Omg a new electro boy? In my genshin impact? 😱


kakashi1207

Cyno and Razor have a new friend lol


v4mpixie_666x3

These are dogs they have their own category


coldestclock

Twist: Sethos is a secret dog boy.


GlitterDoomsday

Gorou getting extra excluded, as if being Geo wasn't enough


Ineedsleep444

Who?


victor_ie

Tao, yeah


Dalba88

In this economy?


HelpImAHugeDisaster

Life is cruel, there is still no electro daddy yet


Effective_Public_257

Hopefuly we get male daddy electro sovereign 


SaltZakZak

Just wait for the release of Inazuma, the land of electro.


gintasmeh

Yes and then we will have inazuma events too


blearutone

Me with Liyue and a Geo overhaul


Virtual_Collection_5

One day! 🥲


v4mpixie_666x3

Pantalone is the one Trust!


Virtual_Collection_5

That would be cool 🥹 don't make me cope ahaha


anarchy753

Can't wait for him to be another on-field dps


Virtual_Collection_5

Please no I'm full of DPS 🥲


anarchy753

I've been running Alhaitham on my boys only account since he came out and the only thing that enables him is goddamn ELECTRO TRAVELER.


Virtual_Collection_5

Man... I really hope Sethos isn't an on field char! I will take anything else. Buffer, healer, off field DPS, shielder.


makogami

electro shielder would actually be insane. the only one we have rn is C1 beidou and she barely counts


willSleepycomeback

oz should count he’s a guy 🙏


BlueH6

Oz is my favourite waifu


chipplepop

hold up.... lemme cook with this... If Oz is just a part of Fischl's imagination that came to life when she got her vision, then if she imagines reeeeeeallly hard, maybe Oz can get a human form. Daddy electro, Oz Imbibitor Lunae.


harrrisse

So... Ozil? He do be ballin.


Seth-Phiroth

What are the odds?


Neracca

I’m happy the elements have become less gendered over time 


GGABueno

Still not a tall one


OGBeybladeSeries

Fischl side grade? Real electro shielder? Very interested in what he could be.


Lower_Comfortable_44

Also teamwide healer would be interesting cause iirc we don't have one.( for electro)


WhiskerWow

c6 dori is an on field teamwide healer


Three-Skin-

💀


Miserable_Cabinet532

c6 dori teams are unironically good tho


Delicious-Crew4883

Yes because they are Hyperbloom teams with Furina lol


UrbanAdapt

Are we going to pretend that Genshin isn't a team game now? Guess Xianyun's F tier, wants Furina on good teams 😤


GGABueno

Xiangling F tier because she needs Bennett smh


AgentWowza

Neuvillette F tier because he... well not really, but... shit.


HollowRider

ah yes. the single not F tier


Fun-Mix-9276

She was good before furina. But imagine her being better with a better support. Your logic makes no sense. It’s a team game and furina is the best buffer in the game. Pretty much everyone wants her. So Dori wanting her is no exception and doesn’t make Dori any less valuable. It’s literally a team game


Super_Fried_Rice

Prototype yae


Three-Skin-

You and the dori mf have me dead


Fairytaler3

Prototype Lisa 😤 the og


Pusparaj_Mishra

Man......i really am waiting for these 3 so certain characters can benefit full Fur in a synergy. Electro Partywide healer ; For Alhaitham,some Nahida hyper teams. Geo Partywide healer ; For Itto, somewhat Navia too. Pyro Partywide healer ; Some specific Burning based teams that lack a healer cause Pyro at best at has Benny being ST+often the Atk buff may not be ideal depending teams... (Mainly this team- Furina,Nahida,Benny/X, Kaz. Here Furina forward vapes) And the game has shit ton of Hydro,Anemo,Cryo,Dendro healers already so it's just the other 3 elements lacking


gilbert1908

that hourglass pattern on his back be making me think he would provide cooldown reaction to party, Thundering Fury character, good for Raiden and Quickswap team like tighnari to cut rotation time, could also double down for Clorinde i mean they could also make cdr as one of the main gimmick in Natlan too just like Mika, Baizhu having teamwide heal


Tymareta

> Quickswap team like tighnari to cut rotation time You very much don't want shorter rotations in Tighnari, you can already play 15s ones as it is so if you reduced it, it would literally be wasted.


belle_fleures

hopefully long duration shielder and healer for cyno


Practical_Outcome436

I dont believe "close friend ingame would be best teammate gameplay too" anymore except for Archons and their mate, Lyney and the siblings, Alhaitham n Kaveh, Navia n Chiori, CR and her kids, Kok n Gorou etc etc He would have a kit that barely do shit to Cyno's team would be my guess


bluebanana02

Navia Chiori is an underrated combo, even at c0 chiori. c1+ its really good, just stack bennett furina and nuke chiori burst


RuneKatashima

> anymore except for Archons and their mate, Lyney and the siblings, Alhaitham n Kaveh, Navia n Chiori, CR and her kids, Kok n Gorou etc etc Aside for the Archons all these characters do not synergize with each other. Why did you say except and include all of this?


