everyone focusing on his good damage when they should be talking about his crappy kit' lol.
He is kinda growing on me now... Like... I didn't wanna pull him.. But he seems very convenient for exploring... Like that passive. And..... HONESTLY HE LOOKS TOO COOL and his damage seems good too. I am at a point in game.. Where I can very easily afford to get any character I want... As I already have teams... Like very good teams for abyss. So yeah... 😅. I kinda wanna pull him noe. ❤
@@kyero8724Idk man, his stack and explode system is fun imo. You meed to be mobile, pay attention to HP, and switch fast. It's so much more fun compared to ganyu and yoimiya
To be fair, I'm at a similar stage in the game and I pulled him purely for his exploration skill >.> Well, I could run with the interactive map, but I guess I'm too lazy.
as someone who has mained ganyu since her release im glad to see theres another charge atk bow in the game, will take him probably another few years to be as good as my ganyu now but looking forward to the grind
This is one of the most interesting videos I have ever watched on youtube I really like the way he talk about the character then his kit then everything else it's rather rare to see someone with this style of speech thank you for the great video and I just got lyney and his weapon and have no regrets
his passive is really carrying him because +100% bonus dmg is basically the 2x multiplier of vaporize (althought cannot benefit from EM) but even if you play him in other teams he wont fully shut down his other utility and apparently his ascension stat + new set gives him so much crit rate, you need only worry about crit dmg and er (atk can come from benny. in fact i think benny is given for free here as he will be a staple in lyney teams)
Since he will be played with a lot of Pyro chara, you basically can slot in favonious Benny and kazuha, and even a yanfei will get a burst charge in 1 rotation. Heck he even gain 3 energy himself for every cat hat that when explode hit enemy 😂
@@aseriesofunfortunateevents9296 His kit and gameplay is similar to yoimiya, normal attack centered gameplay, skill enhances normal attack and a not so important ult
As someone who usually loses her 50/50s, I'm really happy with the Yelan I won and the tighnari I got on Lyney's banner 11 pulls later, but since Zhongli is coming, can't go further. Still, may Lyney wanters be Lyney havers. I'll join you on his rerun:D
What are you on? It’s been established that Yoi is amazing in ST dpsing. In vacuum anyways. She’s amazing outside of it but ppl like you still perpetuate this lie. Why?
ZL stock just increased. Like you said, he can carry the Petra set for 35% pyro damage and 20% res down which basically makes him very close to Sucrose performance. However he provide a perfect defense for Lyney to shoot without fearing of interruption. Feel good man.
Confused ahh human. I've run this before and it's hard and tedious to always get those crystals. Besides the domain for the artifact set is not good for most characters. And lastly, his res shred at best, is like a 5% dmg increase (calcs).
@@putent9623 it is not that far from sucrose. 40% res downmakes generic enemies -15%, 20% res down makes them -5%. So the difference is 115% of VV vs 105% of zl shield which is under 10% different. And also, 20% shred alone is a different from 90% damage to 105% damage which is more than 5% increase. About petra, the set is very decent in mono team because you have so many way and easy to get the crytstal and you cannot pick up the wrong one. Even xiangling snapshot so you can just Lyney > Zhongli > Bennett (can swap between Bennett and ZL if you build him damage) > Xiangling > Lyney. The petra buff and bennett buff will last around 7 to 8 seconds on lyney result in around 12s of soft rotation and around 22s to 24 hard rotation with xiangling ultimate and Lyney skill CD. Bennett ultimate and xiangling descyn with Lyney would be a bigger problem to be honest. I have been running Ayato carry with ZL bennett and YJ for over 1 years with ZL using Petra clearing everything in 2-3 Ayato E with full buff of Petra, Bennet, YJ. It is not a problem at all as you only spend like half a second to get the crystal
@@putent96231. It's a mono pyro comp so it's at least easier to get pyro crystallized shards than reaction focused comps. 2. Strongbox is a thing 3. Petra set's 35% pyro dmg bonus is almost equivalent to a Kazuha buff (40% at 1k EM), his 20% res shred is half of viridescent set effect. Zhongli is like a semi Kazuha to Lyney, no other shielder can give as much buffs like him specifically for crystallize-able mono comps.
