My day 1 impressions of the new 5 star Cryo bow unit, Ganyu. I go over everything I learned on day 1, talk about the buff to her burst, her skill mechanics, and weapon and artifact options.

Thanks for explaining the Amos vs Slingshot mechanics to me folks, it all makes sense now!
P.S. That cameo segment wasn't meant as a negative jab at Demone in any way, absolutely zero hate here folks! I just thought it was funny cos I was having such a hard time with Ganyu when I watched his video.
Demone always says every new character is insane and power creeps old ones, even Zhongli lawl. His videos stopped being objective a long time ago 😴. That said, she's easier to use than I expected, but she might not be universally easy for everyone to use.
Shield wielding Enemies are just BROKEN Krush it's ridiculous that a tiny ass Hilichurl with an even tinier Shield can block Claymores double or even triple their size all-day as well as them blocking AoE dmg from the Bloom will facing you their Shield isn't a Shield at all it's a 360° Bubble that absorbs all DMG and since Mob's don't have stamina they are just broken strong.
The shield wielding mobs can indeed be annoying. I need to “git gud,” but I think there is a way around it. Taunt + hitting from the side/back perhaps. Also, I’ve found that if you aim the shot at the ground, the blossom will still sometimes hit. I need to figure out how to do that consistently.
I’m having a lot of fun with her. I still don’t know the best team to use with her as a main DPS. I have forgone reaction comps so far, but maybe that isn’t wise. I haven’t tried her with Mona yet either.
Do u think ganyu can outdamage diluc?
My man keepin' it real! This is why I subbed to your channel. You play for enjoyment, not the meta. Stay the course, good sir!
You want to treat her bow like a rocket launcher at longer ranges, the bloom damage scales up much harder at higher talent levels.
also, one thing I found that worked really well with her was in how I changed my controller layout slightly, I went for a more Dark souls control set up, I swapped dodge and basic attack. what this does is I can use the charge shot without needing to go into aim mod, I can just hold basic attack, and I can control the camera better.
I get more valuable information from this video than from other Genshin youtuber with their whale account. Appreciate the content Krush
Nobody can resist the waifu.
But yeah, knowing how you build your team, ganyu seems to be a bit lost… She shine best on elemental base team comp
For me currently she fit in as Klee support to replace Fischl and I intend to Build her as charge shot DPS as well. Ganyu mechanic click with me so well that I use all Fischl resource for her (feel pretty bad for Fischl)
I don't think you need to double down on 4 piece cryo. you need a minimum of 45% crit rate so long as you have cryo resonance to reach 100% crit.
5% character crit, 20% from talent, 15% from resonance, and 20% from the artifact set.
Even that much is overkill. But as you can see, frozen is not necessary
Hey krush sg at 7 minute mark for shielded enemies, have you tried shooting behind them? (At the floor obviously) The rocket launcher she uses has a pretty large aoe and just wondering if she can yeet them to space with that ass blast.
Good luck on pulling for ganyu folks
there's a wierd thing that happens to shielded enemies when you aim upwards, apparently
Don't worry man, you're just not used to bow users.
Hope slingshot is bugged and we get apologems because I haven’t got any of the four stars to use on her
I got my 1st Diluc from 50/50 pity, which I think is great. Next banner hope to be Xiao, then is confirmed pity. Even tho Ganyu is good as said by many content creators, I prefer full view during combat rather than having to stay in aim mode most of the time.
you should said, you WEAK hahahah like person play call of duty or battlefield getting last place always many excuse… 😛
🌸❤️I cannot believe that I find myself praising a bow user, however, Ganyu is an absolute beast and incredibly fun to play. I thought that I would pull only one copy of her, but after obtaining her and a bit of experimentation with setups, I decided to whale her to C6. Oh my word, what a Titan she is❤️🌸
bro run her with xingqiu xiangling and bennett 😉
I am just going to use her to kill Timmy's pigeons
K A N Y E
I used up all my primogems on albedo banner now I can C6 noelle
After playing with Ganyu a lot this day I find that she isn't the best Cryo Aura for Klee, Klee do so much pyro dmg that after 1 or two melts with 200% Ganyu start to melt the Pyro of Klee the only time you get Ganyu Cryo application first is with a lot of enemies group with sucrose or venti but with 3 or less enemies Klee do too much pyro for Ganyu to keep up.
Also the reason you feel bad about aiming in this game is that the vertical sensibility is HALF the horizontal one, so if you have to aim up or down you have a very poor and sluggish feeling. Still I enjoy Ganyu a lot, I was in the same boat as you but the hype and the videos mae me roll for her and I don't regret it. My only regret is no having a Protorype Crescent for her and using a BP Bow make have way over 100% crit even without Froze comp with Cryo set.
6:06 That movie brings back memories. But yes, I also suck at bow users. Watching you having trouble with Ganyu felt like watching myself with Amber(only bow user I have leveled). Going close ranged, and dodging is just less hassle. You don't have to charge anything or run away if an enemy gets near you. Your view of the entire screen is also not limited the moment you enter charged mode.
the learning curve for charged attack is not that steep, maybe a week or two of practice is enough to have a high accuracy when using her
the first gameplay clip was hilarious haha, ty for video always appreciate your points of view
funny about ganyu it look like it design for boomer hand since u can aim at floor to trigger AOE bloom…LOL
You sound like dono voice in twitch
I love the content tho
I'm raising up my Ganyu cause she is my only other cryo character besides Kaeya… No Chongyun or Diona. Haha! It's funny how my first ever gacha cryo character happens to be a five star. Although she is tricky to use on mobile, but Venti is a huge help in that regard.
However, now I'm wondering if I should continue working on Childe's fireworks comp or switch my focus over to building a team with Ganyu. Childe has by far the most investment out of any of my characters, but that cool down of his is difficult to manage consistently. Plus I have Venti, which is so good for Ganyu! Maybe Childe can be sub dps in her comp but… Hm. I still have my C6 Fischl. It's not easy to decide when you have so many options.
Krush Sg you again open the eyes of genshin players. I wached Demone video just before yours and there was an impression in me that she is broken. But after your honest opinion and the problems you mentioned using her charge shots it literally opened my eyes. Once again thanks. Because of you i will same my primogems for future characters. Don't stop making videos about new characters.
easiest bow unit is fischel
AARR
2 peice cryo 2 peice noblesse is my build I like it a lot Idk if it the best but it works. I think you can find a place even if it mostly for her q I believe in you and your determination. Good luck.
I just knew your channel through a friend of mine when i said to him i want to build dps noelle. Your videos are terrific, so can i ask your opinion on using jean with noelle and how should i build jean?
I got the amos bow from standard banner soft pity the other day. I was planning on skipping Ganyu and saving for Xiao (F2P and my next 5* on character banner is guaranteed to be limited character, also I want Ningguang cons and she's probably gonna be in the Xiao banner). After learning that the amos passive increases the already huge frostflake damage, I'M VERY CONFLICTED
Subtitles on: i hadnt planned to pull for kanye
Cool, thanks. I want her but I got Mona 🙁
The slingshot isnt bugged. The bloom takes 0.3 seconds to do damage after the initial hit, so its just that its not in the time window.
oh God Youtube, please give my Archon of Math MORE subscribers
you're one of the best gamer youtube channels out there. thank you so much for the in-depth guides. more power to you sir!