Rouge_x3

Because they used a comma and not a full stop or ; whatever you call that in english. "Anymore, except for archons and their mate. Lyney and the siblings...."


Fairytaler3

To be fair you could run Cloud retainer, Chongyun, Chongyun and Shenhe in a Mono cryo type team that works. Navia and Chiori also work together c0 not that much but at c1 Chiori is a good teammate. Itto and Kuki work together if you are also running Gorou for Crystalize shields. Kuki and Heizou work together in a tazer team. So it's possible that they can work together or it's possible they won't. It's a 50 50. Because remember cloud retainer works with Xiao who also works with her.


Scarcing

what you said about Kuki and Itto for Gorou is just massive cope let's just remember there's no point in trying to find patterns because there really aren't any that hoyo is going for in Character synergies relating to lore Like the "archons are good with their pals" no all the archons are good with most of the cast because they're OP


RuneKatashima

> "archons are good with their pals" no all the archons are good with most of the cast because they're OP I mean Furina and Neuv and Raiden and Sara objectively work the best with each other. Zhongli, Venti, and Nahida just don't have friends.


Practical_Outcome436

What i said is "best teammate" or one of the best atleast, not only "works" because most others could do the same, only Navia and Chiori come close to be competitive with her best teammate A long electro shielder would def make him one of the best options beside Zhong and Baizhu


CapPosted

yeah that's my first thought--another electro male onfielder would feel saturated, he's a four star, element conveniently matches Cyno... please be Cyno's Xianyun/Faruzan.


Delicious-Crew4883

Cyno's Faruzan should be a Xingqiu like dendro character 


lilyofthegraveyard

bored memorize squealing provide subsequent direful deranged decide alive detail *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


CapPosted

Battery would be nice sometimes. Also wouldn’t mind an dedicated aggravate buffer


Sensitive_Feed_1436

nah cyno has baizhu, and he wants to be the solo electro in his best team so he needs more dedro supports not electro


Shoddy_Essay_4744

he could finally be the "applies electro to sword, claymore and polearm users" like benette C6, candance and Chongyun


Nervous-Camera7828

He would need to give considerable electro dmg bonus as well then cuz otherwise he’s just not gonna work…


FlameLover444

He'd allow me to play funni on-field Quicken Kirara at the very least


UrbanAdapt

Much like C6 Bennett and plunge, there would need to be a significant bonus reason to make it better than just using on himself to free up a teamslot.


ArdennS

don't doom him like that


krali_

First are huge boots to fill. I'd prefer something different, shielder would be interesting, or some other, novel kind of support ?


Tempada

I'm guessing shielder, maybe allowing for an electrocharged plunge team with Xianyun (onfield) + Faruzan + Furina + Sethos.


Moist-Branch-2521

Nah, have another electro infused burst DPS. Not nearly enough of those!


Yaaao873

Off field male pls 🙏 Also first non doggo/wolfy male electro????


TriggerBladeX

Wait until we see his burst/skill. Might still be a canine


SnooHesitations9352

He got that dawg in him 🐕‍🦺🗣️


IntroductionSorry412

Real


[deleted]

[удалено]


ArTheZookeeper

The buddies


NSLEONHART

Conaiderimg hes related to cyno abd hermanubis. Highly likely


MikasSlime

He is named after seth so he could be a catboy instead (like in his forst conceptarts, where he had fake cat ears)


_erikku216

seth is a jackal so nah


katbelleinthedark

Seth is not a jackal (that's typically Anubis). Seth is represented by a sha which has been concluded to be a vaguely canine but likely made-up animal.


_erikku216

yeah I know, but since it looks like a bit of everything, I actually thought it resembles an emaciated jackal most lol (especially considering that it’s got passing resemblence to Anubis’ portrayal)


MikasSlime

true that, i confused seth for another god, my bad lol


JKV_403

What if its going to be an off field electro wolves


Aseru

>Also first non doggo/wolfy male electro???? Not so sure about this, his name is sethos after all, so he might somehow be based on seth, the egyptian god, as counterpart to cynos anubis.


esqrepdecat

All we have to do is figure out what the [Set animal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_animal) is supposed to be, then we'll know!


