No the kid was winning cuz jing cheated

[@TheGaygaChad]

​@@Roman-m7e9m neither was winning, the game was bound to end in a draw. That's why jing yuan stole the piece.

[@jonikuttan7037]

Actually, Jing Yuan ate his own pieces to let Yanqing win.

[@hhayeluj]

When i heard jing’s voice I NEVER WOULD HAVE GUESSED that it’s the same as cyno’s VA 😭 his vocal range is crazy

[@yoshi_chuck05]

Me neither! First Cyno and now Jing?! Amazing guy!

[@titaochen5249]

The short version of why Jing Yuan stole one of his own pieces is because the game shown in the start was destined to end in a draw, Jing Yuan was gonna steal his piece and move it somewhere else to solve the draw. If you want to learn more about Chinese Chess (Xiang Qi) and why the game shown in the trailer was destined to end in a draw, I highly recommend a video uploaded by BerrieBear. Edit: An endgame like the one in the trailer has a name in Chinese Chess, it is literally called "Immortality" or "Eternal Life" because the game would go on forever with no end in sight, which symbolizes Xianzhou Luofu's current struggles. Jing Yuan breaking the rules to solve the game shows his determination as a General to solve this problem no matter the cost.

The piece Jing Yuan takes is on the board at the start in the corner to his right. When he slams the leaf down, it's gone and you can see his right hand moving out of shot. Also, Jing Yuan is best Daddy. More than happy to cheat in order to lose so his adorable little boy wins.😂

I love cy yu's voice acting a LOT. he's one of the reasons why i plan on pulling for Jing Yuan anyways (not only that but the design is pretty sick) 😁

He stole the piece in the bottom most corner to his right a second before he slammed the leaf to draw attention. And yes it is implied that piece could've overtaken Yanqing's last move and he did it in order to let him win.

[@brandonhawker6597]

It's actually been stated by other commenters that the current state of the board before Jing Yuan stole the piece wasn't coincidental, but rather a well-known setup by those who know the game. It was a setup referred to by Masters of the game as "Immortality". In other words, neither side could make a move where they could win. But Yanqinq hadn't noticed, and was too busy trying to win. It's meant to represent the current situation the Xianzhou Luofu finds itself in, with neither the Xianzhou nor the Mara-Stricken really able to come out on top of one another. When Jing Yuan stole the piece, it was essentially him showing that he was willing to do whatever it takes to find a path out of the current situation. The specific piece he stole is known as the "Chariot", which in other cases can be translated to "train". I.e, the Trailblazer. Basically, Jing Yuan hopes that our arrival will be what is required in order to save the Luofu from it's current state. And yes, he stole the piece not so he could win, but so that he could let Yanqinq win. But Yanqinq noticed.

[@madladdie7069]

​@@brandonhawker6597Huh, kind of like how mihoyo used a famous chess game in Winter Nights Lazzo?

[@Harmunee]

As someone who has had their eyes on Jing Yuan since the first time I saw him even before the game was out, I just have to say... Holy shit, your voice for him is SO SEXY. It's something about that darker, and lower pitch of it that just makes me feel things. It's sultry to my ears. BUT the voice also has layers, which makes it even better! I'm the type of person that always pays the greatest attention to voices, it does so much for a character. You did such a fantastic job, and you're honestly starting to become one of my favorite VA's out there!

[@Wikki_Hello]

the thing is that CY YU voiced two general. Cyno from genshin and jing yuan in star rail

[@saland6027]

CYno and jing YUan

[@caviar2744]

I pulled Jing Yuan because he reminds of Zhongli. From having Yan Qing as his kid (ehem Xiao ehem), the Lighting Lord summoning (meteor from sky), chinese fashion to the deep voice. He's perfect!

[@trashbuilds8351]

the contrast between your character energy vs IRL energy is like the difference between Cyno story vs events and i love it!

[@rpgrage7711]

Unrelated to Honkai star rail but related to cy yu being the best voice actors I finally got octopath traveler 2 and stated playing 2 days ago and I picked osvald at random cause I couldn't decide who to start with but I had completely forgotten cy yu voices osvald so I was super surprised but happy at the same time

[@huangjen1123]

There’s a thing where some masters will purposefully lose to build more confidence in their disciple/student! So that’s my guess for why Jing Yuan took his own piece.

[@zayamoone]

Can’t believe Jing Yuan has a Persona. That’s crazy. You see it’s funny because-

[@sed1195]

I'm generally really bias with JP VAs but ever since I've started Genshin and Honkai, hoyo surely knows how to find the gems. I love and enjoy the performances of voices they choose for the game. Esp Cy Yu, he's one of the best!