Wriothesley is cryo heizou, main dps catalyst and uses punches. I really wanted him but I don’t like main dps’s who soak up time. I need more Quick-switch characters
I love Bow users to death, instantly pulled. He’s been super nice so far, and his passive of finding materials around Fontaine has been super useful. Not the biggest fan of the monopyro, so currently just running a Lyney, Yelan, Bennett, Kazuha. It’s impressive how high the damage he can deal.
@@Yoongistangerinedealer With Lyney? Nothing lmao, he isn't built at all yet. All I have on him atm is Aqua Simulacra and thats about it, cant find all the flowers needed for him, plus talents. But running around and just throwing his cat everywhere is fun.
omg Lyney is sooooo good even though I haven't completed building him yet. I took him into spiral abyss just to test out with some slapped on artifacts and he was already doing impressive numbers. I cannot imagine how much of a beast he will be when I'm through building him. As a Ganyu main, I'm really enjoying his gameplay so far.
THey better release a new Amber form after this, this is the first time they actually invalidated her kit by giving a character that does both things she is known for in one move
pulled him with the free gems from the update right after I pulled a c1 wanderer like 5 pulls after my first wanderer. Now I will save for the archon! So glad he's strong cant wait for Furina!
I've been playing mono cryo with Ayaka for a long time now, so I think Lyney's kit suits me perfectly! I didn't used any reaction before I got nahida anyway 😅
i think they have an invitation to access the upcoming versions (more like beta testing) and only allowed to upload their content when it is time for the official release.
@@manoharalisa5829I'd say that my aim is decent but i like how i can shoot anywhere else when doing the barrel challenges. Tighnari cheats his way with his auto aim 🤣
Would you ever be able to do a Normal Attack damage showcase or tests for Lyney at all? If his NA are doing around 5k with just his passive and without the full hayayumi buff, imagine what he would be doing with Rust, an NA oriented artifact set, and a mono pyro Yunjin team with Bennet and Xinyan. He would be doing MUCH more. Perhaps his damage multiplier would also multiply the Yunjin buff?
I was expecting the comment section to overflow with these jokes ! IWTLose made soo many jokes about cat hat and premature explosions but no one noticed
I was becoming increasingly more concerned each time he mentioned either cats, hats, or the player prematurely exploding... IWTL truly has a diabolical side to him
Soooo I just got Lyney. On a 50/50. Which I usually lose. I am ecstatic, I am overjoyed, [insert more synonyms for extremely happy here] HE CAME HOME. (at wish 80 if you wanna know.)
Tbh bennet+xiangling+sucrose/kazuha will make a lot of character perform well Wish he wasn’t so restricted in terms of team comps because of those supports are in high demand.
The thing about ganyu is that she was made during the "how the fuck do I balance these characters" era of genshin, where we got some of the most busted, as well as some of the most underwhelming characters in the game in terms of performance. Raw ganyu damage blasts lyney out of the water when played optimally, though this is balanced out by the fact that ganyu is so fucking atrocious to play that she inflicts a considerable amount of mental damage to the player for even considering the thought of using her
I want to use him with Benny/Xiangling/Lynette hopefully her taunt + the taunts from his cat spawning arrows should be enough to keep him from being constantly interrupted.
@evanwang6384 I don't watch allot of reviews. I didn't even watch any of kirara pre or post release videos. But after building her she was a solid character. So it's not even the hype. It's just that she is more than usable.
I’m used to working with low tiers as mains (I’ll be a Chongyun main til the day I die) but I’m glad Lyney is actually a really good unit! Excited to build him!!
Chongyun main here as well ✊️ you know all those hardwork you put in the low-tier bcs you wanna main them, and then when you move it to an actually good tier they become so so much OP 😂
I'm so happy after saving for so long, I got him and his weapon early. Unfortunately I have to wait until tomorrow to get all his talent and weapon level up mats, but I'm not complaining 😅
Tempting character to pull tbh, I really like when a character is independent without the need to be support by specific characters. But my will can't be shaken, Dehya visit me two previous banner ago. So the brat hydro archon will 100% come home to me.
