Problem is that she doesnt even need reactions or good timing. Just spam all ult buffs and she does the best dps. Rotations for energy recharge arent even needed because she recharges everyone's ults by dealing dmg. Kazuha and raiden seem like the hardest ones to not make worth using.

You use Eula's kit to her intended use and potential (stacking and backloading damage, if the enemies have a slow windup animation where they get up, it is SUPPOSED to favor Eula, and you can't discount that just so other characters can compete. Even if you started the timer during the invul phase of the primo vishap, it would just add 7+ seconds to everyone, eula will still nuke it the moment its resistance are down, so imo your metric is fine, eulas kit is just amazing at abusing some bosses. Shes weaker against multi phase bosses, but Raiden covers that perfectly in combination with Eula.

[@Gennosuke1983]

It's not fine lol, attacking random enemies then teleporting to the boss to blow them up is not how things work in real gameplay situations like Abyss. Obviously Eula still wins, but she doesn't have 0.04s times, that's just ridiculous. Building the stacks on her Burst is part of the Burst, that's why fighting the same enemies with Eula can have totally different results because they dash and you miss stacks or you don't crit, etc. This is the same as the Noelle showcase when he was timing the shield blowup to DRAMATICALLY decrease Noelle's clear times. That's not DPS, because in normal scenarios you can't time the shield blow up

[@pnoodl3s775]

Out of these, only xiao and itto don’t use reactions. Eula, Raiden and other dps like Ayaka, Ganyu, Hu Tao all benefits greatly from reaction. Raiden uses overload-vaporized reaction to great effect, and Eula uses superconduct.

[@H2Ocup]

@@pnoodl3s775I mean in the National comp. Yea raiden uses those reactions,but as a hyper carry(which she is the best as at c0) she really doesn't need reactions.

[@josephusaquila]

@@pnoodl3s775 My only gripe about this showdown is that both Xiao and Itto are element infusing characters whereas Eula uses a nuke burst. It doesn't quite add up to me that Eula is included to this showdown where her playstyle is very devoid to how Xiao and Itto uses their burst. I know they are all DPS' but this showcase is just sideways for that factor. And yes, despite Eula having no benefits from major reaction, but she does have superconduct available to her, which synergizes with her playstyle; she already have a factor that makes her more powerful than both Xiao and Itto, in which they have no match with.

[@pnoodl3s775]

@@H2Ocup In some variants of hypercarry she still uses reactions, like Sunfire Raiden or Kazuha Raiden. Jean and Kazuha can trigger huge overload damage with Raiden electro infusion and their Pyro swirl. Of course most of her damage is not based on reactions, but I'd argue she can still gain much benefits out of it, unlike Itto and Xiao who both literally gain nothing from their reactions.

[@annettegarde2636]

@@pnoodl3s775 eula can also go without superconduct, the phy resistance shred from her e skill is good enough

[@foolpersona_]

Just the fact that Eula is the only one here that actually can utilize Raiden due to her shorter burst window and insanely good synergy with literally EVERYTHING that Raiden has in her kit says a lot already. You can't be powercrept if your the best partner for an archon (which only gets better with constellations) not even talking about DPS which is pretty obvious, just team building, Eula is the only one who does not need someone dedicated. She doesn't need a specific electro to apply superconduct, she doesn't need a specific battery, unlike Hu Tao who needs Xingqiu without a replacement or Itto who needs Gorou which no other geo can replace. She's also the most team flexible character as you don't need to worry about her as much to make her good (compared to Ayaka who only excels in freeze teams) I've seen people run Eula in a melt national variation even and dominate speedrun rankings. It's just insane Edit: Also to point out some of the parts in the video which were unfair to Eula. First the builds, Eula had the worst crit ratio out of all three of them and this is a big issue because out of them 3, she scales the most with better artifacts. The gap would be wider in every category if the artifacts were better. In Overworld where Eula won every single fight, his Eula never used food (see the bathysmal vishap fight. If the other 2 didnt use food, they might not have been able to beat both enemies in 9 seconds and once one of them jumps away, speedrunning is pointless. this is the reason why shintenzu intentionally used food on Xiao which IWTL followed suit with Itto) Moreover, in the geovishap fight, if IWTL removed Zhongli's shield, Eula would still one shot it. This is an issue to the other two who can't shred resistance by themselves and would have lead to longer clear times for both of them (add to the fact that always putting zhongli shield negates the advantage of Eula's burst having super armor-- then again doesn't matter because of the timing methodology) In the abyss, the run by Mr. 89 for 2.3 rotation was a great speedrun and showed unparalleled synergy between the Eula+Ei in continuous runs where having dual hypercarry is the way to go (it's the only real dual hypercarry comp right now that's not for showcase and actually comfy to use regardless of constellations) Both Itto and Xiao are not made to be in a dual carry team with issues like long burst duration and low downtime. Specifically C6 Itto which has almost no downtime, with caveat that both his C2 and Gorou requires more geo in the team. Continuing in the 2.4 abyss run, it was obvious that the entire top half was unfair to Eula with everyone having massive physical resistance. Literally every chamber. Itto faced the same issue in the second chamber with primo geovishap, but being disadvantaged in one chamber is not the same as on all chambers (and the abyss blessing compensated heavily on damage) The last thing is that IWTL showed a "Cryo Eula" run for the final comparison which is fine but if he did a Eula focused team ( like instead of Sara+Kazuha, he put Bennett+Rosaria or even remove Raiden core for another Eula-centric team) then IWTL could have shown the capabilities of Eula even without Raiden instead of using an obvious meme team that is only viable with a C6 Shenhe.

