In this guide video, we will feature some gameplay, but predominantly focus on how to actually play her. We'll talk about her mechanics, stance switching, combos, how she works with Burnice, but really, I just wanna show you guys the most important parts of Yanagi.

honestly Yanagi's kit is a bit overwhelming to read and this vid is really helpful, very concise and informative

its rare when CC's actually understand the mechanics of the game instead of just theory crafting on paper. Subscribed

"You dont spend enough time in Burnice" - truer words have never been spoken.

[KahlevN]

You want to mention that you never want to run same element Supports with AM on Disk 6 when teamed with AP focused DoT (Burn/Elec/Ether) character. You can run Seth and Rina with AP on 4, but never run them with AM when with Grace/Yanagi, but you can do it with say Anton. AM increases their weight in the final disorder hit, and pollutes Yanagi's damage. Same goes with Lucy with Burnice. It's different than ZY with Nicole or Lucy with S11, where you can run them with AM to increase uptime on their element-specific disk drives, as ZY and S11 aren't AP focused characters that you really worry about diluting their anomaly. It's also fine with Jane or Piper or any Ice based Anomaly, because they can just re-proc their anomaly again and don't lose too much from dilution because they aren't DoT Anomalies that prevent back-to-back procs.

Basically whoever has the highest AP on the team in mono-element DoT Anomaly teams, should also be the only AM Disk 6 user.


Similarly, you don't really want Freedom Blues in non-disorder mono-element DoT anomaly teams, as it will again allow the supports to have more chances to pollute the final anomaly by bringing everyone's application rates closer together. You want to gimp your same-element supports Anomaly application as much as possible, to avoid that.

Easily the best guide i have seen on yanagi. You explain it in a really nice and smooth way and clarified all my questions.

[XenogearsPS]

Wow, that was the best guide I have seen so far. I’ve been looking at all of them since I love her. Subscribed.

[peterphanuwat]

Thanks for detailed explanation!
IMO, her kits seem complex at first, but it's quite easy and simple to play once you understand how she works.
Unlike some characters that require things like perfect timing, that would be very hard to play regardless of how simple the kits are.

[samthecaribbean]

she is my favorite character to play. stance switching parry is so satisfying

[kyo-wmwb]

This is an absolutely amazing video, thank you so so much. I'm a new player who started playing for yanagi, and its been really overwhelming trying to understand her while learning the game mechanics at the same time. Every other guide ive watched told me how she works and a general idea of what to do, but no one's clearly described how to actually play her and also how to play her in an actual team with other characters 😂 This was the exact thing I needed man, best guide I've ever seen 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️

[ulcifer]

I have to say this is the best yanagi guide out there right now

[Nikorasu]

You did an amazing job explaining her in detail, I love Nagi, so I’m subbing!

[Aktzin]

Thank you for mentioning quick-swap. If you play it right, it’s easily the most dynamic and fun way to play the game. I actually wanna talk about my history with it because I think it’s the future of this game’s combat.

On release, my first team was Piper/Nekomata/Lucy. I consider it the first “quick-swap” team in the game, and it’s what really opened me up to enjoying the combat as a whole. It was so much fun, I honestly couldn’t figure out why so few people seemed to be running it. Sure, Nekomata was never really “top-tier, ” but the way the team synergized when alternating between all three felt so much better than the hypercarry and stun/DPS playstyles I kept seeing.

Along comes Caesar, and I decide to replace Nekomata. I continued to play the team with a quickswap mentality, focusing on Piper’s damage but not being afraid to switch between Caesar and Lucy to maintain all the buffs. The result was a team that felt busted while being consistently fun to play!

Now I have Yanagi, and, despite not having Burnice, the quick-swap playstyle still works perfectly fine with Piper and Lucy! Looking forward, I believe that buffs which encourage agents to quick-swap will be invaluable, as it would add an extra layer to team compositions and encourage more interesting playstyles!

You have a great skill when it comes to explaining and teaching about the content, i'm glad i found your channel. Thank you for the great video.

[JJ]

Please keep making vids like this. You are by FAR the best cc when it comes to explaining how to use character kits 👍🏽

[acex]

Excellent video! Best guide I've seen. Most if not all guides only talk about w-engines, teams, etc. But actual character piloting guides are such an untapped market and I think you got it. Looking forward to seeing more!!

[Lazuli]

This was incredibly helpful! I was lucky enough to get Yanagi, but felt a bit lost seeing all the skills. You did a great job explaining and I'm looking forward to more quality content like this to help out!

[lucaria]

she kinda reminds me of Lycaon, if you switch her stand just enough, you forget she even has physical attacks
I'm so used to lycaon move set and his charged attack that I get surprised when my fingers slip and he deals physical damage

[MikEsperame]

Yanagi's M1 is actually really good. It lets you ignore damage up to 3 times if you can proc anomaly consistently which she does easily. Especially useful if you're trying to reach higher floors in the battle tower. Caesar's shield gets wiped off in 1 hit around floor 50+ its where Yanagi's m1 really shines.

[chrisakalogic]

She is soooo much fun! Yanagi is not difficult to play, just complex like Lace said. Has many layers to her kit. Once you get how she works, she’s a blast to play.

[charlieist]

Just want to say you’re the best at explaining kit, how they should be played. I always look forward to your simple but meaty guides. Keep it up and thank you.
