I like that they're all doing different things and not they're not afraid to make more given how many people hate Ganyu's playstyle so much.

Dehya's resistance to interruption is an "infinite armor", it's just that it runs out earlier than her skill duration, that's why sometimes you get slapped on.

[@Gilgamesh-em6ru]

you realize what you said contradicts itself. "infinite armor" but it runs out before her skill goes away.

[@pinkius]

@@Gilgamesh-em6ru idk if it's a joke, but "infinite armor" in this case means "infinite resistance to interruption", which also means that you cannot be interrupted no matter what you do for the duration of it. Infinite in this context is not about time, but about strength of the effect.

You can use Baizhu as your healer/ interruption to resistance giver so your other two pyro units can be more flexible especially when your bennet wants to vacation on another team. You also have the benefit of being able to move around more instead of standing in one spot with a bull's eye on your magic hat.

And Lyney benefits from hitting targets being effected by Pyro Aura, so wouldn’t burning keep that on them more consistently?

[@weeb69]

​@shaquillecox5625 except not really because burning consumes aura at a faster rate, so it's really only a potential liability. You'd just use zhongli or dehya if you'd want to use ttds on baizhu, well tough luck, you lose out on bennett buff uptime if you do bennett Q(E) xiangling Q E baizhu EQ

[@Senorgato029]

I’m probably gonna pull for him, I love his design, I kinda like his personality, and he solves the one issue I have with melt ganyu which is that I want to press my other buttons

[@Sunhwk]

tankfei is quite a reliable option too, and she can hold thrilling tales - in case you want to bring Kazuha or other anemo char for vv shred, but don't want to lose the 3 pyro buff. The only downside is that you need her c4. Thoma is kinda eh bc you need to do normal attack to refresh his shield.

[@nobody-xh6ii]

Which is fine honestly to NA if need be. If you have him C6 he also boosts damage and not everyone will always beable to reliably charge attack no matter what team they use. Tankfei is good if you have C4 and high enough HP but thomas burst, layla and zhongli have the strongest shields

[@yumine_]

I did his trial and wtf he did 20-30k per charged without benny. Also unique gameplay I'm so here for it!

[@quantum_btw5403]

idk but Lyney just feels too powerful for me. I probably only say that because I don't own characters like Raiden, Hu Tao, Ayaka or Ganyu. He's my 1st unit who can stand on his own and do massive damage without support. Currently running him with Kazuha, Xiangling and Bennett and seeing those random 100k s pop up from nowhere just feels very satisfying

[@nobody-xh6ii]

Mono pyro is stronger than Hu Tao but Hu Tao wins in reaction. He's just a really flexible unit and isn't restricted to JUST mono pyro if you don't want to. You'd do less damage but his self Buffs make up for it anyways as well as his bow if you have it. He's just an insanely comfy character that's more versatile compared to someone like Hu Tao who NEEDS Yeland AND xingqiu in a team to function

[@yuminamikko5551]

In my opinion, Lyney is so much better playstyle wise when compared to Ganyu. I find her kit the most boring playstyle in Genshin. What I love about Lyney and Tighnari compared to her is the fact her kit is too plain and simple while Tighnari's fast on field gameplay and Lyney's stacking anf burst make it so much fun to play them compared to Ganyu

[@neontricity]

in terms of the team issue, i dont find it much of a problem as you think. i just use lyney and bennett, leaving 2 slots for anyone i want, and his damage is still INSANE. like, he did 250k in the span of 3 seconds using his skill and burst.

It's funny that 'just another Ganyu' could be seen as a reason not to pull... when that was actually one of the reasons I decided to pull for him. Not because I don't have Ganyu (I do) or enjoy her playstyle (I admit I benched her for Ayaka) but... because I don't enjoy Hu Tao and my only other pyro dps option besides her on my account is Diluc. I was so desperate for a new good pyro dps for when pyro is required (specially in Abyss) that hearing he was kinda like Ganyu was a selling point!

