"You get a massive shield with Zhongli" *shows a clip where Zhongli's shield immediately gets broken* peak Genshin gameplay

lyney has got to be one of the best beginner characters you can literally get everything for his best team just by playing the game (ESPECIALLY this patch with the free bennett from the event)

As someone that likes Ganyu gameplay, I don't understand why they didn't make his charged shot faster. It's such a fun thing about Tighnaris kit.

Dehya with thie guy has genuinely been really useful. Using her burst on his downtime feels pretty nice too!

For those fortunate, C4 Tankfei is viable shield

i already have ganyu and tighnari built but you bet your ass my bow obsession will make me pull for him

One of the biggest problems is how Lyney doesn't really have access to a good Pyro shield

6:47 It's worth mentioning that, if you decide to use Zhongli with Lyney, then Archaic Petra is incredibly good on him. With 2-3 Pyro characters in the team, you can reliably grab the Pyro shards and get the 35% DMG Bonus for all your Pyro party members. This + Zhongli's fat shield and Res shred makes him my favorite supporting option by a landslide.

Dehya's resistance to interruption is an "infinite armor", it's just that it runs out earlier than her skill duration, that's why sometimes you get slapped on.

I did his trial and wtf he did 20-30k per charged without benny. Also unique gameplay I'm so here for it!

I’m probably gonna pull for him, I love his design, I kinda like his personality, and he solves the one issue I have with melt ganyu which is that I want to press my other buttons

Thanks for the take, especially on the bow comparisons for the three. I also enjoy the CA bow characters because manually attacking is more engaging for me than auto

idk but Lyney just feels too powerful for me. I probably only say that because I don't own characters like Raiden, Hu Tao, Ayaka or Ganyu. He's my 1st unit who can stand on his own and do massive damage without support. Currently running him with Kazuha, Xiangling and Bennett and seeing those random 100k s pop up from nowhere just feels very satisfying

tankfei is quite a reliable option too, and she can hold thrilling tales - in case you want to bring Kazuha or other anemo char for vv shred, but don't want to lose the 3 pyro buff. The only downside is that you need her c4. Thoma is kinda eh bc you need to do normal attack to refresh his shield.

You can use Baizhu as your healer/ interruption to resistance giver so your other two pyro units can be more flexible especially when your bennet wants to vacation on another team. You also have the benefit of being able to move around more instead of standing in one spot with a bull's eye on your magic hat.

2:48 the way I read DMG as OMG😭

Just wanted to say I've watched a lot of guide makers and yours really have a unique feel to them. I cant wait to watch more of your content and thank you!

I've been playing Lyney in a burgeon team with Baizhu, Nahida and yelan and he's quite a fun play :)

Just wanted to say, you are by far my favourite Genshin-tuber. The way you approach these videos is really interesting, unique and I always look forward to the next one! Thanks and cheers from Canada! 🇨🇦

I'd say that Lyney's bow is very close if not basically the same to Aqua Simulacra on Tighnari if you run him on triple dendro (Tighnari, Nahida, Baizhu/Yaoyao/Kiara, and any electro unit with good application), as Tighnari benefits a lot from all that attack.

personally, lyneys gameplay is really fun and unique, by unique I mean how every attack he does matches with how he’s a magician and stuff, he’s also my most used character rn and he’s also really good.

I'd saved for him and his weapon due to just liking his character, and I'm pleasantly surprised by how powerful he is. He can nuke, he can taunt, he can heal (himself), and you don't have to set up complicated reactions to see him do big damage. I hope we get a new pyro sheilder or something so there's better options for his team

A pyro character is honestly worth rolling for (for me personally) if 1. One or more of their attacks is an explosion 2. Enemies go BOOM I rolled for klee and have no regrets and I want to roll for lyney now

I pulled for lyney and got c1 jean at 76 pity💀 at least now I have a guarantee for focalors

First video I’ve seen from you and I can say this one video makes me excited to watch your other content keep up the good work

lyney is actually everything i wanted as a character because my favorite thing in this game always was the charged bow attack gameplay, but i don’t really enjoy ganyu for other reasons and loved him for his design and personality… and the gameplay also was perfect! couldn’t be more happy than that! also i literally always enjoyed playing with amber and for me getting a mixture of ganyu with amber is everything i could’ve asked for

he summons a cat.... that's automatically a win for me

Damn, the edit is so smooth. I love it

You neglected to mention how, with Zhongli you can choose to run him on Archaic Petra instead of the usual Tenacity of the Millelith, as on a Mono Pyro team you will actually be generating only Pyro Crystallize Shards, thus being able to get decent value from that set

DUDE noticing the raccoon running along side the videos progress bar made me click around to see how accurate it was lmfao idk why thats so cool to me. Solid video but I wouldve liked just for that tiny thing XD

oh that was a sick edit where the crystal ball changes to ganyu ult at the start of the video

I think with Deyha and Concussive Ovation passive, you can play a high Phys multiplier Lyney.

