DPS Showdown! Hu Tao vs Ganyu - Who is the DPS QUEEN of Genshin Impact? 

Yeah I think it helps give us more ways to judge their performance

Absolutely. This, imo, was one of your best vids yet and all of your vids are very well done!

Can you do Childe and Diluc?

For sure, just want to see how big the power creep (if any) there is on Diluc the original DPS king. Also Childe too :)

@@joeyisabsb1 agree with you, iwtl does some of the best comparison videos. Yes, please include other main DPS chars and perhaps a listing of positions on where they fare

overkill bruh haha

My friend got both on winning 2 50/50 simultaneuosly for both of them. Skipping xiao

That's my team kekw

It goes brrrrrr

I put them together because their JP VAs are really good friends in real life

lol true

they're not even archons.. haha

@@murtaza6425 Hey it’s you! You found my comments twice

@@ok-ed3eq oh cool. I don’t remember you but that’s cool!

Me who has both: interesting

@@ch3rrylein BOTH ?!? I fear for the mobs in your world

But they have the thousand years best supports eyy? Bennett and venti HAHAHA

Liyue does have the best dps at this point with ganyu, hutao, xiao. Mondstadt got insane supports tho with venti, benny, and mona

@My Story no?

@My Story no?

@My Story dunno man, but as far as i know, physical have some problem againts big enemies non fatui due to how resistance work and elemental reaction involved is only 40% physical reduction at max while the infamous melt and vaporize goes as far as 150% till 200% damage increase.

Pls buff amber,imagin ganyu with shotgut deals more damage than a sniper, unfair. Need to make amber charge shot to be 400% at talent lvl 1 to be considered usable lol

@@pplwhoreplyisorangutan8543 an amber buff would be so nice, she's trash right now and that's sad

The problem with amber is actually her elemental skill, it's just a bunny with a small chunk of explosion they need to change it with something else like Hu Tao's elemental skill (but the bow version) or maybe even more unique, also her burst are just stupid tiny falling arrow and it's actually nothing compare to others, I stopped using Amber as main because my Ganyu could do better, I honestly really really love Amber character design but she's suck, *mihoyo needs to buff Amber*

@@melon3442 her normal attack multiplier is low and base attack is low, plus most ppl said u gotta plat sniper amber and aim for the head, they need to make amber high risk high reward sniper, if they really intend to make amber a sniper then baron bunny is not really a problem since it can be a meatshield for you to aim properly. But if they dont wanna make amber a sniper then yeah changr the baron bunny

Amber: Parry this you filthy casual!

and I love it for that

As always was

Always has been.

That’s why im so bad at it

Look who the creators are

@_Skittles_ mc anemo, noelle, amber, kaeya, lisa, barbara, no dendro yet but i heard the loli is free

@_Skittles_ they will since new element will come with new puzzle and no one likes locked out of puzzle because of gatcha

In every countries you get free heroes. Like xiangling from liyue and barbara from mondstadt

@_Skittles_ I feel like we will get a free YaoYao (Dendro) by doing something.

@@vapa117 doing something(nothing-playing archon quest=getting her)

Same here..

same

Also "Myon Myon myooooon puk, sayonaraa"

And itterashai

It would be full of zhongli hutao ganyu and a 4th random member

What if there are restrictions like in Pokemon where all are lv 50 Edit:like u don't use your artifacts and weapons you choose what you want to equipped and every artifacts have the same stat and lv, and also weapons

@@jhoeofhoe Venti

@@zra4191 it would still be dominated by hutao ganyu and zhongli because their multipliers are just insane compared to the others. For example, zhonglis shield is way way stronger than dionas, ganyus charged is already dealing ult level damage, and so on

@@jhoeofhoe does that still count if it's a 1v1 cause thats what I was talking about Edit: I mean 1 character against another 1 character, and since there are 4 characters in a team it would be up to 4 rounds where the one with the highest win, wins

please don't disregard the supports, they also have big impacts on their dps~ EHE! BIG IMPACT! GET IT?!

@@ArcherNoElle EHE TE NANDAYO!!