@@jaydenking7408 Genshin comes back online at a synchronized time across all servers, and big content creators like IWTL are given access to a media server to make build guides before the units come out.
I’d like to know how the new craftable Fontaine bow and the Prototype Crescent would work on Lyney, compared to Hamayumi. Putting Stingless in might be interesting too!
When her HP is less than 40%, Dehya will recover 20% of her Max HP and will restore 6% of her Max HP every 2s for the next 10s. This effect can be triggered once every 20s. @@leovu8500 this does sound like dehya would still be good for fontaine since it doesnt state that you have to be attacked under 40% to start the passive
Thank you so much for the video! Just wondering, are you planning on doing your usual breakdown of best weapons, artifacts, and DMG showcase on diff bosses? ❤
I got Lyney just rn, with 0 pity and 50/50, i returned to genshin after half year and got some fates from some missions, so i pulled a 10x and i see its golden i was like "oh!, its alright if i lose the 50/50, i want mona or qiqi", and i see Lyney. I was like 💀
That showcase was half of it Lyney getting staggered and the other half of it was wasting most of time setting up just to prematurely switch out. Interruption Resistance is more valuable than Xiangling with him and that showcase proves it. Glad to see a team where Dehya has a legitimate role. She’s the perfect role consolidator and battery for Lyney.
i wasn't planning on pulling (except for freminet) cuz i told myself i wouldn't pull until xiao's rerun then when i tried him, i had so much fun so i pulled LMFAO was at 45 pity 50/50 23 pulls later, he came home and i RARELY win my 50/50s. now i have a pyro dps cuz the only dps' i have is heizou c7 and albedo c1. now all i need is freminet and i won't be pulling until 4.4
So much damage with so much sacrifices. Inflexible and basically stuck with mono pyro most of the time (especially with his BiS), obviously useless against pyro enemies (Natlan waving from the distance), quite long cooldowns (ain't gonna hit as much beyond first rotation) and gameplay that gets incredibly stale real quick. I think I've heard of this. Oh wait, it's Ganyu all over again.
Hi IWTL Dropping my usual comments for algorithm. Again, thanks for all your hard work all the time. Your reviews have always been my favorite since full constellation Klee.
For casual player, you don't have to farm for Marechaussee for Lyney unless you play him with Zhongli, just use mix 2pc. Even if you are playing with Zhongli, 2pc mix is still very good for better substats and flexibility.
I think the hydro archon is gonna make this team way too strong. 3 pyro characters with a big damage buffer likely in the hydro archon with the element that will allow this mono pyro team into a vaping team of destruction.
I agree, looking forward to see Lyney Bennett Kazuha and one strong hydro character. kzh swirling hydro on his ultimate and the hydro character giving off field application might be enough for this dude to surpass hutao HOPIUM
@bonkbonk98 Hu Tao I feel will get a massive power boost by the archon. If she gives an archon level boost in power plus if she has really good offfield hydro application and her kit works like people are saying Hu Tao might just get the largest buff from the archon. We will see.
Mobile player here: I usually am not a fan of bow characters due to the aiming mechanisms on mobile being a bit clunky.. However I’m really debating on getting Lyney due to how strong his charged attack is without other teammates buffing them. Also I like that the after shot leaves a cat that can taunt enemies better than Amber’s skill so it gives me time to charge my arrows. It seems the arrow can explode wherever it lands and causes AOE dmg, it can probably help with those challenges where you have to shoot the barriers quickly cause even if you miss the barrier by an inch, the arrow near it should blow it up & make it easier. I’m actually impressed by his kit but not sure if I should skip & prioritize Zhongli instead 🤔
just my random 2 cents, but if ur on mobile and are looking at it from a gameplay perspective mostly, maybe zhongli would be better since he would be easier to use on mobile? it's up to you to think anyway, just though i'd say what i was thinking
same. not really fond of bow chars on mobile phone. i did his trial, pulled because I need another dps specifically pyro, then came to actually love his playstyle and dmg he deals solo. now I'm trying to get used to playing bow as he is now my main. maybe you try him first then decide after based on how comfortable it is to play him and the dedication to get used to the bow.
