The only thing I dont like about Xueyi is that she wants a bit of everything: ATK, BE, Crits, SPD. She’s hard to build

How is bro gonna attack the entire community within the first 7 seconds

I'm just glad hat Xueyi design is both cool and more unique than other Luofu female characters

glad to see you back smack looks like you've recovered well

Glad you are back! Your first show case is like a play by play of my own run, right down to Fu Xuan hitting the side bug to ensure break. One thing that can happen in the run is if the mage + knight start the fight and hit xueyie first, you can actually have her ult the mage earlier and possibly save a cycle.

I didn't even think about her E6 allowing a 1:1 with her ult to follow-up Atk. That's sick. That was legit insightful. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this video man. I have looked at a lot of guides & videos about Xueyi since this patch released and yours is by far the best. My Xueyi is E5 and I am still pulling hoping to get her E6, and even better if I get Ruan Mei along the way. The amount of effort you put into the video is very obvious.

“If the enemy isn’t dead after the shield break, your Xueyi or your team sucks” While my Xueyi does suck 50/100 CR (working on it 😭), this statement only holds up with the current MoC turbulence. Xueyi is benefiting sooooo much from it. Fight elites in SU or any other MoC turbulence… you’re not killing max levels in one break with her on a hypercarry comp… Otherwise, I appreciate your video and showcases. I really enjoy Xueyi and her kit, and I’ve built her myself as she’s my first quantum DPS. And as much as I’m enjoying her and think she’s a great unit, that one break argument just does not stand without the turbulence doing half of the elite’s HP worth of damage because you shredded so much toughness in one cycle.

Im surprised you didn’t mention Tingyun as her next best companion to Ruan Mei. Not only does she cycle the ult faster, good atk buff, but also Tingyun scales off on Xueyi’s dmg percentages and Tingyuns follow up attack does a ATON of dmg when paired together.

Smack finally back and kicking the banger content. I also happen to have an E3 Xueyi! And I've come to know that playing her with the shield breaking and the follow-ups is so much fun. Great to learn as well that we don't need to invest too much Break Effect on her even if we can reach 240% and instead go for Crit stats. It's expensive but it'll be fun once she's fully built :D

very very detailed vid for sure and she is such a hyper shredder beast with that team comp

Before watching any guide I like to build the character myself and test it myself and seeing what they lack on and if I can fix it before going on the internet. When I saw the results between my E6 Xueyi and my E1S1 Ruan Mei I was very perplexed to find many CCs telling me that they had anti-sinergy because for me that wasn't absolutely the case and this video finally showed me that I wasn't completely an idiot 🙏🏻

I just wanted to thank u for helping me get pass moc 12 i beat rite after watching ur vid on xueyi and once i used her in hyper buff team i beat it on first try

Bro is a top tier nerd in the best interpretation of the word. This is a lot of good info which I just left at theorycrafting and speculation but you actually have proof

at 10:13 showcase. You did something wonderful with your graphics. The fidelity of the fight is very very good as to different layout of the screen. Nice and thank.

Solid video per usual. But I also wanted to drop a note saying that you had some of the best comments and additions to the big podcast that came out (via Tectone's channel). You were cookin. I just wish you and a few others were able to get more opportunities to talk.

I love your showcases! great to see! I got her E2 and Ruan Mei E1, Pela E6 - thinking about long term building her , not sure right now because Dr. Ration is on the way and im building my Yukong E3 right now :) so many great characters in HSR

Just a little thing I noticed in the first half showcase 1, you used your Ult with Ruan Mei before her turn started. This reduces her Ult duration by 1 turn. Great video btw, unfortunately I was unable to get any eidolons for my Xueyi and saving for Kafka now.

You seem and sound to be in better health now, good to see. Keep up the good content

Beautiful showcase and very informative!

Love the video! Good work!!

Perfect timing! finally finish building my xueyi and tried out this strat and was able to finish in 3 cycles

Since xueyi can amplified any element because of her trace passive, you can build tingyun for boost electro damage, 60/120 crit value and 150 break effect should be good, if you have better relic, good now you have tingyun who hit like 10k plus

Good to have you back man!

Hey dude.. I'm new here and just wanted to say that I really love your content.. you stoke my nerdy math brain lol.. first watch of every guide gets me hyped and educated.. then I watch them again while I'm trying to fall asleep because the information dense content overwhelms my brain and makes me pass the F out 😂 - Big love homie!

just in time for me trying to build Xueyi, thanks bro.

Just wanted to say, I love your content man, had to put off my game to fully immerse myself in info you're covering.

Thanks for the detailed guide. Only have QQ and Xueyi as my Quantum damage dealers so this will help.

Thanks for this great information man. I was hesitating to build xueyi coz i have mine at e2, i'm gonna build her with my e1 fu xuan, e6 pela, and e0s1 ruan mei. Keep up with the spreading of correct information with this game.