I use them both in my team and... YOU ARE FRICKIN RIGHT😤

Have both

@@ArcherNoElle these charaters dont need teams at c6 r5 THEY ARE THE TEAM

you mean EVOLVED?

LMAO

yes our cryo amber is so strong !!! 😁😁😁😁

I know this is referring to Ganyu and Hutao. but ppl really under estimate Xiangling DMG potential.

Diona and xiangling yea

You mean back when everyone was using non upgraded 3* artifacts with zero mora and unable to ascend talents past level 2 before hitting AR30-35 with their 3* Harbinger of Dawn? Yeah, I remember...it's inevitable people will break the game with enough time to farm god artifacts and obtain 5* weapons. Rather than focusing on numbers or DPS checks(abyss) they need to create more punishing mechanics that require you to build more defensively rather than just maximizing crit and damage substats(something like unavoidable party-wide DoT that requires dedicated healing and certain HP thresholds or die very painfully). Until they make enemies strong enough to one-shot your team if you don't build any defense then dedicated tanks/healers will not be meta(imagine C6 Noelle in that kind of meta though...)

Tbh they need to increase the difficulty, maybe make another World level because one shotting everything is fun at first but in the long term it gets boring real fast.

@@JohnSmith-ef6sv You know how childe got nerfed cuz his whale 1 shots?

@@qwertyqwert2818 They only nerfed him during the first story encounter, his stats and everything are still the same during the actual weekly domain.

@@JohnSmith-ef6sv i seee thanks!

That's very subjective

@@emptyvoid5272 it was pretty damn true since Ganyu is busted in AoE situation and long fight while Hu Tao is single target and short fight. They are literally the opposite.

@@d7603 so true, even in targeting they are meant for different purposes.

This is the main reason I got them both and skipped xiao and all other banners. They cover each other's weakness.

How bout BOTH!

I have both of them. I would say hu tao is more fun because u can hit the sides of hilichurl shields and kill them. You can also have a satisfying charge or burst damage number. The problem with ganyu is that you need a good shielding character. Everytime I try to charge up my ganyu I get hit and have to run away

Ganyu's e abilities is decoy solely made to continue with her charge atk why don't you use that it's not good as shield but works decently

RIGHT i love her

@@t3152 keqing in terms of dps with the same investment as the two shown in the video would, no offence get trashed on

@@homeyu126 why I say waifu over meta I love keqing the most lol

KEQING WAIFU SHE IS NOT HERE CAUSE SHE IS THE QUEEN HAHA Yes I am a ganyu main but a keqing simp..

@@Ami-gu7he IM A KEQING MAIN SIMPING OVER GANYU

Ganyus skills are underrated as a support. I use her as charged shot carry 95% of the time but in F12, she's a beast in a quick swap comp

They work extremely well with each other, and they both can be a sub to each other. Ganyu being a sub means hutao would be able to consistently melt, and hutao as a sub gives ganyu extra crit rate and also be a nuker due to melt.

@@aaronmarquez5596 It's not really underrated so much as that her investment level and output ratio really makes main DPS her undisputedly the best role. That said, I do run her as support for burst Tao and can finally bring my Keqing out to play on the other team.

@@shounen17 yeah plus her 20% crit rate boost as well

I got enough butt plugs to crown all of her talents... Just missing that mora

@Taichi Villaruel That is true. I still have bad artifacts for my hu tao but the damage she produces is still amazing.

@Taichi Villaruel she's really fun when you use her in the open world. Its just funny that your deleting enemies from far distance.

@Taichi Villaruel since I've been playing with archers (fischl, ganyu) as my mains since the beginning, I've been habituated to this gameplay. and I play on my tab so it's bigger than mobile but not as comfortable as pc. and I don't have any problem playing with ganyu. rather I can charge shoot while running. on the other hand polearm and sword are the least favourite weapon to me since I can't feel comfortable using them. I don't have hu tao but I can say that I'm glad to choose ganyu over hu tao. both are insane and at the top of meta list as well as of waifu list but imo ganyu is pretty consistent if you don't have problem playing with bow.