Both deals aoe damage but Itto does it faster, hence he deals way more damage overall, his ult also doesn't have a negative effect such as life consuming like Xiao's and the energy restrictions while in burst mode. What xiao needs is a rework on his ult. Make plunging and jumping faster, increase it's damage at least a little, remove the debuffs of the ult. Also make a better weapon for that boi Xiao cus goddamn that pjs' effect is garbage. It's like his signature weapon but only aesthetically.

But my expectation was having her as just a battery and have all the other support supporting eula (because she is the carry). I think it will be much better if the supports brought into the teams are not sara and kazuha (bc they support raiden more than they do eula/xiao), and instead someone like zhongli and c6 rosaria which leans more towards supporting eula for example. It’s more acceptable imo. Other than that, I’m perfectly fine:) once again thank you soo much!

I was fine with Xiao being a support since your content usually focuses on speedrunning perspectives. I think the issue with defining a support vs DPS in this situation is that Raiden is both in a Eula team. To support the team, Raiden has to take up field time dealing DPS. So having Xiao as a support is probably a little different than having him as a DPS, even though I think it was fine to do so.

[@IWinToLose]

So my thoughts on this that I didn't fully explain in the video. Eula has this back loaded damage advantage where she can use the bosses invulnerability against them. It's why she's not in my DPS showdowns regularly because there's always a creative way to blow things up with her. The fairest alternative, after thinking about it more, is IMO to start timing when the boss's health bar appear. This lowers the percentage difference in time but it keeps the difference in time roughly the same to make it Look more competitive. There's just no getting around Eula's kit working the way it does against these specific mobs. Anyway, I'm open to feedback! Thank you everyone who have left constructive feedback and how you felt about all this!

Yep, physical might not be the best answer for all situation, but it IS always an answer for every situation.

My solution the problem was getting the free Yun Jin from the lantern rite event and replacing Zhongli with her. Itto is a tank himself with around 2500 Def so he doesn't really need shields. He makes his own Crystallise shields which are more than enough with the amount of def he has. So yea f2p struggles I guess.

Itto is just too fun. UNGA BUNGA is the best form of gameplay. Also Xiao needs a dedicated set.

Eula is a walking BOMB loved how she just teleported into the bathysmal bishap lair and then they just dissapeared KEKL

[@DEEZ_N4T]

Eula is arguably the fastest claymore user in the game right now, with Itto and Sayu close behind, pair her with C6 Yunjin and she’s gonna max that stack faster

[@dariosaviors]

I run a Eula C0/R1 - Raiden C2/The Catch. It’s a double carry team. Eula deals around 800/900K during her burst rotation, every 2 Raiden rotation for 450K each. They are the most (and probably the only) couple of DPS that can fight together summing up instead of stealing time each other. The only other couple that comes to my mind is Ayaka-Ganyu. That works, just not so damn smoothly as Eula and Raiden. My team is Eula - Raiden - Bennett core, then C6 Rosaria if I want to focus on Eula, C6 Sara for Raiden, C6 Fischl for both.

It is obviously obvious that qiqi came out on top

[@musicdz8135]

Theres a new artifact set that give u extra damage everytime u lose hp during burst. Seems like Xiaos gonna be fine in the future

[@genesis2mallari695]

Its kinda Bias onto Eula, since timer starts very differently for her.... I mean, even in abyss/ event dungeons, timer starts once you "activate" the "Key".... the "problem", Eula needs "special treatment" in order to perform better. Unlike the two other compared characters who fights fair. In actual fights, enemies will not always be in your favor. So the more flexible/versatile the character is, the better. But overall, Its still a good match up, I guess....

