Pulled Xiao, Mona C2 and Diluc C1.
Xiao sucks even when fully maxed out.
He is A tier at best, but he belongs in B tier with Support Amber and Support Barbara.
Becoming Jim Carey in The Mask allows for temporary one shots but his energy recharge is nonexistent so it’s never online when needed.
“But he was broken in his trial run.”
He was lvl80 (enemies were lvl70), had perfect artifacts, was given the Jade Spear instead of the Favonius Spear, was C5, had maxed out Talents for lvl80 and the trial dungeon had an energy generation modification which gave 10 energy per kill.
He was powered up further than other trial characters have been in their trials and he was still shoddy.
He’s pure dogshit, better than Qiqi but that’s not really a contest.
I will Leviathan for Walnut because her C6 is mind bogglingly stupid and she cute.
Oceanid isn't that bad tbh. I personally find Anemo Hypo marginally harder and the new Primo Geovishap trumps either of them by virtue of having attacks I can't just iframe through.
Heads up for those curious about Rosaria and Walnut’s viabilities. And reasons to want these characters.
Rosaria is a cryo polearm user who has a life drain E. Her ult is a grounded version of Ganyu’s ult but it lashes out at enemies with shadowy ice vines.
She’s got a high crit rate as a cryo character (Jade Spear plus CR artifacts get her up to about 65% crit rate) but her passive is beyond useless.
Her passive gives the team 25% (iirc) faster move speed at night in game. ~8 minutes worth of extra speed...
Hu Tao is a pyro polearm user who has a self sustaining berserker play style. Think Xiao but on every kind of steroid imaginable.
She has a life drain E like Rosaria but it has a catch, you need to kill an enemy for some health gain. Not that great but she mows down mobs like no other. Lvl 10 E gets 8.67% health per kill.
Her ult is stupidly overpowered, she becomes ethereal and can pass through enemies and barriers they create. During Butterfly mode, her damage output skyrockets in response to the difference in current health to max health at time of ult.
Her passive is technically pointless, it allows you to cook suspicious versions of food as a 12% extra.
However, Hu Tao’s C6 makes her unkillable. She lives through oneshots and lethal damage every 30 seconds and immediately ults in response. Unbelievably broken, but C6 5*s should be.
Ayaka seems to be getting nerfs, but she’s no longer the cryo sword Mona, ie really dumb combo potential and extreme CC capabilities.
Alright boys, here’s your Pyro Claymore loli.

The beta she’d be in was killed because miHoYo bought a private testing team for all future betas, but according to a credible leak she’ll have a fisticuffs mode similar to Childe’s Stances.

You too? I’m just glad they didn’t find my slaves, half-eaten bodies of women’s corpses, DIY nukes, and my thousands of kilos of coke and fentanyl.
@anotherrat
Are you surprised? Weebs and pedophiles have some serious, unfortunate overlap.