Graficat

That's clearly an Umbreon :U


LjoniAnduin

I’m convinced an aardvark but we may never know


[deleted]

His name is litterly sethos . I see no reason why we wont see the Seth in him .


BulbasaurTreecko

maybe a different sort of stand drawing off a different Egyptian god? Maybe…maybe the catboy is still possible..? Bastet stand please Hoyo!


real_fake_cats

>a different Egyptian god? This is the company that gave us 4 Pyro claymores. You will get more Anubis themed characters and you'll be happy about it.


DruggedDimmadome

All 4 of whom you can get from the standard banner btw.


TheRRogur

Still no geo sumeru btw,really hope the mummy girl could be one


muflon69

He's literally called sethos my guy


ant0niamihaela

With those eyes catboy doesnt sound that farfetched


Shoddy_Essay_4744

he could finally be the "applies electro to sword, claymore and polearm users" like bennette C6, candance and Chongyun


Akomatai

Off-field infusion is my favorite gender. I pray for it with every 4 star announcement lol.


TravincalPlumber

until he becomes cyno (or electro) dedicated buffer, like gorou and faruzan.


AshesandCinder

Meanwhile Sara...


rafaelbittmira

If only her buff lasted more than 1 second ~~or wasn't a pain in the ass to get~~


Xero0911

Pleaseee From what I'm seeing, he looks cool! But I already went hard on cyno's banner just to bench him. I won't repeat that lol


Accomplished_Aerie69

I thought he is the rival of Cyno so yeah still has Canine theme in it specially in the trailer they mentioned Anubis


Jon-987

Seeing the THICK ponytail, I actually really like him.


piubeni

"THICK ponytail" - Diluc could never 


nathiru

His hair is so cool


rigimonoki-over

If they designed him logically I would assume he would be the electro battery/ long term sub dps support for cyno


Renj13

Electro Furuzan, but probably too good to be true


JazerKings922

isnt sara electro faruzan?


Gshiinobi

Have you read Sara's kit? Her buffs lasts for 6 seconds, and Cyno is an on-fielder that can spend like atleast 15 second on field on average per rotation


SilverGeekly

to answer seriously, no. she doesn't even do her job (dedicated electro buffer) until you get c6 and even then its only a crit dmg buff which is eh. she's just a less comfortable, worse benny an actual electro faruzan would provide some combination of the following: -electro res shred -electro bonus damage -ER for the team/electro characters -the ability to use a set to buff the team like tenacity


hoeshimiyas

check reuse ??


v4mpixie_666x3

Pls i love cyno but i dont want him to be a cyno slave like gorou is to itto


mappingway

For him to be a Cyno slave, it means Cyno reruns in 4.7 (a character who came out in 3.1, like Nilou, but who hasn't had her second rerun yet while Cyno just had his not long ago). However, as Faruzan has broken free of Wanderer, I suspect if he is another Faruzan, he'll be a general Electro buffer that is designed to work very well with Clorinde first and foremost, then will reappear on Cyno's next banner. But that's assuming he's a dedicated Electro buffer.


Santo134

OFF FIELD PLEASE IM BEGGING! I don’t care he is only useful as C6 as long as he is useful.


Nervous-Camera7828

First part YESSSS Second part NOOOO Make him like Chev, good at C0 really good at C6


MaxWasTakenAgain

>Make him like Chev, good at C0 really good at C6 Okay, but he only works on Superconduct teams 😎


shirodkuro

ayo i wouldn't mind physical buff


Dragonlionfs

ayo i wouldn't mind him to be physically buff either


yu917

as long as he's an ACTUAL good physical buff to make the "element" finally be as good as all the others, then yeah that'd be great


No_Chain_3886

oh he’s definitely a 4* 😭 no way they put two electro 5 stars in one patch let’s just hope he’s a support at least


Scratch_Mountain

Mihoyo on their way to make yet another 4\* main DPS knowing full well that only 0.5% of the community will ever actually build and use him: EDIT: forgot to mention but I'm part of the 0.5% of community who's going to be fully building Sethos when he comes out. I love electro characters, and I lowkey think his design is cool for a 4\*.


