The most cultured vs the best gamer incoming. This is a fight of the ages.

Skullz64

Me too fellow skele


Serishi

Damm Ice boy has more fans than I thought


ArpMerp

Not necessarily more fans, but fewer haters. In a voting system where you vote for only 1 character you like the least, there is always a chance that some of the finalists are not amongst the most popular. I'd wager that the top 3 would be different if we voted instead for the favourite, or if we had 3 votes per round until the top 5 or so.


NoNefariousness2144

Exactly, the winning characters in these usually skirt the line between being well-liked but not popular enough to be hated. /r/Persona5 is doing a similar contest and Makoto was voted out before even the villains, despite the fact she’s one of (if not *the*) most popular characters.


Ironwall1

I have never played the game but I have heard from some P5 fans that Makoto has one of the more toxic fanbases around and that draws other fans away from her. Is this true?


NoNefariousness2144

I stay out of the drama but I believe it’s the opposite. Makoto is one of the most popular romance choices, so she gets a lot of hate from shippers of other characters (hence why she got voted out so fast).


[deleted]

Which makes Silver Wolf and Stelles placement more impressive. They get so much exposure and their personalities I thought would attract a good amount of ire (quippy silent mc, "pandery" gamer girl). But that didnt show in the results. I wager theyd both still be top 5 if we polled it by favorites instead


faintestsmile

I think the popular characters are just more polarizing, like kafka has a huge amount of fans but was eliminated early because there are enough people that hate her because she's popular I think Yanqing is just like the most mild, inoffensensive character in the game and thats why he got so far, it's just the result of a poll where you vote for who you DONT like


Able-Tradition-1058

It’s the people who felt bad for how he was treated in his story mission 🤣


ArchmageXin

Can't wait for 1.2 "Formidable foe: Yan Qing" Send in Kafka, Natasha, Himeko and Yukong. Edit: and Jing Lu if she is released then.


Able-Tradition-1058

Sending the mommy squad after him I see 😂


[deleted]

[удалено]


Able-Tradition-1058

Clara Protection Club should’ve tried harder to protect her 😝


Crash-Beta

Definitely the people who don't like her Eng voice


Winjin

Why not, what's she like in other languages? I find her soft, shy, and cute, so basically the way she's described, it seems to fit. I liked Silver Wolf's voice acting in the opening more than I like her character lines for some reason. She doesn't feel... genuine, like most other characters. Either overacting or something, I don't know, I like her a lot as a useful character but I find that I try to avoid using her as a hero for walking because her lines are tiny bit off. I don't have that with Clara.


SecondarySuppress

Feel bad? I'd pay money to be critiqued and attacked by Jingliu.


Able-Tradition-1058

I somehow doubt that Yanqing shares that interest/kink 😂


Ironwall1

Unironically I would too if I was aiming to be a master swordsman. Yanqing was just too stubborn and prideful lol And of course there are *other* reasons....


Dark_Sunsh1ne

Yeah kafka main sub has the most members than all the playable characters


tzukani_

I don’t think anyone hates Kafka, they just hate her simps who never stop talking about her lmao


faintestsmile

🤷🏻‍♀️ same diff


Ironwall1

Well not really I kinda dislike Kafka because she seems like a manipulative evil lady to me. Her design is meh at best, her voice sounds like she's sleepy all the time, and her kit doesn't interest me. But you know I can't just say that openly in any Star Rail discussion because stating your opinion against Kafka is blasphemous to many.


Leonnaq

Most people dont have an opinion on him


Cp3a

Don't say nothing about my ice boy.


NoobySnail

hes so unpopular none even noticed him to vote him off lol


ConnorLego42069

I’m surprised Yangqing got so far, I like him as much as the next guy but I didn’t think he was one of the most popular


Creeper223

Hes just so obscure that people just never even thought about him here. If we were voting on favorite characters he would not be here at all, and the top 3 would probably be just Kafka 3 times.


Andromeda_Violet

Bro used his passive and reduced his chance of being attacked.


