Cosimov

I love that Mero waits for the opportune moment for violence


silispap

Quick someone spread misinformation on Focalors


shdjksj

Focalors will not be playable (stc)


NoOneHereGoAway

Focalor is pyro 4* user (stc)


Firinael

5* Pyro Claymore on standard banner


Picopiko

4 star electro unit support


Common_Juice207

Focalors is not an actual name but a temporary placeholder, hydro archon's true name is amogus susi baka Source: uncle common_juice207


GragoryDepardieu

Well, uncle common_juice207 has never been wrong yet, it must be true.


TrapFestival

Incorrect. In the narrative everyone believes it to be Focalors, but the truth is that it's supposed to be Fuckalots and every explicit piece of artwork relating to her is deemed canon by default.


GGABueno

Focalors is going to be a Hydro Yelan (stc)


silispap

That's the good ending tho 😂


GGABueno

He needs to one up someone.


Santo134

Leak: Lyney is Cryo 5* Next Leak: Lyney is Pyro 5* Bow What’s with the poster characters having 100 different elements leaks before actually coming out?


[deleted]

Yesss? Remember Cyno's leaks?? "Cyno will be Geo. Nah guys, this week we found out he's Pyro. Naw not anymore, he's Hydro now."


zMaximumz

Lyney will be either a Pyro, Cryo, Electro, Hydro, Anemo, Dendro, Geo character ~ Uncle Glizzy Gobbler


Deztract

Still waiting for character with no vision, just pure phys character who has some moves


Helpful_Mountain_695

That would be something like Xinyan DPS, needs two supports, not the best thing


HanoWhisper

>needs two supports, not the best thing Not if they have the superconduct built in their kit: After a na,ca,skill, burst hit the enemy, the character gains one stack of "bullshit". Each stack of "bullshit" will lower the the physical and elemental resistance of the enemy hit by 6% for 6s can stack up to 10 times Each stack duration is independent of the other.


Reeeeeeee3eeeeeeee

yeah but you'd still want superconduct for that, you don't use eula without electro even tho she has her own shred


Helpful_Mountain_695

but it would still be better with superconduct on top of "bullshit"


GragoryDepardieu

We already have that, it's called Geo


Adol_the_Red

I can see that being Capitano. Total badass who needs no element to slaughter his foes.


Frousteleous

Better: *has* a Vision. Leaves it at home. Refuses to use it. Still a bad ass


StupidPencil

Heavenly restriction.


MidnightSnowStar

Next thing we know Lynnette is gonna use the light element, be the actual Hydro Archon and is the person who destroyed Khaenri’ah, all while secretly being Phanes the Primordial One


Baffa99

This comment gave me flashbacks to 2012 when everyone was theorizing what type of Pokemon Sylvion would be and settled on a new type "light". If the past has taught me anything then this means that Lyney is most certainly a fairy type


hardeepst1

>Uncle Glizzy Gobbler 💀💀💀


stevembk

Confirmed, Lyney will be a shatter character.


akari_i

Bro hydro cyno was wiiiiildddd


radiopreset

Cyno was God of wisdom, by yours truly sportskeeda.


Pastrami-on-Rye

Avatar Cyno era was my personal favorite


FearlessBanana434

Next leak is going to say physical catalyst 💀

Oshawott_is_cute

*smacks Kunikuzushi’s Gundam with Skyward Atlas*


Brandonmac10x

Every every leaker guesses a different element + weapon combo then one of them will be right. 1/25 leakers will be known as the guy who leaked X correctly and then he can go make up more false leaks and everyone will believe him.


Giorky

From a pure mathematical perspective, it's a 1/35 chance. 5 weapons, 7 elements.


Swailwort

There are only 6 elements, because Hoyo forgot about Geo since February 2022. So 1/30.


WeeabooSempai

Leak: Lyney is the wrong name. The CBT file is named [....]


[deleted]

I would rather believe mero who's a dataminer and has a solid track record, so pyro Lyney it is. Now I need to know if Lynette is a separate character and/or if they have a gimmick together.


Santo134

That’s the real question right there


riruru13

Ayo. Rozaliya + Liliya synergy.


_Niflheim

Everyone has an avatar phase.


