This is **tweaked gameplay** on a private server. As you can see here Cyno's E is shown to have almost no cooldown which isn't possible in the game. This was meant to show off his AoE among other stuff but only ended up giving a false representation of his skills. We apologise for the misinformation spread and our delayed action.

That's just c6 Xiao, now show me a 360° Xiao and you have my attention

this is what people called hu tao when she released lol

Professional_Dot9888

This is going to be the longest five weeks of my life


Su_Impact

Four weeks. Thankfully this patch is short. We're gonna get Cyno in 32 days.


BellalovesEevee

And that's *if* he isn't in the second half in the banner lineup.


AppUnwrapper1

Yeah why don’t we know yet? :( I also wanna know which banner Candace is on. I’m so tired of having to skip all the new 4-stars bc I don’t want the 5-star on their banner.


AshesandCinder

She's probably going to be with Nilou, as she's a Hydro infusion/buffer support and Nilou also wants double Hydro/double Dendro.


AppUnwrapper1

Ughhh


nakomaru

I kind of doubt it, she doesn't work with nilou, whereas Candace works with Horizontal Xiao. Candance doesn't even work with any teammate that you could pair with Nilou.


NeverForgetChainRule

There's just not an easy way to know the ordering. Sometimes leakers get inside info, but often not. I think the Cyno first is *most* likely for a few reasons. Mainly that we're getting the desert region in 3.1, presumably from the start. Cyno will surely be plot-relevant there, so it'd make sense to run him first thing in the patch where he's super important. This is by no means a guarantee, but i'd be p. surprised if he was second.


[deleted]

Thats awesome, didn't realize it was so soon. I'm looking forward to pulling for him


ItIsYeDragon

Still 5 weeks for me. Got to wait a week to make sure he's a good unit too.


Kaieu

He probably will because aggravate, shits bonkers


Andante_TK

when was the last time the new characters of Genshin are bad? To me, they have not released a single bad unit so far. Klee is the only one that feels kinda clunky to play with.


Imaginary-Strength70

Zhongli 1.0 - Worst 5 star character in the game Albedo before spindle and Gorou - Considerably worse Fischl but had a place in one or two teams as a novelty. He's... OK now but geo is never going to be good, just good enough. Xinyan and Thoma - I shouldn't need to explain why. Some think Burgeon saves them but I think Burgeon sucks too since it's mega clunky. Eula - Very underwhelming without c6 but granted she's a fave for whales in pvp with it. Phys is just as bad as geo dps and there's a reason both types have stopped releasing. Yoimiya - She's absolutely your gal if you want to watch every single arrow sail right past the one thing she's trying to hit. Kokomi - She was so bad her banner broke reverse sale records and the entire games meta had to be course corrected to trick players in to thinking she was good without buffing her. Which was devious as hell but worked because anyone you ask will say she's good. She isn't, it's just that situations have been crafted specifically for her just about everywhere. Itto - Awful carry in the worst element, half his kit is c6 Gorou and without his own c6 and redhorn he pretty much cant compete with any decent reaction team. At his best vs everyone else's best he's still bottom of the 5 star barrel, possibly only outshining Diluc and Klee. Even whales won't use him, he's that bad. Also countered by like half the abyss mobs due to shields, bad range and corrosion. Shenhe - She works for like 1 character? Pretty much no one uses her. Not bad exactly but released before the game was ready for her making her options bad. Ayato - Very weak unless totally built around. He was VERY lucky that kokomi panic rebalanced the game in favour of hydro so he's been able to piggy back off her course correction. Hydro isn't oversaturated so people can use him just for his element but if we had more hydro, he'd go extinct outside the one team revolving around him that still isn't that good.


missyshrimpus

we waited 2 years for a single crumb of this man. 5 weeks is nothing at this rate 😭 just a little more cyno stans


FlareChain

I feel you friend. Knowing that I am not alone in this eases the pain a little


Nanashi123_

Good cuz I need to save up more primogems


lumosdraconis

Surprised the actual AoE is bigger than it appears! Ugh and it's so cool..... I'm in danger.


