Now that we're entering verison 4 of Genshin Impact, I wanted to make a fun tier list video on all the characters released in version 1 to see where they stand: if they're still good, no longer good, or were never good! (Reminder this is all for fun, please do not take this as objective fact)

The thing about power 5 is that 4/4 of them are off-fielders who are gods at their roles, the only one I can see being removed is Sucrose due to her role being an on-fielder, everyone else would love to have a 2nd XL/Benny/Fiscl in their team

I would like a 2.0 review since Inazuma is my favorite generation of 5-stars. Three years in, I don't think Hoyo has a clear idea of what they want 4-stars to be. They over tuned many initially, then under powered them and now they are either C6 dependent or heavily niche.

Yanfei is fantastic in Burgeon, quite frankly. So if anyone wants to use her but not sure how, that's what I'd go with. My team with her is Nahida, Yelan/Xingqiu, Kokomi. And fun fact, this team absolutely bullies the Iniquitous Baptist. I'd put her in niche, but that's just me That said, I really do think Lisa and Razor should be in Niche. Lisa's got decent dendro teams and works really well as an Electro unit for Alhaitham's spread teams (Yae is better and Fischl won't trigger her A4 with spread), and Thundering Furry is a legit team comp (as weird as it is)
@KHFreack
@KHFreack 7 месяцев назад
you could say that any pyro or electro unit by virtue of burgeon and hyperbloom have a reason to be used. hell even dehya works well in a curry team sure she isnt the main focus but having a defensive non burst reliant option for offield pyro apply has alot of value,might become more useful with neuvi for the interupt resist or maybe even furina if she can make blooms happen during dehya burst,but lets not get ahead of time. so unless your name is xinyan you can always be used in blooms teams so niche exists for em. how good they be in said one.that depends on the account i guess.

I mean, Vars never said Noelle can't be used or that she hasn't receieved buffs. She has a solid kit and is not un-useable, but is put in the "benched" category on account of how she performs relative to her competition (aka Itto). She is basically a decent early game character for her role consolidation of DPS and Tank, but in the endgame, that role consolidation isn't as valued compared to just getting more damage (especially since mono geo is already a tanky team since you're building most of the characters there with DEF anyway). So, while I think your argument is valid, it's not something already not addressed by Vars in this video.

As an Elegy haver I find myself using Venti more often than Sucrose, even on bosses - although, that's partly due to having a balanced crit/atk build on him with 300-ish EM on top. And as for a C6 Noelle vs C0 Itto the energy management for Noelle is such a problem that she's barely playable with my Itto's gear, and Zhongli and Gorou on Favonius. I also haven't levelled her talents too much, with her having lvl 4-5 talents, but she does the same damage my Itto at lvl 8-9 talents...the only caveat being that her damage is like that with full buffs and his is with no buffs whatsoever

Noelle is the best at what she is; a one maid army. To my knowledge, there isn’t another character in the game that covers as much utility as she does as well as she does. She's one of the few characters that's just flat out hard to kill in combat. Her shield trivializes encounters, her DPS clears crowds easily and will usually outlast them, and she heals the rest of the party while doing so. The other three slots on her roster consist of solving problems with Geo as an insular element to me. Figure out a way to break your target shield, and you're good to go. The other interesting thing about her is that she grows with an account in ways that make sense. She starts out a shield or healer because of limited initial options (stick her in Maiden Beloved on a fresh account and never die), and grows into a DPS swiss army knife as you get access to new artifacts and weapons (Husk and Whiteblind/Redhorn).

Great list - good that you realised that Childe is God Tier after the video. I only just got him despite first installing Genshin in 1.1 and I feel like I've been misled about his true power level this whole time by content creators. He is absolutely broken - I've 36* the current Abyss with him at lvl 69 6/6/6 and I know almost nothing about his optimal rotations (didn't even bother double-swirling) Just a little harsh on Lisa and Ningguan. Ningguan is completely fine for killing the wolflord which is the only reason why Geo exists in this game. And Lisa is decent in Aggravate/Spread teams (she can set up reactions for Alhaitham with Ult or trigger Fischl's A4 passive by on-fielding)

Anemo MC is actually really good. Anemo because of VV is incredibly broken, and his C6 increases that Shred even more. Other than that, their grouping is really solid, their burst only costs 60, and their c2 increases their ER. Anemo mc is an overall great character. However; the existance of Sucrose, Kazuha and Venti raised the bar for anemo support so much that if future characters aren't just a straight upgrades to them, they will be worse in almost all situations. This is also the case for Heizou, who is a great character, but everyone else is just basically better. The only reason you would actually play them if you need Sucrose on the second side of abyss and you're Kazuhaless. My point is, AMC was not "never good", but benched since the beginning.