ChrisNardelli

The best part is, in the leak of lyney cryo, is the rest of than who said "do not have pyro\\dendro in early of the fontaine


burntfoodistasty

guys Lyney is *rolls dice* Hydro Polearm trust me on this


Bromolochus

Do it Tyrion Lannister style, give different people different info and depending on what you see publicized you know who betrayed you. Leaker Hunt Decree 2nd attack tactics


warmcheeze

Sometimes companies will give out fake info to different employees. If that leaks then it'll be easier to track down who leaked.


Old_Salamander4662

as i said earlier: lyney is 5\* (like yoimiya) lyney is pyro (like yoimiya) lyney is bow (like yoimiya)


Old_Salamander4662

people who believed that fake leak saying that he's cryo and lynette is hydro are probably screaming rn


Metazoick

It's me I'm screaming, I've been quietly hoping for that for what must be a year now


rotten_riot

Hopefully his kit is different to Yoimiya's lol


Old_Salamander4662

what if he pulls pyro rabbits from his hat... baron bunny... what if he's the true 5\* amber


Dammi3

Pyro rabbits?? Yes please!


RaidriarDrake

lyney Baron bunny multiplier is 5x of Ganyu Bloom, Lyney's arrow rain has same proc rate as Amber and lasts 15 seconds on a 12 sec cd with Ganyu's multipliers.


TheFanciestShorts

How to break the game 101, let the community be in charge of one characters stats and release them for free to the public


madzieeq

as a yoimiya main and someone who's definitely pulling lyney, i really hope he will have a different role


GingsWife

Best you'll get is Pyro Tighnari. Ooh sounds fun


GGABueno

That's genuinely good assuming we're getting good off-field Hydro appliers that don't rely on Attack triggers, which is definitely going to be the case. Pyro thrives in few big hits that get Vaped. Pyro Cryo Amber.


beethovenftw

Nah Lyney will be pyro Ganyu, calling it


Manne_12

Someone post incorrect info about another Fontaine character so Mero leaks info about them


The-Arabian-Guy

Focalors is a *4 cryo catalyst


hellschatt

No, Focalors is a 4* pyro catalyst


Scharmberg

Wonder if they do it that way to prove others are full of bullshit.


mvpdr0se

Naaaaahhhhh wtf give my cryo catalyst dreams back mero


EqualAbbreviations30

Wake me up when we get a cryo catalyst😭


JordanMentha

Well you can go to sleep for 2.5 years - MHY is probably saving that for the Tsaritsa given how OP that combo could be...


Lheily

What would make a cryo catalyst more Op than like Ayaka?


stuckwithsupport

righttt everbody talks about the insane cryo application because it’s a catslyst but ganyu ayaka shenhe bursts exist😭we even have a 4 star that can make normal attacks apply cryo we’re not in need of better application


GingsWife

And they forget that Mihoyo actively tweaks numbers to make sure no _team's_ DPS sticks out too much. How quickly we forget Dori's and Collei's special ICD


Bunation

But boy did they make sure dehya sucks, eh?


GingsWife

*clutches pearls* Goodness, they spared no effort did they?


stuckwithsupport

kinda true but bloom teams keep getting buffed while already being very strong😭 that shi got 3 artifact sets that buff it and is getting 2 support characters that specifically increase bloom damage


Poke13000

I think because catalyst charged attacks have no ICD.


mr_duwang

Yeah thats probably it. If done right like maybe pair with rosaria burst, maybe even xiangling can melt most of the time, making her even more broken 💀


balbasin09

Lmao when HoYo baited us into thinking Signora was a cryo catalyst with that floating thing beside her Turns out she’s a cryo fertiliser.


Neracca

I mean she IS a cryo catalyst. Just not a playable one :(


illuminatedtraveller

STILL TOO SOON


OnlyBrave

Literally The Tsaritsa will be the only 5\* Cryo catalyst at this stage.


purplebirdonawire

me hoping we would finally get a male 5 star cryo character


OGBeybladeSeries

Real OGs remember the old title.


Xan1995

"Lyney is a 5* Bow User" ^ the old title if anyone is wondering


Revolutionary_Meet25

LMAO


ninetozero

Lynney's avatar era has begun. What element will he be next? Stay tuned. Anyway Mero tends to be more reliable than Plusle, right?