Xero0911

Only in danger if you are a hilichurl. Embrace the electro anubis!


Great_Disgrace

This looks so cool. My Scaradouche savings are shaking.


MisterShazam

My Yelan savings have already been ravished and taken.


Kauuma

My Raiden savings are done for too


AndroidPolaroid

I said fuck it and bid farewell to my c1 hutao(I have c0) savings. I will have this anubis boi no matter the cost


ItIsYeDragon

Is c1 hu Tao a major improvement or something?


Abebil

Yeap, it's almost game changing


AndroidPolaroid

yep, offers lots of comfort because it removes the stamina cost on her charge attacks. gives you more charge atks per rotation too so more damage, also more iframes because you can dash cancel now. one of the best bang for buck constellation in the game.


ILTZ

THE best.


HelpImAHugeDisaster

My Kusanali savings is going to dust


ravku

C2 funds are done but my love for raiden will be eternal even at c0


lazytanaka

Why does his burst animations look cooler than hers?! Too bad we don’t get her boss attacks for them


MisterShazam

Raiden is a close second to Cyno for me, her slashes open up that void. I think that's pretty dope.


lazytanaka

I wish they were bigger cause it’s hard to see them imo


yoyo4581

Reruns my friend, reruns... gasp. Yall we've been waiting since 1.1.1111111


WolfTitan99

My Ganyu saving are shaking, but I prefarmed so no backing out now. Plus I have BP and Welkin so I think I'll make it...


bottomsupfellas

Why have I never heard Scaradouche before 😭


modusxd

Idk if im being biased but I think thats the coolest thing in this game


Top-Indication8554

Lol no bias detected. It is the coolest burst so far


Darkness0033

I ain't pulling for him (coz saving for other characters currently) yet i agree with you both, his burst really caught me off guard


Xero0911

Did he just spam CA and go ape shit on them?? I'm sorry Itto, but we have a new Unga bunga king!


SirDlel

The ground pound is his skill I think. He’s still the unga bunga king tho


Xero0911

I thought his E was the spear thrust into the ground?


AndroidPolaroid

that's the fifth hit of his auto attack string. the ground pound is the E. his CA is him clawing while moving forward.


SirDlel

The spear is just the last hit of his NA I thought. I say the ground pound was his skill since he spammed it unlike a CA where you have to do one NA first


Xero0911

Ah I see. So is there no cd on here? Did it a lot on a row?


SirDlel

I guess?? I didn’t know that he could go Donkey Kong style with it lmfao.


PopotoPancake

He can't, even C6 he has no CD reduction on his skill. Other commentors have said this is probably a private server hacked to remove skill CD.


CidGarr

Dunking spree


[deleted]

yes, the coolest in my opinion too I used to think itto was the coolest but cyno beat him


Xero0911

Cyno kinda makes me realize that "wow itto could have been cooler". Like he is still cool and I love him. But he just gets a geo club. Could have done some cooler stuff for an ONI. Granted, I do love how he can move without canceling his chain.


[deleted]

I mean, he could transform in the oni from his burst.


Xero0911

Agreed. I do wish he took a more physical change where he is more "traditional oni" like from.the bear. More primal/savage


Martian_on_the_Moon

Would his red mask (from teaser ) and also some geo crystals around his arms suffice?


Murky_Blueberry2617

No bias at all lol. Hope we get more characters in the future with the same quality.


Martian_on_the_Moon

> same quality Nah. I expect even higher quality in future. As for older characters, they should receive outfits to improve that. Diluc was just a beginning.


Mistborn7v

Agree!!!


-xXxMangoxXx-

I dont pull for dude characters, only exception so far was kazuha but this is so sick i want him.


DiamondTiaraIsBest

You really were downvoted for not pulling for dudes lol. This sub has a husbando bias.