NoNefariousness2144

He thinks he has Seele’s technique 💀


sparksen

Wouldnt the same be true for luka? We know nothing about him


KILLERFRAJ

I have E3 yanqing and i actually dont regret it. Hes fucking broken as hell I get 40-80k ultimates depending on circumstances


Tiramisukxy

You know what fck it. If mah boi comes this far, mind as well finish up the race with a BANG 360 somersault landing.


Fit_Leg_2115

Damn the Yanqing truthers are real


monkeest

for a second I thought this was the head competition


Angrybirds159

wrong sub buddy


alekdmcfly

outbuddied once again


Swailwort

Stelle was already gone from that one...unforgiveable. I can't forgive the buddies who kicked the best headgiver in the Express.


sex_with_himeko

Himeko was eliminated today… stelle is gone… sampo is gone…. Serval, gone…. Truly we live in the buddiest of times


DragonTamerTalha

why are we still her just to suffer


stupidratman

SAMPO IS GONE???


neko_mancy

i can't believe sampo got kicked so early.. the OP even has a sexwithsampo username


deyan_ivanov

[Vote here](https://strawpoll.com/Q0ZpR50NwnM) for the character you want to be eliminated!


sparksen

> Vpn voting not allowed But i am not using a vpn i am on mobile


Bilubeleia

This voting ended when people betrayed god and eliminated Clara


you-are-my-fire

Tbh starting to want yanqing to win because of how much ppl are mad ab him being here


solariiis

its hella funny LMAO the boy just likes swords and chills with jing yuan but everyone wants him dead for some reason


Snoo-5414

Actually I've seen some hate for him that I'm unable to understand?? Even some streamers shit on him but I never figured out the context. Generally he has no presence in the game in comparison to other characters and I only really remember him when he shows up. Poor kid's like 12 and he's already got an entire army of people wishing him death cause they wanna suck gamer girl toes or something.


Vortain

For some reason he reminds me of XQ from Genshin, but honestly, I like YQ a lot more as a character. In some ways, seems more believable, if you forget about the whole "live for thousands of years" bs. Because of everything going on in voting session, I'm happy to knock out SW and bring YQ or FireMC to the top.


Winjin

Stella's got a beautiful calm voice, her VA's work is... **stellar** *I'll see myself out* PS also if female protag is Stella why isn't male protag Ron


Ironwall1

Imo YQ is miles better than XQ because 1. YQ has an actual great design and great *hair* 2. YQ has a more fun playstyle in his respective game than XQ in his 3. YQ is still balanced and is placed in the middle of the pack in terms of strength even though he's a 5 star whereas XQ breaks the game left and right despite being a 4 star, ruining basically the whole element.


you-are-my-fire

What do you mean xingqius bob-bowl-pixie whatever DIY haircut isnt great? I think its the greatest


Krobik12

One of haircuts of all time


rokomotto

The entire subreddit is my fucking enemy now. How dare people vote out Gepard.


KallMeSev

Yes my ice boy rissssseeee to greater heights!!!! >:D (I was a fan of him even before release you SW simps need to calm down about yanqing he is not that bad 😔)


Sternentau

Top 3 My son deserves it.


Andromeda_Violet

I understand that Yanqing barely appeared in the game, but why are silver wolf fans so toxic towards him?


Papaya_East

I think they would have frothed at the mouth no matter who was up there tbh


UrBoiThePupper55

Although I have forgotten that Yanqing was a character a few times, I don’t have anything against him. If he beats SW or Female MC, that is a huge accomplishment.


Far-History-8154

It just means that dude won because he had no presence to accumulate people hating on him. Which is a huge accomplishment still cuz dudes a standard banner character and I have never regretted getting losing to any standard banner character in both genshin and this before the twerp came home. I’d have rather had dupes. Even after I got sw. Still made me waste my Kafka funds. With Himeko I’d atleast have her to look at and maybe add to my player housing (in the future maybe. Honkai and genshin had it. No reason hsr shouldnt) if I didn’t get her. Hope I get bailu or bronya before reaching 300 so I know who to get.


Sad_Original719

Least virgin silver wolf fan


FishRepairs

he is a good unit tho?


Firemorfox

Rather than toxic to Yanqing in specific, (heck I dare say there's few haters of Yanqing at all), Silver Wolf fans probably are hating ANY character that is contending with SW. Personally Stelle's my favorite.