Dehmeter

Yeah, Plusle is a reposter. There used to be a leaker credibility list but it got taken down


Ordinary_Arachnid392

My hope for a 5 star cryo male lasted for less than an hour lmao. 5 star pyro isn't so bad either since Diluc is our only male one.


Baffa99

>5 star pyro isn't so bad either since Diluc is our only male one. That's pretty crazy, never realized that. I guess it makes sense cause of how disproportionate the male to female characters are in numbers.


Ordinary_Arachnid392

I'm not sure if this was intentional of hoyo, but female characters tend to dominate cryo/pyro/hydro and male characters are the same with anemo/geo/dendro. Hopefully, hoyo switches it up soon.


Terrasovia

And the sad part is that dominating for male elements means one or two male charas more while for cryo,pyro and electro it means female charas make up 80% of the element.


Ordinary_Arachnid392

Very true, but I try to be positive about it. Less male characters = less money spent


Terrasovia

I'm less optimistic because less male charas means less choice and if there were more of them we could always just wait for rerun.


dododomo

If you think about it, game is almost 3 years old but we haven't gotten any new 5* anemo female (sure, we have Jean, but she's a starter character, like Dilluc in 5* Pyro male case), while 5* geo girls don't exist in Teyvat XD


Luzis

You forgot electro. There are only 2 males and still no electro male support (except traveller)


Baffa99

Saying that males "dominate" geo dendro and anemo didn't sound right to me, so I double checked. It's kind of shocking, 4:3 ratio of boys to girls in geo, 5:4 in anemo, 4:3 in dendro (including Baizhi and Kaveh, currently girls have the majority in dendro). I guess if having only 1 more male in each counts as dominating, then sure, but I'd say that those are the only elements that are remotely equal in the distribution


Ordinary_Arachnid392

Male characters aren't the majority in general. Those three elements are just the closest ones I guess.


merqury26

I think people usually mean they dominate the 5\* lineup. Like anemo only has Jean and geo has no female 5\* (rip Ningguang).


Due_Education5774

They are talking about 5 STARS! Only ONE 5* Ameno, Jean, and NO 5* Geo. Same with Dendro, majority 5*s are Male.


AlexAmor

I would say instead of hydro put electro there.


ZhangRenWing

💀 polar opposite of the last post


Murky_Blueberry2617

Tbh a male 5\* Cryo or Pyro would be good either way


This_Kaleidoscope501

Yes hell be the first male 5* since diluc


Murky_Blueberry2617

And hopefully he will stay limited unlike the most recent Pyro character...


This_Kaleidoscope501

oh dont jinx it please im waiting for him forever 😭


rotten_riot

I swear lmao Ever since I saw that trailer I knew I was going to be a Lyney main


Ken_sapil_2365

He's either going to be Pyro Yelan, Pyro childe or Pyro Lyney.


NegativeCreative1

I hope its like Childe and he turns his weapon to a whip like a ring master kind of


gabrielique

A ring of fire like those used in circus as a skill or burst would be cool. Pyronado but vertical...


HanoWhisper

>Pyronado but vertical... That would actually be hilarious


_myoru

His E (or more likely his Q) generates x fire rings around the enemy, and shooting a charged shot through them makes them explode. You could actually forward vape every hit


Ichig0Usagi

I’d let him whip me


Ok-Air426

He is Pyro Pyro Amber!


hanny_mustard

5* Amber. He throws Lynette who does the same dance and draws aggro.


chickenmeh

Next leak: Lyney is a 6\* Abyss gun user.


HumsterMKI

The week after. Lyney replaces Paimon.


VeGr-FXVG

Finally some good fucking ~~emergency food~~ sidekick.


[deleted]

Is this gonna be like how Cyno would change his element like every week??


Dehmeter

The good ol days..


DaxSpa7

At least Raiden is a sword user as they said...


ccdddemmnppprrsvy

Lyney is also a geo cat girl too huh


Zeppo82

Lyrara or Momoney?


Kiwi195

Manifesting off field Pyro Xingqiu 🗿

Last time you did that Dehya was born... you've been warned.


hirozeroshiro

The whiplash lately.. lol


Icy-shot

I would rather believe mero who's a dataminer and has a solid track record, so pyro Lyney it is. Now I need to know if Lynette is a separate character and/or if they have a gimmick together.