Remember when people thought Claymore was the most broken weapon? lol

And ganyu aoe

Lmao true

what's the name of the theme before that one?

just wish he did free to play, would like to see hu tao vs ganyu who are only C0 and with free weapons then see the match up, this more common set up for most, not everyone whales

@@brayxd5520 of course, maybe in ten years if you have luck

@@kyotheman69 i agree and I have the same sentiments. It is really something to look forward to in case you manage to get Hu Tao and/or Ganyu to C6 with ur freemogems but honestly, I don’t use this as a reference. Though props to him for showcasing this. I just like the way my chars do enough dmg to keep up the fight going a little longer haha

I underutilized this but I still cant get the characters i love lol

Same literally

me with Hu Tao's banner

ikr lmao

LOL I COMMENTED THIS TOO before I saw urs

I got Xiao and hes good enough to be a tad OP but not enough to one shot bosses into boredom (at least not yet anyways fuck my artifact luck)

I have xiao and I'm happy with him cuz no hutao / ganyu can replace him

And definitely u don't need to need to trigger any reactions his raw dmg is enough

Same!! Love them both

but one requires less investment, personally hu tao takes a lot of prep to be good, ganyu doesn't she ideal for free to play people

@@kyotheman69 when i got hu tao i personally didnt find it difficult to make her good, xiao was much harder in my opinion

@@unonight3499 i agree xiao is harder to build, excluding 5 star weapons the dps weapon for him is only the Deathmatch and Blackcliff as f2p Deathmatch is not an option ofc, Blackcliff is quite a big trade, Prototype isn't bad but less dps

@@kyotheman69 i don't know about this. Excluding 5 star weapons, best 4 star weapon for Hu Tao is Dragon's bane when playing with Xingqiu, even 3 star weapon like Black/White Tassel is a viable weapon for her too for artifacts Hu Tao is lot easier to build because comparing to Ganyu she needs 4/4 Wanderer Troup or 4/4 Blizzard, farming 4pc set with very good stats is extreme. While Hu Tao even just a 2/4 Crimson witch set and Wanderer Troup or etc is already enough to make her good

@@terabytedesu yeah i literally have only 2 witch and randoms for my hu tao and still do 100k damage with her burst :) shes not done yet, but easily my best dps, other than xiao

“If they existed in this game” Azdaha, childe, stormterror and abyss. Abyss is also the only hard content that’s competitive in this game, everything else is easy af

Ocenaid is long 🤡

@@venupewer4882 and accuses u of being an assassin from fontain lol

@@seiji-kun9488 or a fool who trespasses in the waters of qince 😂😂🙏

@@murtaza6425 All of the things you mentioned can be cleared with hu tao easily because she still kills them super quick. As for abyss, she doesn't suffer that much because you just do your e, do your dashes and when your pyro infusion runs out, if everything is not already dead, then you just do the bursts/e of your other supports and by the time those are done, hu Tao's e is back so she can basically always have that pyro infusion so it really doesn't matter if it's a long fight.

yes! play style really matters as well. although ganyu is probably a bit more broken than hu tao, i use hu tao more cause i prefer melee over ranged attacks even though i have both pretty well built :D

@@yvu-2248 yeah for me ganyu is broken also and hutao has better dmg coz she is pyro and elemental dmg is broken

@@yvu-2248 this is me 😭😭 i know people prefer ganyu more but ganyu doesnt suit my playstyle. Im more of a close range player

@@meiguang416 very fair, her playstyle is extremely hit or miss lol but I enjoy it so much

Yeh I got 11 tusks and 11 shards. I’ve only gotten 5 plugs in total. Mad annoying considering I have xiao and ganyu. Might aswell roll for zhongli

I've been getting everything except shard the only thing I want for hu toa.

same, i have a lot of shadows but i think childe would rather die than drop me a single shard. it’s hard since i wanna upgrade both his and hu tao’s talents yet he’s holding me back every week, sigh

I have so many tusks yet no shard *^*

I have 12 of each one and i used 6 of the bp to max my ganyu

meanwhile i read montreal

yeah, this is why the comparison is meh. Once the fight lasts longer than one minute, the difference between their dps becomes large.

comparing DPS under 10 sec *such as comparing Burst damage but as DPS? 😅

He do this for entertainment tho, and its a whale's showdown, not a guide comparing who's better for f2p.

and he did it in the hardest content of the game, abyss 12. is there any other place that have a longer battle than that rn?