Haven't been utilising Zhonli in "harder" content since dendro altered the playing field (mostly been running two dendro teams). Since I lacked a good pyro dps, I pulled for him. After some pain in the new artifact domain, I got him into a working state and love his team. I run Bennet, Zhonli and Kazuha with him and the team kicks butt. It's become my go-to other team, allowing me to spam my Nahida/Raiden/Yelan/Bailu team on whichever side of the abyss. Oh, I also ran him with Zhongli, Raiden and Kokomi in the Wanderer weekly boss domain and that was loads of fun 👍🏻

[@ElTestok]

8:40 I've actually run some tests with my Ganyu and, surprisingly, Lynney's Bow (The First Great Magic) beat out my Amos Bow in almost every scenario. (The only scenario where Amos did more Dmg, and not by much, was with No Reaction, and no Buffs, Simply Charged Shot Bloom.) Otherwise, whether it be Freeze or Melt, with Buffs, FGMagic came out on top. The different Buffers I have tried with Ganyu were Kazuha, Benny, Shenhe, Mona. I think the main reasons why this new bow does so well compared to Amos are: *1)* In Freeze, Ganyu doesn't worry about Charged Shots much, so the High Atk+CritDmg from FGMagic is more useful; *2)* In Melt Teams centered around Ganyu's Charged Shots, Ganyu already has a lot of Charge Atk Dmg with sets like Wanderer's Troupe and Shimenawa. This can make the extra Charge Atk Dmg from Amos a little redundant and can have diminishing returns. While FGMagic, on the other hand, has everything. Same Base Atk, ChargeAtkDmg%, 66%CritDmg, 32%AtkBonus (if using Ganyu + another Cryo). *3)* Finally, in teams with Shenhe, it's Obvious that the Quills can deal exponentially more Dmg with a CritDmg% Bow compared to Amos since the Quills are a Flat Increase and can Crit. I've also played around with Artifacts / stats / weapons using Genshin Optimizer. I have a very good Shimenawa Set, Wanderer's Troupe Set, AND Blizzard Set. Overall, for my account at least, the FGMagic almost always came out on top. When Amos was stronger, the difference was a lot smaller when compared to when FGMagic was stronger. Basically, when FGMacig was stronger, it was stronger by higher margins compared to Amos. So far, the only tests I have done were Freeze and Melt with 2 Cryo units on the team. If I try Mono-Cryo with 3 cryo units, the Bonus Atk% Stacks from FGMagic will be even higher so Amos can't compete lol. I understand everybody is going to have different artifact pieces and stats, so results may vary. Still, I felt a bit sad when I found out about this since I had been using Ganyu for a while, and it took me a long time to get my first Amos. I knew Lyney's Bow was good, but I wasn't expecting it to beat Amos on my Ganyu lol.

At c0, lyney already did 300k aeo no reaction damage. My ganyu needs melt setup n 2 charge to get 300k. So damage wise, lyney is more consistent but ganyu damage ceiling is higher due to melt

[@cosmictrainer2919]

That's not a good judgment, lyney has built in melt in his kit, his passives 2 times his dmg like melt, he doesn't do reactions, reaction dmg is built in in his kit

[@Pardo_Giftshop]

not to mention Ganyu arrow is AoE nuke and hit multiply in long range..

[@somebody-gj6ue]

​​@@Pardo_Giftshopisn't this like amos passive? I don't remember that in ganyu's kit (the multiplier on long range)

[@Pardo_Giftshop]

@@somebody-gj6ue i mean her 3rd charge blooming ice arrow.. its deal AoE cyro dmg..on impact, and yes the multiple dmg bonus on range is Amos passive. the Blooming Ice arrow still counted as range between before it hit the target,.. which means Ganyu can take more advantages from " more range"

[@kktrwa5385]

A huge misconception is that you cant use ganyu's burst in her melt team which is not always true. I aoe situations its better to use her burst, yes the damage of her charged attacks may be less but overall damage of the team will increase as xiangling would be able to melt most of her hits and the ganyus burst itself does quite a bit odmf damage in such cases.

