  1. As someone without nahida and doesnt ever plan on pulling her (she is really strong but i just dont like her design), I believe alhaithem will be the next strongest dendro in the game. People focusing way too much on his raw damage in the leaks, when dendro all about reactions and em, and he applies alot of dendro hits in a short time and scales from em. He reminds me of ayato actually, can be played in literally any team comp as a driver maybe not the strongest but very versatile. Or maybe I'm coping LOL

  2. Kinda irony that despite the big nerf Alhaitham got, he's still better than Cyno, who iirc in the beta, got buffs after buffs. I can't imagine how bad Cyno was in beta.

  3. Still pulling for him since I really like his character and I only have Traveler and Collei for Dendro.

    If only for the memes, I hope Kaveh will come with the most unexpected passive that will somehow only make Alhaitham OP and be meh on anyone else. That'd be hilarious to me.

  4. I am so looking forward to Al Haitham, Nilou, Barbara, Yaoyao bloom team. Al Haithem doesn't even need to do huge amounts of personal damage but just needs to be constantly applying dendro. Niou's blooms will be doing the bulk of the work while hurting Al Haitham xD

  5. Man I really don't want to play quickbloom on Al Haitham. I've already been doing that with Cyno and while it's fun, I don't want to carry it over to another character as it'll get boring at that point. I want to play Al Haitham as a spread DPS. Once I get Al Haitham, I'm pretty much done with pulling for hypercarries. I'll focus on getting more supports.

  6. I follow much of his information in beta and can't avoid being disappointed. He is mid; more or less than cyno; more damage than on-field nahida but doesn't have off-field ability; can be played in many teams but non of them will be meta except for quickbloom (cyno's best team). He is hard to build, needs crit (his ascension is dendro damage, so we need to both crit dame and crit rate), EM to optimize his passive, and ER (he has energy problem and needs his burst at the beginning of every rotation). Plus, his playstyle is nothing special. He feels like a rushed character after dedicated characters like nahida and wanderer

  7. I'm playing him with Nilou XD I don't care if he's not as good as Nahida on that team since I don't have or want her. I can 36* with Nilou, Collei, DMC, and Barbara so I'm sure I can do it with Nilou, Haitham, Xingqiu, and Barbara.

    I can also try a Fischl, Kazuha, Haitham, and Kuki team if I want. I have C2 Kazuha so he gives 200 EM. Kuki could use Instructors or TotM too.

  8. You are one of the few content creators that also clarify on more investment level. As a 1st week + low/mid spender player. F2P view of team strength can not apply to my account at all.
    I really enjoy that. Keep up your good work.

  9. Imo, these 2 are best spread team for him:
    1. Zhongli Raiden Nahida Alhaitham (I think Zajeff and other TC has thought about this team at least)
    2. Beido Fischl/Kuki Nahida Alhaitham (Dendro reso + Nahida give 350 EM, Electro reso reduce Alhaitham ER need, also 3 AoE dps should outdamage his Quickbloom against MultiTarget).

    For Quickbloom, it's kinda weird since it's puzzling who will buff his EM. The best I could come up for this scenario is QuickFridge: Alhaitham Yelan DionaC6 Electro(who has AoE consistent electro apply, who is still Idk). Or else just short investment on him would be better for standar quickbloom/hyperbloom.

  10. In CN community, when the new cha has some bad designs, apart from the complaints of the "cha havers/wanters", but some extreme anti-fans might make up conspiracy theories (like male discrimination to AL) or use insulting words (like "the abandoned trash from dev") to make videos/articles to aggravate the drama and deeply hurt the players. After that, those drama makers and anti-fans are vanished with no signal, but the real victims are always the cha lovers.
    I do felt a bit disappointed on balancing nerfs from HYV, but felt really annoyed to these drama makers who always focus on new cha's defects apart from his/her merits to create endless negative comments. I just hope the negative drama and assessment about him could be reversed after AL's official release, since his personal PV, voicelines and quest haven't been updated rn😢

  11. Hi I love your videos. I will be getting Alhaitham for my male only account and was curious what kind of male only composition would be your recommendation. I have been thinking about a burgeon team with Thoma, Xingqiu, Al Haitham, Flex. What do you think?

  13. True he is not one shot character like hutao and eula and Raiden shogun
    I found hoyoverse stopped making that method on new character
    Hoyoverse hate the one shot
    That's why they started making all the new characters doing long time damage
    Forget about 1 sec instant damage from now
    If you want it go and get an old character
    But stop hating new characters because they can't do 1 million damage in 1 sec
    Hoyoverse stopped making that
    It can do 1 million damage but in like 10 to 20 secs

  14. So in conclusion he is around the same value as ayato… Good thing I only want him for his look and personality, I never had high hopes damage wise to begin with, I have some privileged meta units who can carry me to 36* abyss already.