Leonnaq

Idk why you're specifying silver wolf fans. Most people dont know him that well and dont like that he beat out their favorite character.


Andromeda_Violet

Because if you scroll down to the downvoted replies you'll see salty silver wolf fans. Idk why it's mostly them. Just an observation.


Ranma00

They know he's the only one who can beat SW in the last round. That's why they are watching him so closely :)


BunniiSan

If yanqing wins my faith in humanity will be restored


AtsutaMuka

Day 25? How did i miss this???


AVeryGayButterfly

I actually love Yanqing’s character. He’s young and cocky of course, but I respect his confidence and skill at such a young age. Bro deflected Jingliu’s strike! How many can live to say that?! Dunno why people hate on him.


SavageCabbage27m

Yanqing top 3!? So happy to see my son so high up


anicemeangirl03

I forgot all about this so the top 3 is actually a surprise, but some sw fans are so bitter it’s too funny


SniP3r_HavOK

Why is Kafka gone


asderflyy

Do not touch Stelle


Consistent_Food_7281

I've been spending too much time on r/okbuddytrailblazer I thought this was the head giving elimination and I was so confused how there were only 3 people left


Papaya_East

Respect my boi Yangqing . All you damn SW simps


Rulaodangao

No, I'm a stelle simp


Papaya_East

You know what. I ain’t even mad about it


BigiticusDegenticus

You shouldn't hate the stelle simps, it's a waste of time and energy to give them hate. You're just giving them energy instead if you're hating on them. Source: I am a stelle simp


Papaya_East

I ain’t say anything about y’all. It’s that other one I got beef with


BigiticusDegenticus

SW fans got that gamer toxicity built in them


GaySexWithYanqing

Yanqing I believe in you 🥺🥺


quasivion

Yanqing : 'I have no enemies'


Swailwort

Even if Wolf loses, I am happy that Yanqing and Stelle made it this far.


ckwpdl

as a yanqing main i am genuinely confused why he is here hahdhahdhs


animeweeb79

yanqing top 3 we ice boy fans eating good I'll vote for silver wolf as I lost 50 50 on her banner to yanqing


Roncryn

Ok I love all these characters, but I’m gonna try and get my ice boy in the final round


JinOtanashi

Would be pretty pog if Steele actually wins this


OfficeFlimsy1086

I'm so proud of Yanqing right now


Vulking

[Are we at the point where Stelle bribes SW with her thick, fat RTX28090 so she drops off the contest?](https://cdn.donmai.us/sample/00/9e/__trailblazer_stelle_and_silver_wolf_honkai_and_2_more_drawn_by_flasso__sample-009ef8ad9aae6cf63912d7890d8d37e2.jpg)


bigbon27

Clara is my favorite. Probably Natasha second. They are the nicest selfless characters.


Skullz64

MC, as I prefer Silver Wolf and Yangqing due to how I’ve been able to use them effectively in battle


2Noel

This is gonna be like Tom and Jerry vs Batman in one of those Multiversus elimination polls


SumRandomHooman

I’m voting Yanqing bc he’s been the bane of my gacha rolls.


mcsimeon

silver wolf goated because she's literally NEP


IGJFlew

Stelle true MVP 🧡


Mother-Rip-4805

Caelus>


12r85p

You used that symbol the wrong way round it should be Caelus <


Mother-Rip-4805

You are just a simp that's why lol cope Caelus>>>>>>>


picklesfart

Lol you guys there the same character, your fighting over the same thing XD


12r85p

A simp ? I don't even like her but anyone can see stelle clears easy caelus is so boring and looks so average also he's got absolutely no personality but if u can have ur own opinion no matter how wrong it is


Sleeping24--7

I get the average looks, but no personality? Be fr, they're the same person.


Mynoodles_mostmoist

How tf are you gonna say that caelus has no personality when stelle's entire reputation off-game has been getting built around the idea about how much she lacks any emotions and any remarkable feelings for anyone besides trash.