All elemental characters have their own weakness against enemies of their same element, except physical. That's why all enemies has some degree of physical resistance because physical works on all elements.

The lyney mono pyro soon gonna be modest meta but still i wonder how lyney’s 5 star bow can go with ganyu
Quick question: Do you know how much of an increase Lyney's bow is to other bow users compared to their current options?
For a mono-pyro team that doesn’t focus on dmg multipliers via elemental reactions, I’m astonished at this raw dmg… bro’s magical for a reason
That’s because the insane 100% dmg bonus passive makes up for the lack of reactions
No shit, maybe because his kit is focused on mono pyro rather than reactions?

I have been running Ayato carry with ZL bennett and YJ for over 1 years with ZL using Petra clearing everything in 2-3 Ayato E with full buff of Petra, Bennet, YJ. It is not a problem at all as you only spend like half a second to get the crystal
@@putent96231. It's a mono pyro comp so it's at least easier to get pyro crystallized shards than reaction focused comps.
2. Strongbox is a thing
3. Petra set's 35% pyro dmg bonus is almost equivalent to a Kazuha buff (40% at 1k EM), his 20% res shred is half of viridescent set effect.
Zhongli is like a semi Kazuha to Lyney, no other shielder can give as much buffs like him specifically for crystallize-able mono comps.
Tbh, he looks fun but I think 4.1 will bring more fun characters
Is brings back geo daddy
Wriothesley is cryo heizou, main dps catalyst and uses punches. I really wanted him but I don’t like main dps’s who soak up time. I need more Quick-switch characters
@@potatothings7223literally my problem with almost every male DPS characters... They demand selfish playstyle which is annoying atp
I'm gonna wait for 4.1 gameplay leaks then I'll decide whether to pull lyney or not
@@potatothings7223and leaks saying he's a standard character (probs gonna get dehya treatment) not helping at all 😭
i just cant with the "premature explosions" 😭😭😭
I love Bow users to death, instantly pulled. He’s been super nice so far, and his passive of finding materials around Fontaine has been super useful. Not the biggest fan of the monopyro, so currently just running a Lyney, Yelan, Bennett, Kazuha.
It’s impressive how high the damage he can deal.
What’s the highest you’ve hit so far?
@@Yoongistangerinedealer
With Lyney? Nothing lmao, he isn't built at all yet. All I have on him atm is Aqua Simulacra and thats about it, cant find all the flowers needed for him, plus talents.
But running around and just throwing his cat everywhere is fun.
omg Lyney is sooooo good even though I haven't completed building him yet. I took him into spiral abyss just to test out with some slapped on artifacts and he was already doing impressive numbers. I cannot imagine how much of a beast he will be when I'm through building him. As a Ganyu main, I'm really enjoying his gameplay so far.
I tried his kit on trial and that is actually some insane dmg for a trial set. But I'm still gonna pull for yelan tho.
Obviously, she's much better character as in dps, support, utility 😂
@@why-xg2selyneys damage is cracked but yeah not worth as much as yelan she’s a suport sub dps
Both wrong, its coz shes mommy
@@statisticsonsteroidsfemboy >>>>>>>>>> cringe vaginahaver
THey better release a new Amber form after this, this is the first time they actually invalidated her kit by giving a character that does both things she is known for in one move
pulled him with the free gems from the update right after I pulled a c1 wanderer like 5 pulls after my first wanderer. Now I will save for the archon! So glad he's strong cant wait for Furina!
👏 👏 👏
I would love a lyney vs ganyu showdown
I can't believe I got satisfied over a guide video, all those rhyming just... chef kisses 😭😭
I've been playing mono cryo with Ayaka for a long time now, so I think Lyney's kit suits me perfectly! I didn't used any reaction before I got nahida anyway 😅
When you combine Dad jokes about magic and Doctor Seuss books with middle school humor about premature explosions...
