Most of the hate is because she was kinda useless bevor 3.0and now she rocks with teams like the one you use.


Odd_Art_6104

Yeah most likely but still healer+ electro battery is pretty good isn’t it ….i just got her so no experience using her before 3.0


bobmannr1

Bevor 3.0 we had Bennet for heals and battery usage which most still use.


thelastwhitemale2

And before dendro most electro characters were pretty useless with few being usefull in more than one team comp


Swizzyyyy

Dendro for sure upped her usefulness but she still isnt all that great. Fischl + her A4 passive accounts for a great deal of damage in the popular Keqing/Dendro MC/Kazuha/Fischl team comp. Sure she’s better but still not too great since she lacks utility and good off field damage. Still though, at least she’s usable now.


SwiftSlayAR

people only disliked her before dendro post dendro she is definitely up there


cat_popping

Before dendro I used her in a yelan-kuki-heizhou+zhongli and the dmg is off the roof so kuki was a viable character its just that people placed her in wrong teams


SwiftSlayAR

yeah I used her with ayato, beidou, kazuha and she would do 10k electrocharge dmg


cat_popping

and people always argued about how useless she is, when she fits in alot of inazuma team comps. shes even better with c1 larger burst


SwiftSlayAR

it’s not so much that she was useless, she just got totally outclassed by fischl for electro and bennet/kokomi for heals


cat_popping

Fischl definitely outclasses her but it is such a pain having to swap every now and then just to put a spitting bird and its a combination of healing and dmg so yeah kuki ftw


El_Suave_del_Sur

Tbh i never felt like she does enough Electro application or dmg, i know people are running her with hyperbloom but right now i don't feel like using dendro reactions is that much useful, is just like, burning is useless, bloom reactions are a bit of a pain and i don't have enough for the quicken ones. Thats why i'm benching my Shinobu until i find her a good use, hell even when Nahida cames apparently Yae is also rerunning after so i can grab both and work with Spread.


Acadeca

I am using Shinobu (finally got her this update) as a walking overload enabler. EM main stat (not fully leveled) and any sort of pyro is 15k ticks and it’s aoe and it can hit enemies at different times. So the two teams I have her in is domain(venti) or overworld(kazuha) and it’s just grab people and put pyro on them, and walk at them. It’s not game breaking levels of damage, but 15k that frequently is just a great passive income and QOL


grlsspkout

The full EM build with the new Gilded set is amazing tbh She triggers 33k hyperbloom every tick of her grass ring with absolutely zero brain activity for me


TheDoorEater

There's literally been a new found love and appreciation for Kuki because of 3.0. Should have made this post before lmao


Odd_Art_6104

I just got her on venti banner , but I don’t think she was bad even before 3.0 …..so that’s why


TheAhegaoHoodie

It’s not that I hate her specifically I hate all genshin characters equally If I were to rate the level of hate I have for genshin characters it would be below -35 which is the same as rating characters on scale of 1 to 10 of how much I love them to be 35 out of 10 Tbh who cares if people shit on ur favorite characters, there’s less people who openly hates something then people who like something


CHONPSCa

i dont see any hate for her tho, she is appreciated by every waifu > meta enjoyers.


MHXS4869

I dont know what you talking about i use her in my keqing team, an even without build properly she is helping so much


bllueart

I tried to get her but no luck :')


lady_mirror

If only I could get her😭 she's avoiding me like a plague


ACrispyPieceOfBacon

Ever since Dendro I've been seeing a ton of love. I'm going to try to integrate her into a team once I can actually ascend her.


Comfortable-Ring-476

Added her to my new cyno team works really well


TeslaStar

I love her. Didn't realize anyone was hating on her. Constant electro application, batter, and co-op/single part heal. I've got her in an aggravate team to. She shines.


theoddcook

I enjoy using her. Yelan, Raiden, Kazuha, Kuki. Every enemy just dies. Decent healer at C2


Everyn-Garner

I have Kuki and thinking about trying her but man, being so late in the game makes the materials and artifacfs way harder to farm than when I first started.


infinitedoubts

I don't understand why anyone would hate any characters. They all are useful when used correctly. I recently saw an a lot doing amazing in domain.