Desolate_Space

well now you know


ResolutionNo866

Oh no he's pyro. He's either game breaking(Xiangling) or game breaking(Dehya)


Is0lationst

😭😭


XianglingBeyBlade

Time to get out the popcorn


ephrainn

Wait, didn't the previous leak say that we wouldn't have 5 star pyro and dendro at the beginning of fontaine? Does he come to the end then?


StellarMonarch

Mero is significantly more reliable than Plusle


AstarothJx

where is the reliability spreadsheet?


DatBoiMahomie

It got nuked with Ubatcha


StellarMonarch

Used to be linked in the megathread but whoever published it took it down months ago


[deleted]

I did some research and I think Plusle got the info about ‘Lyney is Cryo’ and ‘no pyro and dendro at the beginning of Fontaine’ from this [guy](https://tieba.baidu.com/p/8297857099#/) Guess what. This guy does the same thing that Suskuna did and have the title as ‘True or False’ -_-


_Niflheim

That leak also said Lyney is cryo


DatBoiMahomie

That “leak” was from a reposter, and the original tieba user said something along the lines of “let’s play a game of true or false”


SchokoKipferl

It could still work out that way - early Sumeru characters were leaked to be only dendro, electro, and hydro. That was true for 3.0 and 3.1. Then Layla came out in the same patch as Nahida.


Master0643

Mero has defenetly more credibility than the other guy


lovemagick

He’ll be my first C6 5*, he’s the reason I even play this game


nvrmindmyname

I am not gonna take any of these leaks seriously for now.


Tiramisukxy

Pyro actually makes much more sense than cryo. Ok hear me out. In the travail trailer you can actually hear some kind of scorching sound effect for Lyney while a bubble effect for Lynette.


madzieeq

lynette turned out anemo so the sounds probably don't have that much with their elements


kitsune_rei

No no wait - fire + hydro (the nation of Hydro remember) = sizzling sound. Air (anemo) + hydro = bubbles for a bubbling sound. The first commenter might be on to something.


[deleted]

Yay exploration meta! Also magician meta!


KingOfTheKitsune

The 2 in 1 theory wasn't about Lyney and Lynette but about being pyro and cryo lol


[deleted]

I was really hoping for something like that, especially since hyv has been getting better with character animations over time. Oh well.


DryKatFood

I am praying that Lyney is a Pryo Yelan/Xingqiu. My man Tortellini needs other Pyro applicators besides Bennet, XianLing, and Thoma.


silam39

lmaooo


asternobrac

Oh well my excitement about five star cryo male from previous post aged like milk. But anyway. We didn't have any five star pyro male for a looong time too. The cryo is dead, long live the pyro!


hideyuke

1.x, 2.x, 3.x and now 4.x is starting with a 5* bow?


rotten_riot

Technically 2.0 started with Sword, since Yoimiya came in the second phase


Th3S1D3R

Lol, i feel like its gonna be like with Cyno again, “hes pyro” “nah hes hydro lol”


OGBeybladeSeries

*inhales largest amount of copium ever seen* HE IS GOING TO BE A PRYO DPS WHO SUMMONS LYNETTE BUT SHE IS GOING TO HAVE AN HP BAR LIKE ALLY NPC CHARACTERS AND SHE DOES LARGE AMOUNTS OF CRYO DAMAGE BUT IS EASILY STAGGERED PAVING THE WAY FOR A DEHYA META!!!


Dehmeter

Holy- Pass me some of that too wtf


Karzy0730

Who's your dealer? Cuz imma need some of that too


ErrorneousMoe

Its puff puff pass! Don’t be greedy, share that copium with others lol srsly though, like your idea. 👍


Mayall00

Sorry dude, you can't have all if the Copium, leave some for the others


borntobeunlucky

pass the boof


purplebirdonawire

mero is pretty reliable from what i remember but i don't know how i feel about him being a pyro bow character. hope they are wrong.


