The Guards are attempting to balance out Frostleaf's shortcomings with sheer numbers.
The truth hurts...
Inb4 we got Frostleaf alter titled "Frostleaf the Winter Wounds"
Spoilers for IS-3 and the Skadi-Alternate Timeline
Soon they'll have to compensate for my boy Thorns dying as well 😭
Someone explain?
Yeah they've gotta be bad to balance out the strength of Frostleaf!
Guards are always the key for everything.
Wanna do massive DMG? Use Guards
Wanna block so many enemies? Use Guards
Want to kill bosses faster? Use Guards
Want to take out ariel units? Use Guards
Want to bait or stall the enemies? Use Guards
It's like the square hole thing
the square hole
oh god
You might've not enjoyed the classic movie but you didnt have to hate on Ariel like that, damn
guard can't heal other :)
Guard now needs an operator who can heal allies and it will actually be jack-of-all-trades class.

The fumo lore is ever expanding, man, how much do I love those skits
Because guardknights reign supreme
People complained about guard Ch'en being left behind, so HG killed her with Chalter and double tapped her again with Irene
She can delete bosses with attack buffs, because her S3 makes her invulnerable in the process. I think only forced retreat attacks work on her then.
Source: deleted Emperor's Blade without...too much issues. Because she had to charge her skill before the EB arrives, she had to block two other enemies, and her S3 prioritizes the closest enemies first. She still brought the EB down to a few hits left, and the EB wasn't able to use their forced retreat attack in time.
Basically, if she can unleash her S3 on one target, with at least one attack buff (Warfarin, Aak, etc.), she can take on most bosses because that's *TEN* attacks on a single target, with a guaranteed stun at the end if they're affected by it.
@@eveakane6563 bro, I have an Pot5 M6 Ch'en, and I've been deleting bosses with her whenever possible. I just hate the way HG handles balancing with each future release and wanted to make a joke.
@@eveakane6563 More than that, she's untargetable. So even enemies with forced retreat won't do anything to her unless they're hitting the tile rather than the op, like Frostnova's black ice.
@@MrB10N1CLE so.. how is she now? Does she still good in the current meta? I have her e2 with no mastery but i doubt that she will be a game changing operator in the future
@@NA-Unmei She's an untargetable single-target delete button. M3 her S3 if you want to have some fun doing that. In that sense, she is not meta but very good at her niche. Her S2 nuke isn't "game changing" but satisfying as hell to play with a meme comp
Yii is my favorite 6* guard
He's only popular because he's meta..
Yii's 3rd skill is probably
Immediately recover all HP. ATK +330%, Attack Range +2 tiles, attack target count +3, Max HP +5000. Gradually lose HP (HP loss percentage continually increases, capping at 20% Max HP/second after 60 seconds). Infinite duration
You mean master yi ?
That's why they added the Doll Keeper archetype, to add more guards.
Gotta thank you and zafang for hyping up ch'en i always that she was a low tier operator, but after your moody blues video and zafangs ch'en video I decided to build her and she's cracked (way more fun to use than chalter). Ch'en was one of my main operators for beating ex wd 8 CM. Can't wait for Irene so she and ch'en can double team bosses
np bro always happy to coerce people into making very questionable meta decisions
I love Chen. She's the only operator I got to max pot for free.
had chen at e1 max for the longest time, and only promoted her months ago, gonna say she is fun
Welp, doesn't need to. I'm simp for chen after all. (Way back from march 2020 duh)
What about amiya guard? Trio them and absolute destructiom
Why would we bother arguing?
Just use all of them(Ch'en, Irene, guard Amiya)
*I AM MOTIVATED*
Your portal opening days are over pogmiya, hand over the fumo.
@@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong If you want it, you have to take it
Foolishness, Boku wa L0licon. Foolishness... Mr. Steal Your Arm would never use Irene
The problem is getting all 3 of them... because "I will NEVER pay"
@@Jukantos"Tax evasion is a crime Inquisitor Irene"
I do like Surtr's s1 actually, and use her for consistant damage. She basically gets just over 2x damage on m3... but then you can also skill battery her for even more.
