This is a brand new series I'm trying out to give an retrospective analysis on an operator based on CN players' perception on them over the 6 months since their release on CN.

Irene is crying for not being included in the list of swordmaster.

Powercreep personified...until Wis'adel. Irene is still my personal favourite character though, so I am a bit salty that she got powercrept so severely lol.

well, atleast she isn't like chen who is unusable in the current meta. Irene is still by no means a weak operator. Degen is just powerful

@k_a4685 6 күн бұрын

well, Irene still has hope on her 2nd module. as the base are 10% skill damage and the upgrade most likely increase her defense ignore

@k_a4685 Yeah, there's some hope for sure with her 2nd module.

@galeria_m 6 күн бұрын

@k_a4685 it could make her better against high defense enemies. well, tbh I think Degen still wins. Auto Recov and consistent CC still better than Irene's Levitate inconsistency and Offensive Recov.. I think that module will make her a better unit but not enough to compete with Degen. Just enough to make her extra viable even tho shes already a really viable unit

@Hoshiyomi-w- 6 күн бұрын

@@k_a4685Relistically, I doubt that Even if Irene some how got 80 atk base stats module (the highest amount for Swordmaster rn, which belong to ch'en module) and they upgrade her talent to 75% def ignore (triple the amount of Degen)... it would still not enough Again 0 def enimies : Irene deal 28350 dmg, while Degen deal 36834 dmg, more than 8kdmg different Again 1500 def enemies (which is realy high already), ... Degen still win, Irene deal 22987 dmg while Degen deal 23222 dmg Enemies with higher stats than this tend to have greater weight, so less dmg for Irene This is not factor others unities Degen has and how easy she can be set up So in conclusion, Irene is just dead

She was even a meme before that. Viviana’s kit is like a year 1 op. Except some of the ops in that year are actually better. Her biggest issue is her kit is kinda all over the place.

@nabi7701 6 күн бұрын

@2265Hello Eh I think thats a bit of an exaggeration. Shes definetly kind of mid in the current meta. But she would have actually been valuable in year 1. There weren't many options for melee arts damage other than like Mousse i think? And massive collections of 6 stars werent as common back then either so the options were a lot more lacking. But ofcourse its no longer year 1 meta so that doesnt really matter.

For mass appeal. Too many people think off rec is hard to use. So they sacrificed the integrity of the branch to have her sell more. Personally as a Chen user it's downgrade to me.

@John-el5sv 5 күн бұрын

I have been baffled since launch in that case. 1) Why is a Core Caster able to deal more AOE Arts damage and generally better than a Splash Caster? 2) Why is an arts guard able to overshadow most of the Casters in Arts damage for years? 3) Why is a Brawler Guard able to replace the role of vanguards for most stages in early game despite not generating DP and can lanehold even better? If we are talking about just sub-classes, why is Lappland the only Lord unit who only has attack recovery skills? All the rest have at least 1 auto recover skill. Why? Whhhhhyyyyy?😂 In all honesty, those who think that all future units should follow a subclass "specialty" should go back and look at the "exceptions" available since launch or else there will constantly be *Shocked Pikachu Face* 😂

@Thevoices6969 6 күн бұрын

Love your videos in general since they feel like the most objective critique possible, while also providing valuable insight on the operator themselves. I especially like your style of presentation, since its easy to look at, clear and aesthetically pleasing. The only critique id personally have would be spoiling bosses outside of global, for anyone thats trying to remain spoiler free for major event bosses, like myself for this case, for the last enemy in 2:45. I understand wanting to provide the viewer with future information itself, so i get why it was there, and why it would help people. I belong to a minority of people doing it, so ill have to refrain watching the hindsight videos, but i still hope for the best for you and your success in the future, since for me personally no one compares to your videos in the ak cc space.

In the future for modules could you have the level 2 numbers as well? At least in the module section? You have ~15.4% for level 1 and ~24.9% at level 3 but I was curious about what level 2 gives

@slonik0002 6 күн бұрын

I have slightly different numbers but level 2 and 3 both give roughly 5% per level, so imo you can stay with level 1 if you’re low on blocks for now since the upgrades are more min-max than other upcoming modules.
