jstern Ranks Every HSR Character. Yes Really

0:00 I am not a hardcore Hongkey star rail player, but I play enough. I think I have some unique takes. Why not? ZZZ player tears Hong Kai Star Rail. Very similar to the ZZZ1. It's not just going to be how characters perform at E0 S1. It's going to be a bit of, hey, this character is really good at idolons. Hey, this character is really bad without idolons. Hey, this character has a freeto-play cone. You get the idea. So, let's start. Should we actually should we explain the mechanics? I guess we should explain the mechanics. Okay, so every team in Hawkeye Star Rail is three harmonies and a DPS. And by harmonies, I mean supports. They don't

0:46 have to specifically be harmony. Much like ZZ, every team is two supports and a DPS. The best sustain characters are the ones that have support utility. And reminder, damage is a support utility and that will come up and it will be important. What makes characters good in this game? Having really high numbers. Doing lots of things is not good enough compared to doing one thing really well. In fact, most characters only do one thing really well. People ask me all the time, "How do you top up in all of these games?" I have an answer for you. This is Aneba. Anieba is a safe 100% holy compliant top-up service for basically any gacha game you

1:31 want. Aneba has all kinds of games, not just Gotacha, but Gacha especially. It's Endless Zone Zero, Genchin Impact, Hankai Star Rail. Here, let me show you how it works. Go to into a game. We're going to pick out what we want to top up. We're going to make sure server and the user ID match correctly. And that's it. If you happen to live in Indonesia or have family there, prices can be a lot cheaper, too. And get 10% cash back on top of discounted prices. Really, there's no reason not to use Ana if you play these games. Be smart. Use AnEa. Now, we're doing DPS's. We're starting with DPS's. Take two. Reset. Let's talk

2:17 about game mechanics. Okay, this is Ocaron. She is the DPS for her own archetype that has no support. Aaron entirely lives on an island by herself and does not do anything with that island. I I don't know what else to tell you. This character has been given out for free. She badly needs an overflare. She badly needs her own supports. She badly needs an aility who is a healer. Release the Ocaron files. I mean, I I guess it's all right if you have E2 Silverwolf and maybe E2 Cipher. Sure. She just doesn't really do anything anymore. It's not that they haven't released nilities. They just haven't released the right ones essentially. It's kind of Yeah,

3:03 she's kind of Ula. Yeah. So, let's actually explain Ocaron. She does not use energy for her alt. Energy is what funds ultimates for most characters in this game. You get energy from being hit and using your attacks. That is not true for Aaron. Arcaron instead generates her ultimate by having debuffs be applied to enemies one per turn. One time per turn up to nine. And she can hold three extra. Is it nine or eight? I think it's nine. Yes. Aaron's best team right now is riding along with Kofka and heins. Yes, riding along with Kofka and

3:50 heelins. It's time to time to put the ocaron in the bag. Put Aaron on the bench. I'm sorry. I know you all love Ryden. Did you know this character is Ryden, by the way? Yes, that one. Ryden Shogunitoachi. Cringe. The funny thing about this character is her name is a Spider-Verse reference. She's Ryden B. May like Peter B. Parker from Across the Spider-Verse. That's the whole joke. That's the reference. Baste. I should correct myself. Once per action is not the same as once per turn. It is once per action. It stands for Bozamorei. Yes, I know. But the reason it's B is is right in beay. That's the reference. uh as opposed to Ryden A or Ryden May. This is

4:37 a Naxa. Anaxa is actually really good. I'm not going to put Anaxa in the top tier. I know, I know, I know people love their anaxa zero cycles. They will tell me all day an AA so good. Look at this low cost zero cycle with E2 Sirene. Great. Thanks. That's not applicable to most players, but it's fine. He's still really good. I do think Anaxa is the best aerudition character. What is arudition? Eridition is a path for characters. Essentially, it's the way that they do their damage. Eridition is the AOE specialized path. The notsy E2. Am I thinking of the wrong character? Yeah, whatever. For leus. Okay. Okay. Okay. My you I Okay. You can do zero cycle bat.

5:25 Doesn't matter. It's not the be all end all for what makes a character good in this game. Anyway, I was splitting airition. Airition is the AoE path. What does AoE mean? It means that you only do damage when there are five enemies on the screen. Otherwise, you do no damage, except an X bucks this trend by always doing the same amount of damage. He's actually worse the more enemies there are. And that's what makes him so good. They solved air addition by making an air addition character actually do their damage at all times because that's the fundamental problem with five target AoE and relying on five target AoE. You simply do not do damage when there are not five targets and exa problem solved. Let's go. He's built diff spoiler. Every

6:12 air addition character will be very low on this list. Air edition is unironically a bad path. I mean it. I'll say it. I'm not afraid to say it. I'm an aerudition hater. Dedicated hater. Why do they not do damage? Speaking of not do damage. This is Argenti. He's another aerudition character. This guy's debatably the worst character in the game. Not even a lie. The best thing you can do with him is put him on a threestar light cone and make him support the Hera, who is also not a great DPS. That's actually the best thing you could possibly do with him. He's such a brick. Uh he's got a unique mechanic where he has two ultimates. If you double charge his energy, you get a small alt and a big alt. It's not a good mechanic. It's they've done this

6:59 mechanic so much better with other characters. He's pretty. Arganti is unironically debatably the worst defense in the game. I would argue he is. Who else would anyone contend with him? Not really. Rapid zero cost eight cycles. Nice rapus. Nice. Pastel. Nice. Yeah, he's going to standard. Allegedly, he's going to standard. Uh, Ugalia is my remembrance character of choice. That is a hot take. It's a very hot take, but what can I say? Uh, chat gaslit me into pulling Sunday and convincing me that Sunday would be good in the next year. Must support every remembrance character. You got to pull Sunday. Sunday. T0e

7:47 better than E6. Sparkle at E0. None of this was true. It was all a lie. It was all bait and I fell for it. Hook, line, and sinker. But anyway, uh I pulled Augalia because she was good with Sundae. The Sundae that I pulled because of you people. Uh she's like a ramp up DPS. Her first cycle damage is low. Thankfully, it's not a long ramp up. Oh, we should probably explain remembrance. Uh, remembrance means that the character has a summon. Ugalia's summon is named the garment maker. It's a mannequin that she dances with to do damage. She's like a seamstress, but she's blind. That's the twist. That's the hook. What do I have to say about Ugalia? Uh, also I

8:33 need the uh What do I have to say about Uglyia? Otherwise, her damage is still fine. It's like I mean it's all right. Ugly is not necessarily bad right now, but she's maybe not the most impressive character. Uh for reference, I have a bit of support idolons. I can still zero cycle topside of Mach. So that's nice. I think we're going to go investigated fraud though. I think we're going to go investigated fraud for Ugalia. I think she's safe there for now. As much as I would like to put her up with an axa, I don't think I will. I would like to, but I don't think I will. He is an E1 merchant. Good thing I got two in one temple. No, he wouldn't. Uh, Archer.

