A bunch of female characters were suddenly announced. Now we can expect: Kamisato Ayaka (formerly Ayaka) Yoimiya Sayu Yae Miko Sangonomiya Kokomi Kujou Sara Baal Turns out, I missed out on 300 Primogems because of these announcements. Too bad. Vish, so, are you still looking forward to Yoimiya, or has someone else caught your eye?

Vish, so, are you still planning to get Yoimiya, or has someone else caught your eye?

I'm definitely getting Yoimiya, maybe even with a bow (although if one of my rusty or other bows looks good on her, I'll go for it). I have about 20 more pulls until I reach the 100% guarantee. To be fair, Ayaka also looks pretty good, but I never really shared the general hype around her.

Out of the new characters, I like Yae Miko the most so far. But for now, little is known about them besides their appearance, so I won't judge who I'll be pulling for. There's also a rerun of Hu Tao on the horizon... I hope they give us a good amount of Primogems with the update).

Understood.

But for now, I'm more drawn to Sangonomiya Kokomi.

Why? Because why not.

I enjoyed the Gameplay in the test run, then realized that it would fit well into my decks, and I already have a decent weapon for it, leveled up to 90.
And I also heard this song (warning: contains profanity):

I really like this beach-themed skin!

The third picture shows Lumine asking, as a reward, not to post flyers about her brother, but to accept her into the Liyue Qixing (or at least as an assistant secretary to Ganyu).

Vish, listen. I also liked Ayaka in the test run. I'm thinking about whether to play her or not. What are your overall impressions of her? Are they good?

I liked this update, overall. The location is nice. Now I just need to decide if I should try for Shogun or try my luck with Ganyu again... But I only have a 50% pity rate, so it would be funny if I fail to get her again.

Vish, listen.

I don't regret pulling for her. It's enjoyable to run around the map with her and swim across water (if only she didn't get stuck on stairs, lol). I like her outfit and animations.
Her ultimate deals insane damage, even with not-so-great stats. I'm currently running a team of: Goat, Ayaka, Xiangling, and Bennett, and they're doing a good job. She doesn't synergize very well with Goat, so maybe it would be better to put Rosaria in that slot, but I had to strip Rosaria of her artifacts to equip Ayaka.
Overall, she's a pretty versatile character; you can build her as a main damage dealer, or you can just use her ultimate and run around, like I'm doing now. I initially wanted to put "The Viridescent Venerer" artifact set on her, but it turned out not to be the best weapon. Even "The Dragon's Bane" looks more interesting. I'm using it for now, but I want to build "The Skyward Pride" - finally, I'll have a use for it.

I liked this update, by the way; the location is nice. I just need to decide if I should try for the Shogun or try my luck with Ganyu again... But I'm at 50% pity again, it would be funny if I fail to get her a second time.

I'm also thinking about the Shogun - she could give new life to my Beidou, and she promises to be a strong character in general. But I'm not sure yet - if I win the 50/50 with Yoimiya, I'll probably skip and save for Yae Miko / or a hypothetical rerun of Hu Tao. But if I lose, I'll probably roll for the Shogun.
Do you want another Archon? Do you want to pull for Baal? Your stubbornness is honestly getting on my nerves... sorry.

But, by the way, it's worth noting that if you're not playing with a freeze team, not with Venti/Kazuha, and not against large enemies, Ayaka's ultimate becomes not very convenient - there's a chance you'll waste it by only hitting a couple of enemies. In this regard, she's similar to Diluc's ultimate, only a little bit the opposite - his works better against small enemies, while Ayaka's works better against large ones.

It's enjoyable to run around the map with her and swim across water.

I have Mona. The most convenient thing is to swim diagonally from the teleport to the geo cube.

Thanks for describing your impressions.

I'm thinking - I already have two cryo-level 5 heroes. I'll probably level them up to 70 anyway. If she drops, then it means she wants to. If not, then there are still electro- and hydro-girls on the way.

I spun 40 times (up to 70) - she didn't drop.

Well, that's that.

But I'm still very happy, because I got Ironhide and Yan Fei, which I didn't have at all.

I have Mona too. The most convenient thing is to swim diagonally from the teleport to the Geo cube.

Yes, I have her too. And that's one of the reasons why I didn't want to roll for Ayaka at first.
For some reason, I thought that only Ayaka could swim infinitely, spamming left and right without spending stamina. But now I tried it - Mona can do it too, it turns out. So, the only difference between Ayaka is that she can walk on the "bridge," alternating between sprint, normal attacks, and sometimes holding. It's convenient in its own way, but it takes a long time.

Yoimiya's banner is cool, of course. I want C6 Diona (currently C3), but I predict that I'll get one Sayu and about five Pig (which I already have C5 and don't need). It was similar in the previous banner - one Rosaria and C12 (approximately) Bennett.