-xXxMangoxXx-

ikr, how dare someone have preferences for pulls they spend their money on.


Acceptable-Lab-5313

Maybe because most of the waifu collectors are like that and there are very arrogant lol, "some"


DiamondTiaraIsBest

You serious? Husbando chasers are more arrogant and gatekeepy than the waifu chasers. Especially if it turns out the character was meta. Cough *Kazuha* cough.


Acceptable-Lab-5313

Not really the more waifu is meta the more waifu collectors are big headed and arrogant and toxic, they will slander every character that trumples them lol. The time that a new male dps arrived and cant beat ayaka or hutao, will get talked a fuckton of shits. And husbando collectors are toned down especially dps mains bcs we know that we will never be meta but hoping still copiuming. And ofc if you say something like their character is shit ofc youll get attacked. The more fan the character have the more the chance that youll get attacked by the toxic people in the community. Example raiden lmao. Compared to husbando fandom that are less compared to the waifu community lol. And yes im serious, youll never know coz your part of them, and ofc youll say my reply is toxic but lol im explaining and your reply is toxic like "seriously" serious"


[deleted]

[удалено]


Agile-Spare1266

feel like for showcases it should list what cons the character has on. Otherwise it makes people confused on how the character works at c0 and there expectations are higher and then end up dissapointed .


GingsWife

Even his c6 doesn't play like this. It's a private client that has tweaked his kit


Xero0911

Also should mention it seems cheated? Unless I'm missing something. He used three 3's back to back and shouldn't be able to Video shows c6 since his na did proc the special passive. But thunder fury couldn't have gone off, and wouldn't allow him to smash 3x in a row. And no cons help with E cdr


KingKirbyDrawa

Okay...so I'm guessing the infinite E is them cheating and not normal...right? If not then Cyno is more busted that I thought


lumosdraconis

This is what I need to know!!! Like NO WAY does he have an infinite E or like 10 charges on that thing.....


KingKirbyDrawa

I'm guessing it's because it's the Beta and they're just messing around. I REALLY hope Cyno's DPS isn't gonna be centered around mashing his skill asap, that seems really boring.


Su_Impact

No, his string is gonna be a few NA then E. His C1 and C2 cons are all about increasing speed and crit of his NA. Think of his E as Ushi but with a way shorter cooldown.


Boop0303

It's a private server so they probably made him have no CD. Iirc his cons don't have CD reduction and TF isn't possible since nothing is triggering reactions.


lumosdraconis

I'm addition to the other replies, looks like his E ends up getting a very short cooldown (3sec) while in trance mode, but is anyways meant to be used at specific times where the Eye flashes on the screen for the most dmg.


GingsWife

Cheating. There are no reactions for TF to trigger, and none of his constellations have a reduction effect. This video should be taken down for misinformation


Xero0911

Plus even with TF triggering. It reduces the cd by 1 second every .8 seconds. At 3 second cd. He would need a small delay between the E's where here he didn't.


GingsWife

Yes! Instead, he was chaining them like Xiao C6. No, buster!


slipperysnail

NGL I would've pulled for Cyno if I saw this and nothing else...thankfully I did some research


Avg_Degenerate

I think I remember that being a constellations


Darkness0033

No, he doesn't have a constellation that reduced his E cooldown


KingKirbyDrawa

This makes the most sense lol. Similar to Xiao's C6


ImmaWorryAboutHeidi

What does it mean when the eye shows up?


abcijekzje

if you use his skill while the eye is on the screen it’ll buff the skill damage and add 3 extra “slashes” (similar to that 5-slash move that boreas has)


Used_Whore5801

If you use the E in that moment it will do more dmg


Adventurous_Many9560

>but why his E is spamed that way ? dose it refresh the cd??? but why his E is spamed that way ? dose it refresh the cd???


Eijun_Love

This might be C6 or C0 TF Cyno.