9:19 Wait, no, it's Ashevail. Oh, Ashvale. Asheville's actually really good. He's been nerfed. He's been nerfed a couple times. He got nerfed really hard. He's still pretty good as a DPS. I think he's assumed to be fraud. Maybe there's an argument for investigated, but I I don't think so. I I think he's still pretty good. I think the nerfs uh he's he's still quite good. We're going to there actually going to put him above an accident. I feel confident about that. Archer Archer used to be the top one DPS in the game and he was free. Yeah, that's right. The free characters that they give out in Hong Kai Star Rail, one are all men. Two are all at the time the best DPS in the game. I'd love to put

10:06 him at not Yet Fraud. He did get buffed. Ow. >> I'd love to put him on not yet fraud. He did get buffed by sparkle nova flare. The gimmick for archer is he is a hunt character. Hunt just means you do single target damage, which means good things. It means you just do a lot of damage and you always do a lot of damage. He's been buffed. Oh, let me explain the gimmick. Uh, you do single target damage, you always do a lot of damage. His core gimmick is that he consumes two skill points per attack and he can attack up to five times in a row per turn. He got buffed by sparkle being buffed and sparkle being free. So now you have a free team. You have free DPS, free

10:53 support, free sustain. You just need one other support. If you are Mr. Costbat 5,000 because Archer is free, his Litecon was free. His best support is free. You can cram so many idolons into this man. You can cost scam all day. I think just because he's so free, I'm going to keep him on t the top tier. Oh yeah, and Robin is free next update. That's right. Robin is going to be free soon. Lycon was free if you pulled. That being said, if you are logging into Star Rail and did not get the free archer, you should not pull archer. It's a bad idea.

11:39 It's a bad idea. You should not pull archer. But yeah, I'm going to keep him up here. You know what? Yeah, I I feel good about this. The sparkled Nova flare was really good. And it's just a free team. It's just a free team. Nothing wrong with it. You would never not Okay, currently you would never not recommend playing free archer unless you pull elation because when you pull the elation team, you can no longer build an archer team because the key support is spoken for and that makes archer entirely unplayable. Just entirely unplayable. Uh is Arlin even a DPS? Do we need to rank the literal who four stars? This is Arlin. He's the only

12:24 dark-skinned character in the game. He's also the worst fourstar in the game. Pioverse are not meeting the racist allegations with this character. Uh his abilities are all slavery themed. Uh very problematic character. I don't know why, but they did this to themselves. So yeah, that's Arlin. Okay, Dot is kind of weird. Yeah, this is Black Swan. Uh, DOT is its own archetype. Black Swan just got buffed. Now, the thing about DOT is that the team is one collective unit. You can try to argue who the DPS is. I'm going to advocate for the face of the team being the DPS and the other two being supports. But objectively, Hoffka

13:09 is the support and Black Swan Heelins are the DPS's. But we're going to look at it the other way just because I think it makes a little bit more sense logistically for a tier list where it's the Kofka team. It's not the Black Swan team. It's the Kofka team. Wake up, Shevil. So yes, we're going to rank Kofka and the DPS one and we're going to put Black Swan and Tyillins on this. Be mad in the comments. This is Fortnite lady. This is Kofka. Look at her do the funny dances. Uh, she's definitely assumed to be fraud. Happens to be quite good. She's probably going to get another buff with the next round of Nova Flares as well. You think she should be not yet fraud? Kofka was given out for free this update as well. So, you had to

13:55 choose between free sparkle or free Kofka. I think free sparkle is just a better deal. That's really good. Dot's in the best place it's ever been. Yes, Kofka from Fortnite is in the best place she's ever been. This is as good as DOT will probably ever be with post Nova Flare Kafka, post Nova Flare, Black Swan, Icelins, and they're probably going to get another buff from a Nova flared support/sustain. Whether that be uh Novaflair Jau or Novaflair Hawhal, it's technically going to be a buff for Doth. Also, where is the Nahil healer? Nahila healer could also be a dot team buff. I do think

14:40 Kofka from Fortnite is as good as Archer. I'll say it. I do think the Kofka from Fortnite team is as good as Archer. So the downside is that she just isn't free. Are people going to be upset if I have Kofka from Fortnite above Anaxa and Asheville? Would people be upset? You have to pull a lot. It's a very expensive team. It's not a literal free team like Archer. We're going to put Kofka for Fortnite is not a fraud yet. I do think this is her height. This is the height of her powers. Next patch, she might be assumed to be fraud for now. I think she's chilling with it. I do think she's chilling with it. She's getting jiggy. Look at her do the Look at her hit the gritty. Look at her do funny Fortnite dances. Uh, speaking of Fortnite, this is the other Fortnite

15:25 main character, Blade. You should never play Blade. Oh my god, this guy got buffed and he's still terrible. They buffed this guy. He's been Nova flared. Oh my. Uh, Blade is a destruction character, which means he has HP and damage mechanics. Except that isn't true for all destruction characters. The theming is not consistent. But TLDDR, Blade is an HP scaling character. He is better than Aaron. Yes, he's maybe better than Jinglu. I don't think so, but he's maybe better than Jinglu. His gimmick is that he builds up a counter the more times he gets hit or takes damage and then unleashes a big follow-up attack that

16:12 does AoE damage. He also does not consume skill points, which isn't really useful anymore. Back in the day, it used to be really cool latia. He's never been good, but people have always liked him enough to cope. Even today, people still like him enough to cope. He's literally he's wind. He's kind of short. pretty edgy. It's just bad. It's just I'm sorry. He's just bad. Jingen. Jingen also better than Aaron, by the way. Demand Blade one tier up. We'll see. Okay, you know, here's a Okay, let's discuss this. Is Blade better than Bootill? Let's have this discussion. Is Blade better than Bootill? Is Bootill a

16:57 proven fraud? Bootill is the singlet target break DPS. What is break? Uh, break is kind of like stun from Zenless, except they never actually fleshed out the mechanic and then replaced it with a new mechanic called super break, which is just you do a lot of damage that can't crit essentially. Uh, some hits do more damage than others depending on what position the break bar is at, but it doesn't matter anymore because of Dalia's super super break. So therefore, he just does non-rit damage like dot. So is Bootill a proven fraud or a fraud? I want to say proven fraud. I don't think

17:43 Bootill is good enough to be fraud. That is my personal opinion though. Uh, Bootill is a character that I did not pull. He can clear content, but he is just worse than Firefly. Like, let let's not get this twisted. He is just worse than Firefly. He's better than a proven fraud. There's no one else in the proven fraud tier. How would you even know that? How would you even know what a proven fraud looks like? It's not that bad. Okay, you know what? We'll go fraud. Don't go fraud. I'll give it to you. We can move up. Blade, too. Fine. Fine. Fine. Okay. Uh, Claraara. Claraara is a standard banner character. Is Claraara better than Ocaron? No. But it is funny to cope. Uh Claraara is another destruction character. Her gimmick is that she does counters. There