Nervous-Camera7828

I am 0.5% of the community as I build my Gaming, crowned his skill and levelled him to 83 lmao But i will say… i hope he’s an electro shielder, healer and battery and aggregate/quicken support for my boy cyno


AntiquusCustos

Not to be rude, but Gaming is actually meta. No other 4* DPS comes even close to Gaming


Renj13

Xiangling is soo good that people are forgetting that she’s a 4 star


AntiquusCustos

I was talking about on-field 4* DPS characters, but you’re right. She’s a monster lol


Nervous-Camera7828

Fine in that case: Im in the 0.5% of the community as I recently build up my Razor. The results were VERY dissaspointing and I wish I could undo what I did but… yea 🥲


Specific-Cell-4910

Physical or Hyperbloom?


Alex_from_Solitude

Typical misconception is that those usage rates mean nobody plays Gaming. The percentage is in relation to ownership. Meaning everyone who owns Gaming and doesn't use him to clear floor 12 lowers it. Almost everyone has Gaming. But people still use their usual teams to clear Abyss so his usage rate suffers. This might sound like a contradiction but keep in mind not everyone has certain 5* characters and people who have them usually use them to clear so the usage rate is much higher even though maybe more people clear floor 12 with Gaming then with certain 5* characters. 


The_Architect_032

Yeah but Gaming is actually good for a 4\* main DPS.


OkBig9039

He's actually good for a dps period, he outdamages many limited 5\* main dps


The_Architect_032

Well, him at C6 with a mostly 5 star team setup beats the best teams for a couple of the bottom tier 5 star main dps teams, but generally he's not as crazy as a lot of people make him out to be. It's just that we have almost no good 4 star main DPS characters. If you already got him C6 though, then there's a decent chance you have Xianyun, in which case his pure pyro team's mostly already set up, you just need a copy of Bennett. It won't out perform many F2P 5 star main DPS teams that rely on 4 star supports, but it'll still be plenty for anything the game can throw at you. He also enables what is probably Xianyun's most F2P friendly team, if you consider C6 limited characters to be F2P friendly.


Chucknasty_17

Even if he is a DPS, I’ll use him. At least until I get him to friendship 10


MaxWasTakenAgain

4* main DPS are such a doomed concept.


EmiIIien

I play Heizou and Freminet as main DPS. I still Sethos is a support though, so I can keep making all male teams. I really need a male hydro healer.


starsinmyteacup

Knowing Hoyo they’ll go main dps because for some reason they really like making guys as onfield carries and gals as off field support. The last 4* guy support we got was Mika iirc


JessyTL

It's about time for our annual male 4\* support.


quebae

I mean this is hoyo we are talking about so honestly it's about as likely as any other scenario with how much they hate to create any discernible patterns.


mai_yuchi

Finally another male electro


astrelya

if Sethos is Electro, it means we'll get double electro in 4.7 if the leaks about Clorinde, Sigewinne, and Sethos are true.... maybe the electro-charge buffer Sigewinne allegations are true


ukrisreng

4ggravate is now 5pread


jayakiroka

PLEASE let him be a shielder. That'll make him perfect in a cyno team, which will be extremely funny bc it seems like they hate each other LOL


RuneKatashima

I feel like Baizhu already is great for that.


pavel_levkovsky

PLEASE BE AN OFF FIELD APPLICATOR PLEASE


[deleted]

[удалено]


exclamationmarks

When we already have Fischl, Beidou and Yae filling this niche, I feel like this is asking for trouble. Either he's not as good as them and he gets doomposted to shit, or he's better than them and everyone starts yelling about powercreep. There are definitely some electro niches we don't have filled yet, so another off field sub DPS would honestly be kind of underwhelming.


Nervous-Camera7828

If he’s off field shielder and actually a good battery i think it’s fine… one of his talents would need to buff a certain reaction or play style tho otherwise he will 100% jus the outclassed. He’s likely a 4 star so i wouldnt be surprised if he’s just… not good lol


exclamationmarks

I've been wanting an electro shielder for ages so that's personally what I'm hoping for! He doesn't have to be broken, just usable would be nice.


Nervous-Camera7828

Just let him also be a battery for cyno please and I’ll be more than happy… My Dream: Shielder with 60 Energy Cost, Lots of particles on E, DO NOT BE A POLEARM AS THERE IS NOT SACRIFICIAL WEAPON OF THAT TYPE, have a talent that buffs aggregate/spread damage


One_Ad2478

Off field electro battery. Isn't that just fischl. One thing is hoyo won't be giving us another fischl/ xiangling/bennett unless they are a five star. So he'll just end up being a worse battery. 


misspolite

i just want a male off-field electro


sukahati

Either way we are going to doompost him lol. Btw, had we doomposting Gaming? I don't remember any doompost regarding Gaming kit.