@@dajjalkid the game need something like "boss raid" but not multiplayer. Example, a boss with billions HP, so people can try to deal as much dmg as possible in 60-90s.

should triple crown both of them

@@Indivinity hu tao maybe, but tripple crowning ganyu is pointless and a huge waste of crowns. Only crown ganyu aa and nothing else

I used my 1/5 crown for the first time at AR55 and who was the luckiest character? it's my Qilin Gurl uwu

@@biggiesucc2546 nah if I like a character and want to make them the best I can get them then you bet that I'm gonna triple crown them

@@Indivinity what you would like to do is one thing, but giving advice that makes no sense for the majority of the players is another thing. Ganyu's e is useless to crown and her q, while being good, just isn't worth the crown

but they make the previous dps characters pretty inconsequential

I wouldn’t put Xiao anywhere near hu tao and Ganyu. diluc, Klee , and childe are all much stronger dps’s than Xiao simply because of vaporize

@@omarjafar846 have you seen his Ganyu vs Xiao video? I think they're pretty on par but I agree that Xiao cant really do good elemental reactions

@@omarjafar846 If were talking about "who can deal the most damage in a single dps window without supports" i'd argue xiao is the best out of the three, but overall Diluc,Childe,Ganyu and Hu Tao is still better than him due to having access to crazy elemental reactions, but i still like xiao the most cause he's fun :D

@@omarjafar846 xiao is better than diluc klee and childe if you have anemo supports for him xiao when his ult his dmg is equal to diluc vape comp and also don't forget about his Massive AOE attack

More like a bazooka. Takes the 'snipe' out of sniper when you don't even need to aim or can just shoot the floor and everything dies xD

@@nath6072 it’s literally a cluster rocket

i want to get ganyu in the future but genshin is kinda laggy for me and its hard to aim

ok but hu tao is gonna come first, imo getting ganyu would be better as she has more damage per second than ganyu but get whoever u want as both are good enough

@@ashenzenden you said ganyu twice

@@ashenzenden my brain is broken and not because of your comment because i actually can’t decide on which i’m getting i’m on 66 pity and guaranteed but i’m using a pyro dps and pyro domains are hard and my dps already needs the same mats as hutao

@@estr4591 Klee main here, I am pulling for Hu tao (complete f2p) and here’s why. First off, I think her play style is extremely fun, even more so than Ganyu. Keep in mind these are all my own opinions. Especially on mobile, so despite me rocking an amazing wanderer’s set, I just don’t think ganyu is worth it. I love the character, the design, and the unique build. I don’t mind difficult pyro domains because I don’t mind a little difficulty for my favorite character.

Personally it depends, for speedruns hu tao is waaaaaaay better for whales since she can one shot easily, but ganyu is more well rounded and foolproof imo. After all hu tao really lacks aoe, ofc this doesn't matter for one shots but otherwise ganyu can pull ahead depending on the situation. Both are still top tier dps though, and the differences in clear times are so minimal it can be neglected.

But ganyu is boring as heck to play. I skipped ganyu and have no plans to roll for her even thos she is op like hutao

@@Badkhela preference. Ganyu is far and away my favorite character to run around with. Doing nearly 50k damage without reactions every 2 ish seconds is fun to me

Depends. I have them both at c0 biS weapons r1 and I much rather prefer hu tao since she can eliminate enemies faster than ganyu. The problem with ganyu is that you just gotta get that aim correct for every single shot. While aiming she's very vulnerable. And since I don't play with any shielders. Hu tao doesn't have any problems. She can simply pass through enemies for evasion, and helps me regenerate hp as and whenever I wish, which in itself is a high damage shot.

