Since Natlan’s coming around soon, I thought it’d be fun to rank my top 5 favourite units in Genshin Impact when it comes to gameplay & feel as of Version 4.8. Since perhaps Natlan will dramatically change things!

i’ll say it here as well: this video is GAMEPLAY-FOCUSED. it is NOT meta-focused or design/lore focused! anyways, with that being said, funny how all my preferred units were released during fontaine: makes me wonder if natlan will blow it out of the park! 1 more week of vacation, plenty of natlan-focused videos starting from next monday when i’m back! 😀
P.S, cryo is my favourite overall element to play. this is because i enjoy all of wrio, ganyu & ayaka, whereas in geo, navia is the only one i really enjoy etc. for those wondering why my t5 has no cryos

can i give you my C5 Sethos? all i wanted was a bennet and i got 5 copies of sethos, nothing else.
Furina is universal.
The only thing I don't like in Xianyun.. when u getting interrupted while using her skill 😂 it's so damn annoying. Especially when you know that without it u may not have an energy later, haha. But agree about the other things! Peace bro
same bro… cryo is my favourite element too… Wrio main🤜🏻🤛🏻
My personal list would probably be:
1. Hu Tao
2. Ganyu
3. Xianyun
4. Kazuha
5. Yelan
Honorable mentions:
Arlecchino, Yae Miko, Xiao, Childe, Raiden.
Honestly, out of all eight characters shown in the Natlan trailer none of them interest me. I'm only going for the Pyro Archon's C2 because outside of the first two, the Archon's are now must-pulls in my opinion.
Waiting for Xianyun 🫠
I agree with Clorinde top 5 100%, I think she will always get new team mates and see use, in an elemental reaction based game, she is top tier
😂damn Juice thought you said you going on vacation
Navia and Xianyun look really fun. I'd like to get them next time, but I've been playing since 3.7 so I still have a lot of catching up to do with other 5 stars. I ended up getting Clorinde and Arlecchino instead of Navia this time.
Plunge Arlecchino with Xianyun works really well too.
My top 5 "favourite" playable characters as for 4.8
1) Neuvillete
2) beidou
3) wanderer
4) childe
5) xingqiu
These are what I enjoy most whilst playing. Ofc there are many others too
list was so shit ngl
ATTACK‼️‼️‼️‼️
Cloud Retainer mains when not on Cloud Retainer: e -> oh this not…. -> the not Cloud Retainer dead at the bottom of a cliff
I'm not even annoyed anymore, endlessly hilarious
My faves
1- Furina: best buffer and allows for some fun team comps, ten outta ten!
2 – Wanderer: Sending enemies flying while running Yelan and Xingqiu never falis to be funny, and yes, I run him without a shielder for bonus points and so that I can slot Faru
3 – Arlecchino: Her rotation flexibility made me sold on her. Too bad she was mean to me on her banner (250 pulls just to get her C0 and no sign weapon)
4- Clorinde: my best single 10 pull of this game, loved her fast-paced gameplay and her team flexibility. Kinda considering on getting her weapon, since I ddin't pull it on her first run cause I was saving for Furina's second con and Splendor of Tranquill Waters.
5- Navia: I loved her gunbrella nuking style and not being locked to mono-geo style (I don't think the archetype is bad, it's just that I have a terrible luck). I'm hoping to get Chiori C1 so that she replaces Zhongli and allows me to do something spicier, like a Furina-Sige team comp
Honorable Mentions
Neuvillette: he's a great anti-abyss BS and this this fact for itself makes me appreciate him
Sigewinne: I tried her out on Imaginary theater as healer for Wanderer-Furina team and I was delighted (since Wanderer doesn't benefit from Xianyun as much as Xiao does). She's on my books.
Yae Miko: There's some fun on EEEQEEE that I can't explain well
I appreciate the love for the voice actors. They really bring the characters to life. I find myself hooked on my defense and healer units like Baizhu and Zhongli. But man, Arlecchino rips, absolutely devastating and looks incredible doing it. So fun! Great picks, Juice!
Only peak limited char you should have is… Nahida, Yelan, Kazuha, Baizhu, Arle, Neuvillete, Xianyun, Furina, Nilou, Al-haitam, Raiden
Wait where's neuvillette
meta d – riding is strong on this one huh
of course venti and xiao is in your top 5. i knew there was a reason i didnt like you.
Navia, Noelle, Arlo…. Yelan…. Furina. Was Ayaka.
And people talked sht on Xianyun when she actually helps me alot 💀.
But also i pulled for yelan and got her in 50 pulls. I have 120 pulls left. Imma use some money in 5.0 to get mualani and the character that will run with her.
for me:
1. Heizou. i'm biased because he's my favourite character but i love punching everything to death. same reason i pulled for wriothesley over neuvillette
2. xianyun. i wasn't interested in her initially until i used her as a trial character in an event and then i knew i needed to get her. no regrets
3. navia. she's really strong and it's fun shooting everything with the gunbrella. i use her with my albedo, xiangling and bennett and you get so many crystalise shields which makes it even better
4. furina. honestly the voice acting carries her animations, not that theyre bad. i couldnt think of a better va for her than her english va. letting the buddies destroy everything is really fun
5. yae miko. i honestly wasn't a fan of her character but her play style is so much fun.
honourable mentions:
childe – riptide shredding everything is always fun
ayato – spamming normals and watching big numbers come out is awesome
lyney – the cats and animations make him really fun to use. he refuses to give me good artifacts though
faruzan – sometimes i swap all my heizou artifacts onto her and use her as a main dps. always very fun
alhaitham – charge-attacking everything and using mirrors to make everything die is fun
wriothesley – same reason as heizou but i havent built him yet because other fontaine characrers have been higher priorities
emilie – i pulled for her because she looks like saki from pjsk and stayed because i really enjoy watching everything burn
there are probably more honourable mentions but those are the ones i can think of
Chiori with constellations is my favourite in gameplay. She just rolls up with 4 dolls like "Me and my army of rolling eyes" and it's just hilarious and fantastic.
I can never remember her name, So I just say Cloud Retainer
My top 5, based on gameplay favorites:
Furina
Neuvillette
Nahida
Raiden Shogun
Kokomi
Hoyo rlly stepped up their character design in fontaine.
Ohhhh you’re that person who thinks Sethos is bad because his kit “contradicts” when in reality he is good, and his kit gives you 2 different choices on how to play him.