It's crazy that these content creators are fast 😵💫😵💫
I believe he had beta access
I think it’s the media server they have access to.
i think they have an invitation to access the upcoming versions (more like beta testing) and only allowed to upload their content when it is time for the official release.
I'm shock when i see her lyney at level 90 and the talent my reaction was like wtf
0:29 is when he revealed his inner Shakespeare
Struggling between yelan and lyney and my future wallet for the rest of the fontaine cast 😞
I was almost tempted by the test run but I tend to pull for those I like more and I'm loving Neuvillette so far (although I'm not feeling his skill 😭)
He's like a combination of Ganyu and Tighnari
Three of them are my mains in their respective patches :x
@@binnbunnim bad at aiming, and that is why bow weapon is my less favorite but Tighnari have auto aim so i like it.
@@manoharalisa5829I'd say that my aim is decent but i like how i can shoot anywhere else when doing the barrel challenges. Tighnari cheats his way with his auto aim 🤣
Would you ever be able to do a Normal Attack damage showcase or tests for Lyney at all?
If his NA are doing around 5k with just his passive and without the full hayayumi buff, imagine what he would be doing with Rust, an NA oriented artifact set, and a mono pyro Yunjin team with Bennet and Xinyan.
He would be doing MUCH more. Perhaps his damage multiplier would also multiply the Yunjin buff?
I've never put him in a team with three pyro members, not paying attention to his passive... And he still good very good huehue
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT LYNEY, HES AMAZING
There's been a lot of comparison with Hu Tao and Lyney. I'm so interested for a Dps showdown
this is insane, charge atk with unoptimize build but hit 54k lmao
Sometimes, a premature explosion can just be a fun surprise for everyone!
I was expecting the comment section to overflow with these jokes ! IWTLose made soo many jokes about cat hat and premature explosions but no one noticed
I was becoming increasingly more concerned each time he mentioned either cats, hats, or the player prematurely exploding... IWTL truly has a diabolical side to him
i cannot beleive they finally made a good Pyro character for the first time since Hu Tao...
I feel the same tbh
Lyney vs Tighnari vs Ganyu expected
Soooo I just got Lyney. On a 50/50. Which I usually lose.
I am ecstatic, I am overjoyed, [insert more synonyms for extremely happy here] HE CAME HOME. (at wish 80 if you wanna know.)
Also won my 5050 at 80+ pulls
Tbh bennet+xiangling+sucrose/kazuha will make a lot of character perform well
Wish he wasn’t so restricted in terms of team comps because of those supports are in high demand.
can’t wait for the DPS showdown for this one
whenever that premature traveler pic popup i loled. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
lyney is so good and I have never enjoyed using a bow this much besides tighnari
I am definitely looking forward to see lyney vs ganyu showdown
The thing about ganyu is that she was made during the "how the fuck do I balance these characters" era of genshin, where we got some of the most busted, as well as some of the most underwhelming characters in the game in terms of performance.
Raw ganyu damage blasts lyney out of the water when played optimally, though this is balanced out by the fact that ganyu is so fucking atrocious to play that she inflicts a considerable amount of mental damage to the player for even considering the thought of using her
I want to use him with Benny/Xiangling/Lynette hopefully her taunt + the taunts from his cat spawning arrows should be enough to keep him from being constantly interrupted.
Content suggestion
Updated guide for albedo/ golden troupe vs husk for albedo
“Pat a fat cat in a hat in combat, ain’t that a fat strat” 😂😂
Gotta hold strong. All the great content creators said the same thing about Kirara when she dropped.
Kirara is a solid unit but yea she definitely wasn’t as great as people were trying to hype her to be
I have used kirara in every abyss since her release and she is very solid. If you dont know how to build characters it's not the character fault.
@@blazn0not bro getting passive aggressive when someone said Kirara is not as good as they hyped her to be 💀💀
@evanwang6384 I don't watch allot of reviews. I didn't even watch any of kirara pre or post release videos. But after building her she was a solid character.
So it's not even the hype. It's just that she is more than usable.
Use kirara in every abyss after her release in aggravate team,she better then yaoyao in comfort
I’m used to working with low tiers as mains (I’ll be a Chongyun main til the day I die) but I’m glad Lyney is actually a really good unit! Excited to build him!!