hu tao at c1 is better tha ganyu c1 tho

Agree

@@blahblahsuperanon hmm. the problem i see with Hu Tao as support is that if she does burst support, she can't reapply AoE Pyro effectively, which means u would need another pyro aura support. so her viability as a support is still similar to her viability as a dps, since she is viable as long as everything remains killable in 1 burst rotation (because her charged spam vaporize is similar dps to her 1 rotation burst). on the other hand, because u can so easily burst spam with ganyu, and her AoE is so huge (plus she can CC enemies with E like keeping huge enemies inside Venti's Q with her E), Ganyu is all of the following: CC/burst spam/AoE/good aura if paired with sucrose/venti's Q/ok aura if standalone. and ganyu works much easier with elemental absorption as well, since u get aura for whichever element u absorb (with good dmg), since ganyu's Q is on-field continuous for 15 seconds, and your carry is also continuously attacking, so it doesn't matter which element gets absorbed, u got good dmg for both and constant aura for either inside Venti's or Sucrose's Q. ganyu's Q is well known for benefitting greatly from venti's Q if the opposite element is absorbed. if using ganyu as a support, it is also great for your main carry. she is truly a hybrid dps/support, unlike hu tao who is not truly a hybrid. on the other hand, because hu tao's Q is single hit, u should not elemental absorb pyro before her Q if using her as a burst support. this means u would elemental absorb hydro/cryo, which is not good for your carry. else, u would need some extra steps to set up for hu tao's burst, then set up elemental absorption for pyro after hu tao's Q (but again, hu tao would only work for 1 burst rotation). and what's even easier with ganyu is that u can also mix in a hydro support/aura, since pyro can melt/vaporize whichever. in addition, u don't even need pyro because u can shatter with geo or claymore, or pyro claymore. ganyu is just a true hybrid unlike hu tao which is mainly dps (hu tao's crit is mainly just to improve her rotation to better than childe rotation, not really a significant support design).

nono, Hu Tao is the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile

Melt ganyu winning in abyss which literally is the only hard content that matters in game: 👁 👄 👁

@@murtaza6425 she does have only 6% chance to be better than hu tao and its really easy to get hit when not using freeze ganyu. Hu tao > Ganyu for not having to spend hours trying to get that 6% chance and hoping to not get hit bcuz dodging will increase the time by quite a bit.

@@IamAmygdala dodging is not that hard because ganyu has range and you need to use shielder on both because there squishy? Also hu tao has way many caveats like stamina management at c0, health management, has to go in directly in the fight so more chances of straight up dying and she has her main damage in ult and skill so if the water tide ever comes again she’s screwed because the time of her abilities is extended while ganyu can launch consistent damage regardless. Also ganyus easier to build and has comfy play styles which hu doesn’t have or she can go full on damage Ganyu > hu tao imo

@@murtaza6425 I have both C0 HuTao and C0 GanYu, but I feel HuTao is better than GanYu. Maybe because I have Homa for HuTao but no Amos for Ganyu. But I think GanYu damage also will not increase too much after having Amos Bow. So most likely HuTao is still better than GanYu after GanYu having Amos Bow. In my opinion, HuTao > GanYu

@@jefffan3384 Homa for hu tao is a huge upgrade, also not to mention the fact that your most likely not looking into the advantages of ganyu and are fighting single target enemies. Ganyu is 1: Future proof as she has the ability to support. 2: There are no good F2P cryo DPS but there is xiangling a pyro dps who basically invalidates hu tao in everything that isnt single target. 3: Your hu tao has Homa, a Homa to hu tao is a huge upgrade but most people will not be able to get a Homa and then there hu tao is gonna be nowhere near as good as the homa ones compared to ganyu with an Amos who is great but the prototype crescent is 0.5 - 15% behind Amos only so it isn’t a huge make or break. 4: hu tao excels in single target and that’s likely why you feel “ hu tao > ganyu” but the thing is there are more AoE enemies then single target enemies in abyss ( abyss is the only hard content in the game, basically nothing else matters because there isn’t a timer ) so Ganyu is generally better. 5: Ganyu can do amazing raw damage without Amos bow whilst hu tao always needs xingqiu so you can’t free up xingqiu for other teams. In my opinion Ganyu > Hu Tao Homa makes a difference my guy
