I actually got him. I was so prepared to no life grind primos until the final day and I got him in the first 10 pull. I ran, crying with joy, to tell my roommate and she said "WTF are you even talking about" so I'm sharing it here
it's funny seeing death match being so close to Homa and Jade Spear, but even funnier that r5 White Tassel being so close to r5 deathmatch practically the same when considering normal players' execution, thanks for the video man.
Deathmatch is a great weapon for its absurd crit rate but it has the lowest base attack for a 4 star weapon which keeps this weapon in check its passive is also nice
Yeah Itto at C0 is kinda tricky to get the proper burst loop on and maximize damage. But that's good, it's always fun to slowly improve yourself with something. :)
Don't usually follow guides this much, but after really wanting this character for a long time I will stick around this channel because the amount and quality of information is absolutely one of the best I've found around. Congratulations on the hard work and thank you for bringing us that peace of mind many F2P minmaxers come hard to find. Haha. Love from Spain.
Cyno is very unique with his moves and his outfit because it was taken from the Egyptian civilization style :''Anubis to be exact ''god of death'' according to the ancient Egyptian gods back at that time and the shock waves he makes when he uses his ult it is shaped like an eye in Egypt its called" Eye of Horus" and the meaning of it is well-being, healing, and protection. anyways thanks for the cyno review I got my guy right away since his banner was released in seconds now I know what to do with cyno!!:) im Egyptian so im happy i got him :))
To we're both Egyptian AND we both love cyno? Altho I got him at c1 withoUT WANTING TO- cuz I was scared and ppl said his kit is bad.. maybe I should build him
Yeah, Cyno is way too cool both gameplay and character wise. As long as he is not too underpowered he is worth it. Also he is a featured 5* character that made an appearance both in trailers and comics so mihoyo will add something that will make him OP eventually (think how kokomi went from being useless to staple pick). Of course this is just speculation based on the past characters but I highly doubt they will stop with this power level since he was planned before the games launch itself so I am pretty sure they planned more than his release kit since It's been YEARS.
What made Kokomi OP? Shenhe? Her power level is exactly the same as it was on release. She's a comfort unit for cryo teams with the best off-field AoE hydro application. Her taser team is good but not top meta since it's inferior to the all-4* variant with Sucrose. What happened is that theorycrafters and the general playerbase just figured out what her best role is, and that finally drowned out the doomposting over time. For Cyno, his role is clear from the beginning, he's a selfish on-field damage dealer with no support role. He's much more like Xiao, who hasn't gotten any truly synergistic support since release. _Never_ pull a character based on hopium future supports. It's a fantasy, and nothing more. If you like his playstyle though, and you're ok with him not being the strongest, then don't hesitate. He'll 36* the abyss with proper investment, which is all that matters (almost every character can, focusing too much on the meta is bit needless). I'll probably get him, tbh.
@@NotAName1 I think what made kokomi skyrocket was her busted artifact set which basically guarantees her the equivalent of a ganyu charged every 3 seconds she's healing
Not really, Collei is a very important character too and she is very average even at whale potential, can say same about Diluc and others. That said, Nahida will probably increase Cyno power along all dendro reaction characters based.
Anyone else feels like Cyno should have an 8 or 12 pack set of abs and a more muscluar physique, especially given this man wanders the desert on a daily basis on foot ? That isn't taking into account the fighting climbing, jumping etc, he's probaly stuck doing on his "Errands"... to remove the "Viruses" that plague the Desert..as he casts down his terrifying judgement..
I started messing with a Cyno vegetable soup(?) comp and it's actually quite good. The group consists of Cyno, Nahida, Xingqiu and Thoma. I like this group because I was getting tired of switching to Thoma or Xingqiu in other comps only to find their elemental skills on cooldown. So I figured, let's throw them in with Cyno since he likes to hog field time anyway. Both their bursts last as long as Cyno's too and Nahida E has more than enough duration to last the full burst. Add the interruption resistance, damage reduction and shielding and its basically everything you want in a Cyno group: Bonus EM and consistent dendro application from Nahida; Interruption resistance, heals and hydro application from Xingqiu; shielding, pyro application and bonus NA damage from Thoma (assuming c6).
i got tighnari, Candace, kuki and him all in one ten pull, i immediately lost hope when i saw tighnari and skipped until i saw cyno in the draw, could never be more grateful
While Dendro is naturally the strongest, I'm actually having fun using a Cyno, Fischl, Kazuha, Zhongli team. I don't really want to use dendro mc. With this team, Cyno just destroys everything still with the shield, as well as the kazuha buff.