[@uwublee]

I’ve noticed that in morgana actually the first great magic is better than Amos now even with 2 cryo which is amazing!:D

[@Telios__]

oh that was a sick edit where the crystal ball changes to ganyu ult at the start of the video

[@Icarus703]

Does anyone know what song is in the background i would really like to add it to my playlist

[@moneko4925]

Same please

[@peirong]

yes i also really want to know the music name

[@moneko4925]

@icarus703 and @peirong I found it ! Search Donkey Kong Country Returns - Thrill! Gear Flight (or just Gear Getaway from SSBU) istg i knew it was either a genshin ost or a dk one

[@peirong]

@@moneko4925 thank you!!!

[@Discoveri_]

Accidentally got Lyneys weapon, but I’m using it on tighnari, so it’s put to good use

[@alistairborthwick2031]

How does a mono pyro team deal with enemy shields? Just blunt force, claymore etc? Sounds slow for Abyss?

[@TekkatV2]

I love the Charge Shot characters so much

[@shhj0_32]

posted one minute ago?? damn

[@Randomtime12]

Me… A Ganyu main… Do I need to say that I love Lyney?😅

[@aliounethiaw1443]

Large atk cant knock you back when you have dehya's interruption RES, just like Raiden's burst or any shield. But dehya's interruption RES has a 9s uptime so it will end before the skill ends. Thats why you get knocked back while the skill is active

[@aqwandrew6330]

why not use layla?

[@Squeed0]

I will always use Ganyu as my main cryo charged shot, SHES thé best and I love her sm

[@lightishredgummi9654]

had about 200 wishes saved and spent them all on lyney and his weapon lol. first time pulling on the weapon banner, and it was mostly an aesthetic choice! the thought of ganyus playstyle had never appealed to me but from the tiny taste I got from lyneys trial, I at least don't think I'll be _frustrated_ by it lol. I've been itching for another character/team to main that ISN'T anemo damage focused but I'm weirdly picky about which characters I'll actually build. luckily, lyney scratches that itch AND the characters I'll be using with him are already built (I didn't have such luck with nahida or kaveh) I am just now realizing that he won't be as much of a change as I thought he would be since it's still single element damage lmao. I still won't be playing any reaction focused teams!

[@sorhsee]

Little bit of misinformation here - first great magic in its currently released version is actually one of the best if not the best generalist bow for Ganyu. Additionally, Amos is actually one of her worse 5-star options in most teams and gets outplayed by 4-star craftables. Even in teams where ganyu is the sole cryo unit, the 16% CA bonus, CV, and 16% attack make it equal to hunter's path in melt, and better in high-ping and AoE due to the way hunter's path's buff works. In freeze/mono cryo it's second best only to polar star, but arguably better because the cdmg instead of crate sub makes it easier to build 4pc blizzard strayer. If the current bow banner is as good as it gets for lyney, that's even more true for ganyu. If you want a 5-star bow you can use in both melt and freeze, you're basically rolling on her #1 and #2 unconditional options.

[@danielferrieri7434]

I'm only going to do the Fontaine Story once I get Lyney

[@xd_liz6391]

I was so excited when I saw my five star and now my wanderer is happy with his new dehya

[@vieripakpahan1912]

the first time i use lyney, it feels a bit weird due to his quite complex mechanic. but after several trials im starting to get used to it and event tempted to pull! he's pretty much fun to play and yet a very reliable damage dealer but im saving for wriostheley for now, let's hope for lyney's rerun

[@nobody-xh6ii]

He should. All new characters get a rerun within 4-5 months

[@KMakoENVtuber]

Got Lyney on the first 10 pull, but I’m not sure if he’ll stand against Tighnari’s shotgun like charged shot.

[@LongDeadArtist]

Mono pyro and higher multipliers would guarantee it

[@Ulquiorra_Cifer]

generally, morgana is the best option for groupable enemies, tighnari is the best for bosses and single target content, melt ganyu and lyney are kinda similar cuz they are decent into everything

[@hiymecorp.258]

Everyone over here worried about shield meanwhile I’m over here dogging shots left and right like I’m in elden ring.