[@kyrollosmagdi5477]

Nah it's not , even if we followed that logic , that would just add the time to all 3 equally and not just to eula , in their invulnerable state , eula can build up stacks while the others will just have to wait until they can start attacking . It's the same no matter how you change the timer .

[@sagnikdeb9589]

@@kyrollosmagdi5477 its still unfair

[@Rawzix]

How is it biased? If you would’ve started the timer the second he hit primo vishap it would’ve been the same results just 10 seconds longer on everyones result? You want Eula not to be able to hit him in the invulnerable state? Why? It’s Eula’s kit and she shouldnt have to be crippled because of it. Also you compare abyss timer and dungeon timer to world bosses but they have nothing to do with each other? Also he did show abyss times in the video so what is the problem?

[@saddany3254]

Doesn't matter, she would've still finished quicker.

[@redreaper3608]

i tune out for a moment and then all i hear are several raiden's activating her burst. Forgot what vid I was watching for a moment

[@zeroisnine]

Maybe should have listed a hypercarry Raiden time to compare... though that would kinda just invalidate the competition, lol. Good stuff!

[@michi1944]

Sustain dps vs Nuke dps Kinda skewed torwards nuke, especially how eula cannot attain max stack burst before c6 and the testing methodology versus the bathismal vishap is so biased torwards Eula too (tho she probably will still be the fastest bcs its overworld) Also the last run is bascially raiden vs itto vs raiden

[@shachede6828]

Lmaoo. You get. This was beyond a skewed run. I didn’t see eula in that abyss. Raiden was solo wiping out floors. 🤣🤣🤣

@@shaheeranwarkhan but you gotta take into consideration that this is a showdown between 3 characters. Using Raiden is unfair because she is not a support, she is a sub dps when Eula is in cooldown and is also a Hyper carry. Is like using a c6 melt hu tao to one shot a chamber for itto is the same as using a c2 hypercarry Raiden for Eula (Leaving the "support" of Raiden aside)

@@shaheeranwarkhan But you cant deny the methodology of the bathismal vishap is skewed 🤷 Obviously if you want to give xiao a raiden, give all 3 contenstant a raiden too, isntead itto get a useless Albedo that is unecessary for a c2++ itto. I also see your comments saying the same thing replying other comments, but i didnt even say eula having raiden is unfair on my comments.

[@NWILS-uc1ju]

This feels like a Raiden showcase ngl. The comp is literally a Raiden hypercarry comp with Eula slapped in, Kazuha/Sara provide 0 synergy for Eula herself and are just there to buff Raiden. You should've removed them and put in Diona, Shenhe, Bennet, Rosaria, yada

Eula in this rule set is pretty much unbeatable. When it comes to bursting, Hu Tao, Ayaka and Childe are the only other dps who can nuke, Hu Tao and Childe can't even do it without reactions though so it's pretty much just Ayaka in the overworld.

[@sheep2826]

The fact that with the release of Shenhe, Cryo Xiao not only exists but performs well, is an indication that Xiao has massive potential to perform better in these showdowns if and when he or other Anemo damage characters get a dedicated 4pc Artifact set and a good specialized support. Eula and Itto both have specific 4pc artifacts tailor made to them, and supports that are perfect for buffing them. The closest thing Xiao has to that is 30% plunge damage from Albedo.

[@Le_Thalia_GeniusSociety]

for someone who pull and get Xiao hes still good and has potential Mihoyo just need to make a Artifacts for him and a support because right now Mihoyo is buffing normal attack character by the use of Yunjin lets wait for them to give him support and artifacts maybe next 4* or 5* character will buffs plunge attack

@@saery4523 yeah but he has a huge disadvantage compared to other units like itto who not only have an artifact set just for them but also have tailor made supports like gorou.

@@dummyyogurt5375 that’s not a disadvantage. as zajef and zyox have already said, the fact that xiao can compete with other 5* that have special sets and dedicated supports made for them means that if he were to get the same treatment he’d get a massive boost on top of his raw power so what I mean is, he still has a lot of headroom. he’s pretty future-proof, in my opinion.

@@strymoon but it is , by definition, a disadvantage. A disadvantage is when others start off with more than you. Xiao isnt on equal grounds with ganyu or itto in terms of support because they have more advantages to them in the forms of artifact sets and support units that are perfect for them. Regardless of the damage they do, xiao has less buffs and less things that can improve his performance than other five stars dps units do.