That's the same party I use! I'm soo happy I just got Zhongli in his last banner. He is perfect for Cyno. And Kazuha does not leave my party for anything or anyone, hehe.
I had around 120 wishes for him and got him on wish 40ish, while going for Candace I wasted every single wish and ended up with a C2 Candace in my last two ten pulls and a C2 Cyno, won 3 50/50s in a row.
I feel like Yunjin would be at least worth considering as well. Her burst + 4 Archaic Petra adds a lot of damage to a normal attack spamming unit. With all the damage multipliers Cyno has combined with his combo speed, she seems worth considering.
Maybe because her burst lasts 12 seconds to his 18? Maybe because a lot of his damage comes from his E and doesn't solely rely on NAs? Or maybe his Q counts as burst damage similar to Shogun? I'm honestly not sure but I agree that she should be tested with him. I'm thinking Cyno/Yunjin/Gorou/DendroMC.
I think Yun Jin would be a great pair as well, as would candace for him. The only issues with both of those is the bursts only lasting 12 seconds (if candace is c1, before that it's only 9). Atm only a few characters have 15 second off-field bursts which is pretty much the longest we can get atm. So I think Yelan and XQ go well with him. If you want longer duration damage. Either way I plan to test and experiment things for myself like usual. It's fun to do that. ^^
I just realize u could just instead use Albedo instead of Zhongli for extra off-field damage, em booster and a bit of a shield. Cyno can have a bit strong crystallized shield since he suppose to have tons of em where crystallize rely to be useful. For me U could make Albedo-Cyno-Beidou-Dendro Mc or Albedo-Cyno-Dori-Dendro Mc
@@geraldo4743 albedo's elevator hits have enough delay to not afffect cyno's quick normals. It's why albedo is the premier off field damage dealer(for hu tao) from the beginning especially when he got his BIS cinnibar spindle. He is mainly the other geo u could think u will need if u want off field damage while being updated to the need of em boost. The big downside for him is when he fights certain boss he is really useless.
Imagine acidently pulling on his banner just 1 random pull instead on venti's at 47 pity and getting him, and making a new account just to get venti on the 15 pull (later loosing 50/50 on raiden to tighnari + farming my ass until getting her + another tighnari on standard banner) and making my cyno my strongest dps now
Thanks for the guide and thank you for that amazing pun intro. I got super lucky and pulled Cyno at 20 pulls! I have rlly good guilded dream pieces (attack sands with double crit stats) plus jade spear. Thank you for the weapon and artifact chart cuz I know how Ill build him now. (so glad he has a lot of options cuz artifact RNG is not fun)
I can't believe it. I got cyno in like 20 pulls. Still had around 18k primos, decided to shoot for his weapon with a couple ten pulls and stop with 10k left. A single ten pull got his signature polearm, and the elegy bow. Stupid surprised, now I have enough primos to shoot for another character in the future, since I already have venti, and albedo. Don't really need nilou either, so I'ma go for Dehya(: trying to build my cyno to go to the new zone and that's why I'm here lol
Me and my friends have joked that now I have “two Xiaos” since they are kinda similar with their skills and burst infusion, but cynos burst is much more complex from the looks of it than Xiao’s. Don’t get me wrong, I love Xiao, my best damage dealer, favorite character, fun play style that absolutely destroys enemies but it is mind-numbingly simple. I think having to balance skill usage is an interesting quirk for cyno.