Glad to see you back big dawg 🤵🏽‍♂️

Thank you my wondrous king Gacha smack.

❤❤❤ to see you healthy and lively king is back 😊

Yup! Sounds right, Dreamy showcase of Xueyi during the tournament was eye opening to her being more hyper carry than dual dps. And u further verified this 🎉🎉

For me the main “double edge sword “ came with using SW in the comp with Ruan mei. She deals so much toughness damage that she can easily steal breaks from Xueyi if you aren’t careful. And she leaves less toughness for Xueyi to damage which can slow down the follow ups

I love Xueyi but mine does doodoo damage right now so appreciate the video. Will try to make her better lol. I was trying to dual dps tho

Love the OG Naruto music, keep up the great work brother. Hope that your feeing better

Alright, fiiiiiiine. I'll use my Xueyi in more Hyper carry builds. Man....

Appreciate your videos. Can you make us a character breakdown playlist pls.

OMG HAI WELCOME BACK!

Smack imma need you to drop a vid on rerun characters we should pull for. I’m on ps5 so i missed a lot of characters 😂

My man decided to start the year w fire

Finally i waited for this

I just like playing xueyi with tingyun and proc the same damage with tings talent it’s very fun to see

That roguekiller comment had me weak lmao

Did you watch the 1 cycle Moc 12 side B with Xueyi made by Dreamy? It was a Bronya comp so I think it also shows how Bronya's advance forward skill is broken even without the dammage bonus

Crazy how I got E1 Fu Xuan for Jing Yuan, and in trying to get Blade and Ruan Mei, I now have a E6 Xueyi. Def wanna try this out

Got her E6 From ruan mei banner shes really helped carry me through these lower rank levels since i just started HSR shes been a life saver against bosses that i dont have units built for

check the synergy of Xueyi with Tingyun as it attacks an enemy, an ally with the “Blessing” status immediately inflicts additional electrical damage on the same enemy equal to 30-75% of that ally’s attack power.

Ive noticed with her that running double atk ornaments alongside aeon is still better for her in a mono quantum team instead of atk orb and be rope. (I do have be substats for days tho)

W content!

I fell in love with Xueyi yesterday after reading her character story + She has literally 5 star animations like her sister + she's fun af

worth the wait! btw guys, i just started the game last month so im not that familiar with characters and kit. who can replace fuxuan in the ruan mei + xueyi + pela + fuxuan comp? thanks in advance.

its so refreshing to have a creator like you in the hsr community, like holy shit what i wouldnt give for a similar dude to exist for grateful impact

How much does the ruan mei/Xueyi combo improve with E2 ruan mei and E6 Xueyi?

I haven't had this much fun playing with a 4 star dps I got her e6 while going for e1 ruan mei and she's buttery smooth she is a bit complicated to build and my build is kinda crappy but she's still very fun

I agree that Xueyi is just one of the most enjoyable characters to play with- very fun kit

alright correct me if i'm wrong here, he keeps saying that the enemy should die before they recover from the break, that the double eged sword will only show if i have skill issue or playing her suboptimally... but what i'm seeing here, the most damage came from the moc buff.. the moc buff definitely favors ruan mei.. so i'm just curious will this still work when future moc buffs doesnt give additional damage or doesnt favor enemies being in break for a long time

2:34 THANK YOU. FINALLY SOMEONE WHO HAS THE BRAINS TO UNDERSTAND THIS!

the king has returned 😂❤

It’s true, tried her with both Ruan Mei and SW. With Ting and Bronya. Ting and SW. And first team performed the best by far.

11:11 very true BUT I feel like she’s meant to be played with other follow up attackers and Ruan mei. The thing I don’t know is if aoe follow up attacks count as one or one for each target. If the latter we can see some interesting team comps in the future

say Xueyi's damage has high ceiling but she also has a really high floor compared to some other characters, we can look for the crit stats but as we've seen the enemy mob just dies from a single break. It's exciting to see how much xueyi would benifit from good crit ratio but until we get tanker enemies we can't appreciate how strong she can be. 😊

Thoughts on Current dream hanabi vs ruan mei for E0/E6 xueyi?

16:34 bug did not die from Ruan mei break reproke but did die from MoC buff but ya like that Double edged sword is Not a thing you need to worry about Most of the time PF might be the place you worry about it if anything

I love your videos bro haha

Was going to run a break effect rope of Xueyi but I got a Atk% rope and it all rolled into BE% 31.7. Going to need a god tier rope to change that out with CR and CD

Nice video. There was a small misplay on the Pela run. You wasted a turn of RM's ult because you used it right before her turn when the bug appeared.

I'm a newer player, I have both Xueyi E3 and Qingque E1, who should I build for mono quantum?

can u make a video on Pure Fiction cuz am seeing alot of talk for herta ganna be good for it and i wanna know if it worth my stuff buildig her vs build other unit like ratio

Bro, can you share your thoughts about Black Swan and Kafka synergy?

