I Ranked EVERY Character's Splash Art in Genshin Impact... 

What do you guys think of my list 😏

Honestly the characters before 1.5 alone should get extra point for having different splash art than their drip marketing 😂

Childe still feels like a character that was ahead of his time. The splash art was really good, his kit is so technical for an early character too. His vibes are future-proof.

I love Furina's splash art, there's so much going on, and all of it looks incredible

zhongli’s is still my all time favourite. if you look at the background, it looks like liyue pre-civilization or something. baizhu’s is a close second

28:05 Oh my god, I just realized that Furina's splash art is so detailed that you can see her reflection in the water.

Whoever said “Lyney supremacy” in the chat, I hope your socks stay dry, I hope the other side of your pillow is cold, I hope your water is iced, I hope you never stub your toes again, I hope you win your 50/50’s.

I kinda love that you can almost put Furina and Neuvillette's splash arts together, with her standing atop the water's surface and him judging from beneath the depths. Fits lore-wise as well.

Finally someone acknowledges how gorgeous Baizhus splash art is! ❤

emile splash art is actually so pretty

Childe's the only earlier character in S tier, it proofs how his splash art is so good even compared to the newer ones. Also from an artist standpoint, his splash art has dynamic composition, looks satisfying because his silhouette and colors stands out against the wave background. He really is one of Hoyo's favorite child

25:16 “It’s pretty basic, but it’s Kaveh.” So real

You can REALLY see how much the splash arts have improved

zhongli's splash art will forever be my fave

If I'm being honest, I'd put all the Archon in the S+ cause they have their own uniqueness than the other characters. Also yeah, we can't deny the Neuvillette is so sick. I begin to wonder what could Mavuika's splash art gonna be? Are we getting her riding a motorbike cause she totally look like a racer 😂

I'm convinced that 98% of players thought that Ninguang was a 5 star when they first played. She was done dirty by Hoyo.

It's crime to not included skins , dilucs 5star skin has the one of the best splash art

Neuvillette's splash art is just so MAJESTIC AND GORGEOUS❤❤❤

My favorite will always be furina >:) (I’m sane I swear)

I genuinely love Furina and Arlechinnos’ splash art, Fontaine has the style 😭🙏

Neuvillette's splash art is literally such a blessing to my eyes. I'm glad he was my first five star

I never actually noticed how john has been wearing the same shirt all this time

Can we talk about furina splash arts for a sec?? most archons have realistic looking houses in their splash art (except nahida since its a cage) but furina splash art have houses that look like they are made out of cardboard, like from a play. Its such a good details that i never noticed before the video.

I haven't finished the video so don't know what will change later but Kazuha Xiao Childe being in the same tier as Ayaka Rosaria is a crime lmao, they should be low S tier at least

Zhongli will always be number 1 for me, it is just stunning

I really like Yae Miko’s I’m sorry to disappoint but the blossom tree fits the vibe + the small electro kistune next to her 💕🌳

for me childe is definitely S+ tier, because of his posing and the way he interacts with his environment/building he's on. id also argue for albedo S tier cause the posing is super sick

I don't know if it's just me but after watching this video I realized that chongyun's splash art is actually insane even though it was whatever to me the past 3 years lol

Zhong li's splash art gives me chills bro

Monas splashart is so underrated. The background togehter with her is amaizing. But Navia is just on another level. Also Yae being A Tier despite having a huge detailed background is just wrong.

OUR FAVORITE WHAT?!? 24:36

Neuvuillette (i probably spelled that wrong) is seriously the most majestic character in genshin. Such a boss

“NUMBER ONE GASLIGHTER” 💀

My favourite is baizhu's its so pretty and unique

childe in a is a fucking crime 😭 he has the best splash art poses with hutao and albedo, not to mention it calls back to his demo and isnt just his burst directly

Neuvilette spash art goes so hard for no reason

22:44 "LOVE ME, HATE ME, THEY HATED JESUS BECAUSE HE SPOKE THE TRUTH" Yes. This may be controversial but I totally agree with it. Well done Jon 😌✨

Controversial opinion, I don’t like any of the ones in S+ tier. They just don’t feel like splash art from a design standpoint. They’re far too carried by the background, they don’t have strong silhouettes of the characters and bar Furina are all just stood there so don’t have interesting poses. IMO, the best ones are characters like Childe, Albedo and Clorinde. Strong poses, they’re interacting with the backgrounds while still having notable silhouettes, and there’s not too many distracting outside elements. It’s the same reasoning as to why Venti is my favourite of the archons’ art, it’s simple but still recognisable instead of just being a blob and everything that was behind the others is nicely tucked away under his feet so it doesn’t muddy his silhouette at all.