I'm late with this, but you can also add Cyno, Dendero MC, xinque, and Diona. Diona applying a shield, high Cryo damage and procs, and heals are good for blitz battles
I got him on accident and i was pissed at 1st because i didn't want him and he stole my 50/50 but after a few days of sulking i am over it and slighty less pissed and now started to use him and he is ok
I got him on my 30th pull, I was building pity for Yae Miko in the future but got him instead now I’m back to 0 pity and now I have to watch this😭😭…I’m kinda greateful I guess 🥺😗✌🏼0️⃣💫💔
i literally just got him on like 40 pity and 50/50 randomly im really happy since i really wanted him but afraid i couldnt get him bc i also want nahida well hopefully i can still get her
Well, I've got him by accident trying to get Candace, since she seem more useful for my roster from what I've seen. Of course got sayu to c6 instead and Kuki as a bonus. God damn, at this point I'm starting to believe that I'm cursed when it comes to hydro characters since it's easier for me to get a 5 star than 4 star hydro ;)...
I thought I was going insane when I heard the FFXIV music. I've spent too much time in all of the zones that I find myself humming the music, so I didn't think it was weird at first but then I realized the game wasn't even on.
lost 50 50 to tighnari which i was happy about then 81 pulls later i got cyno haha. also got xiao spear from standard fate from ascension. i was really happy about my gacha session today
I got him on the very first day, and didn't feel anything about it, because I just narrowly missed out on Kokomi -__- Just slotted him up with Dragon's Bane and Gilded Dreams for EM now since that's all I have available. Will see how he plays out in the next few months.
All I know is if I ever saw some young man drssed up like fricken anubus heading towards my arse with a very sharp spear my arse would be running full speed the opposite direction. Self-preservation my friends, these guys legit just stood there and got wrecked. You see scary man with sharp pointy stick you run like hell from man with very sharp pointy stick.
Wish his attack string didn't get reset by dashing. His final AoE hit is so satisfying, but you almost never get to use it. Feels like a Yoimiya situation again, dammit mihoyo, why?! Edit: Yep shield is useful, but it still doesn't solve the lack of repositioning you could get if you were able to dash. Esp you feel it since Cyno will tend to knock enemies away, and he doesn't quite have chase like Raiden.
Agreed for Cyno's quicken teams. I would only run Kazuha to clear first half of the abyss if you have C2. The EM boost is a huge dmg buff for Quicken/Spread and helps you clear just like Zhongli's resistance shred. If you don't have C2, just run Zhongli. If you don't have either, Sucrose on 4PC VV and TTDS works or a healer (Kokomi/Barbara/Kuki) on TTDS and Tenacity has worked the best for me.
Same exact story. I wanted Zhongli and kazuha but lost to Jean and I didn’t have enough for ganyu so I just pulled for Cyno and don’t regret it one bit .
I only had a few pulls saved at the start of the banner, but I was like 70 in towards pity. Lost the 50/50, so I told my friend he could harvest my scarabs, since they're pretty rare in the field. The very next day, I pull another 5 star, 5 pulls after my last one, and now I have no scarabs for a day or two to ascend him, lol.
I'm a new f2p genshin player. Been playing for almost 2 months as of writing this. I didn't know much about wishing so I ignorantly used my primos. I got Cyno on my 90th pull. And was lucky to get another copy on my 100th and 180th pulls. So I got C2 Cyno without spending money. Do I enjoy playing with him? Yes. Do I regret getting him? A little bit. I wish I spent my primos wisely on Zhongli or other meta 5 stars but his banner is not available. Anyway, Cyno has been helping me a lot in clearing genshin's content and I don't have any other 5 stars (intentionally forgetting my C1 Mona). :p
i got 2 Cynos(that mean cyno plus the first con) at 50/50 pity pull number 75 ithink i had like 70 pulls from kokomi banner(did not get her) and ever since i got lost in the desert looking for scarabs...there is still some time for me to build him befor i can use him as my main DPS...the funny thing is that i pulled for him just because i like his look lol
i know im a bit late, but i want to share my uninteresting story of getting him since a lot of other people are to! I actully took a long break from genshin (and had to make a new acc bc i forgot my old ones password like a dummy) and i did the windlme fest quest and decided i needed him, luckily it was around the time of his rerun and i had 50 pulls saved, on the 50th pull i got mona, so i gave up and ended my era as a f2p player sadly. but ive just recently finished all the archon quests available, and even tho a lot of people say his damage is as bad as his jokes, i don't care about crazy insane damage just usable damage and also, am i the only one who finds his jokes funny?