I got a Genshin impact ad of Lyney just running around and I thought that was the video

I don't know about Lyney, but you can shoot Ganyu's charged attack before the animation is complete, when u see the second circle closing up u can already shoot (and yes, it will be the full charge). I recommend training that to maximize her DPS if you main her

6:24 stove god makes his appearance

I feel like Lyney will be an Investment character. Invest now and see some good rewards but wait till Natlan and more Pyro characters and hopefully he’ll be even better then.

I’m planning on running Lyeny with Bennett, Thoma, and Lynette, and it seems like it’s gonna be a lot of fun

I personally like tighnari since him doing his damage real fast makes farming bosses quick and easy, lyney felt like he is in between ganyu and tighnari in terms of how fast he does damage and the fact that i dont really have to think about elemental reactions was nice. Id probably roll for him in his rerun but for now, i rolled for constellations for yelan(currently c1) since i want to get her to c6 eventually

In my opinion, Lyney is so much better playstyle wise when compared to Ganyu. I find her kit the most boring playstyle in Genshin. What I love about Lyney and Tighnari compared to her is the fact her kit is too plain and simple while Tighnari's fast on field gameplay and Lyney's stacking anf burst make it so much fun to play them compared to Ganyu

Thank you for this video. I see other youtubers talking about artefacts and talents, and while its useful, i was much more interested in him playstyle and "how it feels to play him".

in terms of the team issue, i dont find it much of a problem as you think. i just use lyney and bennett, leaving 2 slots for anyone i want, and his damage is still INSANE. like, he did 250k in the span of 3 seconds using his skill and burst.

i love the small racoon at bottom of video

Haven't been utilising Zhonli in "harder" content since dendro altered the playing field (mostly been running two dendro teams). Since I lacked a good pyro dps, I pulled for him. After some pain in the new artifact domain, I got him into a working state and love his team. I run Bennet, Zhonli and Kazuha with him and the team kicks butt. It's become my go-to other team, allowing me to spam my Nahida/Raiden/Yelan/Bailu team on whichever side of the abyss. Oh, I also ran him with Zhongli, Raiden and Kokomi in the Wanderer weekly boss domain and that was loads of fun 👍🏻

I was so excited when I saw my five star and now my wanderer is happy with his new dehya

I'm really just cycling through maining charged shot based archers... Ganyu was my first 5-star and my first main, Tighnari caught my attention with his fun quick swap style, and now Lyney with his impressive mono-pyro damage and flashy animations! Archers really out here proving they're still my favorites.

It's funny that 'just another Ganyu' could be seen as a reason not to pull... when that was actually one of the reasons I decided to pull for him. Not because I don't have Ganyu (I do) or enjoy her playstyle (I admit I benched her for Ayaka) but... because I don't enjoy Hu Tao and my only other pyro dps option besides her on my account is Diluc. I was so desperate for a new good pyro dps for when pyro is required (specially in Abyss) that hearing he was kinda like Ganyu was a selling point!

ive been trying him on diff domains and in the abyss,, ive realized that his taunt is most times enough to get away with no shield, ive been prioritizing dps by going lyney, xiangling, benny and kazuha and its pretty easy to kill everything without getting interrupted :b

i love the racoon progress bar

Genshin’s powerpuff girls

I'm pulling for the weapon banner and not Lyney, which is a surprise, but it's mostly because I need bows for Ganyu, Tighnari and Fischl, I can probably make do with other bows but having Crit weapons is always nice. Oh, and as for using First Magic on Ganyu that's essentially the perfect bow for me as I use Ganyu Melt with Shenhe, it may not seem efficient but I like it, plus I get to use Shenhe with the flexibility of double bursting with both my cryo's while my Pyro is getting particles.

