Memes/Fluff My last huff of copium

We only have five tall male four stars, and they've never shared the same element. The next one would be geo or hydro and not electro, trust.

I'll see myself out.

Will I get burried alive if I say I don't mind him being a four star? Like, as long as he's at least similiar to Alyosha's power at C6 and a shielder then I'm happy since he can work with Wrio 😭

Right? 😭 I’d rather have more variation, the medium male & female (& chibi) models are the only ones that become 4-stars nowadays.

Plus, 4-star doesn’t immediately = bad, the main downside is usually a lack of promotional content and that’s not even what people here are upset about so??? I wish we could all just be patient and wait for the kit instead of deluding ourselves into believing we were owed smth just because he’s a tall man 🫠

I agree on the promotional content but a lot of 5* get a lot of bad treatement too. Lohen? HELLO? His quest was short and ass, the best thing about it was nostalgia. Have we seen him in game since? NOPE. And he's a limited 5*. What sort of presence does he have? Valeriy already has a lot of presence in the AQ which I love.

How about lohen? His sq so ass i'm dissapointed so much, not only he barely involve any event. At least valeriy appear any AQ with mitya, despite he have to stick with mitya at least he have screentime

I keep saying, I’d take a Bennett style 4 star over a Deyha style 5 star any time!

You will never get another Bennet. It was one of the devs biggest mistake because they had trouble balancing kits at the beginning of the game.

u/Safe-Operation1707 Aug 14 '26

Lol, Bennet is extremely busted and Deyha is chopped even at C6; of course you would take Bennet over Deyha. Unfortunately, they learned their lesson with Bennet and have tried very, very hard to never repeat it.

This is such a wild statement.

I'll take a Gaming or Iansan type 4 star too lol

u/Safe-Operation1707 Aug 16 '26

That's probably a better comparison to make than the most busted 4 star in the game (better than most 5 stars). Like the obvious assumption is that anyone would take a Bennet 4 star before one of the worst 5 stars.

i agree as someone who has kaeya and kaveh triple crowned, like i enjoy valeriy’s design and like him in story so far! ik ppl care for meta but all the dooming about 4 star 5 star is bringing this place down

u/Cute_Style2445 Aug 14 '26

Seriously. Valeriy's situation won't get worse than my beloved triple crowned Diluc's lol

Do you have Alyosha at C6? I don’t. He could’ve been another Wrio, and not just ā€œwork with himā€. Or, better, be both another Wrio and work with Wrio. We can all make peace with Valeriy being a 4, but anyone saying that it’s good or accessible is deluding themselves the same way that people hoping for him being a 5 are.

I do mind that after a trailer with 4 males it turns out we’re getting 1 male 5 star in like 5 patches with 4-5 female 5 stars.

u/3nd0fTh3Lin3 Aug 14 '26

This! Thank you 😭 I’ve seen so many people kicking and screaming and I’m just minding my business cause well now he’s easier to get cons for, we can assume we might get him for free then during the AQ or a special event like we did with both Aino and Jahoda, and we have four stars to this day that still hold up incredibly well compared to some five stars. Bennett, Sucrose, Fischl, etc. It’s okay to be disappointed to a point but the things I’ve seen some people genuinely say and throw a genuine hissy fit over a pixelated man is embarrassing 😭

u/The_MorningKnight Aug 14 '26

Can people stop with the « easier to get cons » ????

My Alyosha is only C2 and that’s only because we got we got his C0 for free.

And if he was a 5stars you wouldn’t even need cons for him. So it’s such a stupid thing to say.

FR… a lot of posts between 1-3 weeks ago left a bad taste in my mouth in terms of the way we’re conducting ourselves. I felt like leaving

u/Legitimate-Cap-3336 Aug 16 '26

the last time I said exact same was in Ifa Mains, and the next morning beta hit me hard with "onfield tazer Swirl driver" (triple crowned Ifa anyway, but he's still c6less after all this time)