My favorite thing about Arknights is that it's designed in such a way that you can make so many different strategies work based on personal preference. I love Irene as a character but Ch'en is my favorite character and favorite guard to use, and I'm salty about the whole thing so I will probably build Irene more to hold for situations where Ch'en can't do what I need rather than to replace her.
True dat. There surely are a dozen (if not by the dozens) ways to clear a map. Not only with tactics, but also with a highly different squad each time. It might be tight here and there, but most of the time you can even squeeze your favorite operator in there, even if they totally suck.
What gacha games have taught me is that whenever there are 2 units that do more or less the same thing they work amazingly together. Deploy Chen and Irene together which will also help Irene get her skill fast af, buff them both with whoever, delete boss.
Does this also aply with SA and mostima
@@nguyendanhbang11a26 SCHWING SCHWING ITENSIFIES
@@nguyendanhbang11a26 Theoretically yes, but on execution now. They are both sweepers so you're using them to clear a bunch of weak / medium strength enemies and youll most likely not need them both to do this. Unless you are using them to damage a boss together which is worse than just using 2 other good boss killers, there's less of a reason to use them both as 1 does physical and 1 does arts, use whichever is needed. A Different example of duo ops that work well together but are similar are Pozy and Schwarz.
@@Bittexu i meant i don't have any boss killer so this might just work
@@nguyendanhbang11a26 no because mostima sucks, try SA and Mlynar
despite how versatile guards are, its actually amazing how outclass frostleaf is compare to her own classes (heck even midnight is better than her) at least brawlers have somewhat of an advantage over others from their cheap DP cost
Frostleaf is the best example of HG overbalancing their early ops
"Here's free range extension for her at E2, but she gets even worser stats as the result"
meanwhile, now you have Thorns having to keep his anti-air sniper range as a lord guard with DOUBLE THE STAT BUFFS by pressing his S3 twice
@@LeinRa-Reaction there's no "overbalancing" of early ops she's just straight up poorly designed, SA and Lappland are day 1 guards as well and are still very relevant to this day lol
My day was pretty cool, thanks a lot mr editor
5:34 The source for a lot of ch'enanigans
cant wait to see the continued adventures of amila (seriously tho i love the little sketches in your vids)
the usage of Risk of Rain's OST is so based that even if yii arknights goes off the deep end and makes a surtr segment last more than 7 seconds i'd still watch it for the banger tunes
I only recently got Chen and have since E2'd her. Wasnt aware of the invulnerability frames on her S3, will keep it in mind 👍
High five if you also bought her from the yellow certs store to craft THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING
@@Jukantos i was too broke to buy her with certs at the time, just rolled a bunch on her banner! Thankfully she came home!
@@tiaanmoller1508 Lucky you, but now you might be short on pulls for the upcoming BANGERS Horn and Specalter / Irene...
Also save your certs, we have some stupidly good stuff coming to the certs store soon
Eunectes = Sep 30th
Surtr = November 11th
Blemishine = December 23rd
Mudrock = February 3rd
Mountain = March 17th
Eunectes is admittedly about to leave but it's worth saving for Surtr and/or the Blemishin + Mudrock power couple.
@@Jukantos i dont mind missing out on ops, I just build what I have and characters I like. Mountain and Surtr would be quite nice to have though.
Remember her next time they give us another boss with some "does annoying bullshit on HP %" gimmick. Emperor's Blade, Degenbrecher, and Andouin all become so much easier with her, and I doubt it's the last time we'll see bosses with those mechanics.
My day is great thank you for asking :)
Thanks for the video!!
My day is going fine Mr. Editor, hope you're having a good one too ^^
The Amiyapog Saga continues...
Man i love your videos and the fucking cage sound scared the shit out of me.
my day is good thanks for asking
Love the font, it's simple and easy to read
Nice video dude
3:39
Man i mostly ignore those mini sketches in the middle of your videos, but THIS PART fucking killed me.