18:28 is a limited version of Claraara with a different name who we'll talk about later. So moving on is better than Aaron. Okay. Okay. Um this is Donghang Imbber or Delf. He's a destruction character with an SP gimmick. You know, this character was the original. Must pull E2. He's so good at E2. Everyone pull E2. He's not good even with his E2. He's not good even with his E2. I'm sorry. Uh he belongs in the bottom. This character will probably get a Nova flare. Most likely he'll get one. They did release another Donghang. Uh,

19:15 Dongghang perasaur terai dino hang. I assume if he gets a nova flare, he'll get the currency wars kit where he can consume as many skill points as you want instead of having a limit. That would be nice. And just doing more damage. That would be nice. This guy needs a haircut. Okay, this is Castirus. That's not This is Caster. Castas is objectively very good. I do not enjoy Casteris. Casteris is a character that I personally do not enjoy. She's so boring. The animations are so long. They're so boring. She does them so many times. You don't know the definition of

20:00 madness until you see the vomit dragon seven times in a cycle for multiple cycles in a row. Oh my god. Castus. Objectively, Castreas is arguably one of the best DPS's in the game. Maybe arguably the best. Animations are so long. She's mindnumbingly boring. Sparksy is funny. Asteris is just lame. It takes 18 seconds per dragon attack on fast forward. Is it eight or 18? Wait, now I don't remember. Either eight or 18. It's very long. I think it's eight. It's definitely not 18. It's eight. Uh, it takes 18. Takes 8 seconds per dragon

20:47 attack on fast forward. Does not respect your time. And she's not even funny. She never is. Everyone thought Caster is Oh my god. This is your wife. This is your waifu. Why does she look like that? What's her face? Why does she look like that? Thought this character was supposed to be cool. Yo, I was originally going to pull E2 Caster, but then I played her and I decided to bail. I got so sick of seeing the Hobbit Dragon. This was the patch she released in, by the way, that I got sick of. Does it so many times it's so boring. Also, five target AoE. Gross. She's actually not that five target AoE heavy. Uh, she has bounce damage on the dragon explosion. single target damage

21:32 essentially. So, it's not that big of a deal, but whatever. Is a 10. Yeah, it's very long. It's literally who doesn't matter. Uh, this is Dr. Ratio. You know, Dr. Ratio was the top one DPS in the game when he released and he was given out for free. People did not respect Dr. Ratio. He never got the glaze he deserved, so I'm giving it to him now. He was not a fraud. He used to be top one DPS and no one acknowledged him because he is male and they all wanted to play Zela instead. That being said, Dr. Ratio is not good right now. He is long since power creeped. He actually got power crept within the year he

22:18 released by a strictly better character who made the entire team deal more damage. But for what it's worth, I want to give him the glaze he never got. This guy used to be king and no one acknowledged him. He was so good. Oh well, moving on. Got memes. He does have good memes. Where's the dancing bathtub? Yeah, a Yeah, he got directly power. Like, we joke about power creep. This is like Alice to Jane. They replaced him with a strictly better character in the exact same role in the exact same team. Uh, this is Evanite or Evernight. March VIT, your goth girlfriend. She's really good. Uh, she is the Idolon merchant. The one, the only, the current

23:05 Idolon merchant. Everyone will tell you, Evernight E2, 900% DPS increase. E2. Evernight must fall. Do not fall for the bait. By the time she's rerun, and she just reran, it will be not very good within a couple months. Do not worry if you did not pull ever knight E2. I didn't. I didn't pull her light code and she sucks without her light code. She doesn't actually, but she's not exactly that great without her light cone. Uh, she is better than Castas. She's definitely better than Caster. The animations are also shorter. Five target AoE. It's not that offensive. She's quite good anyway. I think she's a soon to be. You can definitely argue that she's better than Archer and Dot. You

23:51 definitely make the argument especially because yes, if you are Mr. Matua, Mr. Kas Matua, uh you are pulling Evernight. You did pull Evernight. I'm going to insert the rant from our last ZZZ tier list by telling a story. I was expressing to chat, hey, my Castus does not feel very fun. Doesn't feel great. I don't really care for it. Uh, for reference, my Castaster team is Casteris E1 S1, Evernight E0, Sirene E0, Hyasin E0 S1, and I expressed, "Hey, I'm not really happy with my Castas team. It's not performing as well as I would like it to." And Chat comes in and says,

24:36 "Well, your problem is that you're playing Castirus. You were supposed to pull E2S1 Evernight instead of Castirus and you'd be doing much better. How do I unpull Castis? She released first. It doesn't work that way. You can't say you should have pulled Idolons on the Castus support because she's better than Caster. Like Hor doesn't she released first. She released much earlier. It wasn't even just one or two updates. It was a full six months. It was over 6 months. Actually, I I I was flabbergasted that this would even be a suggestion. Yes, they are correct. You should not pull

25:22 Castis. You should instead pull new characters. But if you had already pulled Castis on our first banner, it doesn't work that way. You can't just do that. WE DON'T PLAY IN A PRIVATE SERVER. HUH? That's why Evernight bed is funny. That's the story all about how my life got flipped turned upside down. Anyway, Evernight is actually still quite good, but you can't unpull Castis to invest more into Evernight. So, what it's kind of irrelevant. She's also an Evernight support. Not Evernight. She's also a Caster support. She's part of the mono remembrance team. Oh, yeah. She's Remembrance by the way. Not like it really matters. You know what? I'm going to be spiteful. Soon to be fraud. Freak the idolon batting crowd. Get wa I don't

26:09 pull every character in this game. I'm not playing for Asheville. I was never going to pull for Asheville. Uh Fao. This used to be my favorite character to play in Hai Star. When Fa does a lot of damage. She feels so fun. She's so fun. The problem is you have to do it's so hard to get that damage now. It's so hard now. It It's borderline not worth it. fraud above Bhut. Oh, hi. Yeah, this is the character who is strictly better, Dr. Ratio, by the way. This is FA. Her gimmick is she's a hunt followup attack DPS, just follow-up attacks. She gets alt charges from teammate attacks, and it's a half charge per attack at E0 and a full charge per follow-up at E2. Fish

26:58 100% was the best DPS period for the entire year that she released. Aaron always a fraud. Fish like literally did double her damage. I think it was more than double her damage. Fish was really really good when she released. Unfortunately, we're not there anymore. It was like 3x. Yeah, it was like Yeah. Uh I don't think it was 3x but yeah, very good. Uh Fasia very very very good. Uh she's not that great anymore. She's they keep trying to give her supports in the form of Cipher and Ashvale. These characters are not really successful. Yeah, these characters are not really successful. It's a bit unfortunate that Fa is kind

27:45 of just dying. She's basically dying. She's dripped out. She's got RZ. This girl's got Riz. Have you seen her? Have you seen her beat up the punching bag on that light cone? Oh, meet me when you fish out. Super attractive character. Uh, super great character. Uh, what else do I have to say? She fell off. She fell off. I'm sorry. I wish he was still great. She's just kind of not. Firefly. Firefly is getting Nova flared very soon. Firefly does not need a Nova flare. I do not think. You know what? I'll move up. Uh, Firefly does not need a Nova flare. The problem with Firefly is her team so expensive and none of them have been given out for free besides Ruan May. You have to pull quite a lot for Firefly. You have to pull Fug.

