  2. I pulled him on accident. Wanted Sara cons so I pulled 3 multis and hit early pity.

    Ended up pulling all my savings and got both weapons since everthing on that banner was amaxing for my account now.

    I feel like I would've regretted skipping him. This was probably the most fun I've had in this game since I pulled Kazoo on his 4.X rerun."

    Yet, somehow the best part about Kinich is that I actually get to play Dehya too. They work together so well.

  3. You make a lot of good points here. Comparing him to Alhaitham doesn't make sense because they work in different teams and do different things, and they're both great in their own ways. That said, I do think you might be looking at the wrong things in your Eula comparison. She's not just the worst 5 star DPS in the game, she's the worst limited 5 star in the game. Yeah he looks absurd in comparison to her, but most characters do. Even outdated ones like Ganyu and C0 Raiden look crazy strong compared to Eula. I feel like a better comparison would be someone in Kinich's league like Alhaitham, Navia, Clorinde, maybe Hu Tao, and showing how he's as good or better than characters that are still hovering around the top of the meta. Anyways, love your content, keep up the good work man

  4. I got c1on accident, but even then my kinich only does 250 at max (150 most of the time) , on a furina team with the hunter artifact set. Maybe its because of the abyss buff, otherwise i dont know how you got 500k

  5. If I had a nickel for every time Soul tells how good a Dendro character is, while I pulled a Electro character to work on Dendro reactions a few patches ago, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

  6. xiangling just feels super bad imo cause kinich's spinning and slow backward movement screws with the pyronado hitbox, maybe it effects your deepwood uptime, definitely effects your damage and it's gotten to the point where I got faster kills using thoma

  8. Kinich is good but not impressive really. Eula is oudated and worst limited 5 star dps to exist, compared to her, any other 5 star dps looks better. His real competition should be Mualani cuz he is in the same patch as Mualani, and many people pulled Mualani and skipped Kinich and in the same way, people also skipped Mualani to pull for Kinich. When we compare them both, Mualani destroys him in every scenario, in single target or aoe, C0 or higher constellation, Mualani is dominating every abyss spd run right now with only 4 star supports like Sucrose, Candace, Kachina and Xiangling, while the same is not true for Kinich at all. Mualani is also getting more buffs next patch with Xilonen and I heard her targetting issues are getting fixed as well. And when Mavuika comes out, I am afraid of what kind of monster Mualani might become. Kinich will be waiting a lot more time for buffs cuz Xilonen can't buff him. In the end, pull for who you like, he is a good dps, but people haven't realised how broken Mualani is yet, most people seem to still think she is only single target when she can mark and deal dmg upto 5 targets. I don't think he is top 5 dps, maybe top 8 sure. Top 5 for me is Mualani, Arlecchino, Neuvilette, Navia, and Hu Tao with Kinich, Al Haitham and Clorinde falling in the later/top 8.

  9. I can't wait to finally have Kinich's full team available. Pulled Emilie in preparation for him even tho I wanted to skip her completely. Went for C2R1 on him and cant stop enjoying his playstyle. I'm not a big fan of Dendro in general, but he got me hooked (pun intended) on the burning reaction. Was lucky with artefacts (currently Top1%) so he is already hitting like a truck. I'd say he's stronger than my C6 Xiao, C6 Ganyu and C2 Lyney.

  10. Emilie is definitely better than xiangling in a kinich team, hell Deyha and Thoma are better than Xiangling. With xianglings burst rotating around kinich and kinich rotating around the enemy your pyronado will only hit the target a few times

  11. Blame people misreading calcs. His team dps has always been good, because he actually has teams.

    He was just unfortunate to be in a beta cycle with Mualani, who has more power than God.

  12. I'm kinda in between pulling Xilonen or pulling Kinich. On the one hand he looks fun and I could use a Natlan DPS, but on the other hand I'm pretty sure Xilonen is going to be a part of many, many, maaaaaany Natlan teams at some point given the universality of her kit (providing res shred + triggering Hero + adding extra Nightsoul Burst procs)

  13. no need to get him when neuvi and arle exist, and dont try to bring up the play who you like line, this game is about resource management and maximizing everything.
    but in the end this is my opinion and play how you like