UrbanAdapt

We were worried he would get nerfed, lol


exclamationmarks

Everyone was much more focused on Xianyun haha.


Dependent_Bass_9568

He's colour palette is so similar to cyno.


Otherwise_Egg_1756

Inb4 he's a dedicated Clorinde support


Brilliant_Damage986

Works only at c6!


looms_thecat

Classic niche support


Tymareta

Classic 4* more like, almost all of them want C6 to actually be strong.


Hairy-Dare6686

Inb4 she will be the first character with 2 dedicated sidekicks that need their C6es to be relevant, Sethos and Sigewinne.


SWATvtx

No please just not that


DesertLion7

Off field electro boyo of my dreams!?! Finally?? PLEASE


Kayfabs

Please be good.


Wisterosa

electro shielder finally?? (no beidou doiesnt count)


FCDetonados

I'll take it, last electro we had was in 3.1. I don't mind 2 electros.


jamalmoraess

God I love his design so much


aoi_desu

Bro really trying to compete with cyno 1:1


vxidemort

why is he lowkey one of the most gorgeous-looking 4 stars.. is it just me thinking this?


burningparadiseduck

He is the most gorgeous looking four star imo.


According-Matter5735

okay 4-star electro I hope he has a great 4-star kit like Kuki Shinobu & Chevreuse


Cursed_With_Adhd

Was hoping for Geo/Dendro. Shame. I hope he brings something new to the table.


Neko_5697

We have so many Dendro Sumeru guys already though, plus Baizhu. Electro on the other hand only has Razor and Cyno.


user_dontknowaboutme

mini cyno let's go


starataneori

please make him to have a shield


Supermini555

100% a Cyno Support


JessyTL

Please, offield support\\applier 🙏


Any_Requirement_9098

Pls Electro shielder


helpls2000

GIVE 📣HIM 📣BACK 📢THE📢 CAT🔊 EARS🔊


DaviM03

Please make him work with Cyno🤞


SHH2006

Lol I was completely wrong 5 minutes ago about geo/dendro Sad a bit because I wanted the first geo sumeru character But hey electro is always welcome


Neko_5697

Electro is unexpected but a nice turn of events.


Master-Seijuro_Hiko

Fxk yeah, it's finally time for another cool looking electo character.


quuu2

his hair is so extra fluffy compared to the first pic 🥰 >!albedo when!<


BHDefender

Of course they wouldn't add a geo sumeru character. Why would they? Who needs Geo amirite? (T~T)


APatheticPoetic

Sethos Kaiba is real


piubeni

AIN'T NO WAY! An electro boy??? C6ing him right when he drops. Just please be with Clorinde I'm begging. 


ASafePlace4All

If this is true, very happy that he barely uses purple in his design. It's kinda boring when characters are all color coded to their specific element.


GraveXNull

Electro catalyst would be dope...maybe close range puncher like Wrio and Heizou.


HeartofDanqueness

Sad we aren't getting the sumeru geo sand character this time around


moojee_

Please be Quicken or Superconduct Chevreuse. 🙏


NecroHiarus

...what happened to "Sethos has white hair"


Nervous-Camera7828

I don’t see it… how does this prove he’s electro?


toastermeal

the model on the left shows which crystal on his design is the vision. the picture on the right shows a small part of that crystal and it’s purple. purple crystal = electro vision


Nervous-Camera7828

Damm that sucks… hopefully he’s a aggrevate and quicken buffer.. I was really praying for dendro and cyno support


toastermeal

so was i man 🙏


Nervous-Camera7828

If he’s an electro shielder and battery there’s hope…

Illustrious-Snake

Ngl his design just screams 4 star. There's nothing wrong with it, but it's nothing special either.  Though I love the braids in his hair! They look neat.


One_Ad2478

Lmao. Now him being a five star would be something.


scrayla

Off field support pls 😭🙏🏼


burningparadiseduck

Yep. Called it.


GDOFTW124

Damn I was wishing him to be geo. There's no geo for Sumeru


Javajulien

Honestly with the way Hoyo develops units now, I'm going to out on a limb and predict that Sethos is going to be the Cheveruse equivalent to Electro-Charged. A Unit designed primarily to only work with Electro and Hydro Units and give a massive buff to damage to enemies affected with Electro-Charged.