The appreciated amount of love u gave for my man Zhongli was smt else Johm😊😎, thanks so much brotha:)

Glad to see Zhongli appreciation, his splashart remains one of the best even after all this time and the only character that dethroned it for me has been Neuvillette so far. . THE AURAAAAAAAAA (also agree with Neuvillette looking like he just came from the heaven AND I LOVE that vibe).

Underestimating the simple and elegant. I think the best 2 are Candace and Chiori

if Xiao didn't get a 10/10 i'm coming for you Jon!/j edit- I MEAN S+ A?? A?? I'M COMING JON

Raiden will always be the best splash art Clorinde: ya sure about that??

Chongyun's splash art will always be the best

Fontaine 5 stars are all on top S and SS+ explains that eating baguette is truly superior

NGL.. All the splash art from 1.0 to 1.3 are S tier to me, since it isn't the character introduction art with a background. And it just look, better, with much more personality

Lynette, Furina, Arlecchino, Emilie and Gaming's are my favourite. The splash arts are so pretty 😍

Something I find interesting upon seeing all these is that all the archons have their regions in their artwork, like the cliff and windmill for Venti or the main building in Ei's even Furina has Fontaine in hers.... But there isn't any parts of Sumeru in Nahida's it's just the interior of the Sanctuary where she was locked away.

I actually really like lyneys splash art,

In an artist perspective, Zhongli and Furina are a tie on the top of S+ tier… Zhongli and Furina just pop out from the background, while Neuvillefte just hurts my eyes with how bright his background is. Navia tho… I dislike her splash art just because they used the same yellows from her outfit for her background, it makes her blend in and not stand out… but for the rest, I agree with your list!

Honestly, I feel that there are a few who really should be higher. Mona's splash art, imo, is better than alechinno's, but no one is ready to accept that.

Furina's art is SO GOOD I SOMEHOW FORGOT BUT IT GOES SO HARD!!!!

Xingqiu's isn't BAD but not good, because it's basic. Furina's and Neuvillette's will always be my favorites.

Jon, your channel never fails to make me laugh. It really is a comfort channel for me when I feel alone - thank you

My favourite is wanderer neuvillette and (seen from leakers and hoyo) KINICH’s

baizhus splash art is definitely my favourite, its so graceful

When I didn't realize just how many characters genshin had until I saw it.

Zhongli's splash art is still the best in my opinion.

After watching, and then rewatching to compare my feelings, I have 3 things. 1. Mona got shafted SO bad. Like, dude I get it and I agree, I love Yelan's to pieces. But Mona's is better than Yelan's. Where her's is clean, Mona has so much more going on. The stars, nebula, rings and planets, nevermind the semi-transparent space effect and the reflective surface she stands on, she doesn't beat the archons (and baizhu tbh) but she easily clears Dehya (as someone who actually uses and adores Dehya, I am so happy you gave her love she deserves.) And Yelan. 2. Honestly, I think the character archive background does so many of them dirty. It compliments the cryo well but darker blues or purples get lost (Justice4Kokomi) and other effects clash without a custom background, which was what carried most A and S tiers. The darker colors on the actual wish screen make effects pop way better and compliment all colors. Due to the tan-orange gradient in the middle I think Gorou's is great, same with Yun Jin. It gives unfair advantages to some (Baizhu might actually be too A without it) and sabotages most 3. Later = better effect on 4 stars did not hold as much water as you made it out to be, I think that there honestly should have been a separate list for each rarity. Many 4 stars got downplayed fighting impossible odds without backgrounds, only one cleared A through Fontaine privilege, and other 4 stars were definitely better Overall, your list, and I respect it, just putting in my 2 cents that make me wonder how official and definitive it actually is under these specific circumstances. I lowkey hope we return to the list and finds some proper grades but thats up to you

I got Neuvillette as my first event banner 5-star and remembered that it felt really sick pulling him because of his absolutely amazing splash art. I didn’t even know who he was at that point, but it felt like i just pulled the fricking King of the world

Fontaine characters splash art are just built diff

Imo the old characters splash arts are my favorite, because you can guess who is the character just from the shadow alone. Especially venti's.