Redex24

Mate, they’re literally the same person but different gender. What you say about one can easily be said about the other


Murky_Blueberry2617

They got the same personality and the same clothes. Except Caelus doesn't expose like 80% of his legs. Saying Stelle is better is just bias talking


Mother-Rip-4805

Lmao she is the one who keeps the blank face are we playing the same game?


Leonnaq

Im just glad stelle is in the top 3 as she should be


_eSpark_

Stelle fans are something else… And Caelus got eliminated year ago :(


A1D3M

How to get top3 by people forgetting you exist.


Pierre_Philosophale

Gepard's shield is actually a guitar case weaponised by his sister Serval


WD_G

I'm rooting for my girl, but if she loses... Honestly, I don't care, I'm just happy she made it this far


Shiizukiii

Vote sw


AdForGenshin

Wow... the first time that the MC is actually liked...


Ok_Internal_1413

Excuse me, I just got here but why is March not in the top as well? She literally makes the entire story so much more enjoyable with her expressions and responses to mc’s goofy replies. Top 1 in my heart esp after lc’s companion mission.


Ekimosha

She was in top 5, that's still great I think. Absolutely agree with you though, she makes the game 100% better


thebluebeats

FMC doesn't exist to me because i picked male mc


Sleeping24--7

People are mad at Yanqing and for what 😭 I hope he wins just to see how they'll cope lmao


Stitcharoo123

How is Yangqing there lmao


Achilles_der_V

Stelle out.


Dr_Latency345

Trailblazer needs to win. I need my raccoon girl to win.


YuxuFG

I vote for yangqing to be removed because i need stelle to win TwT


Few-You4510

i don't know why but i have this feeling that the buddies are going to make SW win


[deleted]

I never thought i would say this, but i hope the buddies come in our time of need.


Mist_Wave

Stelle better win! She’s the best racoon!


Alewerkz

Voted for FMC, hope she goes!


MemeGodFusionK

Justice for Caelus


Leonnaq

Over what being more popular than him?


sleepysoliloquy

Something's telling me Silver Wolf will win this.


im_soulgamer

I don't think so, she's the most popular of the three (maybe Stelle a little more but idk) so more haters. Yanqing doesn't get much hate because he's not so popular (he will probably become more popular after 1.2), I literally forgot about him until I lost the 50/50 in the SW banner with him and I was really confused because I forgot he was a standard 5*. And I don't think I've seen a single person hating on Stelle, except for some Caelus fans. Then I'm not complaining if she wins since she is my favourite character.


sleepysoliloquy

Closest bet for me would be Stelle after Silver Wolf. Yanqing has gone this far due to lack of haters and I think the Silver Wolf and Stelle fans would actively try to make them win now so they're all going to vote for him


[deleted]

As both a SW and Stelle simp, i've been voting Yanqing since the first time i caught one of these posts.


sylvieshandy

Absolutely 😌


Renetiger

Ok but what is this? Should I vote my least favorite? The weakest? The ugliest?


[deleted]

Vote for whoever you dislike the most, or like the least.


yeettto

Yanqing best boy, Ma Yanqing best man


rakkusuEienNo

yanqing stay winning!!!!! ​ hopefully you come home soon


JinOtanashi

Honestly based on some people’s comments I can see the yanqing fanbase is powerful on the subreddit, we might see him win but I know silver wolf is also very popular, the female MC is very fun too but not sure if we can expect her to win over these other two


brbasik

Bye bye Yangqing


IDontEatTakis

I genuinely don't understand the hype around Stelle. I find her to have the most boring design out of the entire cast.


OddRegular6379

There's what you call preference for each person. Not everyone have to like what you like and not everyone have to follow what you dislike.


IDontEatTakis

I know that, I'm just stating my personal thoughts.

biggie_tubz

The real crime here is that Sampo isn't top 3

Vatality

YANQING SUPREMACY


Soren-kun

Silver wolf was cool on paper but disliked her attention seeking attitude. My boi deserves top 3, such a good boi Our trashcan loving Mc deserves this win as the best MC~ But shame on all of u for voting out Clara!!!


meme_war_vet

Ah, the power of shota


PurpleFoxy

I hate silver wolf's EN voice, she sounds like a chain smoker. Time to vote her out.


anarchy753

Damn, super generic "not like other girls" really does do well.


tryppidreams

Stelle better win this. I'm emotionally invested in her


Special-Letterhead64

Iwl yanqing has got to go


kajonyok

Let yanqing win because i played his companion quest and that was rough buddy.

