Sorry if the video felt rushed! I wanted to get this out today so I recorded it on my lunch break and knocked out the editing as quick as I could!
With that being said, are you going to wish on any banners this time around?
Hoyo knows that when the banner drops, it will be a virtual casino table. Gotta play that demo music while rolling trying to win that 50/50.
Also, Yelan is one kinky mommy. There, I said it.
C1 R1 mommy and honestly I’m a dolphin and don’t care about 4 stars unless they are new
In FonZ’s last video, I commented my thoughts on Fischl’s character demo. The next one after is supposed to be Venti’s demo, but since this video is so heavily Yelan focused, I feel like it’d be a bit off to talk about the Anemo Archon’s demo video under a video about Yelan’s own character demo. I might come back here after I finished sending all the other demo reviews in order to talk about Yelan’s demo, if that’s what FonZ wants
Honestly, ill wish for Yelan becuase I got ganyu as main dps but i can turn her to a support for Yelan
But…I want a C6 Noelle D:
unless you’re a new player the 4 stars literally dont matter
Does Anyone notice when the guy shoot arrow to her and she use a treasure hoarder to block it and the thing is the arrow go straight to his a$$ 😭
Yelan banner sucks but if you are just pulling in the banner for Yelan, it is kinda good especially if you already have the three 4s at C6, atleast you get some more wishes to help reach pity. 😂
You're absolutely right haha haha…. As you know I'm not f2p… (Far from it haha) but some of the newer 4* I'm still quite low on constellations… So yeah I'd love to see some of these newer 4*s featured on banners and less Barbara and Noelle (as much as I love both of these characters.) Also I feel like they should always put the new 4* on the same banner as the new 5*s. Cause now even though I really want kuki, I kinda don't wanna roll there because I don't have itto cons haha haha…. I may just wait for a rerun (for the very first time!) The weapon banner however is great hmm…. I may try my luck on that haha haha. I can use either of these 5* weapons.
I'm saving my primos. Not big on any of the banners. Waiting for 2.8
I main Yanfei on one of my teams, but just got her to C6, so the 4 stars are a bit useless to me…gotta see Yelan's full kit and multipliers before I decide to pull or not
At this point I'm used to every banner char I want to have Barbruh and Noelle. There's a reason my Fischl's still not c6
I would use the new 5-star bow with Diona and the event 4-star bow with Fischl for Support Oz.

As for the characters, I'm skipping Yelan and just pull on Xiao banner because of my 50/50 chance.
They desperately need to give 4star chars, as well as 4star and 3star weapons, so the stuff F2P players end up with 95% of the time, a little love again. Most of the weapons have been in the game since the first 2-3 months with zero updates. And they seriously slowed down on dropping 4star characters recently. I get that's not where their money is coming from, but it's not like it requires a ton of money to do either, at least for the weapons.
I'm gonna go card count at her casino lol
II: “Venti: A Bard’s Business”
“An Ordinary Bard of Mondstadt”
Another one of the very early trailers. If you compare it to the other trailers that come afterwards, it appears to be very lacking. That said, that does not mean the trailer is without it’s merits. We can tell that the marketing team was doing some more experimenting as this trailer was initially released with only Japanese dubbing on the English YouTube. The English dubbed version was released later on as an additional way to promote Venti’s rerun banner during a Mondstadt-related event, the event that promoted Rosaria.
The story of this trailer is simple, and while being simple isn’t a negative mark, it is just a tad bit weird that a random Cicin Mage just came up to attack Venti. Literally, just one Cicin Mage with no other help. Every other cinematic trailer has a more reasonable reason for making the character do what they do. One other funny thing I can point out is the fact that we get to see the Cicin Mage’s older, less detailed design in this trailer, more proof that this trailer is a relic of Genshin’s history. In EVERY single one of these trailers, the music is always amazing. Yu-Peng Chen and the people who helped him at HoYo-MiX absolutely carry the energy of practically all of these trailers. I will tell you, Genshin Impact would NOT be the same without him.