Zhongli s++ fr. Sometimes i forget what his splash art looks like then get so hyped when i see it again.

One thing that I miss from the older splash arts is the different poses compared to the drip marketing, it just adds something extra to it.

10:40 me! It's me!

I literally just clicked on to make sure there was no diss on Tartaglia Neuvi or Baizhu, was happy, smiled, celebrated, and then forgot to watch the rest. Let me go do that.

10:56 21:25 finally SOMEONE putting respect on the queen’s names!😤

1)FURINA 2)ZHONGLI 3)BAIZHU 4)NAHIDA (I DON'T HAVE OR PLAN TO HAVE BIZHU)

Why is Yoimiya the only character you don't have?😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

yelan should have been JUST a high B jbc it's iconic but it looks SOOOOO stinkin' plain to me LOL, i mean.. yelan ABOVE??? NAHIDA?? nahhh

I already know chongyun is in S

I will forever adore Furina's splashart and it's #1 in my heart 🪼

A for Albedooooooooo!!! Not even a biased opinion, his pose looks so good. Also lowkey you did Kaeya dirty with D tier, guy deserved at least C, all good though your opinion :)

should've had a second tier list for the skins

0:36 ermm acktually u put 493 I counted them well Calculated them but u get the gist☝️🤓

Yae miko anywhere below S tier is actually criminal

I love that you liked ventis and Ei’s! Despite so many characters coming and giving you a hard time choosing which one is best, Ei still kept her part in S tier, and Venti kept his part in A tier. Not many people like these two, but I appreciate the way you put down your list! And also I feel like chongyuns is amazing?? Like how have I not noticed this??

And just because someone said why collie. Was so high on the tier you lower her down I thought you said this was honest opinions.

I think Neuvillette's splash art is the best. In his splash art there is nothing that overshadows something. Even if you were to take the back ground and bubbles away his character ALONE works with any other basic hydro splash art and then combining it with its add-ons makes it even better as it summarizes the character perfectly in a nice balance as there's nothing that doesn't catch your eye. I personally thought Arlecchino was #3 in S+ Because if you were to take the moon away it would've looked more like a smiling Xiao splash art.

Zhongli and Furina have the best easily Navia, Arlecchino, Wanderer, Emilie, and Barbara have my personal favorite splash arts

5:38 as a Bennett main, bro did him dirty with the joke😂

Splash arts in patch 1 seem to be better in my mind 😅 Also I think they look better in black background.

I feel like zhongli could have been hoyo’s perfect archon or character in general if they let he become a fully shielder at the start of the game and make a better sig for him because the hype from the trailer, the theme song, the splash art everything is still so good even to this day and he’s always a good option to pull for despite being released pretty early

Banner Art design ❌ Power level ✅

Until this video I didn't realise how many arts show the character using their burst

Surprisingly, we had around the same values/observations for each splash art. And I know you were joking saying you had bias towards some of these, but you were actually pretty neutral with your ranking & your choices were justified. Refreshing to see you not fold to the chat's "D" opinion when Dori's came around, or any of the other unpopular/popular characters

I LOVE NEUVIS SPLASH ART SO MUCH LIKE OMLL

I LOVE DEHYA SPLASH ART! The S tier is perfect, the aura, the pose, the effects everything is amazing in dehya!

Baizhus is so pretty

actually i realised on the 5 stars banners they are the same as the splash art

Honestly Zhongli is by far one of my favorites, they were cooking smth in his splash art and the fact he was also released early game speaks volume

I found myself agreeing with way more of this tier list than I usually do for subjective takes like this! If you revisited this tier list just a week later, I almost feel like you would need another tier completely for the Natlan characters. Apart from the unique pop-arty visual style, even the dynamism of the poses and level of detail that's gone into the artwork is on a whole new level.

The fact you haven't forgotten about Teppei after all these years. Same brother, same.

Ain't no way, Jon has been wearing the same shirt for the whole time 😧

Bro i genuinely forgot how amazing some of the characters splash art was like NEUVILLETTE!? FURINA!? they looked sick and absolutely amazing!!!!

Dudes really giving his in-law a hard time. Chungyun's boyfriend I feel sorry for you

Aside from you putting kazuha so high and my bias for hu tao it’s aight

How low you ranked Lyney hurt me mentally💔 Not my boy😭😭

I was so happy when I saw Kirara in A tier as a Kirara main