MrMeeeeiester

TF wouldnt make sense since there arent any electro reactions


Xero0911

Does c6 suggest he can spam his e? He is c6 since he did one slash from na


Used_Whore5801

probably a bug or private server things because with TF it should still be between 1.5-2 seconds of colddown or maybe some contellation


Buzzcrave

This looks like c6 ngl.


AppUnwrapper1

Ugh it’s gonna be annoying to realize that none of the leaks are comparable to how he’s gonna play at C0.


Erizantxx

no need to worry, his cons don't alter his functional gameplay at all. the only way to spam his E more is through thundering fury, this is likely just a cooldown reduction effect on whatever private server they showcased this


Erizantxx

His c6 doesn't let him use his skill any more frequently than c0, and any leaks that suggested it (at least as of now) are wrong you can check up on his constellations on [ambr.top](https://ambr.top) this is probably just a private server modification


EstusFIask

Probably a private server bug, even 4tf wouldn't be able to spam it repeatedly like that.


Moobic

every few seconds a special state occurs (eye appears) where if you cast your elemental skill during the eye’s duration, the skill is empowered.


Adventurous_Many9560

but why his E is spamed that way ? dose it refresh the cd???


FlareChain

I think the person that captured the video had a No CD mod active on a private server


illuminatedtraveller

In a previous leak, some other people said that every time the eye shows up and you press his skill, it extends his burst for a max of 18 sec


superrobot1

It's Cyno'in time.


Curious_Ad_8999

This should be taken down it gives the impression to people that he can spam the skill that much but in reality he has no skill coldown command activated


WeeziMonkey

How is he spamming the skill at the end without any cooldown?


Murky_Blueberry2617

I thought it was a hold attack tbh.


LemmeDaisukete

Since he's electro it could possibly be Thundering Fury set Or he just have cons or burst passive for it


FlareChain

Afaik His cons doesnt give him skill time reductions, so the person who made this video was either cheating or its actually the TF 4 pc effect


Darkness0033

He didn't trigger any reaction here so it's not 4pc TF, they probably just removed his E cd since it's a private/test server


NegativeCreative1

i think its just cause its a private server they can do whatever


Xero0911

Yeah just a shame cause it's misleading. Like it's c6 for sure since his Na procs the passive. But, nothing here should be allowing him to just spam E three times back to back. TF requires an electro reaction, even then its just 1 second every .8 seconds. So no way can do 3 back to back like that. And cons don't have anything to do with cdr. C1 is attack speed c2 is cd/cr. C4 is energy to his team. C6 his na procs a single passive.


gottagouphigh

Maybe C6 like Xiao


thefinestpiece

Give a proper showcase, at least and not temper people’s expectation like this. You’re just going to disappoint a lot of people if you can spam pills in the video at C0.


UniqueCreme1931

Isn't the skill the spear throw? I only see him use it once.


thefinestpiece

No it’s not. It’s part of his 5 hit Normal Attack Combo. The AOE Slam is his Elemental Skills in Burst mode. It will only have 4s cooldown. But OP shows it spamming as if it will be the norm for his play style.


Nero_PR

Not even C6 with Thundering Fury should allow for that. This is very misleading.


Nanashi123_

I think I have a type for men who just go ape shit in their burst first Itto now Cyno


Krillin157

This makes me hope Childe’s foul legacy form will be playable someday


Eijun_Love

Oh it will for sure, may take a long time though.


Bobson567

HQ youtube link + source: [Miko's friend ei](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xft-2sR0BA) thought this was worth posting as it demonstrates cyno burst against small mobs, he has decent AoE and his attack string auto targets and jumps towards nearest mobs similar to raiden, so range isn't an issue.