I guess its time to build thoma Im using lyney, lynette, bennett and koko rn but thats jus for my exploring rn since i need ousia and a skill healer (also because koko looks amazing underwater) but ive had a hard time to actually build him a team, i dont have zhongli, i dont have tankfei, thoma is underbuilt, and i guess theres xiangling Sadly his bow as much as i want it because WOW THAT BANNER IS GLORIOUS im saving for neuvillette :((

I got Lyney and then got yelan back to back. I almost cried cause I’m free to play and never had that happen before. He is awesome even though I just got him.

In theory, a good team for Kyney could be: Lyney Bennett Xiangling Kokomi/barbara (or Qiqi) he would still vape or Melt sometimes

I love the Charge Shot characters so much

I’m betting on some sort of pyro healer that’s elemental skill reliant instead of burst reliant so we can proc his talent and signature weapon while being able to get at least 4 stacks (healer based off candles when Hoyoverse???)

I'm only going to do the Fontaine Story once I get Lyney

In 60 pulls i got lyney, his weapon and aqua, havent felt luckier

I'm giving this a like just because of that little racoon at the bottom of the screen... adorable ❤

Serious question! My phone doesn't have enough storage 😢 If I want to transfer my mobile account to ps5, do I have to create a new ps account or can I use an existing one? And can I use my gmail to log in genshin?

i was pulling for yelan, i got jean, i had 1 more extra pull so i did it on lyney's banner, i got lyney. i wanted to get aqua simulacra, i got lyney's weapon. i swear mihoyo just gives if you dont even want it in the first place

Tighnari's AOE is in his ultimate - if there's multiple enemies he'll hit multiple enemies. Just with single attacks withing the ult.

I’m thinking bout using the 3 star messenger bow just bc it matches his outfit so well even tho I have all the 5 star bows 😢

Actually if dehya reduced lyney's HP consumption she could potentially nerf his damage. If he doesn't go low enough for Bennett to heal him, it'll mess with his set's buff uptime

I'm just going for that massive cat in his burst

I’ve noticed that in morgana actually the first great magic is better than Amos now even with 2 cryo which is amazing!:D

number 1 lyney fan approves commenting on every lyney related video i find - vid 195

I don’t really think he needs a shield because of the Pneuma mechanic that will allow him to disable most boss Mechanics. So he is gonna be safe, only for Fontaine update probably.

the first time i use lyney, it feels a bit weird due to his quite complex mechanic. but after several trials im starting to get used to it and event tempted to pull! he's pretty much fun to play and yet a very reliable damage dealer but im saving for wriostheley for now, let's hope for lyney's rerun

Im waiting for Furina, but the temptation is really high

Thats why Im using my Tankfei! Best decision ever made to wish for Yanfei few years ago lol

i have been waiting for a male ganyu!! lyney is so fun

I gotta wonder what the math is on Lyney Bennett Kazuha Zhongli is above having Xiangling and Zhongli, you get VV and the dmg bonus that way

A huge misconception is that you cant use ganyu's burst in her melt team which is not always true. I aoe situations its better to use her burst, yes the damage of her charged attacks may be less but overall damage of the team will increase as xiangling would be able to melt most of her hits and the ganyus burst itself does quite a bit odmf damage in such cases.

Imagine a co-op will players only using different charge shot bow characters

Accidentally got Lyneys weapon, but I’m using it on tighnari, so it’s put to good use

How does a mono pyro team deal with enemy shields? Just blunt force, claymore etc? Sounds slow for Abyss?

The new arsonist of tevyat

would lyney also be good with baizhu in a burning team? I’m thinking shields and reactions 👀

I'm very curious how this character will do paired with my current kuki main and chongyun that I use to get more element reaction and to make kuki still good when electric isn't effective but still be a godly healer but I want a decent fire option on the side. What do you think, he seems very interesting and the healing will go great with him I think but would I be better with yoimiya and I would have to wait for her when I could get him now so I really want to know

Does anyone know what song is in the background i would really like to add it to my playlist

