26:23 So just to caution, there's always a survivorship bias towards the newest unit when considering "usage rate" as a statistic. It is based on the percentage of users that deployed the unit, *if they own the unit.* So if players pulled the newest unit, they will probably want to use the newest unit no matter if the unit is good or bad, thus leading to a high usage rate by default because it is very unlikely that someone is going to bench the character they just pulled. So it's not a fair assessment to just look at usage rate on its own, every new unit is going to look like a must-pull based on that statistic, so make sure to also look at cycle count and team usage rates/cycle counts to judge whether a unit is good for your account or not.

That being said Acheron, Fu, and RM are still nuts either way so eh.

Kafka... Dot is the way brothers and sisters

[undeniablySomeGuy]

I'm surprised it took him until chat pinging him until he mentioned why Ratio has a low rate. 99.5% of players have Ratio, but most people won't use him since they have other units they're stanning

[sacrificialscapegoat]

Blade has honestly fallen off quite a bit, and no one talks about it. His survivability is exceptional, yes, but his damage is mediocre in today’s standards. When is he going to get the king yuan treatment and get his BiS support

[bkteer]

The saddest part of it all is that Yan Qing doesn't even appear on the list. CN literally don't like to use him to clear end game content.

7:58 Why did nobody tell me Aventurine has 40% imaginary resistance? Now it makes sense why my Imbibitor took seven cycles to clear him

[tucosalamanca]

It’s over Jing Yuan bros, he’s officially the king of mid 😭🙏

[araarashinigami]

My day one wives E6 Xueyi and E6 Yukong consistently with the fastest clears. ❤

[GentleIceZ]

Speaking as Herta's strongest soldier (apparently she was my most deployed character) I think I have a pretty good idea why she's got lower but still respectable numbers, as well as Himeko: those two are incredibly reliant on the enemies being weak to them. I've been using Herta since 1.0, and I've always believed in her potential, as she is a great pick not just against the deer but the sanctus medicus general and team leader elites. The problem is she severally drops off in usefulness when enemies aren't weak to ice. Same with Himeko, since she really wants to keep breaking enemies and that's where most of her damage comes from

[thatoneguy]

As one of the 3 Xueyi mains can confirm, my E0 Xueyi with Aventurine usually gets 2-3 cycles on the first side

[christianmago]

All this really say is that DHIL is still undoubtedly the second Best DPS in the game behind Acheron
And going pure DPS potential, he is still the fastest character to clear MOC

[Crazmuss]

As an Argenti enjoyer, I have a theory. Argenty was so out of nowhere and badly presented, so only dolphins have him, low spenders skipped. But dolphins would also have Acheron and Kafka/Swan team and Jinliu, so does not have a reason to bring Argenti.

[redfoxakame]

Kinda funny to me how I actually prefer my E0S0 Kafka over my E0S1 Acheron in 2nd half against Aventurine. I was struggling with my clears and maybe bc my Acheron build is still bad, that I gave up using her and ran my usual teams: DHIL - Sparkle first half, Kafka - BS 2nd half. I got it first try. XD

[Dimmy]

11:20 As a Xueyi main, my existence has finally been justified. (Even if it’s for a tiny bit.😢)

[Accountthatexists]

18:43 also u forgot to mention cocolia has a massive wind resistance

[utsubyo]

Not sure if this was mentioned later on but usage rates are extremely affected by bias
First thing is that the usage rates are calculated accounting for ownership which can push usage rate up or down depending on how easy to get characters are
Second thing is that some characters like yukong shine at specific breakpoints and people dont use them before that as much which means that generally people that use her have higher levels of investment than "average player"
Just throwing it out there in case it was not mentioned

[biscuitgenshin]

The thing with DHIL is that at e0 he clears as fast or as fast a e6s of other limited 5 stars. A fully whaled e6 bs/kafka actually doesnt clear MoC12 any faster than an e0 f2p DHIL team. Still a completely broken unit that is too much of an outlier.

[nirischakov]

him not realising SW and Pela rate up are due to acheron teams is *chef's kiss*

[VinceTheCreatorr]

If Blade has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Blade has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Blade has only one fan then that is me. If Blade has no fans, then that means I am no longer on Earth. If the world is against Blade, then I am against the world.

I love Blade until my last breath.

[rowanmales]

Blade - Jing Liu isn't going to be meta-defining speed, but I feel like the criticism is a bit harsh. It's unfortunate but Wind+Ice is an elemental weakness combination with a very low presence, which means one of them (typically Blade) is going to be mostly off element and this is pretty copium. It's just like Ratio - Topaz, except that Imaginary-Fire weakness has been added more of since Penacony and they have slightly better inherent synergy than Blade - Jingliu so they pop off more spectacularly.