28:31 You have to pull Dalia. And these are characters that are straight up useless without Firefly more or less. Uh Lingua is not necessary. You can use Gallagher. You can play sustainless. I happen to really like Lingua. I happen to really like Lingo. Lingcha. Top five hottest characters in the game. Top five hottest characters in the game. Firefly will be replaced by Heimo Elation. I don't know about that. I don't know about that baseline. Um Oh yeah, I should mention will not be Elian. Are we sure about that? Uh anyway, um Firefly. Firefly. They're going to release propagation Firefly next year. So don't pull Firefly on rerun. True. Uh also they might power creep Firefly just because of that.

29:16 clearly want to release propagation Firefly with her aangelion plug suit. Uh, what else do I have to say about Firefly? It's also maybe why they're rushing the Nova Flare. That's probably why they're rushing the Novaf flare out. Where were we? Where were we? Oh, yeah. I was explaining idolons. Firefly at E0. Her team can really struggle with skill points and it's kind of a big issue. Firefly is your girlfriend though. Uh, people pull a lot of idolons for Firefly, including me. I have E2. Yeah, that's right. Come at me, bro. We're up. Maybe not yet. Fraud is optimistic. You know what? Not yet. Fraud is pretty optimistic. We'll see how good the Nova flare is. Maybe because of the Nova Flare, I'll keep her up here. She's straight up unplayable without Dalia. 100%. She's

30:02 unplayable without Dalia. Counter argument. Bast is unplayable without Hyasin. Evernight is unplayable without Sirene and Hyasin. I think I'm pretty sure. I think Hiasin is a better character than Balia. I think I'm going to move Firefly down. It's RMC. You don't need as a healer for Does everyone have a place of sandless? I don't remember one. Yeah, you do need Sirene RMC. No, runs a stainless. Okay, this tier list is rage rate because Aaron is on the bottom tier. Excuse me, what? Have you seen Aaron? But look, I understand people really love their Rydens. She's like a blanket. I get it. This is not cope. This is not rage bait. I'm being rage baited by this comment

30:49 implying that it's rage bait. Yes, I did get one guide. AMA next DPS when uh is he count as a DPS? She's a break DPS. Yeah, he goes a break DPS on E6 and clearer. WHOA. WHOA, THAT'S CRAZY. I wanted to have Blade on the bottom tier. Chad argued with me. I wanted to put Blade on the bottom tier for the record. I wanted Blade to be on the bottom tier. She's actually all right. I'm still going to put her on the bottom tier. She's actually all right. You need to cause that. You need Dolly idolons, you know. Where's the next one? I already addressed Hyasin. This is Hyasin. Hi is better than almost every DPS, almost every older DPS. Isin is

31:36 this game's uh remembrance healer. She consumes skill points, so she's not useful in every team, but she literally does more damage than most of the DPS's in the game, including Aaron. I am comfortable ranking Hyasin as a proven fraud as a DPS. I'm 100% comfortable doing it. Should you play DPS Hiasin? Uh, no. But she will be much higher on the support tier list, but I'm ranking her as a DPS because I can fight me. Hiasin is the benchmark for proven fraud. If you are a better DPS than Hyasin, you can go into the fraud tier. This is the gatekeeper 100%. This is the gatekeeper. I don't know. She's a fourstar. I don't jade not really

32:23 playable as a DPS. Maybe was when she released. Not really anymore. Jing Leo. Yes, I am a Jinglu coper. I do think she is better than Blade. Jingliu has the most nonsensical Nova flare I've ever seen. They changed her scaling from attack scaling to HP scaling, replacing all of her gear, her entire team, and anything you could have possibly done with her. This is the worst way you could ever buff a character in this game. in any game. Why would you brick everyone's gear and pulls? Why would you do that? It's insane. It's an insane thing to do. This is something they should never do. Jinglu needs another

33:08 Nova flare so they can fix this. Uh they turned her into Blade. They made Blade 2 with Jinglu. Uh both of them are highest enslaves. Her new best light code is my days. Why did they do this? I was so excited for the idea of Jinglu getting a buff. Nova flare. She's one of the first ones. And they just made this insane choice. I don't understand why they would uh It's bizarre. It's such a bizarre choice. Uh to the point that I actually hope they undo it. Uh but I am a coper. I do think she's better than Blade. It's debatable, but I'm a coper. Turn it off. They should have just not changed her entire kit. Kofka. Yeah, you had to switch to Eagle and uh before the tutorial mission

33:56 starts. Her kit's the same. She's just better at doing it. And the characters that she's supporting are stronger, so more support gearing is better. Jinglu, they just replaced with a different character, which is just an insane choice. I rank Lingua as a DPS. No, it it was funny. It was funny for a time. It's kind of over. Kind of over. Uh, this is Jin Yen, the simps character of choice. The simps character of choice. I think he's like I think he's uh this is that guy who gets buffed every year and then still isn't good. He is him. He hasn't been buffed this year. He's an audition character, so you know he's terrible. Wait, he is getting buffed this year. Sunday's getting buffed. All

34:41 right, he's here. Sunday's getting a nova flare. He's moved up one slot. I would have said Aaron is better because uh Aaron did get new supports. But uh you know I still might I think I will I will say Aaron is better. He was better than Aaron when Sunday released because they hadn't released Cipher or No Flair Silverwolf. But now that they have I I am comfortable putting Aaron above him again. Yeah. Ging he's very funny. He's the husbando Stan's character of choice. He's the coper's character of choice. He's very lore important. He's also a second half of 1.0 five-star. For the longest time, he was mocked because of his core mechanic, our general or

35:28 lightning lord being a summon that you could not control the speed of. So, it would attack after the clear had ended because you ran out of cycles. He truly had was on the unreachable side for the longest time. That was the joke about Jing that he literally couldn't even do his damage cuz the game would end before he could do it cuz he took so long to clear. They buffed him with Sunday who advances summons with the character. So, Lightning Lord attacks as frequently as Jen now, so that's good. So, he's not unplayable mechanically. Ah, he's no five target AoE more like doesn't

36:14 actually do damage. Stop coping. Um, who else we got? Oh, is it's my day. Oh, it's my day. Yeah, it's my day. Um, this is the other coper's character of choice. Uh, one of the regulars on my Discord really loves my day and will actually square up with people. He is HSR Faucet's favorite. I don't have a very high opinion of Maid. I'm sorry. I don't have a very high opinion of Miday. I understand Sirene is very good for him. I understand that he's actually better than you think. Actually, I know. I don't think he's better than I think he's a fraud. Is this a hot take or a contentious take?