I'd personally argue that Razor is in the niche category strictly for the existence of the "Thundering Furry" comp. Razor, Nahida, Xingqiu, and C6 Bennett allows for a flurry of a lot of different reactions in rapid order that can do very respectable damage, and the only reason why this works so well on *him* specifically is due to the unique nature of his own burst where he doesn't override his attacks to a new element like other characters, but instead has his respective element attack in tandem with his own NAs, meaning he's efffectively the only unit who can make his own NAs 2 different elements. While his own damage..... exists.... his ability to enable reactive damage in a comp like this one specifically is fairly strong. (And if you substitute Nahida out for Dendro MC it's still fairly strong and becomes a bit more f2p.) Another potential comp you can utilize out of him for the same reason, (though not necessarily as affectively because Xingqiu's hydro application is already absurd) includes Razor, Nahida (DMC), Candace, and either another dendro unit or hydro unit here depending on what kind of application you're lacking, such as Xingqiu or Yaoyao.

Very first clear of abyss was with Ningguang-Noelle combo team. It was pretty fun experience with Damage\Sustain potential of this combo. Ningguang, despite being 4*, can dish out pretty impressive damage. But when you are talking about Geo element characters - it is always a matter of single element capabilities. Where other elements have have elemental reactions to push their damage limits even further, Geo - can rely only on itself. That is why units like Itto stand out so much. Since "Dendro Impact" last hope for some meaningful element improvement for Geo is gone, tbh it feels like there is no point in any new Geo characters at this point, because their viability for players by default is lower then any other options.

Kinda crazy just how uninspired Genshin Impact players and content creators are when it comes to old or supposedly underwhelming characters. I've seen one person use Diluc in a Nahida, Barbara and Layla team to Burgeon, Vape AND Burn with great results. Diluc is still good. As are Jean, Lisa, Kaeya and Chongyun just for an example. Anemo Traveler may be niche and their Burst is genuinely awful but their ability to suck up Dendro cores and CC small enemies let them hyper focus Hyperbloom damage and Swirl to great effect in general. Just don't use them with Burning anywhere unless you want them to instantly get deleted. Geo Traveler still being this undervalued is absolutely insane to me. Their skill has great damage on top of generating Geo particles. Their burst also deals solid damage on top of the passive +10% Crit Chance. You can slot them in Mono Geo and they'll do their job just fine. Mona is still definitely very powerful. People forget her dash applies Hydro which is capable of Vaping and generating Dendro cores to Burgeon on top of her skill and Burst still being good. She works very well with Xinyan's shield pulse. Kokomi is NOT a straight up replacement for Barbara. This is just an extremely narrow way of seeing these characters. Barbara applies CONSTANT Wet status with her skill. Kokomi only applies once per jellyfish pulse. They each have their own use. Main difference is having to be near the enemies with Barbara which is something the aforementioned Diluc team wants to do. Honestly the only characters on this list that I'd consider underwhelming or simply not worth investing in is Qiqi and even then Qiqi's healing is still a solid positive as much as people say healing isn't a good thing in Genshin. Her lack of energy generation is her biggest downside. And yes even Aloy can be solid Burst DPS like Chongyun while Chongyun has his Burst DPS role plus his cooldown reduction support. And yes even Amber can be strong. It does require her constellations but she can be strong. Chasing the meta is fun and all but if all it does is make people look down on the non-meta characters then where is the fun? Trying out new or underutilized set ups is also part of what makes these kinds of games great.

Thank you so much for putting Venti in God Carry. He's always been crazy good, and just because abyss doesn't have as many light enemies anymore doesn't mean that he doesn't still dumpster all overworld and domain content

I’d very much argue for Ningguang to be in benched. Her damage always surpassed razors and it wasn’t just a gimmick. I’d also say xiao should be moved up a tier. His plunge attack dps isn’t just a gimmick it’s how he does damage it doesn’t fundamentally change anything about how the damage is being dealt like nilou for example. It’s like saying ganyu is a gimmick cause she does charge attacks

this mostly tracks for me, id say ningguang was more benched than never good. she was my carry for early game f12 spiral abyss, and she did her job well enough pre inazuma. what benched her was geo moving into def scaling characters which she ostensibly is not. i would also place venti down into pretty good simply because his application as a grouper has little use in floors 11-12 usually, since hoyo has been in the habit of placing heavy/boss level enemies in there that are immune to getting sucked inside of his burst. but yes, when venti does work, hes godly.

