Lyney seems to be quite boring, and I am not interested in his kit what so ever. I really liked the magic idea, but don’t think they executed very well. I hoped for something cooler, and I will be skipping him for sure.

  1. What would've been a better gameplay design for Lyney imo rather than using a bow is to make him a catalyst user and make his attack animations throw flaming deck of cards or something cuz it would fit more with his magician theme, however im not gonna give my opinion on his appearance since some people like the look of a tiktok femboy cosplaying as a magician with a BDSM fetish.

  2. Idk whats wrong…but lyney was literally revealed in version 1.0 ….no one hated his looks that time ( i assume) but now wheh he is about to get released everyone is saying he looks like girl and stuff…just play whatever character u like why talk bad. About it? I mean game will have many waifus and husbandos in future if u dont want lyney just skip i mean why create a drama

  3. Imo, in a world where the gods (well Archons) rule and walk amongst the people and visions are a thing, magic performances/tricks like Lyney's kind of loses the appeal/mysteriousness you would expect in a magic-less/real world… I would have preferred it if he and Lynette were given Assassin type skills/kits, but oh well….

    Probably will still pull for at least one copy for the 3 new Fontaine characters just for their regional bonuses 😅

  4. Puts an ad in his 9 minute video, advertises another game for about 15% of the video, calls Kirara Keyana. You didn’t even consider the artifact set which will improve his damage, who’s is a pro against the cons of his boring kit. This video is just as bad as Lyney’s kit.

  5. I agree, mono pyro is not my favorite idea of a team, and neither does another charge shot character. But then again, I haven’t wished for a new character in like 3 months so I’ve got a ton a wishes waiting to be spent, so just to have a new character to play with, I’ll probably be getting him

  6. With this mentality, all character you see will only be a trash for you. Just stop the genshin and play other games to distract yourself and dont come back to genshin. It will only make it worst for you, when the character does not meet your expectation.

  7. I have to agree where his gameplay is noy what i A wanted or B expected. But ive wanted this character literally so long, since that one genshin storyline trailer like 2-3 years ago lol. So imma pull for him 😭.

  8. his burst reminds me of kirara and fischl…it feels like a 4 star burst or skill. I can see it working as an evasive thing- like some bosses are so big that they are in your face with two steps- so mayhaps his burst is meant to be a damage dodge like scarymoose's wind arrows on his skill dash…. but that seems like.. gosh I dont wanna be mean- it feels like a bit of a waste to make that his burst. A damage dodge seems like a better talent to put as a skill, at least in a five star. and I dont like that he is likely going to take over what area of expertise that yoimiya has. i am still likely to pull him because he is a funky lil dude and he finds the specialties (and mostly because I want frem, cons for frem if I can because phsyical is such a fun mechanic- but I am at pity but I have childe and pepaw already) but… yeah his kit is not my favorite. His personality is fun though. if he works well that would be cool, charged shot bow is my favorite play style, but I am not sure if he is going to beat out yoyo for me- and if he does i will be big sad about it because yoyo is human shaped sunshine. I feel like lyney's kit would be easier to reconcile with if he was going on the standard. Now watch police papa worthy be cracked out as shattered glass.

  9. wait- how do You get up to 100% dmg increase with his passive if its 20% for every pyro and lyney himself doesn't count?? 20%+20%+20% is not 100% it's 60%. Unless it's not additive. Am I doing the wrong math function? I wish the wording was a little more clear. I am so dumb, I am so sorry.

  10. The fact that Umi from a dead game called Tower of Fantasy feels more like a performer/magician than this character shows how little hoyo cares abt details