37:00 Maybe. It's maybe a contentious take. They the JSM HSR faucet panel will not appreciate this tier. They will tell you uh actually my day belongs up there at least one tier up and I think they can agree to that. I No, I don't think so. I don't think so. You should be ugly tier. Fine. Fine. I'll put them on the same tier. Fine. Fine. We'll do it. Okay. Who's next? Oh my god. It's Py face. Idon. I actually do have a hot take. Idon is a is soon to be a bricky zero. Power creep has screwed this character over in ways

37:48 you would not believe. His E2 is very good. He's one of those characters with a very, very good E2. If you're fine on his E2, 100% is like top one DPS. I think at Ezon is already a bit of a struggle boss and I don't know how to address it. The gimmick for Phon is he kicks all of your teammates out of the squad and takes all the turns for himself essentially. That's the gimmick. Uh that also means that he is the most personal damage dependent character in the game. He's very dependent on just doing a lot of damage himself and getting a lot of buffs from his supports. Thankfully, besides one, his supports are super

38:35 generic and you're probably going to have them. And if you are having problems surviving, they did give everyone the free Donhang. Donhang very good with Fon. Also make Sunday a better support for Phon. Sunday is already a good support for Phineon. He did get buffed by the sparkle buff. I don't know if I can keep him at the top in good consciousness. I don't know how good of a idea it is. I really don't know how good of an to keep him up there. There's arguments for it, which is he's especially good at E2. I just think he struggles at E0 a lot. Maybe more than he should. Probably more than he should. Lots of people pulled E2. Lots of people did pull E2, much like Firefly. And Firefly is kind of getting a boost from that cuz E2 is much better than

39:20 Fireflyy's E2. It's much better. If I have Castus there, fine should be there. Sure, we'll go with it. Yeah, we'll go with it. Archer level. The thing about Archer is so much of his team is free that he's getting a lot of brownie points just from that. It's not even necessarily that Archer himself is all that at Ezero with Ezero teammates cuz he's not. It's just that the entire team is free. How could you say bad things about Archer? What? What are you, an [ __ ] Do you hate free stuff? Like I don't really It's very hard to dunk on archer because of this. It's crapa. Oh my god. Wait, why are we talking about this character so late? It's crapa. She should have

40:07 been with the C characters, bro. Proven fraud at best. May maybe logs is proven fraud. Five target AE break. Oh my god. What's with all these red lights? What's with all the red flags? What's going on here? Good in Piff. That That's another red flag. What a Okay, when anyone ever tells you a character is good because they are good in PF, that is code for this character is actually bad. Everyone is good at piff. Piff is not a serious endgame mode that people care about. Rap is in the bottom. I'm sorry, crapa. Wait, crapa actually was pretty good. when she released, believe it or not. Now, if you saw the last ZZ tier list,

40:54 I'm going to hit you with a very similar argument. Firefly is your girlfriend. Everyone pulled Firefly. Why on earth would people pull another break DPS who uses the same teammates who Well, these ones were better than Firefly. People who are emotionally invested in Firefly. I I don't really know what to tell you. I really don't know what to tell you. Asking people to pull for a second or a third break DPS is an insane concept, especially if people pulled idolons in Firefly. It's just an insane thing to ask of people. Even if they were better at the time, they aren't now. And that's it's kind of a problem. Um, yeah, it's very similar to the rupture situation,

41:39 except the difference is that Firefly and Bootill were act not Firefly, uh, Rappa and Bootill were actually better than Firefly. It's true that they were. The problem is just that who cares? I pulled Firefly. You You cannot ask me to pull another break DPS in the same year. If I'm pulling a DPS for an archetype, don't ask me to pull another DPS for that same archetype that replaces my current character in the same year. If they replace Sparksy for Elation, I don't give a [ __ ] I'm gonna keep playing Sparksy. This is exactly what I mean. It doesn't matter. Uh, people play what they have. This is the biggest problem with Rappa and Boothill. I do think Bootill has held up a bit better. Uh, Rappa kind of

42:25 grief, but believe it or not, Rapa's not terrible. I know she's on the bottom tier, but believe it or not, she's not irredeemably bad. Bootill did not release before Firefly. Did he? Wait, did he? Wait, what is the release order for this game? Now I'm not sure he did. Whoa. Whoa. That's crazy. Doesn't matter. That's crazy. Damn, that's crazy. Everyone collectively forgot. Okay, I'm sorry, Ba. He did. Presto is correct. Uh, who's next? Sabre. Sabre. What do I have to say about Sabre? E6. Yes, Saber is the only E6 baseline character in the game. Um, the funny thing about Saber is her

43:11 numbers are not good. Just straight up, she's a new character. She released in 2025. She's built like a 2024 character, which is strange. It's very strange that she released the way that she did. Um, she released with Archer at the same time. Archer was free. you had to pull for Saber. >> I if you look at the base stats and trace values for Saber and Archer and Light Cone stats, Saber and Archer both have stats from characters released in 2.x, not 3.x when they released. So, Saber was definitely intended to release earlier or was tuned earlier. Archer was just dumb [ __ ] broken, I guess. I don't

44:00 It's weird. She's just not tuned correctly. Her numbers are just low. Her kit is fine, but her numbers are just they're just low. It's really bizarre that they're so low. It's Yeah, base stats are kind of irrelevant sort of, but your trace values do matter. Like your actual skill values. I wish I understood what was going on with Saber to release the way that she did. Also, five target AoE Lau. Uh, who's next? Oh my god, it's the tryhard's former character of choice. It's Zela. Okay, let let me let's tell you a story all about how I quit Hawkeye Star Rail during 1.0 and came back in 1.4. Zela

44:48 was the struggle bus character incarnate, and everyone would keep telling me it's a skill issue. You didn't hit the exact thresholds to one-shot a mob to clear with Zila. Damn, that's a you problem. And oh my god, it drove me up a wall. I got so frustrated these days. What do I have to say about Zilla? You know what? I do think Saber is better than Blade. Moving Blade down. Moving Jinglu down, too. Anyway, Zilla, she's got a super cool kit where she does extra damage and gets another turn after she kills an enemy. The problem is she has to kill an enemy. She's also the 1.0 first half

45:33 limited character, so she was very popular. She's also a Hong Kai impact third character. This is a honker honk. Now, it is it's so hard to kill an enemy in this game with Zila. You have to cram so many support idolons down her throat and even then she still might not. I do not know what else to say. Zilla is currently not good. Zilla used to be arguably very good for like all of year 1. You can argue she was the best 1.x DPS and she was the first one they released, which is cool. It can be such a struggle though. him. Oh my god, it was so

46:20 frustrating at the time. It was so frustrating. You would not believe You would believe it. This is exactly what the experience of playing Zila is like now. She's going to get a Nova flare. She'll get buffed. Uh you can lose 50/50s to Zila. Her idolons are not good. It does not matter. She had her own team archetype called Monoquantum or Monoquaso, which was Fushuan, Silverwolf, Sparkle, and Zilla. Uh, mind you, Sparkle did not release until 2.0. So, uh, it was actually Fooan, Silverwolf, and Brana, and Lynx was better than Fushuan. True. No, I never got baited for Fooan. Fooan is not a character I pulled. I used Lynx. Lynx, my goat.