The lyre Venti plays at the start is considered a part of the song and is included as such in the official OST release, but I personally consider that part to be diegetic, not that that distinction matters in this context. Cicin Mage’s musical entrance is ominous, in line with the musical motifs given to all of the other Fatui related characters ahem Tartaglia’s and Signora’s battle themes are masterpieces *cough cough*. Just a small set up for conflict before Venti’s real theme kicks in. Predominately fast-paced string instruments on top of impactful percussion to really give this whimsical plus happy go lucky feeling to suit Venti’s character. I could be wrong but I think the bass slowly becomes overtaken by an electric guitar near the beginning part, and those two instruments still fit Venti’s motif because they are both still string instruments (yes I can imagine Venti shredding a guitar).
Most of the future cinematic trailers have quick flashes of text that you’re required to pause to fully read. In Venti’s trailer, the text appears at 1:06. I will include this text at the end of every future comment when available. Otherwise, I’ll have something else there instead. Anyways… The musical passage that starts at 1:15 with the violin gives me a mix of a variety of feelings. There is this tinge of cunning playfulness as well as this sort of “resistance” feeling that reminds me of drawing a bowstring. Kinda funny when you have to literally “pull” on a “bow” to play this part on the violin. There is this sort of build up where multiple strings on the violin are being “scratched”, which is what I like to refer to double/triple stops as (it sounds like a double stop here but I don’t play violin, take that with a grain of salt). Right afterwards is a very high tremolo which to me represents the arrow being released, vibrating as it flies and breaks through the resistance in the air.
Also at 1:15 you can see the magic circle Venti uses in his Elemental Skill forming behind him. This Magic Circle is in fact a compass, the Anemo symbol being used to represent North. Not that it actually points to in-game North, it just faces wherever Venti is facing. For some reason the magic circle compass is reminding me of Fate/Stay Night. Wonder what Venti would do if he was a Master, Command Spells and everything.
“FULL OF MYSTERY, BORN FROM THE BRANCHES OF TIME
A HISTORY OF GLORY AND SORROW, AND WITNESS TO THE DIVINE”
I wonder if this channel will become a Zenless Zone Zero channel once the game officially releases
This is like the most painful thing to accept, imo XD
So, story time, I missed Xiao and his previous banner by like a few weeks or a month or whatever. Saw some clips of him and fell in love, man. I accepted my fate that I won't even be able to get him until like 2023 or something XD But then, magical leak and a half, I hear he's coming back. Pretty fast too. Other people were like upset, but I couldn't have been happier:) Until… I saw his damn banner.
Like, bro, we just had a terrible banner!!! (In my opinion. Mainly because I main Kaeya, so no reason to pull for Ayaka. Yes, despite how good she is. I don't play Razor, I also don't want Sayu. I wouldn't have minded(?) Rosaria, but it just wasn't the banner for me). A banner that was prolonged for such a big chunk of time at that XD Now we have Xiao's banner. I WANT, like REALLY WANT, Xiao… But it's gonna be a sacrifice because I don't want any of the 4-stars. Yanfei, I don't main anymore. Barbara, I've got Diona and Bennett. Noelle is the only one I can semi-work with, MAINLY for another shielder. Other than that, I've already got a main DPS in Ningguang.
So here I am. Facing the bittersweet reality of this banner XD Not to mention the fact that I'm going to be missing my chance at a C1 Bennett because I haven't been summoning all this time. Yes, I could just spam summon for Xiao AND for the glitters, but… This banner, bro XD I heard Yoimiya is coming around the corner as well!! Whether that's true or not is also hurting me because I want her as well! I enjoy playing with her and I actually wanna play with her, aha. She's someone I'm a bit more flex about, though. Mainly because I have my Pyro main in Diluc. Also, because I don't even have a good enough(?) bow for her, aha. I've only got the standard prototype bow and Fischl is using it. (Yes, I can swap and whatnot, but this is a reason still.) I've got Sacrifical and the other energy recharge bow, but nothing of like Main DPS worth bows. So I'm just sad all around because of this poopy banner XD
TL;DR I'm stressed tf out and this Xiao banner is the cause of it.