I don’t wanna sound weird, but, Gotcha smack reminds me of my Freshman year algebra one teacher, and he was like an uncle to me. So naturally, Gatcha Smack’s content is very comforting and nostalgic to me.

EP 1 OF SOLO LEVELING IS OUT!!!

Just want to know should i build qq or xueyi for my mono quantum team? Im planning to get sparkle later

love xueyi's desgin, im gonna invest. Glad she doesnt rely on bronya since i dont have her yet

just a quick question , could u replace pela with Silver Wolf ? it could be said its obvious but silver wolfes ult only lowers def on a single enemy so i wanna know

Had fun with solo sustain march 7 vs ice weak enemies + ruan mei + xueyi + another dps of an element that the enemy is weak to. E6 xueyi gets stacks very fast from every march follow up attack, or any other unit that attacks/ults/follow-ups often (Sushang, blade, clara, topaz) maybe not peak optimal, but lots of fun

I got E1 Ruan Mei and E6 Xueyi in 130 pulls... can't wait to try that 1:1 skill/ult to FUA!

It sucks how much I would have to put into xueyi, I just started 2 months ago so I don’t have any resources to spare on building another character, especially one so costly. I’ll definitely build her one day

I have been teaming up xueyi with march for fun cause you get a karma stack for every follow up and if want them to recover from break a little faster i can freeze as well

So happy the RNG gods blessed me with a E6 while going to Ruan Mei

Hey gacha can you tell us when exactly is usually better to use an atk % sphere? Is it when bonuses are 30% already? When do bonuses get to diminishing returns that makes atk% better?

Mr g i have a question if you don't mind ! but first chief kiss video ..... as usual 😊 my question is is there's any new build for blade or it's the same ? i got him recently and kinda confused cus there is a lot of different opinions on how to build him , but thank god i remembered that i have our guide in this land help , but kind stressed cus the vid is kinda old and alot of things got changed so not sure on what to do .

I got lucky 8 xueyi in 100 pulls gonna be maxing her for sure

I don't have Fu Xuan. Is she necessary for any of these comps? Any alternate suggestions?

Idk much about Xueyi and maybe is the differents investments levels but Dreamy did a one cycle clear with Ruan Mei Bronya and Fu Xuan, but yeah putting those two together makes every DPS a Killing machine, but yeah Xueyi E6 it's a diferent character

THAT GUINAIFEN VIDEO NEVER COMING OUT 🔥🔥

I’ve been using Clara, HuoHuo and Ruan Mei with her and it’s been going well. If you want to try a dual dps comp that’s if you even consider Clara a dps to begin with…

I just love ult sound. Ahaaaaaaaa

Thanks smack for another Banga video. About xueyi, I already have my gamba queen. No xueyi no problem.

Really tempting to go for E6 but im at 63 pity 50/50 and mine is at E4 but I need to pull Kafka for Black Swan, trying not to whale until Black Swan at least 😪

It's gonna be alotnof work to make my Xueyi to be the strongest one out there but it's gonna be worth it. Ty for the insight Smack. (But good lawd do I hate farming quantum)

Does Ruan Mei e1 help boost Xueyi damage as well?

19:48 What’s that tiny gremlin sound xD and where did it come from?

I know this is a little late, but Xueyi carried me through the MoC 12 for full stars I had no ice carry or quantum carry so yea... crazy good 4 star and only at E2, and was on break set

i just really like her design so i'll play any character no matter where they stand in the meta as long as i think they look cool and in one way or another i usually make em work.

the funny thing is I have her at e6 and I wasn’t even trying to get her I wanted e1 ruan mei and e6 tingyun (e4 at the time I started pulling) good thing I have an extra dps now.. It will take time to build though

Bros always coming through with the fire P5 soundtrack lets go

Well the first phase isn't over yet. Go get your E4 bro!

I don't know, I've seen a pretty convincing E6 Xueyi showcase, since showcases are what we're going off of here, of her doing the second half of MoC 12 in 1 cycle with a Ruan Mei + Bronya comp. It may be, as you said, an issue with the LC you are using. Or, it may be because of the E6 vs. the E3 on Xueyi. In the showcase I saw, though, Bronya was very important in it, and the Bronya was only E0 to boot. So, perhaps Bronya's synergy goes up further in practice at E6 + a more Bronya-synergistic LC based on what I've seen others do with her and E6 Xueyi.

I think I heard someone said she's really only Dual DPS friendly with Blade, Jingliu, or Topaz, but Definitely she peforms better in a Hyperbuffed Scneario ie basically plopping her into Mono Quantum + Ruan Mei with SW or Pela depending on the Scneario 2.0 will be where she does benefit some more. From a certain Lightcone, as well as a Certain character who could be better then Bronya for Xueyi.