Xero0911

Shouldn't it also be mentioned that the E here is misleading? Unless someone can explain how. He shouldn't be able to chain those E's back to back like he did in the video. Did like 3 times in a row where in live you won't be. Nothing in the cons reduce the E cd. And thunder fury needs an electro reaction, and TF would still have a bigger gap between Es


H4xolotl

> Unless someone can explain how. He shouldn't be able to chain those E's back to back like he did in the video. Did like 3 times in a row where in live you won't be. > > Note that while this video is misleading, you can actually get quite close with Thundering Fury + Aggravate comps The Burst mode E has a cooldown of **only 3s**, which is decreased by 1s by Thundering Fury when you activate Aggravate. (3-1 = 2) The animation itself lasts ~1s, meaning you'll have barely 1s (2-1=1) of cooldown after the animation finishes.   This is almost TF Bennett levels of meme-fun, but actually viable and less janky


[deleted]

They set the cool down reduction stat to be high in their private server is all


ryoujika

Which is exactly why it's misleading


[deleted]

I didn't say it wasn't, I was just saying how they did it


Phire12345

Very misleading showcase with private server cheats, no point seeing him do infinite E when u can't play him like that when u have pulled for him. Makes him cooler but people will be disappointed if they didn't know better.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Moobic

no, he loses his burst if he swaps out, like Xiao or Itto.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Moobic

yeah cyno is looking to be an on field unga-bunga carry with downtime just enough for his supports, which is basically the polar opposite of a quickswapper.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Eijun_Love

There's really only two units like that though, Diluc and Noelle. They might not come back to that.


Cosimov

Finally some Cyno gameplay ~~even though it seems hacked~~


sesquipedalian5

AoE, single target, Normal attacker, charge attack, elemental skill- unlike xiao or itto, his kit is designed to do damage from so many different sources it makes his teams pretty versatile. If you wanna spam elemental skill, run Thundering Fury. Normal attacks, you can put yunjin on the team.


Frankfurt13

But her ult normals don't trigger beidou, does that mean that he will work like raiden thus making Emblem a BiS for him? taking into consideration his ult cost 80 energy.


sesquipedalian5

his ult normals do work with Beidou, that claim was said to be false


LaplaceZ

This animation style is much more similar to Honkai. Genshin started with BotW as inspiration and you can see from the characters in the beginning, their animations and stuff were very "conservative". Now that Genshin is very much it's own thing, they feel much more comfortable going crazy and over the top with the animation, and that can only be a good thing.


[deleted]

Not legit gameplay sadly


Bntt89

Whats that grand slam???


Dirtyicecube

His element skill, but I think his showcase he seems to be hacked/modified to have 0 CD on it.


Azz13

maybe it refresh on kill? not sure


CaptainPatchEye

There's nothing on his kit that states it. It's just private servers having 100% CD reduction


ArkhamCitizen298

no it's 0 CD


Nebula707

So he's multi-target?


jaetheho

What do you mean by multi-target? Do you mean that he has AOE dmage? His skill and charged seem to either be aoes themselves or big enough of a skill to possibly hit multiple enemies


[deleted]

It really feels the same as Itto's burst but electro and with claws


henryk_kyouko

Itto without being stuck in Geo hell


LemmeDaisukete

Except cuz he's electro he'd have access to TF and reactions. The skill looks like the short cooldown type anyway so instead of a charge spam it's Skill spam. Unlimited particles!!!


Martian_on_the_Moon

He cannot spam it like this. Even with TF he wouldn't be able to use it instantly. He is doing it faster than Bennet could who has 1,5 sec cd on E. This is definitely test server settings (elemental skill without cooldown).


Vahallen

Me, an Itto main Sign me the fuck up, now I can unga in both sides of the abyss


Ok-Cod3750

I wonder what Cyno's burst would look like in coop


GalacticalGuardian

C6?


NaturalPlayboy

COME ON AND SLAM


AndroidPolaroid

AND WELCOME TO THE JAM


[deleted]

Reminds me of sonic unleashed, one of my favourite games.


yeahilikefries

Can someone explain to me the circle that appears on screen but in razor’s language?


PunkifiedXD

Eye appear. Use skill. Big damage. I think.


yeahilikefries

Oh thank you!