Cyno main here
Chongyun main here as well ✊️ you know all those hardwork you put in the low-tier bcs you wanna main them, and then when you move it to an actually good tier they become so so much OP 😂
@@fanasia204 Yes you're very right. I mean everyone says Cyno is bad and all... But my Cyno melts Teyvat 😭😂😂😂
We need to see Mono Pyro Lyney vs Mono Pyro Klee.
I'm so happy after saving for so long, I got him and his weapon early. Unfortunately I have to wait until tomorrow to get all his talent and weapon level up mats, but I'm not complaining 😅
Tempting character to pull tbh, I really like when a character is independent without the need to be support by specific characters.
But my will can't be shaken, Dehya visit me two previous banner ago.
So the brat hydro archon will 100% come home to me.
I hope I lose 50/50 to Dehya lol 🫶🏻
@@potatothings7223I just did, got Dehya before Yelan. Love her tho
Hes got a crowned lyney and im waiting for downtime to end scrolling through fonatiane gameplay on yt 😭
He's on a private server
@@forestshadow0918 I think he's just on NA or CN because ether update before us
@@jaydenking7408 Genshin comes back online at a synchronized time across all servers, and big content creators like IWTL are given access to a media server to make build guides before the units come out.
I’d like to know how the new craftable Fontaine bow and the Prototype Crescent would work on Lyney, compared to Hamayumi. Putting Stingless in might be interesting too!
So he's basically hutao and ganyu in one charecter
his damage is wild😭😭
The hats can also be screenshot. So it still gets prior buffs like Benny’s burst even after it ends and you explode it.
The fact that mono pyro has xiangling make his team dmg very high
Finally an effective use for Dehya
Fontaine is pure hp meta i think dehya is gonna be buffed like kuki got in 3.0
@@sehajbatala2212 theres no way that will happen. her kit doesnt even counter self hp drain
many fontaine can regenerate their own hp..so she’s end up not getting any major buff. Pkus, U need to delete zhongli
When her HP is less than 40%, Dehya will recover 20% of her Max HP and will restore 6% of her Max HP every 2s for the next 10s. This effect can be triggered once every 20s. @@leovu8500 this does sound like dehya would still be good for fontaine since it doesnt state that you have to be attacked under 40% to start the passive
Why is IWTL not doing any dps battle yet?
Thank you so much for the video! Just wondering, are you planning on doing your usual breakdown of best weapons, artifacts, and DMG showcase on diff bosses? ❤
6:30 rip my friend
I got Lyney just rn, with 0 pity and 50/50, i returned to genshin after half year and got some fates from some missions, so i pulled a 10x and i see its golden i was like "oh!, its alright if i lose the 50/50, i want mona or qiqi", and i see Lyney. I was like 💀
So you happy you got him or? 💀
You probably need to go offline for another half a year to get qiqi or mona. 💀
Powercreep is starting to get masive. Old character will need to have a re-work soon.
Powercreep is a must, we keep getting trash characters lately, especially the 4 stars. And no, Hu Tao still better for pyro main dps.
You call this a 5 star 😂
What power creep exactly are you talking about when Hu Tao still runs circles around him dps wise?
@@anniellusion Till what i know Hu Tao needs c1 and Staff off Homa to be usable. Zhongli too probably.
number 1 lyney fan approves
commenting on every lyney related video i find - vid 192
I also do prematurely explode my "hat cat" from time to time. It happens to everybody
WTF! It does hit harder than my Ganyu
That showcase was half of it Lyney getting staggered and the other half of it was wasting most of time setting up just to prematurely switch out. Interruption Resistance is more valuable than Xiangling with him and that showcase proves it. Glad to see a team where Dehya has a legitimate role. She’s the perfect role consolidator and battery for Lyney.
Hoyoverse doesn’t release useless characters, they always plan ahead. Dehya is going to become more important if the leaks are truee
@@potatothings7223Which leak?
Can you elaborate further?