Imma be honest while lisa was never good before dendro she was still ok enough to work well in f2p taser teams But post dendro Shes just an aggravate monster for her class as she out dpses cyni and yae (which is still pretty mid but a solid spot nonetheless). She also can enable hob prtty well because of her burst snapshotting en buffs

You’re right on several counts. But far from all of them! Mona is still IMMENSELY useful as a damage buffer and hydro applier. On top of other miscellaneous uses. She fits into many teams easily. And Noelle. Dude. It kills me how few people actually know her worth. She has a shield that can rival the Archon’s. Can heal. And can do damage on-field as much as any other DPS. What’s not to like. There are a few other characters I take issue with, but those were the 1st two that really jumped out at me… I suppose it always depends on you available roster, how well you have built the character in question, your needs, and your experience.

Of course my main is the first to be benched 😂😂 Can't complain tho cuz chongyun was mentioned that's good enough for me 😂😂 I agree with Klee being in "Niche". I'd benched her for a while but decided to bring her out for the summer event, and honestly pairing her with Kazuha, Kokomi and Tighnari is *stupid fun* if you don't wanna go mono-pyro. Kazuha can just suck up all the bloom cores *and* Klee's bombs so it's a blast lol ❤ Very much looking forward to your video on the Power 5!

okey i was good with everything, even tho i think jean for being an anemo suport sould beat least one tier higher but it was good.... but lisa in "never good" she is realley good for physical team, some taser but now that we have aggravete and hyperbloom she is honestly really good, hyperbloom or aggravete + her def sherd.... she is better than kaeya at least, is not god tier but she works really good with dendro and other electro characther.... everyone talks about kaeya and forget miss lisa.... (and rosaria is also better than kaeya unless you don't want to stay in one place and want to move around, but there best use case is permaforst so...) all the other i think the same, i love u ninguang but geo is just not good...

Hard disagree on Razor. How the devs intended for a character to be used is irrelevant and a stupid argument if the character happens to be better in another really good role. Its not a Hyperbloom Eula or Tankfei situation, all of Razor's kit focus on dealing electro damage, the only reason you can play him physical is his ascension stat. Pretty dumb that this was your argument when you also make League content and it happened multiple times that Riot designed a unit for one role,only for them to be more suited for another one after player testing. I also disagree on Venti. He fits more on the extremly niche but I would put him on still good because the niche comes relatively often. He is the best option when the situation calls for him, but Hoyo has changed the entire enemy design to counter him.

What you said about Zhongli is how I feel about Mona (time spending on field talking away overall DPS) I have cleared floors just as fast when not swapping to her as a A/B comparison Yanefi is niche for where you need pyro app sometimes and Yoimiya can't seem to do it I found. Scara boss and Raiden boss are 2 examples where Yanefi can pop the things needed where Yoimiya falls short and gets killed But end of the day the game is all about personal choices and who you have/like using. I prefer to play fun characters but also mix it up when needed. Sometimes playing with trash artifact/weapons to make the game harder.

Ranking the characters: Jean: Good for exploration in a team with another anemo user, go fast, heal and even get get some good CC. Mona: Good for big damage, sadly in abyss that doesn't work a lot, she's also good for exploring. Qiqi: Do I need to say something bad? She's... Barbara without the freeze, easy to build, but only does that, heal. Dehya: From 0 to 1, no zero to hero, she's not good in c0 and in c6 she's "ok" Diluc: The equivalent to Sega's relevancy after the console wars, man fell hard. Tighnari: Decent to good. Keqing: The ACTUAL zero to hero, god bless Dendro. If Genshin gave us a free standard character to start the game with OR in the anniversary, that wouldn't push us to never pull for limited characters anymore, they are mid or good, but not godlike like other units like Kazuha or Tao.

Sucrose being the least used of power 5 is understandable considering how bad it feels to play her as support(her driver playstyle is fun). Her grouping SUCKS(or doesnt suck in this context) her E has very small AoE grouping and the burst despite having big AoE barely pulls enemies. And since both E and Q aims the closest enemy she randomly rotates 180° and aims at wall where there is one enemy. And she used long a$$ time when using her E and just stands there, enough time for a beast to kill her off. She may provide more buffs than Kazuha but she brings way more cons than pros in actual gameplay compared to him.