Great tips now only if I could get the guards mentioned in this video
Ngl would definitely go for a much longer, more in-depth video. Since it dropped off fast from the titles presumed question, and devolved into a semi comprehensive overview of just a few guards. (Maybe I'm viewing it as a potential question? I was kinda hoping it was another semi rant/ things I dislike about arknights type of video. You do surprisingly well with those for entertainment/information gathering).
also better or not, Irene will just stand alongside Ch'en, in all their glory~
MORE RISK OF RAIN MUSIC 😍😍
We all know the best guard is Mon3tr
Does mon3tr benefit from that IS2 relic that boosts summoned units atk by 50%?
@@newCoCoY6 I think the relic mentions only summoned units from supporters
The ship event is here. From now on, Chen's use will is to charge up Irene's S3.
Yii: "Why are you here?"
Amilla: *Calm*
Yii: "Also we want the fumo back"
Amilla: *Not calm*
I need me a full compilation of this fumo arc in one big video
Me when the amila pogs:
surtr is certainly one of the 6* guards to exist.
also I wonder how good kal'tsit's tacos are.
Babe wake up Yii posted!!
Even though Surtr's S3 is her go-to skill and for good reason, S1 and S2 shouldn't just be entirely neglected.
Sometimes you simply don't want to deal with the long redeployment timer or don't need her to nuke a boss.
Her other skills can be pretty overpowered as well in the right circumstances. Especially considering their short (or nonexistent) downtime.
her other skills are just not needed, you can use plenty other ops for similar practicality her other skills offer.
it's a matter of "Do I really want or need her for her other skills? nah, her S3 is her only unique gameplay"
not really a meta pick but Surtr S2 creates a pretty sick phalanx tactic with liskarm, pretty fun to use.
not using her skill 3 makes her death talent useless and reliant on a loss condition so nah
@@Lotvk And why exactly is that? Why can't we just think of that talent as a lifeline for a few more attacks instead of something that you absolutely have to make use of? What about Blaze's talent? If I'm not spamming s3 until she loses enough HP to activate her talent does that mean I'm making the talent useless?
@@thanoof I’m sorry that happened please have a good day
Wonder what guard branch yii belongs to
Obviously the vanGUARD.
No matter which universe Amyiapog and her versions come from, the moments fumos are mentioned the gloves come off xd
Love the skadi segment
I appreciate the very simple explanation for Surtr. Less brain cells lost
Psalm 37:13 - But the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming
amiya pog
I see someone's been playing a lot of Risk of Rain 2 pog
(or just discovered the sick OST, that's pog too)
WHY NOT BOTH? Chen and Irene awesome
as much as i worship irene, ch'en is an incredibly fun unit and i really hope to get her someday.
hue hue hue, Amila
Supreme
Oh god
Nearl's 2nd skill saved my amateur ass so many times, I stopped counting
Only thanks to it i was able to R18 downseeker CC
And many more stages included her as emergency button, which made even most failed(by me) stages a cake walk
Same,
I am too smooth brained to plan out this stage correctly . . . . DEPLOY THE NTR BOMB!
I love the story' more than the video topic
30k Celebration when.
I would like to say that the situations when Ch'en outdamages Irene come up more commonly that you would think. In an ideal scenario where there are always enemies to attack, Irene will always win - However, this is normally not the case.
Since Ch'en's module basically grants herself a pemanent 0.66 attack SP generation per second, she's almost comparable with normal recovery skills. Her S3 only takes 15 seconds (same as Silverash) to helidrop - without needing a single enemy to attack. Irene, on the other hand, needs to attack an enemy to charge her skill up first.
Ch'en will deal more damage if the map has notable wave downtimes, or when you can't afford to charge her skill up with fodder enemies first. The most determinant factor when choosing between Ch'en and Irene is whether you need AoE or not - If you do, definetly go for Irene. However, take care: Irene's S3 targetting can cause her to lose damage when attacking enemies away from your main target.
All in all, I wouldn't say that Irene killed Ch'en. As a matter of fact, I would say that both operators compliment each other quite well, and are both worth building in their own ways.