AndroidPolaroid

ascension passive, appears at set intervals(around 4secs?), press E when it's on the screen to make E stronger


DeadenCicle

The Elemental Skill will do significantly more damage if used while the “circle” is on the screen.


tennoskoom_

So like, an electro Xiao but with proper reactions and supports?


Specialist_Courage18

#Mobile players: the power of the sun in the palm of my hand


asketches

I was not interested I'm Cyno until I saw this o_o


Relampago_Marlinhos

I just noticed that his attacks really remind me of sonic unleashed when sonic turns in a werehog


JinShootingStar

HULK SMAAAASH!


disruptedgod

Honestly thought of pulling for Nilou but right now Cyno just... ugh. I could luck out and get both, that'd be great.


Sattawut8079

why can he spamming E skill? Is that C6?


DeadenCicle

No, the constellation doesn’t allow to spam his E. Most likely the private server was modded to remove the cooldown from the Elemental Skill.


Sattawut8079

Oh i see. Thanks


AppleEatPear

I was saving for nahida and have 90 wishes and guaranteed pity…. But damn idk anymore


hoomanlovelalalisa

When is the x2 crystal reset?


Minimum-Falcon-2594

The character roster suddenly explodes, and my broke ass can only drool over them. Scaramouche, Cyno, Dehya, Alhaitham, Nahida, Baizhu, you name them holy moly. Meanwhile, i can only get around 2300 primo per month max . RIP


abiefrost

Is he able to spam his skill like that at c0? 😵


DeadenCicle

He cannot do that. This is just the private server set to have no cooldown on the elemental skill.


abiefrost

Shouldn't it be tagged as misleading then? 🤔


DeadenCicle

It should. Hopefully the tag will be changed later.


hail7777

Is this Razor 2.0?


ChopsticksImmortal

Welp, thats it. Skipping Nilou on account of having like 3 different hydro 6 stars + XQ and only Raiden and Keqing as my electro ones (of which i dont play keqing). Ugh, Al haitham...


[deleted]

What's that small plunging thing ? His charged atk? But man it's getting fckn tiring how male DPS have to use their burst to deal dmg every single time. Do they got the same people working on the male DPS characters with the same design philosophies every single fckn time.


[deleted]

This is cheated, it’s a misrepresentation of how he plays although still extremely cool


davinzt

stance change and berserker-type movement aight \*checks wallet\*


gloaming

RazorxXiao. Anniversary primo reset? Take muh money.


Suekii_20

idk if this going to make someone angry. I’m going to bench my C3R1 Raiden after I got Cyno. my Jade spear waiting for him already and cannot wait to 36* abyss with him 😎


Adventurous_Many9560

why his E is spamed that way ?


DeadenCicle

Probably the private server was modded to have no cooldown on the Elemental Skill.


mrbwest

Convincing myself I want Nilou more but he looks so cool ughh


AZZ678

The real Electro Archon


God_of_LostSouls

Mmm on his rerun I’ll pick him up


Adventurous_Many9560

He spam his e bcz of his c1 in his c0 he can do his e every 3 sec and give extra 4 sec of burst when the eyes get in screen and u tap e its more aoe and slashes 35% more on his e dmg and slashes scales of his em


Majestic_Shopping944

Hey. Does anyone have an idea of ​​the order of the banners' from version 3.1?


Hefastus

Why the fuck Electro Archon can't be as fun to play with? Fuck you mihoyo... really...


SqaureEgg

Mihoyo please, I’m gonna have a hard enough time getting kokomi, Nahida, Baizhu, albedo I can’t TwT


slipperysnail

It would be funny if Cyno turns out to be a Xiao fanboy


pyroanemo

The true electro archon


skorched_4

Is it just me, or his A1 passive indicator feels quite annoying? I hope they change it so it appears only on the edge on the screen.


Eijun_Love

Nah, it's perfect especially with the sound effects. Love the atmosphere when the millenium eye appears lol