47:06 Anyway, I think Zilla is worse than Gin. I think he's worse than Dr. Ratio too right now. It was Monocope, but the whole thing Silverwolf guaranteed quantum implant. It was going to be so cool. Silverwolf fundamentally broken. Monoquantum fundamentally broken. Play on any enemy. Implant weakness. Win. Trust. Silver Wolf is the Kazuma of Hankai Star Rail. She's definitely not the Venti. Trust. We'll talk about Silverwolf later. We'll talk. Oh my god. Anyway, Silverwolf Lau. Um, wel, who cares? Um, wait, we're up to Sparksy. Wow. Uh, brand new character. Sparksy. Sparksy is technically not a DPS. She's

47:52 technically a support or technically will be a support. I don't know. Top tier. Sugar on top. Pop. Pop. Party. Don't stop. Uh, she's an elation character. She's brand new team. Elation, brand new path. Uh, the gimmick is that they summon AHA to do elation instant skills, which has a speed stat derived from the speed of your characters. Currently, the only way to make AHA attack twice per cycle is to have Sparky at over 134 speed and Yao Guang at over 200 speed or 200 speed on the dot. Uh, that's very difficult to do. It's technically possible. It's very difficult to do. Uh it will get easier

48:39 when they release a third elation character because then two AHA attacks per turn will be almost guaranteed and you're unlikely to get three. Boxy also has animations that make me smile because they're so funny. Gets railed. Explodes. My sparsy impression. I'm not doing this. It's funny. It makes me laugh. Uh she's either going to get replaced or she's going to be a support for a DPS. She's not really a DPS. It's fine. We can pretend she is one and whatever. Elation's brand new. It's going to be good for quite a while. Sparky at Sparksy at top. It's fine. Yeah, she's probably not going to stay there. It's fine. Uh, who's left? Oh, the Hera fraud. Fight me. Hera is not like other audition characters. One, she

49:24 requires a second audition character. Two, she doesn't do audition five target AoE. She does do five target AoE, but it's five target AoE blast, which is a unique mechanic. Uh, her best support is a Naxa, who's better without Hera. She's great in Pure Fiction. True. She's great in Pure Fiction. What else do I have to say about Hera? She released in 3.0. Uh, if you kept pulling her party members, she was surviving by the end of 3.x. If you want to fight, challenge me on this one. Type out the argument. I'd like to hear it. She got out E2 merchanted. Everyone's an E2 merchant. Fell for it again. A word. If you keep pulling, you can't. Okay, here's the thing about the E2 merchant philosophy. There's a new E2

50:12 merchant every 3 months. The Hera Asteris Bon Sirene, we're all three months apart. If you're pulling in E2 every 3 months, that's insane. That's so many pulls. That's a character every month. Literally, because in E2 is three. You've got to pull the light cone, too. And then you can include Evernight. And it's even more often. But you got to pick one. You got to pick one and stick with it. You can't pull them all. I'm sorry. You can't pull them all. Half. It's actually more than half. Pastel. You're wrong. It's more than half. It's four pulls versus an extra three. Well, no. Four pulls versus eight pulls. No, you're right. It's half. No, you're right. I'm wrong. Yes, you could argue

50:57 for the hera to be similar to Agalia. You absolutely can. You can. You definitely can. I'm actually going to put her above Fishio. I think we're going to go with that though. That's what I'm comfortable with. We'll see. We'll see how I feel. I reserve the right to move the Hera up one tier. Okay, here here's the question. Is my day better than the Hera? Discuss. Discuss. Chat. Is my day better than the Hera? Chat says yes. He has bigger packs. Does he though? Paid doesn't have nipples. He really is Gilgamesh. He doesn't even have nipples. Denless gives chartless characters nibbles. What's star rails excuse? Why is my phone ringing? I'm getting a call. Okay, I got a call. They were telling me no. Hera is not better than my day. So

51:43 therefore fraud. Triby. Triby is the goat. Triby is my goat. My E1 goat. Was it Hera? No, it was my day. I got a call from my day. Is that it? No, it's still not it. No. No, it is it. We did it. We made it through all the DPS's. The last one is Homchat. Homat. Hello, Homscat. Does Homchat belong? Here or here? Scott, where does Homscat belong? Yes, Homchat is might be imprisoned. Proven. You are allegedly going to be able to lose your 50/50s to HCAT soon, which is neat. Uh, I like Honkat. Go fraud. I like I do like Omcat. Omcat used to be a homie. All

52:28 right. Can I post this in faucet? Yeah, we we we can some All right. HSR faucet at rock kiss rage bait. Is it boom? Why is rap above aon? I forget shining. I Yes, I forgot Shinguay and me. What's his name? Misha. Misha. Whatever. What? Whatever. Okay, support time. Yanqing. Oh, I forgot about him. I literally forgot about Yan King. Oh my god, I forgot about Yan King. I forgot about Shuer. I forgot about Shing Shai. Doesn't matter. I forgot about Okay, I have a re Look, it's okay. I do have an excuse for

53:15 not remembering Yon King exists. I've never pulled him. I do have an excuse. I have never pulled him. To be fair, to be completely fair, I do not have him. I can't remember him. Yeah, he's terrible. Anyway, they made a DPS who can't get if he gets touched, he loses his DPS. He takes time. He's focus punch. He's focus punch. His skin is focus punch. He's such a joke of a character. He's such a He's such a joke. Y 100% joke of a character. We'll just punch Letty in. We need to put Sparky twice. Okay, now

54:02 it's support time, baby. Let's go. It's support time. Uh we already ranked some of them. Where were they? Uh something like this. I I knew this. I got this. This is where we were. Yeah, that's it. That's where we were. Okay, we're back. We're back with the supports. I'm sure there were more that I had on the board, but I have no idea where they were, so it's fine. Was it really just this? I guess. I guess it was just this. Okay. Oh, I just got a Zillow comment. Anyway, uh, Black Swan. Black Swan just got her Nova Flare. She's arguably better than Hecillins or Kofka team, which is really interesting. The thing about that comment is technically Black Swan does

