I'm having fun with these types of blogs.

Tell me a team composition that you love, but would have meta players raving, flaming, and crucifying you for.

For this blog, I define "meta" as the "most effective tactic available." In Genshin's case, ways to clear Abyss with 36 stars the fastest way possible and teams that cause the most damage. These teams are often repetitive across accounts, such as Raiden National (Raiden, Xingqiu, Bennet, and Xiangling) or Morgana (Ganyu, Mona, Diona, and Venti).

Much like my previous blog, I will not reply back to any comments. My purpose for this blog is to learn how others have fun with their Genshin teams.

This is a free/"safe" space to rant, but remain courteous and respectful in the comments section to others and me. Please. I will not tolerate anyone who wants to have an argument, be a snarky bitch, or give unsolicited "advice." I will block those involved.

Example, ofc, offered below the cut:

Old photo, Shinobu is now lvl 90. Anyway, my Kavetham team is the one I get the most backlash for. While it does have meta qualities, Xingqiu + Kuki + Dendro = Hyperbloom, the metaslaves cry so hard that I put the Kaveh and Alhaitham together.

"Kaveh and Alhaitham don't work together."

"They have no "synergy.""

"That's not enough dendro application."

"They're like lathering mayonnaise onto a CPU."

No. They're not "mayonnaise" and a "CPU" or water and oil. They are two Dendro units that provide dendro resonance, can be major powerhouses alone, but even more dangerous together.

I made it work.

Kaveh made it to Abyss floor 11, chamber 3. If they were all fully built, they would be MENACES. The best built is Kaveh at C2R5, Talents 6/7/9, artifacts lvl 20. Everyone else is still a WIP, low talent levels, artifacts lvl 0-5, and weapons lvl 20-80.

My rotation:

¹ Alhaitham's skill and burst (or just skill, if his burst isn't up)

² Xingqiu's skill or burst for hydro application

³ Kaveh's burst and skill to detonate the cores and apply more dendro

⚡️ Shinobu is there to be the responsible one(/hj, the healer) that makes sure the boys don't get killed and she applies quickening and hyperbloom. Kaveh is more or less self-sufficient with his passive and can keep himself alive.

Although Kaveh is my dendro main, I switch between Kaveh and Alhaitham as I see fit. To make it less meta, Xingqiu and Shinobu can actually be replaced with double hydro (ex. Mona and Barbara) or Hydro+Zhongli, because gods forbid Alhaitham takes damage from his own cores.

It works if you rotate it right, but no one wants to put in the extra work to figure it out. The meta creates a close-minded set of builds, and it's filled with people who just want those giant crit numbers. I don't deny the meta characters, teams, and builds do great damage, but the metaslaves so often claim their unwarranted "advice" is just "worry for the team's functionality," like "I asked if my Kaveh build was good, not if Kaveh and Alhaitham had "synergy."

Me with my team building & scheming shenanigans:

On a silly little note, I have decided to build DPS Noelle and QiQi, both characters that have been tossed aside by the meta. I'm so excited to build them.

I've asked this on Hoyolab a few times in BottleMi but the response was tepid. Only 3 brave souls decided to share their thoughts. I saw two teams of full DPS units and a Yoimiya main who said "any Yoimiya team" (they didn't elaborate further).

Yes, yes. I know. "Play the game however you want. 🙄 Why are you complaining? 😂" Oh, darling. It's ✨️cunt hours✨️ right now. And I'm sitting here with my wine ready to read. 💅🍷 📖 Rant to me, darlings, and I will listen.

Subject: RAIDEN CAME HOME!!!

*Does a dorky little dance*

Well, it was my alt account BUT THAT'S TOTALLY ALRIGHT I FINALLY GOT HER!!!!!

I did try pulling for her on my main, but ran out of fates, and just kinda decided that I'd rather save and get nahida (since I practically need her on so many teams and she's like my favourite archon!!!)

(well, does furnia count as an archon? I mean she did play the role of an archon..... they both share first place if furina counts)

I literally had to complete the seirai island quests to unlock her boss lmao (also cause I ran out to primos just as I hit pity) I kept stalling so many quests because I didn't want to just skip dialogues like I did on my main

Anyways, she's home!!!! But....

but there's a problem...........

The Catch.................

.............

And the handguards...............

Well, guess I'll need to be spending a little bit more time in my alt now for fishing and farming those handguards haha....ha.........

But it's fine I have raiden now!!! (Who's holding onto a very underleveled favonius lance... it causes me great turmoil to see her use it haha.....)

Also, I see that hsr's free 5*, dr ratio, has caused a lot of well... excitement over here hehehe (I admit I am curious about that 'mask' he puts on from what I saw from the random hoyolab posts, he seems like an interesting character)

May the rest of January be even better and joyous!

YEAAHHH SO TRUE UR FINALLY A RAIDEN HAVER CLOVER NONNIE 😩😩 after so long shes finally come home to u ;w;; even if its on ur alt its still ur account ;w;;;;; and furina technically isnt an archon since she was just a human who had to act the part for 500 years, but i still call her one purely bc she had to endure 500 years of loneliness and solitude for the sake of focalors plan ;w;

STOP DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE CATCH AND THE HANDGUARDS 😭 to this day i still havent even made one copy of the catch... but i probably should.... but i havent bc i still havent built my xiangling 🧍‍♀️ the handguards i SWEAR have a decreased drop rate on just the green drops alone 😭 inazuma farming my beloathed...

and yes the dr ratio experience has been an... experience. for a lack of better words ;w; all im saying is when he comes out tmrw and i (hopefully) get his lightcone, there will be no peace on this blog (as if there ever was to begin with)