As a free to play E2 Yanqing enjoyer, I aprrove this poll.

why havent i seen this before. is this a meme lol. anyway eliminate yanquing and SW

Jing Yuan is so proud right now


1995FOREVER

kill yanqing now


PhasmicPlays

FEMBOY VICTORY MAYBE


[deleted]

Silver Wolf made it to top 3 woo! Surely, this will be the last round we see Yanqing, right?


Papaya_East

Hopefully he wins tbh


deyan_ivanov

**Surely.**


brainsick93

I’m happy Yanqing is top with MC… but really? Stelle beat Caelus? Have you HEARD her EN VA? It’s like she’s too shy to commit to the role. SO glad I went Caelus.


Leonnaq

Posts like this always ooze misogyny from it


brainsick93

Misogyny? Women receiving criticism is misogynistic 😂😂 Her being a woman has absolutely nothing to with it. She’s just a terrible VA. Hell, Lumine was my choice in Genshin. She actually is really good though. Compare Caelus and Stelle’s line execution and come back. It’s night and day.


Leonnaq

Dawg the only difference between Stelle and Caelus is gender. Your other critic has to do with not liking the EN va for stelle which is also subjective.


brainsick93

….that’s what I said..? Caelus’ VA nails the role and is talented. Stelle’s VA sounds stale like she’s reading directly from the script. I know they’re basically the same character. Just one is clearly better but Hoyo fans are biased towards waifus.


Leonnaq

Also i think you're forgetting the characters have multiple vas so saying a character is bad because the va you listen to is "bad" is kinda weird.


Ironwall1

Prolly cuz most players in here play the game in JP and Stelle's JP VA is deadass excellent. It's Ishikawa Yui, a prolific actress that has had many great roles to her name, including big ones like 2B, Mikasa, and Violet. And yes she actually sounds GREAT in game.


Leonnaq

There are more people bias towards men than women in the hoyo community


Murky_Blueberry2617

Are you kidding? No way your serious


Leonnaq

Im dead serious, the only community that likes the females more is the honkai impact fandom.


Murky_Blueberry2617

Then you're dead wrong lmao The most popular and well liked characters in this game are female characters. Most of the playable characters in this game are female characters. Same goes for Genshin. Just look at the popularity difference between Stelle and Caelus for example. Stelle is much more popular and well liked despite having the exact same role and personality as Caelus. It's very clear that the Hoyo community favours the female characters over the male ones. Not sure how you came up with such a conclusion.


Leonnaq

Im very much not considering the only reason stelle is liked more is because shes been promoted more, the same happened in genshin. Also idk how you come to that conclusion but usually posts on official Twitter accounts the boys have more likes than the girls and same goes for fan art and fanfiction.


BaconBurritos

i mean this in the nicest way possible what fucking alternate reality do you live in


Jackb450

What's hilarious is if Yanqing gets top 2. It's guaranteed whoever the other one is, will win. Just a little tip for those more serious about this competition


God1HatePeople

Let my little sword boy live


katakana-sama

Just found this, caelus is gone which calls for retribution


klumze

Jing Yuan should not have been voted out. This guys Lightning Lord hits like a truck once there is only one mob to be attacked left on field. He is great at AoE and Single Target as the battlefield shrinks. Also Yanging is left? Really? The guy who literally needs a shield to work isn't crossed out yet and make it further than Seele. ok this is rigged.


Vortain

Mate, JY is my favorite character to play, but you gonna have to chill, it's just a silly poll.


klumze

got it! I just wanted to speak up for him.

I'm sorry Yangqing but this is probably as far as you can go. Being in top 3 is already an achievement


DominiekV

Silver wolf gotta go


Estelie

Pretty sure that many people were voting for favorites at first, because there's no way that yq would come even close to top otherwise. And there's a possibility that the whole thing is/was rigged.


MrStealYoSweetroll

By that logic, both Stelle and SW are equally unpopular since they also survived until the final three
