Full Stop Chan's hxg_diluc channel posted information about the release order, rarity, and squad roles of future heroes. Much of this information has already been published by other insiders. Genshin Impact, but there are also some new details. According to the leak, Mitya could be a five-star character, and Valery will be his four-star support.
Combine this rumor with information from Uncle LoveHappy, and the following will be released in the next patches:
- 7.1 — 5⭐ Anemo-dd Spring and 5⭐ Hydro-support VodyanitsaSpring fights in the air and can control her altitude and direction. She uses charged attacks and diving strikes.
- 7.2 — 5⭐ Main-dd Mitya and his support 4⭐ Valery (both Electro). Valery will be a support on the field under Star Guide, and Mitya deals damage from the rear (it is unknown whether this refers to long-range attacks or strikes from the “pocket”).
- 7.3 — 5⭐ Queen Anastasia (Cryo) and 5⭐ Danika (Electro), who will be part of the premium team Sandrone's "Puppets" with ballerina Odette.
MewsTews also shared a translation of another message from Uncle LoveHappy: Update 7.1 will feature a favorable environment that will bring benefits. Lunar crystallization (there is no plan to enhance this reaction).
UPDInsider Uncle Cock expressed doubt about this character distribution. He believes Mitya and Valery will be released in 7.1 for the anniversary, Vodyanitsa in 7.2, and Vesna will become playable alongside her or later.
It's hard to believe. There are too many Electro heroes, given that the new reactions are tied to Cryo—how many characters will be playing with the new Superconductor? There's only one Vesna for Stellar Dispersion; Alyosha is Electro, if Valera, Mitya, and Danika are also Electro, then only Odette and Tsaritsa are left for Cryo and as universal supports for all Star heroes. Vesna is left without a support, and the new Cooler can be forgotten entirely, or it will be just Noah again without a support. Meanwhile, five niche newcomers, including Sandrone, will be playing with Superconductor. It sounds incredibly strange.
And cramming Valera into 4 also seems like a dubious move, especially against the backdrop of the trailer, where they piled on a bit too much pathos for him to be in 4.
According to theory, Valery is a 5* standard seiyuu because he's a Cheetah.
According to Gepard's theory, Valery is a 5-star shielder who neither Sandrone nor Risley would refuse. They even lost his tower shield. :)
Well, we have the same Tanaka Rie who voices the 4* starting standard Lisa in Genshin and the standard 5* + event 5* Himeko in Railgun, so it all sounds a bit murky.
Danika is an anemo
I'm also inclined to think so, which is why the leak about the electric Danica seems too strange here.
Still, it seems to me that the packs will be something like this
Dispersion Spring - Odetta/Nastya - Danika (anemo4*) - cryo 5*
Conductor Electro 5* - Odetta/Nastya-Leha-krio 5*/Yae miko.
That is, from Valera and Mitya, 1 will be cryo from the pocket, and the second electro main dd.
The only question is who?
Valera has an electro color scheme, but in the trailer his bear had a cryo aura.
But Mitya's color scheme is also electro, but with cryo elements.
Noah looks like a pyro, but with an electro twist.
And Vodyanitsa is definitely a hydro support, and we know that there will be some improvement to the Moon Crystal, specifically in terms of convenience, so perhaps she will be able to replace the Aino C6 with Columbine.
And Sandrone will act as a main DD replacement in any pack, since she plays both from the conductor and from dispel.
Danika will most likely be anemo, since anemo is simply mandatory for dispel, and she will be 4*, since no one else is more suitable in appearance, and the second “early” 4* is a must.
Or am I wrong and Danika will be 5*, then Valera will become 4*, since their design is 4*
What kind of tutu do you think the queen will be wearing?
In any case, I think she'll share a slot with Odetta. But I'd rather be wrong and she'll be a DD.
After KokoOka's video about plums, I'm extremely skeptical about the elemental attributes and rarities of each character. While the rarity of new characters can be used to infer which voice actors voiced characters from other gacha games (like ZZZ, HSR, and FGO), albeit imprecisely, elemental attributes are more complicated. Almost all characters from Snow (except Tartaglia and Vesna) have their God's Eyes and their variations located behind them (mostly on their backs), like Odette and Vodyanitsa. Therefore, their elemental attributes are currently unknown.
I don't think the Queen will be a support. Firstly, there's already a universal cryo support for stellar reactions. Secondly, the Queen is clearly being cast like Mavuika, as an Archon who will be constantly fighting. In 3, and most importantly, the release of the Water Maiden. According to early rumors, she buffed not only cryo and hydro, but also her reaction is broken. And here I think the Queen will be the damage dealer for this reaction. Moreover, she's cursed (everything she touches turns to ice). And by the time she's released, according to the storyline, we'll clearly either help her or free her from the curse altogether. And there will be such symbolism as the freed Queen breaking enemies from the shackles of ice.