[@pyroprince677]

I’m thinking bout using the 3 star messenger bow just bc it matches his outfit so well even tho I have all the 5 star bows 😢

[@trevann8213]

I'm very curious how this character will do paired with my current kuki main and chongyun that I use to get more element reaction and to make kuki still good when electric isn't effective but still be a godly healer but I want a decent fire option on the side. What do you think, he seems very interesting and the healing will go great with him I think but would I be better with yoimiya and I would have to wait for her when I could get him now so I really want to know

[@nobody-xh6ii]

It should work. I'm using raiden, baizhu and nahida since lc 20 1/1/1 talents and killing things super easily. He was wielding a lv 80/90 aqua r2 bow and mid tier wanderers troupe from my tighnari. I'm working on his bow and he's 70/80 now. He's one of the more versatile units that, while his best IS mono pyro, you can use other teams and NOT feel like you HAVE TO run that as your only option. I find myself using NA alot so I'm adding Thomas to the party. I just wish he was C6 for the talent to help boost Lyney's talent more. Debating on the other 2 members from there.

[@trevann8213]

@nobody-xh6ii I was mostly planning on using him solely for enemies that will die way faster from a good fire character and waiting till I'm at 30 wishes, 26 so far

[@nonagon7385]

I gotta wonder what the math is on Lyney Bennett Kazuha Zhongli is above having Xiangling and Zhongli, you get VV and the dmg bonus that way

[@irinavs]

i have been waiting for a male ganyu!! lyney is so fun

[@Mafuyu24542]

I’ll just be happy seeing the meta shift from Cryo and Dendro for a little bit

[@nobody-xh6ii]

There's a cyno meta? Or are you talking about overseas where everyone tested C6 characters and he was definitely in the meta tier? Because AFAIK no one in NA likes him because they hate investment and its why they love characters like Ayaka, Hu Tao and Yelan

[@tatamigaIaxy]

@@nobody-xh6ii they said cryo meta, like ayaka and ganyu cryo

[@reincarnatedtobuildaharem]

The team I'd probably have with him is Lynette, Kazuha, Bennett, and Lyney. I'll just rely on his taunt and dodge appropriately

[@kaga.mine.]

why 2 anemo lol

[@reincarnatedtobuildaharem]

@@kaga.mine. cuz both of them have a talent that gives bonus damage for the infused element no?

[@miuletzmitzu6641]

@@reincarnatedtobuildaharem You're losing dmg if you also have his signature, even if lynette also gives bonus dmg (and if it overlaps with kazuha's, cause im not sure it even does in the first place) its still smaller than the 3 pyro buff lyney gets

[@itsSmiv]

​@@reincarnatedtobuildaharembuff from 3 pyro is better. Best to have 3 pyro and 1 vv anemo

[@Squilliam50]

Lenny has really grown on me when I first saw him I did not like him now I must resist the urge to pull cuz I wanted zhongli since the day I started

[@vincikeeper1581]

Now we just need hydro/geo/anemo/electro charged bow units.

[@sypher_moon]

There are ways to keep tighnari on the field and it's super fun

[@Kafkaesque1590]

I want this guy, I really loved his gamestyle but the only thing is I don’t want to use 3 pyro characters in one team. I don’t like mono teams and I will feel like it would be waste for all my other characters that I was working on for so long.

[@latioshunter]

Farming the new set may take all version....but at least Emblem is in the Strongbox, so it wont kill me too much

[@LongDeadArtist]

I'm just going for that massive cat in his burst

[@sed1195]

When I say, I'm not a big fan of pyro chars. I'm really not. So far I only have Benny and Yoimiya at 90. Obviously Benny for many team comps but I really do hardly play Yoimiya. Don't really like her gamestyle but rolled for her because of her story quest 2. However, Lyney IS SO FUN!!! Also his damage is super satisfying and it's easy to build him. I don't have Dehya but I zhongli for now until I can get her but for now it's kazu, benny, zhongli and lyney. Might lvl xiangling to add in for support and dmg boost later

[@eldritkh6672]

Dehya great as the third option with Bennett

[@supreme.__.]

Imagine a co-op will players only using different charge shot bow characters
