  1. Thanks for comparison. I wanted this.
    I don't have Nahida so I'd love a video comparison Nahida and Alhaitham and who is a better pull? What makes them different and in which scenario who will be better etc.
    Thanks again! 🙂

  2. They keep posting that the Chinese leakers on NGA said that he received ANOTHER NERF and that now he is 60% – 70% of the original (The current one is at 80%). Lmao poor guy must have slept with Da Wei's wife.

  3. Thanks for the overview. I have Nahida and Tighnari so I'll wait for Alhaitham's second banner before I decide if I want/need him. I don't really like his kit and the nerf really made him less desirable. Besides that, Nahida can do everything he does just fine. I'm disappointed because I was looking forward to him from day one of Sumeru. I guess I will be pulling for Yelan and Baizhu as we already know how strong Yelan is and Baizhu will likely be strong just because he's (probably) a dendro healer.

  4. Honestly, my Tighnari is well-built enough for me to wait for Al Haitham's rerun. Especially since we have no clue who will be running with his debut banner yet. If it's Shenhe or Yelan, I'm definitely waiting for his rerun. I have all of the other Dendro characters and that's enough for now.

    Great video and thanks for the comparison!

  5. I got Tiggy while pulling for Scara and now I guess I have 2 dendro dps (might make tiggy a sub dps idk) but it's so funny how that works out.

    I dont have to worry about one or the other, I can use both now hehe

  6. A big chunk of Fischl's value is the C6 coordinated attack with normal attacks. Tighnari doesn't take advantage of this, but Al Haitham can. The longer rotations would also synergize better with a character like Yea Miko. I played quit a bit with Tighnari, and he's much better than I anticipated. Still, he's not the easiest character to get value out of, and his multi-target DPS is really lacking.

  7. I think the real question is, is any other dedro unit needed if the archon craps on all of them? Alhait is gonna be more fun to play then either 1 bc he is just keqing 2.0 with zhonglis swag and composure in his combos

  8. I'm hoping I can use him in a Nilou bloom team with Nilou, Xingqiu, Al Haitham, and either Yaoyao or Barbara. I'm thinking to build Al Haitham full EM to be the one to proc the boom seeds, but will need to see if there is too much dendro application to override the hydro. If there is, I may have to go Barbara.

  9. What a great post this is. I like your study on his pros and cons. the tighnari comparison and his rotation discussion are very insightful with different characters from other elements. excellent job!

  10. Easy Explanation Alhaitham’s Kit:
    (using Razor language)😃

    S-K-I-L-L
    – infuses dendro (tap or hold). can’t be overriden.
    – gives 2 mirrors (if you have 0 mirrors).
    – charge or plunge gives 1 additional mirror.
    – max 3 mirrors. each mirror 4 seconds.
    – more mirrors, longer dendro infusion.

    AoE mirror attacks procc when hitting enemies depending on number of mirrors you have:

    3 mirrors = dendro scimitar rain (2x in 4 seconds)

    2 mirrors = huge shuriken slash (2x in 4 seconds)

    1 mirror = bevel rend (2x in 4 seconds)

    B-U-R-S-T
    – more mirrors, longer burst duration, more damage.

    – after burst, receive mirror refunds depending on how many mirrors you possess when burst was cast:

    0 mirrors + burst = refund 3 mirrors
    1 mirror + burst = refund 2 mirrors
    2 mirrors + burst = refund 1 mirror
    3 mirrors + burst = refund 0 mirror

    attack animation visually similar to keqing’s. but alhaitham’s internal mechanics are different. i like rabbit meat.

  11. Nah 😂 Tighnari is way more better in quick swap team.
    But Al Hailtham is really good if you're planning to make Driver in Dendro reaction. Al Hailtham have mirror stack mechanics.