She won't be a DD, don't talk nonsense. That would completely devalue Sandrone as a main DD.
So, following this logic, the developers "devalued" all Natlan damage dealers when they released Mawa. I think a damage dealer queen is perfectly feasible, or it will be something like Durin, given the support and damage stances. The only thing I don't understand is why Vodyana is being added to the Horse deck; all her slots are heavily tied there. It would be much more logical to make her a slot for Fleance and Nefer, whose fourth slot remains under Sucrose. They could make a passive like that of Durin, like when Freeze or Vape activates, Vodyana gets a bonus. When another Hydro reacts, it's some kind of resistance reduction or just buffs for the squad.
Now they're saying that Vodyana cuts resistances for Anemo and that she's supposedly for Stellar Dispersion, but then it's unclear why she's Hydro. And I don't understand the takedown of Sandrone. If Tsarina is going to play with a broken reaction, then what does Sandrone have to do with it? Well, following the logic, Sandrone devalued Loen as soon as she came out. And the conclusion is that Tsarina might be a support DD for Stellar Reactions, but we've already been told for sure that there will only be two. There were three in Nod Edge, plus there were also Teams from the Sabbath. Making such a character a support character for only two teams sounds crazy. And let's not forget that a universal support DD buffer for Stellar Reactions will be released in the first patch. Why bother with Odeta if Tsarina will do everything the same?
Mava was a different story, though—she's the only pyro character in all of Natlan. Sandrone, meanwhile, is already a cryo damage dealer for the starlings, and a cryo Queen damage dealer would really devalue her as a combat unit, because as an Archon, she'd definitely be stronger and trigger star reactions and be more destructive. So what good would Sandrone be then?
And who mentioned the Star Queen? I was just emphasizing the reaction of the Ravn, which, according to rumors, will be buffed by the Water Queen. And then it makes sense that she's a Hydro Persian. If the Queen plays with a completely different reaction and on a different team, Sandron won't devalue it. But the situation will be the opposite of Mavuika, when she essentially shouted down all the Natlan DDs.
Well, I was actually responding to another commenter. But yes, the Queen, even through a sundered unit, really won't hinder Sandrona in any way. The other thing is that, until now, all Archons and their regional counterparts have been the most versatile units among their "people," easily slid into any local or other pack, and a niche Queen with a single reaction doesn't sound very plausible against this backdrop.
Well, I wouldn't say Raiden was particularly versatile, as she wasn't really played anywhere other than in the national team. And while Mavuika could be a support damage dealer, she was mostly used as the main damage dealer in Melt. She does have Overload and Vape, but compared to Melt, these packs deal significantly less damage. Mavuika is less versatile in other teams, unlike, say, Harlequin, who deals equal damage with both Melt and Overload. The rest of the Archons are either supports or support damage dealers. For me, the main problem with the idea that Queen will be the main damage dealer is the slime theory, which has been fully confirmed so far. Cryo Slime creates a shield, and if Queen does the same, then that's not a main damage dealer.
>compared to melt, these packs did significantly less damage.
Well, it's not about all teams being equal in damage output, but about diversification. Sure, Mava's Melt damage is worse than any other team, but she can easily be squeezed into the sub-DD slot alongside any Natlan damage dealer, and not just her. Raiden, for example, is a versatile, all-range electro-applicator who can easily fit alongside Stars if needed. So, if you get an Archon, you've got a good fourth slot for a fair number of packs. And the Queen, locked into a single reaction, doesn't fit in here.
Well, I seriously doubt anyone who gets Venti or Grandfather will be overly excited about such a fourth slot. Grandfather is only about shields and a meager amount of resistance, and Venti used to be about chaining, but now it's basically a damage dealer that no one plays. Talking about Raiden at any range sounds frankly strange. Without S2R1, her maximum is 80k in National or 100k in some Lunar carriage, where any character will be more useful. She only gets added to Sandrona if she doesn't have a chip, like Yae Miko, Beidou, or Kuki. Nahida and Furina are more or less relevant slots, but one only plays in Actual with Nefer, and the other only in older squads, and it's unlikely she'll be useful in Star squads, since they, like Lunar squads, don't care about the elemental bonus. Mava agrees, the case is interesting and unique. The only Archon on C0 who can be both a field damage dealer and a support damage dealer in the pocket, and I think they'll do something similar with the Queen. She'll be able to field damage, and if she's in the pocket, she'll provide a shield and status, similar to something like Noah.
Great, we can skip everything until Tsaritsa and Danika 😀
If there's some kind of favorable environment in 7.1, then Lineika and Loshadka are reruns. I can't believe Mitya is a 5* and Valery is a 4*. It seems dubious for now.
It's no wonder Valery looked like an NPC if he's 4*