8:40 I've actually run some tests with my Ganyu and, surprisingly, Lynney's Bow (The First Great Magic) beat out my Amos Bow in almost every scenario. (The only scenario where Amos did more Dmg, and not by much, was with No Reaction, and no Buffs, Simply Charged Shot Bloom.) Otherwise, whether it be Freeze or Melt, with Buffs, FGMagic came out on top. The different Buffers I have tried with Ganyu were Kazuha, Benny, Shenhe, Mona. I think the main reasons why this new bow does so well compared to Amos are: *1)* In Freeze, Ganyu doesn't worry about Charged Shots much, so the High Atk+CritDmg from FGMagic is more useful; *2)* In Melt Teams centered around Ganyu's Charged Shots, Ganyu already has a lot of Charge Atk Dmg with sets like Wanderer's Troupe and Shimenawa. This can make the extra Charge Atk Dmg from Amos a little redundant and can have diminishing returns. While FGMagic, on the other hand, has everything. Same Base Atk, ChargeAtkDmg%, 66%CritDmg, 32%AtkBonus (if using Ganyu + another Cryo). *3)* Finally, in teams with Shenhe, it's Obvious that the Quills can deal exponentially more Dmg with a CritDmg% Bow compared to Amos since the Quills are a Flat Increase and can Crit. I've also played around with Artifacts / stats / weapons using Genshin Optimizer. I have a very good Shimenawa Set, Wanderer's Troupe Set, AND Blizzard Set. Overall, for my account at least, the FGMagic almost always came out on top. When Amos was stronger, the difference was a lot smaller when compared to when FGMagic was stronger. Basically, when FGMacig was stronger, it was stronger by higher margins compared to Amos. So far, the only tests I have done were Freeze and Melt with 2 Cryo units on the team. If I try Mono-Cryo with 3 cryo units, the Bonus Atk% Stacks from FGMagic will be even higher so Amos can't compete lol. I understand everybody is going to have different artifact pieces and stats, so results may vary. Still, I felt a bit sad when I found out about this since I had been using Ganyu for a while, and it took me a long time to get my first Amos. I knew Lyney's Bow was good, but I wasn't expecting it to beat Amos on my Ganyu lol.

well,a new bow user I'm gonna pull for soul

Large atk cant knock you back when you have dehya's interruption RES, just like Raiden's burst or any shield. But dehya's interruption RES has a 9s uptime so it will end before the skill ends. Thats why you get knocked back while the skill is active

If I dont get him this run I will wait for his rerun

Farming the new set may take all version....but at least Emblem is in the Strongbox, so it wont kill me too much

0:08 Sara crying in the corner

i might pick him up on his rerun if bc he is a sillyguy but fr im saving for childe and also albedo whenever he decides to come back lmao

I’ll just be happy seeing the meta shift from Cryo and Dendro for a little bit

posted one minute ago?? damn

There are ways to keep tighnari on the field and it's super fun

had about 200 wishes saved and spent them all on lyney and his weapon lol. first time pulling on the weapon banner, and it was mostly an aesthetic choice! the thought of ganyus playstyle had never appealed to me but from the tiny taste I got from lyneys trial, I at least don't think I'll be _frustrated_ by it lol. I've been itching for another character/team to main that ISN'T anemo damage focused but I'm weirdly picky about which characters I'll actually build. luckily, lyney scratches that itch AND the characters I'll be using with him are already built (I didn't have such luck with nahida or kaveh) I am just now realizing that he won't be as much of a change as I thought he would be since it's still single element damage lmao. I still won't be playing any reaction focused teams!

I want this guy, I really loved his gamestyle but the only thing is I don’t want to use 3 pyro characters in one team. I don’t like mono teams and I will feel like it would be waste for all my other characters that I was working on for so long.

i accidentally invested a liitle bit too much into Thoma as Lyney's shielder knowing that Thoma's shield is pretty unique as u have to do normal attack to stack 'em, now i think i have to invest in Dehya, or just simply play Zhongli (i want to use Lyney Ben + Pyro shielder with Kazuha to maximize my dmg) ah it is a tough decision

Now we just need hydro/geo/anemo/electro charged bow units.

I was saving my guaranteed for hutao but for some reason i decided to pull on lyney banner (to build pity) and got him at 52 pity. Im surprised by his dmg, like my talent levels are low and magician boy is hitting 30k+

what if we use dehya, kokomi , mona and lyney together? i think this work well

I will always use Ganyu as my main cryo charged shot, SHES thé best and I love her sm

I was pulling for Amos and ended up getting his weapon and I kind of don't want to pull for him , I can literally give him everything so should I pull, I'm near pity and I'm guaranteed

If you hit his taunt cat after a charge shot with his E it stacks an extra 60% damage

generally, morgana is the best option for groupable enemies, tighnari is the best for bosses and single target content, melt ganyu and lyney are kinda similar cuz they are decent into everything