54:48 do the most damage of the three, but she also does a lot of that damage because Heelins gives her stacks. She's not as much of a standalone as Heilans. It's a codependency. It's either a very healthy or a very unhealthy throppple. I'm torn between the actual top tier and the second to highest tier. What do you guys think? Chat, what do you think? You going to say second to highest? I never pulled dot. I actually did pull dot besides heel. I pulled dot when black swan released. It was pretty cool when black swan released. Can be not yet. I think we'll put her soon to be fraud for now and reserve the right to move her up. Uh this is Bronnia. Bronn is a proven fraud. Now I I feel the need to

55:34 defend this take. I feel a very strong need to defend this take. Brana super SP negative character. I've seen shout out another friend of this channel do play his free-to-play fine and he had to reset for Brana's E1 SP refund or his FON would not alt. I don't really not think I have to say anything else. I I'm sorry Re. You're you're great but that just made me laugh. She's so SP negative to the point where it's genuinely problematic. Uh it's not as big of a deal now cuz there are better sustains that do not consume SP. There are definitely better sustains that you do not or that you run. It's

56:20 not as big of a deal now, but her only use case is fine on right now. More or less. She should get directly powered twice is definitely a thing. She's all right at E6. Yeah, I'll say it. She's not bad at E6. which is probably the argument for fraud. I have unresolved emotional feelings about Veronica and uh not having SP. So therefore, proven fraud. True. Cereedra, I have a hot take. Serra sucks. Honestly, Serra sucks. I do have a hot take. Uh which is I don't like Seridra. She is a support who is literally only useful for Fon and Fon alone. She might as well be a dead

57:07 pole outside of Phineon. She is the only official harmony character that's actually like that. She's okay with Anaxa. Whatever. Fine. She might be okay with Anaxa. She's copoo with archer. Best in slot for Anaxa. Is she better? Okay. Anaxa is coedra. Oh my god. Okay, fine. Let me let me correct this. >> Axa is okay. Let me correct myself a little bit then. Okay. Cereedra incredibly important support if you play an Axa. Arguably important support if you play Fon. I think you can argue that Sparkle is a better FON support than Cedra technically. What do I have to say? Or what else do I have to say? To

57:54 top tier. Yes, supporting to top tier. Sorry, I'm allergic to saying nice things about Seredra. Uh, okay. Cereedra investigated for five. Fine, I'll give it to you. Cedra, you win this round. Get you next time. You escape for now. Her currency wars kit is actually pretty fun, but unfortunately that's not what she does. We already moved fine on down. We already did that. So lives for now. This is a character that I actually do not like. I think she is ugly. I actually think she's very ugly. I think her kit being so limited is lame. I think her buffs are bad, but she lives this time. I do not like Cerra. I do not enjoy Cereedra. I do not condone

58:40 Cereedra. Why is she so ugly? What is this design? What even? What's even going on with this character? What is her hair? What is her dress? What is she? She's a chest piece. But why does she look like that? It's so busy. Her design's so busy. That being said, her Japanese voice acting or her JP Seu is incredible and I never say I'm an absolute hater. Her voice acting in Japanese is incredible. I cannot speak to any other language. I've only ever played Hong Kong RL in Japanese. It's actually incredible. Great voice. Great vocal performance. So, you win some, you lose some. This look at DM. I don't get

59:27 it. Her head is round. That the joke. The joke is her head is round. Okay. Okay, we'll go with it. Speaking of cats, I wish Cipher was better. Cipher, another top five most attractive character in the I wish I God, I wish Cipher was better. God, I wish he was better. Oh, why is her kid? Okay, let me explain Cipher. Let me explain Cipher. Cipher is a character. She's a thief. She steals damage from your DPS to give to herself, which she can cash out later when she ults. The problem with this is she doesn't store overflow damage. So, what she actually stores is a percentage of the enemy's HP. There are ways that you

1:00:14 can make this kit work. Uh, one of the biggest ones would be to give you that damage on command instead of needing to wait for an ultimate. The other thing is recording overflow damage. The fact that it's a portion of the enemy's HP is crazy because she's meant to be useful with hunt characters. And the thing that holds back hunt characters is because they do 100% of their damage at all times. They're prone to overkilling. You can waste most of an archer skill because you need an archer skill to kill the enemy. Doesn't matter how little HP they have left, you still have to commit those resources. This is the single biggest problem with Cipher. Why does she not record overflow damage? Cipher almost only has downsides for playing

1:01:00 her. The upsides are she's SP positive. Uh she does a little bit of damage. The major thing is she's SP positive. She is a pure normal basic attack character. She does have follow-up attacks and her debuffs do not necessarily need to be applied. They are just applied. You're gonna when we talk about some of the other Nihil characters, you're going to understand why that's kind of a big deal. Oh yeah, she's also smoking hot. Oh yeah, because you literally take away part of your damage to give to Cipher. Sometimes that damage is inaccessible. This is mostly notable in currency wars where you'd love to cash out Cipher, but you just can't. That in of itself, it's a small problem that probably shouldn't

1:01:45 have an energy cost actually. Yeah, that would be one of the ways to fix Cipher for sure. You take away her energy cost. Why does she have an energy cost? Strange. Very strange. I guess you should give her two ultimates. One that doesn't take energy and one that does if you want to incentivize people saving energy for the big moment. Yeah, you do just end up not alting a lot of the time. Uh but yeah, not recording overflow in my opinion is a huge problem. Uh what else do I have to say? Full SP positive made her very good with archer. I think she's technically very good with Sparksy for very similar reasons. She used to be good with Caster. She's not really good with Castus anymore. Also, she does not record quote unquote true damage, which is just an additional multiplier some

1:02:31 characters give, which is some anti- synergy with other supports. Technically a thing. Uh, but yeah, that's kind of what's up with Cipher. God, I wish Cipher was better. Sirene put take soon to be fraud. Sirene is the most honest character in the game. Sirene does not pretend to be useful with characters outside of her year's DPS's. You can't even cope. Sirene also does have very good idolons. We'll talk about that in a second. But what else? Siren. Siren. Siren is balanced in the sense that her buffs are very strong for the A forest characters. And the stronger the buff is, the longer it takes for her to alt. This also means that she can be very frustrating. It definitely means that she can be very frustrating. She's best

1:03:17 used for the mono remembrance team which is like and asteris and isin. She's definitely an E2 merchant in the sense that her E2 makes her alt almost instantly which just makes her just a lot more desirable because you don't have to wait to get the buffs. Oh yeah, I didn't mention why she's so honest. Uh she only buffs M4 characters. If your character is not directly named in the text of her kit, she does not give you nearly as much of a buff. Uh, she can be played with characters outside of those directly named in her kit to get extra buffs. It's just kind of copy zero. Yeah, it's just kind of cop. You can do it. It's not that bad. Just a little cope. But my big problem is just how