Does anyone know how the catch interacts with cyno? Does the passive not affect the bursts damage at all? If it did it would be an insanely good ftp option because it would give all the energy recharge you need as well as a good damage boost to the burst
The Catch unfortunately does not work with Cyno. His burst talent specifies that his "normal, charged, and plunging attacks are converted to Electro DMG" for the duration. Thus, his attacks during burst do not count as burst damage, but normal/charged/plunging attack damage instead. I hope this helps!
i got him while trying to get taghnri with 50/50 my first 50% win since two years i was bit sad but when i tried him i was so happy i ddnt lose 50/50 he is so fun to play with
I had no pity along with a guaranteed and just wanted kuki. Ended up getting cyno my first 10 pull when I was saving up for someone else, now having a 50/50 😐. time to build him ty for the video
I used my pitty for tighnari. Today was the day I gonna get another 5 star cause I was at 80 pulls again. Would you believe it. I lost the pitty and pulled tighnari again lmao🤣🤣
For the example build with Thundersoother: it's just an example of what you *can* do. Technically if you do the combo, 4TF is best! I HOPE ALL CYNO WANTERS BECOME CYNO HAVERS

For chara who dont need atk ratio, r5 white tassel and r5 deathmatch can equally compared to r1 5 star polearm
Cyno reminds me of itto. They both have simple kits on paper but it's more complicated practically especially if you want max possible DPS.
I feel like Cyno is a lot more complicated than Itto. I have Itto but because I have c1 I think it makes him a much simpler unit to use than c0.
Atleast itto have gorou tho, plis hyv give us another gorou for cyno and xiao T^T (1.3 xiao main still waiting for jean to come home _(:3 」∠)_)
Yeah Itto at C0 is kinda tricky to get the proper burst loop on and maximize damage. But that's good, it's always fun to slowly improve yourself with something. :)
Itto is way easier and deals much more dmg tho
"Despite him not having a Millennium Item, his kit does read like a Yu-Gi-Oh! Card"

"... Who needs reading anyways?!"

I can't believe it. I got cyno in like 20 pulls. Still had around 18k primos, decided to shoot for his weapon with a couple ten pulls and stop with 10k left. A single ten pull got his signature polearm, and the elegy bow. Stupid surprised, now I have enough primos to shoot for another character in the future, since I already have venti, and albedo. Don't really need nilou either, so I'ma go for Dehya(: trying to build my cyno to go to the new zone and that's why I'm here lol
Lol those scarabs are pain
Me and my friends have joked that now I have “two Xiaos” since they are kinda similar with their skills and burst infusion, but cynos burst is much more complex from the looks of it than Xiao’s.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Xiao, my best damage dealer, favorite character, fun play style that absolutely destroys enemies but it is mind-numbingly simple. I think having to balance skill usage is an interesting quirk for cyno.
Didn't expect cyno to come coz i was randomly pulling so thanks for the guide!
Super love his gameplay and he seems to do best with elemental reactions which I also love
I'm late with this, but you can also add Cyno, Dendero MC, xinque, and Diona. Diona applying a shield, high Cryo damage and procs, and heals are good for blitz battles
Got cyno accidentally ... but farming scarab is such a pain ...
This is how Hoyoverse Add a Rhythm Game-like character in Genshin
I got him on accident and i was pissed at 1st because i didn't want him and he stole my 50/50 but after a few days of sulking i am over it and slighty less pissed and now started to use him and he is ok
I got him on my 30th pull, I was building pity for Yae Miko in the future but got him instead now I’m back to 0 pity and now I have to watch this😭😭…I’m kinda greateful I guess 🥺😗✌🏼0️⃣💫💔
i literally just got him on like 40 pity and 50/50 randomly im really happy since i really wanted him but afraid i couldnt get him bc i also want nahida well hopefully i can still get her
Well, I've got him by accident trying to get Candace, since she seem more useful for my roster from what I've seen. Of course got sayu to c6 instead and Kuki as a bonus. God damn, at this point I'm starting to believe that I'm cursed when it comes to hydro characters since it's easier for me to get a 5 star than 4 star hydro ;)...