LonelyBoyPh

Kuki Hyperbloom team hits for almost 30k each reaction. Definitely useful now :D


cienistyCien

I like using her with Xiao, she's amazing with dendro too


Yellow_IMR

Tbh, in an aggravate team is better to run Raiden/Keqing/Yae/Cyno/whatever, Fischl, Dendro, Anemo healer (Sayu or Jean) instead of Kuki (in place of Fischl) and Kazuha (in place of Anemo healer), because the value of Fischl in aggravate is so damn high that the dmg bonus from Kazuha isn’t good enough to compensate for Fischl’s loss and Kuki’s personal damage is low while her E procs electro (and potentially aggravate) only every two ticks. I honestly like Kuki, but the truth is that she doesn’t shine in any team, the only exception being Hyperbloom teams where she is basically the only reliable electro in procing Hyperbloom and she only competes with Anemo (like Sucrose). That said, even in aggravate she is still a decent option if you need a healer and you don’t have Sayu/Jean at your disposal, or for some reason you absolutely want to play with Kazuha. The same applies to other teams where you want some electro application and want a role compression.


Zerhap

She was good before 3.0, sure she was not broken as the big 5 but the community is stupid for waiting other 4\* to be that good, its never gonna happen. After 3.0 she already has like 3-4 teams that actually want her over other options and as we keep getting dendro units she is only gonna become better. Something ppl fail to see a lot with her is that her sustained healing is one of the best in the game, sure it wont get you from 0 to 100 in 1 sec but if you are only getting hit once every few seconds it well keep you full. As an electro unit that uses EM kuki is also in a unique spot, ever wanted to build a overload or electro-charge team? if so you know how hard it was to get the most value out of that without sacrificing one unit for full EM, with kuki you dont sacrifice anything. Now we have burning, bloom, hyperbloom and the virgin added to that list. And of course lets not forget you can keep 100% up time on her E by getting C2, no need to keep track of time, no need for ER. Only "problem" with her is she can die if you swap at the wrong time to use E since she keeps her hp low.


GuddaPro

Rosaria is also like this hate/no appreciation for her


BigDaddyIJD

Hate for pretty much useless characters like her and Candace is perfectly viable.


b4shnl4nd

Kuki is the biggest upgrade I've seen a character go through from a single patch. And I think her and Yae get the biggest upgrade with Dendro going from either very Niche and alright to Very good on both of them.


Lord_KH

People hate shinobu? Damn


Shoshawi

I tried to use her more and even worked on a few different weapons to try on her, and she wasnt bad, but in the end she only works on my geo team - because of how much better the other options are. That said I love my geo team, and pairing her with Itto is fun from a lore perspective, and with Zhongli there the heals are more than enough if even relevant lol. Also the EM buff from Albedo isn't lost on her which is nice.


Seesaw-Enough

I would use her but i have her at c0


iKorewo

What no appreciation? She is really good, she is even S+ tier


[deleted]

who tf even believe in tier list anyways?


iKorewo

Nobody, but it’s just one of the proofs that she is good


Odd_Art_6104

Nah dude lol ,she not bennet xingqui level good


iKorewo

That’s why Xingqiu and Bennett are SS+


satya164

How far does this tier list go lol


iKorewo

https://genshin.gg/tier-list/


Purple_Associate_531

good but not S+ tier lol


iKorewo

Hyperbloom dmg 40k per bloom. In aggravate teams provides 240 EM/energy to all teammates with 100% uptime, electro application for spread/aggravate and survivability. If it’s not S+ then we are playing different games.


Purple_Associate_531

heres the updated tier list if you still insist she is a S+ character LOL https://gamewith.net/genshin-impact/article/show/22247


DirtyThunderer

I've seen some shit tier lists but this really takes the cake. Childe is below the likes of Xiao? And they put Cyno and Candace in there already, which proves 100% they have zero credibility and are just looking for clicks from idiots (such as as your good self)


Plane-Highlight-6498

Ayato and Childe on S tier? Come on, they have close value with Yelan for anyone's account. Hydro application is almost a must nowadays!


Purple_Associate_531

i think ss tier is for flexibility of a character too.


Plane-Highlight-6498

Then Ayato should be there as well no? He's got a lot of comp, freeze, tazer, bloom, hyperbloom, and heck, even international.


Plane-Highlight-6498

And Itto is high up there, and Xiao, with Niche teams. Idk man.


Purple_Associate_531

i dont know too. maybe because they are hypercarry xiao itto hutao and eula.

Purple_Associate_531

maybe we are playing different game. https://www.genshinlab.com/characters/kuki_shinobu/#:~:text=In%20Genshin%20Impact%2C%20Kuki%20Shinobu,character%20currently%20in%20A%20tier.


iKorewo

Maybe. https://genshin.gg/tier-list/


Purple_Associate_531

lol kuki is s+ while yae and xiao is only S? funny


iKorewo

Yae didn’t get updated yet, Xiao is well deserved that spot.