1:04:04 slow she is. Yes, the buffs are good. Yes, it's useful. I do not care. Soon to be fraud. It's definitely not copy, too. It's definitely not copy. Donhang Permasaur Terror. I think that's what it is, right? He's a dinosaur. Dino Hang. He's the Donhangsaur. Uh Don Permasaur Terror is really really good. He's uh he's he was free. He is free still. If you log in, he's still free. He's a shielder. He gives an attack buff. He does like no damage. He might as well do no damage. He technically has a good E1 if you did want to pull. You can't pull right now cuz he's not a banner, but if you did

1:04:49 want to pull for him, you could pull E1. Uh his light cone also very good. Biggest problem with Don Hang is that he doesn't really have light cone options besides his own. It's definitely the biggest problem, but there's very little to complain about. He's free. He's free. There's nothing to complain about. If you're complaining about Don Hang, you're kind of an [ __ ] Sustain bad. Zero cycle. Don't use sustain. Okay. You know what's impressive? If you can zero cycle with a sustain. Pretty impressive. Food for thought. Uh uh. Is Fugue better than Cerera? No. I don't think she's a different tier than Cedra. Difference between Aventurine and Donhang is Donhen gives an attack buff, which is kind of more useful than Adventurine. Yeah. Uh,

1:05:35 Fugue. Fugue is the limited version of Harmony Trailblazer or HTV or HMC. I prefer HTV. Uh, Fuga is good with the break DPS's. She is essentially mandatory for Rappa. If you do play Rappa, you can argue because harmony main character can hold dance that they are better. I would tell you your main character of the year is usually spoken for. So, it doesn't really matter. Doesn't really matter even if she was worse than Harmony main character because you're all going to be using Elian main character. Same problem with Remembrance Trailblazer. You won't be able to use them if you're playing Elian Trailblazer, which you probably will. I

1:06:21 really, really do like that they make the Trailblazer good in this game. I wish other games did it more often. Great free characters, great main characters. These are the 100% the top two selling points for Hawkeye Star. Traveler could learn a thing or two from the Trailblazer. They really could. So anyway, uh Fooan, you know, I used to be really down on Fushuan. I still am because she's not fully SP positive. And Lynx is free. That is the thing about Lynx. Why would you play Why would you pull Fuan if you could use Lynx and get more SP? The answer is because you're less likely to die with Fishan, but don't worry about that. Fuan also gives 10% crit rate. Yay. Uh, she's not really

1:07:09 a good enough sustain anymore, is she? 12, not 10. Oh, I'm sorry. Can't sustain with Lynx. You can't sustain with Fushuan either. You can't use either of them anymore. It doesn't. This is semantics. You can't use either of them. I'm questioning if she belongs with Brana or if she belongs with Bo. Where do you think Fushuan belongs? She belong with Boou or does she belong with Brana? Cuz she technically is still a sustain character, which is useful. You can lose 50/50s to her. You will never have the opportunity to pull her cuz she'll never have a banner again. So, you could only get her by losing a I'm torn. She's definitely better than Bo for sure. For sure. For sure. She's definitely better than Bo. I don't know if she's a full tier better though. I'm not sure if

1:07:54 she's a full tier better than Bo. We'll go with proven him. I'll give it to her for now. I reserve the right to drag her down, but we'll give it to her. She can have this one. Gala goat. This guy used to be a mustuse character. Gala goat. My goat. Mustuse character. This was the break sustain fourstar. Oh my god, he was so good. He's super SP positive. The problem with Gallagher now is it's very hard for him to heal you enough. It's very hard for him to actually give you enough healing. You still generally will use Gallagher just because you most players need three sustains. The three sustains that you will play, spoiler, are Hyasin, Donhang,

1:08:40 Permasaur Kai, and Gallagher. Mostly because there isn't a third one that you would want to use. I don't know how high to put him on the list though. He's It's hard now. It's definitely very hard. It's very hard to use him. He's not heal as much as he should. Yes, Ho is getting Nova flared, which will probably replace Gallagher. Probably to Aventurine. I kind of want to put him above Aventurine. He has a lot of the same advantages of Adventurine, which is the full SP positive thing. And he was very good in a specific archetype. Yeah. He's a fraud now. >> Yeah. Yeah. Uh, Yepard. So, I talked about Wait, this they Wait, it probably got cut out. Uh, so I have never pulled Yanqing in my life. I have E1 Jeepard.

1:09:30 This guy's my goat. I get R-rollers every now and then because of Jeopard represent. Yes. And yes, I spend all of my gold tokens on R-Rollers. I don't think I've ever bought a copy of a character from that shop. I've spent them all on rerolls. This is not a joke. This is He's terrible, but I do think he's better than Bo. Or at least I do think he was better than Bo when the shield was good enough. Jeopard is a really, really funny passive, which is if he dies, he gets back up and gets a free alt. Here's the problem with that passive. Jeopard has the highest defense on your team. He's the last person who will die. No one is dying before Jeopard. It's a useless passive. It's It's completely useless. Why does he not

1:10:16 put up shield with skill? He has to ult to put up a shield. Yes, he does come back with full health. All right, Jeopard's a funny guy. He could never be Lynxwin. She's a Dot character before Dot was good. Yeah. No. Yeah. No. All right. I got nothing. You're not playing. Hey, Jeopard skill has a very high freeze chance. Uh what's up with Ha? Does she even do anything anymore? No. Or she doesn't. Lil Hera. Lil Hera. This is one of the four stars you might use. This is one of the ones you might use. She's still not escaping the bottom tier, though. A is getting Nova flared. So, I want to keep that in mind and place her optimistically. The big thing about Halo

1:11:02 is she was the first sustained character to actually do anything. She's not full SP positive. She's actually SP neutral. She's not even SP positive. You have to scale every other turn. But the cool thing about Ho is what you get in return for that. She has an energy refund and an attack buff. Her energy cost is not the best in the world cuz she won't ult on uh every let's say every three turns is what you want. She's not able to do that. It'd be cool if she did, but it's RNG to do that. I don't think it's possible to do that actually. Whatever. Anyway, uh yeah, I think Wo Novaf Flare will improve her energy situation and it will probably extend her buff one turn and if she is being added to the shop, her E1 being free does make her more SP

1:11:48 positive. And also speed is really really good for the elation characters and for the DOT characters. So getting the free speed from E1 also would be very useful. So ho ho things are looking up. Corin, you did it. A I'm getting placed high on the tier list. Yeah, I am going to place Ho above Aventurine and Gallagher. I think things are looking really good for Ho. Be honest. Hol's invest coin. Invest in cash signal. Maybe I'm coping, but I'm going to go with it. This is what I feel right now. We like vibes. The vibes are good. Isillins is another one of the dot characters that you need. I do think she's more important than Black Swan debatably. So, I'm going to put her

1:12:33 above. They're basically the same character. My Silence is really cool. She's got a unique model where her chest is transparent. It's not just a texture. It is a texture, but she's actually lit from inside. It's cool. Very cool character model. Very cool character design. You better believe this character stinks, though. She's got to smell awful. She's a fish. There's no