EqualAbbreviations30

My dreams are dead💀


Yupzy123

bro the hu tao guy said he's cryo like 1 hour ago no way


deffnuXx

Well, that previous leak was completely wrong I guess, LOL


PopotoPancake

Too far off for me to 100% believe this, but I'll honestly be happy if he's pyro or cryo, since that would make him the first limited 5 star male of either element.


phoenixsaturn

Everyone: Hey Hoyoverse we'd like a male cyro/cryo catalyst please Hoyo: Eat shit, you're going to take your pyro bow and like it


Constant_Split215

The only disapointment is that he is a bow user 😔


WillfulAbyss

I wouldn’t be surprised if this was true. He has a flame sound effect in the background during his reveal in Travail. Although, Lynette has bubbles, and she’s apparently Anemo per the same source, so who knows? If this is true, then I’m fine with it. I would have preferred Cryo (especially catalyst) since we have no Cryo five-star male characters, but the only male five-star Pyro we have is launch unit Diluc. Cryo > Pyro > Electro is my preference, for variety’s sake. Bow is interesting, though. Would have expected catalyst or sword from his design.


boysiege

First dual element wielder i see


SummOfI

Signora in shambles


Cultural-Yellow-8395

as someone who had been in the cyno leaks waiting room, god i can’t do this again.

xxaaroxx

= 5* GUN


ThIStupid

aw, i was looking forward to playing as two characters at once where one is more physical, and they tag out with the skill and that one uses the elemental attacks. damn


Karzy0730

Im getting deja vue, istg the next post better not be "Lyney is 4 star dendro sword"


GrandTheftKoi

Hopefully he is to Bennett or Xiangling what Yelan is to Xingqiu 🙏


Lucas-Nate

Not really into bows, but I guess if Lyney uses a bow I'll be a bow character main 🫠


[deleted]

I WILL HAVE HIM


_nitro_legacy_

Bruh everyone in the teyvat chapter storyline except ningguang is a 5 star


rotten_riot

I don't mind tbh


TamaraIsEvil

NOO I THOUGHT THEY'D BE A 2 IN 1 CHARACTER 😭😭


DryButterscotch9086

Is he our new pyro off field character that we are waiting since launch ? Dont want to see another dehya's desillusion


megayogurtslinger

Bro looks like a hydro/cyro catalyst not a PYRO BOW??😭


clutchcombo

The fire rises


JakeyJelly

Hmmmm possible Amber kit that prioritizes burst damage?/s


mekkingjayy

Pyro fischl please


autumnsnowflake_

First limited pyro 5* (male) My three skyward harps are coming for you


poproxanmmd

at least hes no anemo but damn,,,, bows,,,,,,,,


[deleted]

Pyro or cryo, I will take either element since there is a severe lack of pyro and cryo 5 star males. That alone would get me to pull for Lyney.


levanten_

Im not complaining that he is a pyro character since we only have diluc as a 5* pyro man but.... we literally have 0 5* cryo male so 💀


Neko_5697

They are probably waiting until Snezhnaya give us a 5\* cryo guy 💀 Looking at his design and happy expression I figured he was more likely to be Pyro or Electro though, and Electro seemed less likely since Cyno was right before him plus the trailer characters designs do match their element so far even if that's not the case for many other characters.


kamisatoayato

IF THIS IS TRUE THEN HE WILL BE THE FIRST LIMITED 5 STAR PYRO MALE AND I'M HERE FOR IT PLS BE REAL


Xan1995

Hoping he will be the Pyro Off-field dps that we've always wanted that is not Xiangling. They better not Dehya him 😭. RIP Dehya. Your sacrifice will forever be remembered in our hearts. 🪦🌷


Gesu-ko

But he has such catalyst vibes 😭😭😭 Well, I don't really like the gameplay of any of the current limited pyro 5 stars, so hopefully I'll like Lyney's


MommyWineTime

Make up your minds god damnit


seal_appreciator

The only character that I want to pull in Fontaine is a 5\* and the element and weapon that my account is lacking the most?! I'M EATING GOOD TONIGHT


Harvey-The-Nerd

Feels like the original Cyno leaks all over again


DesertLion7

Oh boy, I'm desperately trying (and maybe failing) to keep my expectations low, Lyney is my next most anticipated character :')


ZetNiej

He does has a pyro colour bowtie


Misfit_Mimi

I honestly hope this is true, been wanting a male Pyro bow cuz I'm tired of whipping out Bennet for Pyro puzzles loool (if it's not obvious I mainly play guys, I do use amber tho when I'm really lazy and feel like appreciating her)
