I'm having fun with these types of blogs.

Tell me a team composition that you love, but would have meta players raving, flaming, and crucifying you for.

For this blog, I define "meta" as the "most effective tactic available." In Genshin's case, ways to clear Abyss with 36 stars the fastest way possible and teams that cause the most damage. These teams are often repetitive across accounts, such as Raiden National (Raiden, Xingqiu, Bennet, and Xiangling) or Morgana (Ganyu, Mona, Diona, and Venti).

Much like my previous blog, I will not reply back to any comments. My purpose for this blog is to learn how others have fun with their Genshin teams.

This is a free/"safe" space to rant, but remain courteous and respectful in the comments section to others and me. Please. I will not tolerate anyone who wants to have an argument, be a snarky bitch, or give unsolicited "advice." I will block those involved.

Example, ofc, offered below the cut:

Old photo, Shinobu is now lvl 90. Anyway, my Kavetham team is the one I get the most backlash for. While it does have meta qualities, Xingqiu + Kuki + Dendro = Hyperbloom, the metaslaves cry so hard that I put the Kaveh and Alhaitham together.

"Kaveh and Alhaitham don't work together."

"They have no "synergy.""

"That's not enough dendro application."

"They're like lathering mayonnaise onto a CPU."

No. They're not "mayonnaise" and a "CPU" or water and oil. They are two Dendro units that provide dendro resonance, can be major powerhouses alone, but even more dangerous together.

I made it work.

Kaveh made it to Abyss floor 11, chamber 3. If they were all fully built, they would be MENACES. The best built is Kaveh at C2R5, Talents 6/7/9, artifacts lvl 20. Everyone else is still a WIP, low talent levels, artifacts lvl 0-5, and weapons lvl 20-80.

My rotation:

¹ Alhaitham's skill and burst (or just skill, if his burst isn't up)

² Xingqiu's skill or burst for hydro application

³ Kaveh's burst and skill to detonate the cores and apply more dendro

⚡️ Shinobu is there to be the responsible one(/hj, the healer) that makes sure the boys don't get killed and she applies quickening and hyperbloom. Kaveh is more or less self-sufficient with his passive and can keep himself alive.

Although Kaveh is my dendro main, I switch between Kaveh and Alhaitham as I see fit. To make it less meta, Xingqiu and Shinobu can actually be replaced with double hydro (ex. Mona and Barbara) or Hydro+Zhongli, because gods forbid Alhaitham takes damage from his own cores.

It works if you rotate it right, but no one wants to put in the extra work to figure it out. The meta creates a close-minded set of builds, and it's filled with people who just want those giant crit numbers. I don't deny the meta characters, teams, and builds do great damage, but the metaslaves so often claim their unwarranted "advice" is just "worry for the team's functionality," like "I asked if my Kaveh build was good, not if Kaveh and Alhaitham had "synergy."

Me with my team building & scheming shenanigans:

On a silly little note, I have decided to build DPS Noelle and QiQi, both characters that have been tossed aside by the meta. I'm so excited to build them.

I've asked this on Hoyolab a few times in BottleMi but the response was tepid. Only 3 brave souls decided to share their thoughts. I saw two teams of full DPS units and a Yoimiya main who said "any Yoimiya team" (they didn't elaborate further).

Yes, yes. I know. "Play the game however you want. 🙄 Why are you complaining? 😂" Oh, darling. It's ✨️cunt hours✨️ right now. And I'm sitting here with my wine ready to read. 💅🍷 📖 Rant to me, darlings, and I will listen.

#just ranting #Genshin Impact #Ayato Main #Kaveh main #hyperbloom #team comp #video games #on an extra note Dr Ratio's ENG voice sounds so CUNTY #so... I'm starting Honkai Star Rail...#DPS Noelle #卡维×艾尔海森 #Yes I ship them ♡#I ship them with myself #I dont hate the meta just the mindless followers

I feel like some people just dont register something if it happens to civillians/background characters. Like they dont register hawks refusal to let anyone die unless ALL other options are exausted cuz he saved civillans n not anyone named or memorable. By this logic they can also ignore league preferming mass murders cuz its mostly happening to civillians n a few bit heroes (but tbh i also think they think heroes deserve n more of them should die so idk)

like ye its easier to remember facts when important characters are involved but if u wanna write a meta or something then...check ur facts lmao at least make sure u hate the character for their actual qualities n not made up ones.

All this talk about hawks being a mass murderer or addicted to killing or abusive to civillians or whatever shit take is next really just seems to be projection of villains faults on hawks by fans to idk?? Make him seems as bad if not worse so they can justify wanting to murder him or whatever. Like if u dont like hawks cuz he killed twice thats completely fair, id def hate a chara if they killed my fav. But then just say that n dont invent a pile of reasons that can be debunked by one read through of a handful of chapters. Like mate yer reaching and you make yourself just look illiterate.

That’s a very good theory and highly possible considering I’ve seen people actually excuse mass murder of the civilians because “they don’t matter” (...yeah, it’s pretty messed up :/).

It’s one thing really hated that about a lot of meta on Hawks, how they always ignored the two very important scenes of him with the HPSC that literally showed us that one: Hawks is aware of their corruption and two: Hawks is not a blind follower who just does as they ask, he can find loopholes to their orders if it meant protecting the civilians (as that has always been his highest priority and the reason he took on the inflitration mission to begin with). But then they couldn’t use them because then it would show that Hawks wasn’t a mindless puppet of the state and that he can and regularly does think for himself (do you think him offering a hand to Twice was because the HPSC wanted him? God no, that was all Hawks).

Hopefully those dumb takes will die down now (if Jeanist is alive *and I really hope I haven’t jinxed anything T-T*). Hawks has never shown any behaviour like that in canon that would say he’s “addicted to killing” or that “he hates the people he’s trying to protect”.

Honestly, as you said, if people had just been honest about them not liking Hawks due to the fact that he killed a favourite, us Hawks stans would have been considerate because you know what, it sucks when a favourite dies. However they then had to do everything in their power to drag Hawks and the names of his fans through the mud. It was so annoying.

I can’t wait for these next few chapters, they’re sure to be a blast *as long as Hori isn’t trolling us*