Finally confident about pulling for him because I got nahida. Wish me luck. 😭😭
Good luck!!!!
Finally ! After 4 years since his appearance in the manga Cyno is finally playable !
Wow! That is very long waiting...
I thought I was going insane when I heard the FFXIV music. I've spent too much time in all of the zones that I find myself humming the music, so I didn't think it was weird at first but then I realized the game wasn't even on.
lost 50 50 to tighnari which i was happy about then 81 pulls later i got cyno haha. also got xiao spear from standard fate from ascension. i was really happy about my gacha session today
I got him on the very first day, and didn't feel anything about it, because I just narrowly missed out on Kokomi -__-
Just slotted him up with Dragon's Bane and Gilded Dreams for EM now since that's all I have available. Will see how he plays out in the next few months.
I told myself if I get his weapon I'll pull for him, and look where I'm at now
where you at bro?
@@Lawlietsherpa watching this video 🗿
same situation here bro, and i lose to PJWS, and thankfully it is PJWS, not any kind of skyward sh*ts, so I have to do some research XD
I cant be the only one who laughed at the joke at the start right? ^^;; That was so unexpected and good lmao
All I know is if I ever saw some young man drssed up like fricken anubus heading towards my arse with a very sharp spear my arse would be running full speed the opposite direction. Self-preservation my friends, these guys legit just stood there and got wrecked. You see scary man with sharp pointy stick you run like hell from man with very sharp pointy stick.
Wish his attack string didn't get reset by dashing. His final AoE hit is so satisfying, but you almost never get to use it. Feels like a Yoimiya situation again, dammit mihoyo, why?!
Edit: Yep shield is useful, but it still doesn't solve the lack of repositioning you could get if you were able to dash. Esp you feel it since Cyno will tend to knock enemies away, and he doesn't quite have chase like Raiden.
Shield is the answer
That and Beidou's interruption resist
Agreed for Cyno's quicken teams. I would only run Kazuha to clear first half of the abyss if you have C2. The EM boost is a huge dmg buff for Quicken/Spread and helps you clear just like Zhongli's resistance shred. If you don't have C2, just run Zhongli. If you don't have either, Sucrose on 4PC VV and TTDS works or a healer (Kokomi/Barbara/Kuki) on TTDS and Tenacity has worked the best for me.
I got Cyno just now on my alt account and im literally so happy
I wanted ganyu but didnt have enough pulls for her, ended up getting cyno with the pulls from the update.
Same exact story. I wanted Zhongli and kazuha but lost to Jean and I didn’t have enough for ganyu so I just pulled for Cyno and don’t regret it one bit .
Same! Ganyu said hell no to me and I just decided to pull for cyno instead. He can in 1 10 pull 😊
That Nile River was really good
I was hoping for more bad jokes as the video went on.
I only had a few pulls saved at the start of the banner, but I was like 70 in towards pity. Lost the 50/50, so I told my friend he could harvest my scarabs, since they're pretty rare in the field. The very next day, I pull another 5 star, 5 pulls after my last one, and now I have no scarabs for a day or two to ascend him, lol.
and 1 year later he is back
A Genshin video with FFXIV music, truly the merging of two worlds :)
I have the emo Lord of Liyue but now I also have the dad jokes maker ✨️ *Y E S* ✨️
Me, suddenly totally distracted because I heard an Amaurot music remix in the background. Love it :)
Me who didn't want Cyno and did a ten pull on his banner without looking at my pity 🤡
Don't pull any banner that not you want..
Xiao, Itto, and now Cyno? I’m all in for “complicated” characters, I swear.