I’ve been saving for awhile to get Irene.
can't wait for the sequel "yii fucking dies (again) #3"
The Yii-lore deepens.
Amiyapog in depth analysis when? You got a degree in it, now show us.
Glad to see another 'Metal pipe falling sound' enjoyer
watching this for the plot. but the analysis is good too ig
Love the risk of rain 2 references lol
*THE PORTAL-MIYA FIGHTS BACK*
WILL YII SURVIVES
Tune in next time on Yii-Arknights
On another note, Ch'en Awesome does has her own niche.
*Speedrunning*
Any Boss, give her big buff, let her rip
*Done*
she's also great in 1p relays
Irene is just better for that Yii explained at the end
@@dragichav2810 nah Irene problem is random hit and chage sp by attack
Cant wait for shining's guard alter
yii hooked on risk of rain
Totally off topic
I'm just happy to hear coalescence here risk of rain music slaps
5:31 HOLY SHIT YII ARKNIGHTS PLAYS ROR2? POG
Nearl S3 also pairs really really well with Aak buff, the defence boost makes her living through it way less sketchy and she does SO MUCH damage under it
Babe wake up, the Amiya Fumo saga is continuing
I only came here for Pogmiya: Multiverse Madness. I demand more screen time of that sequel or i will stole your Fumo. This is not a drill!!
i did some math, if Ch'en and Irene are constantly attacking it takes 26,4 seconds got Irene to charge her S3, while it takes 31,5 seconds for Ch'en to charge her S3
if Ch'en has he module maxed out it takes 16,3 seconds
They Irene and Chen debate just told me to use them both at the same time to cover bothe their bases
Make an analysis video of both chalter and surtr. I'll totally watch all 1 minute of it.
There goes my plan of leveling up Ch'en.
That Risk of rain music though.
Guard are the jack of all trade class
holy shit its coalesence
It's a good way to just increas the probability that what ever happend you will have basic 6 star guard or opening because imagine if evrything is 50/50 againts supports
yes
cherene awesome
Yeah i did that shit with Ch'en against emperor's blade but now i see Suzuran was overkill, i have a video for it in my channel.
Yiiarknights lore video when
Amila fumo plush when
I see Yii got big into ror2 lol
Huh. Only so much a cage can do I suppose.
Ohno she has a gun, Irene too
Loving all of the risk of rain 2 references here
Why are there so many?
Because SWORDS!
"I know a lot of you struggled with Emperor's Blade" Meanwhile me just using Silverash twice.
We need more 6* Gaurds
Based take
i disagree.
i think we need a 3rd 6* lord 👍
based and redpilled
Fun fact, Apparently the next limited operator is actually going to be a guard, and apparently it’s Texas alter
Ch'en Supremacy, sometimes
Look at the bright side, there's enough 6* guards to give you content until at least 2023
Hello, just a quick question :
I am on my 2nd months of playing AK, so far i only have exu, bagpipe, and mostima as my 6 stars
should i pull for horn, or wait for irene ?
Wait
horn for sure
You’ll get free pulls for pulling from Irene anyways. I’d recommend pulling for Horn since she’s more versatile, though it might take a while to get used to her funky range :)
@@HiImYii thanks, i will do 🙏
@@HiImYii so I did 100 pulls with 3 six stars operators result but none of them is horn 😂😂😂
Should I stop ?
monkaW
Risk of Rain has a great sound track.
Can u explain modules too? I haven’t understood them that much
Cause we are...... The Arknights...
How well does Irene compare to Ch'en when dealing with enemies immune to levitate?
The loss of the guaranteed -50% def down to 50% chance on every hit sounds like an rng nightmare for bursting down beefy enemies.
Also am a bit curious if the initial big hit of her S3 is still subject to that 50% for a def down, because the description makes it sounds like she only levitates (and triggers her 100% passive) after that.
i somehow got more invested in amela story lmao
I refuse to play guard chen til they give us the dripped suit version from chp11 as a skin.
cant w8 for irene to -become a seaborn- come home
Pepelaugh 3.5 aniv leaks says its texas alter which is a lord guard
You only needs Guards.