A showdown against ganyu might be very interesting
i wasn't planning on pulling (except for freminet) cuz i told myself i wouldn't pull until xiao's rerun then when i tried him, i had so much fun so i pulled LMFAO was at 45 pity 50/50 23 pulls later, he came home and i RARELY win my 50/50s. now i have a pyro dps cuz the only dps' i have is heizou c7 and albedo c1. now all i need is freminet and i won't be pulling until 4.4
So much damage with so much sacrifices.
Inflexible and basically stuck with mono pyro most of the time (especially with his BiS), obviously useless against pyro enemies (Natlan waving from the distance), quite long cooldowns (ain't gonna hit as much beyond first rotation) and gameplay that gets incredibly stale real quick.
I think I've heard of this.
Oh wait, it's Ganyu all over again.
What? Ganyu is one of the most flexible DPS characters there is
Ganyu has fallen in charge shot damage
Hi IWTL
Dropping my usual comments for algorithm. Again, thanks for all your hard work all the time. Your reviews have always been my favorite since full constellation Klee.
For casual player, you don't have to farm for Marechaussee for Lyney unless you play him with Zhongli, just use mix 2pc. Even if you are playing with Zhongli, 2pc mix is still very good for better substats and flexibility.
I think the hydro archon is gonna make this team way too strong. 3 pyro characters with a big damage buffer likely in the hydro archon with the element that will allow this mono pyro team into a vaping team of destruction.
I agree, looking forward to see Lyney Bennett Kazuha and one strong hydro character. kzh swirling hydro on his ultimate and the hydro character giving off field application might be enough for this dude to surpass hutao HOPIUM
nvm I forgot lyney doesnt get dmg bonus if enemy affected by hydro
@bonkbonk98 Hu Tao I feel will get a massive power boost by the archon. If she gives an archon level boost in power plus if she has really good offfield hydro application and her kit works like people are saying Hu Tao might just get the largest buff from the archon. We will see.
Everyone refrain from pulling him because he's weak, I pull for him because he's husbando 😌
AGREE
Your pat-fat-hat-cat poetics are even more impressive than Lyney himself.
i just pulled him along with dehya and Bennett and his weapon they really want me to use mono pyro 😂
He is no better then Hu Tao I personally would never pull him and he is definitely not premature 😂😂😂
(I’m playing mobile!)
DONT BLINK BECAUSE YOULL MISS IT GAHDAYUM THE HEALTHBARS DISAPPEAR LIKE A MAGIC TRICK
My HT is finally able to not get absolutely clapped in the next abyss, yay
Mobile player here: I usually am not a fan of bow characters due to the aiming mechanisms on mobile being a bit clunky.. However I’m really debating on getting Lyney due to how strong his charged attack is without other teammates buffing them. Also I like that the after shot leaves a cat that can taunt enemies better than Amber’s skill so it gives me time to charge my arrows. It seems the arrow can explode wherever it lands and causes AOE dmg, it can probably help with those challenges where you have to shoot the barriers quickly cause even if you miss the barrier by an inch, the arrow near it should blow it up & make it easier. I’m actually impressed by his kit but not sure if I should skip & prioritize Zhongli instead 🤔
just my random 2 cents, but if ur on mobile and are looking at it from a gameplay perspective mostly, maybe zhongli would be better since he would be easier to use on mobile? it's up to you to think anyway, just though i'd say what i was thinking
auto aim comes in cltch when playing tigh, and lyney
same. not really fond of bow chars on mobile phone. i did his trial, pulled because I need another dps specifically pyro, then came to actually love his playstyle and dmg he deals solo. now I'm trying to get used to playing bow as he is now my main. maybe you try him first then decide after based on how comfortable it is to play him and the dedication to get used to the bow.
Won my 3rd 50/50 on him lol , I'm glad i got him and now i can finally save up for furina.
Bro how fast i even still got lost walking aroud 😭
Thank you for the MANY hours that script must have taken to write.
He's better than I expected and I'm actually considering building him now.
Hoyo released relatively simple mechanic characters early on and now they start making those mechanical movement type characters later on
All elemental characters have their own weakness against enemies of their same element, except physical. That's why all enemies has some degree of physical resistance because physical works on all elements.