SAME LMAO
I'm a new f2p genshin player. Been playing for almost 2 months as of writing this. I didn't know much about wishing so I ignorantly used my primos. I got Cyno on my 90th pull. And was lucky to get another copy on my 100th and 180th pulls. So I got C2 Cyno without spending money. Do I enjoy playing with him? Yes. Do I regret getting him? A little bit. I wish I spent my primos wisely on Zhongli or other meta 5 stars but his banner is not available. Anyway, Cyno has been helping me a lot in clearing genshin's content and I don't have any other 5 stars (intentionally forgetting my C1 Mona). :p
Glad I'm already farm for 1 months cyno artifacts in glided dreams domain... worth 69% crit rate and 208% crit dmg... triple crown
Got 5 star within ten pulls
Lost 50/50
Got him in the next ten pull 🎉
I got Cyno after I lost 50/50 to Keqing and spending 120 wishes.
i got 2 Cynos(that mean cyno plus the first con) at 50/50 pity pull number 75 ithink i had like 70 pulls from kokomi banner(did not get her) and ever since i got lost in the desert looking for scarabs...there is still some time for me to build him befor i can use him as my main DPS...the funny thing is that i pulled for him just because i like his look lol
The puns in the video are just *chef’s kiss*
IT'S time for D-D-DDAD JOKES!
i know im a bit late, but i want to share my uninteresting story of getting him since a lot of other people are to! I actully took a long break from genshin (and had to make a new acc bc i forgot my old ones password like a dummy) and i did the windlme fest quest and decided i needed him, luckily it was around the time of his rerun and i had 50 pulls saved, on the 50th pull i got mona, so i gave up and ended my era as a f2p player sadly. but ive just recently finished all the archon quests available, and even tho a lot of people say his damage is as bad as his jokes, i don't care about crazy insane damage just usable damage and also, am i the only one who finds his jokes funny?
Finally, as a yugioh player, I can read a full novel just to explain a simple effect even in Genshin. The future is now babyy
I'm pulling him and the hydro shield girl just because reminds me Yu-gi-oh!
Damn Braxo. How did you make this video so quickly
I tried to get his weapon and got the skyward blade… the feeling of being burned by the weapon banner is the worst
Razor punching the air right now
Favonious lance makes him very very comfortable to use though, and allows for him to be solo electro. And it batteries the rest of the team.
Does anyone know how the catch interacts with cyno? Does the passive not affect the bursts damage at all? If it did it would be an insanely good ftp option because it would give all the energy recharge you need as well as a good damage boost to the burst
It doesn't, that's the reason Beidou's burst actually works with him and not with Raiden
It doesn’t work
The Catch unfortunately does not work with Cyno. His burst talent specifies that his "normal, charged, and plunging attacks are converted to Electro DMG" for the duration. Thus, his attacks during burst do not count as burst damage, but normal/charged/plunging attack damage instead. I hope this helps!
it doesn't! same as xiao, when their attacks are converted into their elemental dmg, it's based on normal atk p sure
Cyno is going to get wayyh better with Nahida.
i got him while trying to get taghnri with 50/50 my first 50% win since two years i was bit sad but when i tried him i was so happy i ddnt lose 50/50 he is so fun to play with
Tighnari is Cyno best friend.
Looks like I have decided, Gonna skip him for now and get him and his weapon in his rerun, imma get nahida first(assuming she will be good for cyno)
Bro and he kinda looks like one of the ancient gods in Egypt
0:00 Egypt??? Bizarre??? IS THAT A JOJO REFERENCE 🗿🗿
57 Pulls, failed the 50/50 for a Mona
then pulled 77 FRIGGIN PULLS for Cyno
I JUST GOT CYNO WOOO
that was quick, jesus
I had no pity along with a guaranteed and just wanted kuki. Ended up getting cyno my first 10 pull when I was saving up for someone else, now having a 50/50 😐. time to build him ty for the video
Same thing happened to me😭
don't pull for a 4* when the 5* is someone you don't want smh
@@tang3151 L
I used my pitty for tighnari. Today was the day I gonna get another 5 star cause I was at 80 pulls again. Would you believe it. I lost the pitty and pulled tighnari again lmao🤣🤣
I did one multi and got two of him so I'm happy
casually playing ffxiv music while showing off new builds for cyno? sign me up you got a new sub lol
THE INTRO - 💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love these video's!! I will use it to build my Cyno, thank you :D (will you do one for Candace too by any chance? :D)
