Not really, her slots are worse for most content, her skill is worse, her arts gives the same amount of art gen and a slightly larger barrier. Her abilities are also nothing to boast about, they're definitely not the worst but also not great. Really the main thing she has going for her is her true weapon and her better nuking potential, her true arts is great for nuking and her True Weapon gives her a lot of sustainability, making up for her slots. Could I see her being a bit better than Weaver? Sure, I personally feel they would both work about equally well but I could see her slipping just a bit ahead of Weaver. But in a whole other league of Weaver? If that's what you think you must just be kidding yourself because she really isn't all that much better than weaver
That’s fantastic, absolutely agree. But after using her and seeing her used multiple times, she doesn’t feel all that much better than other alternatives. She is good, better than most units, I’d put her in the top few units in the game. But she’s not so astoundingly and absurdly good she blows everyone else out of the water, she makes runs faster and can give you more consistency, but she’s not completely meta changing like Thetis, Mako, and other units. I do think she’s better than weaver, but I think some people slightly overvalue her and think of her as this send all that can carry every stage in the game Also umm... She increases damage to enemy 30%, Ashe does by 50%, 30% is not more than 50%...
If I don’t get Weaver by the time she comes to Global, I’m getting Sistina. Sistina looks just as cool as Weaver therefore I require one of them or I’ll shoot myself I mean go to sleep. Plus Sistina is Earth I have more Earth units so maybe I can di Earth ruins
So uh it seems that the banner is useless in my case my luck is not the best it’s ok but I’m not guaranteed Sistina so I’ll wait for the legendary banner probably gonna summon for Liza and Luahn if their banners are good
@@Waludalf the thing with saitama tho, even tho his multiplier is 80k it doesn't really get a buff in anyway like every other true art but he's still strong only for like a nuke team tho
@Charlie Grace Ah yeah I got too excited and missed the + somehow... Phew... That would have been too broken... Still, an instant 20 arts and a decent barrier are pretty darn good.
@@moebiusjdx7288 Most of the stuff she does is what Weaver does as well. They just threw better numbers (3k shield > 2k shield, higher arts dmg) on her, a lot more stuff to play with (True Weapon, More passives, Dual Arts) and faster animations. Powercreep yey. Still like Weaver more. He is designed pretty simple (2 passives that other units have as well, straight forward abilities without fancy conditions, buffs go instant (exept the water res shred... that´s going after the first hit. Which is in fact about as fast as Fen´s True Art Arts gen) but yet so effective they copied their unit and buffed it up to match the powercreep.
@@rider4523 I hope you do know that she does not only has her arts but also a true arts, and that s what makes her far more appealing than weaver. Try to look at the bigger picture and not only the part you want to see...
@@Rexodia Sistina TA: Increase all allies dmg by 100%, reduce dmg res by 30% 42k dmg Weaver TA: Increase all allies crit dmg by 50% reduce water res by 30% 31k dmg She does not work much differently at all. Spam arts for sustain and arts gen, TA for Nuke. Yes there are slight differences but over all Sistina´s kit is just a superior version of Weavers kit My point still stands. Yes she is "more appealing". She just got the same kit with powercreep numbers and more stuff to play with. Unit wise I still like Weaver more. From his design to purpose. I like Weaver more because 1 he looks like a cooler version of Roy, 2 his kit at the time had nothing similar and complements really nicely with WMelia/Vox, 3 for art spamming he was a choice general unit yes, but for the full potential of his kit he was a mono water unit, 4 he has intended shortcomings (slow animations, reliant on other units to give him those crits, no over the top damage numbers even for his time, he has no additional possibilities of dmg mitigation apart from his shield). Compare that to what they made out of Sistina: Buffs apply to everyone and everything. Animations are faster, she has that additional defense slot and while that might not be as good for art gen it doesn´t need to be cause there are a ton of reasonably potent to great attackers with added arts gen left and right (Dfen,Delia, Bw, Swick, Norn, Emira). The issue is that Sistina has no real shortcomings which need to be complimented by other units. She is waaay to choice general and too op to fullfill what makes this game so interesting: Niches, interaction and gimmicks Great examples: Alvina/Selia/Herck freeze strats, both Melias for timestop, Roy/Satsuki for Badoul nuking strats, Saitama for uncritable stages (YGaming showcases a bunch of interesting stuff too e.g. against Vitz), Sonije is another example of great design, Benimaru for magic nukes (he himself isn´t capable of much w/o Millim + Bw), Mamori Nuke Strats, Wargul/Est Break Nukes, Zeela against high evasion stuff, DMarzex or Dark Ninja (forgot his Name) against anti crit stuff and so on. Sistina doesn´t fullfill an interesting niche. She´s just your typical op gatcha unit cashgrab that hurts the game balance in my eyes. Unlike Vox or the Blood Knights in general her kit is designed in a way which can´t really be countered by stage design: Demon Killer, Water Res, Crit Res, High Phys res (See Ganan or Vitz for the last 2). Sistinas types of buffs just grant her a "do whatever you want and you´ll be fine"-pass. 100% dmg buff and dmg increase buff is nothing which really can be countered by design. Even if you give the boss 100% earth res or whatever she still amplifies all allies dmg by an insane amount or generates a good amount of arts while still having tanklike properties at the same time because of that defense slot. If the game is just about having the latest units it´s just another boring cashgrab gatcha, so basically dead cause niches are just not cutting the pure power of powercreep anymore. Or do you think the game is heading in a good direction when the possibilities to clear hard content is basically locked behind a very specific set of new units all the time? (Looking at Delia, Thetis stuff). At least Delia has that long ramp up time and slow animation as a small downside to her and Thetis relies on others / high hit counts for his own art gen. Yeah... that was a long rant. Tl:Dr : Sistina still a Weaver Ripoff and don´t like her for what she does to the game.
if you are refering to the picuter of her in the quest that is coming up then it is just basicly saying witch units story it is and the first one happens to be sistinas/cestina story if i am not wrong (correct me if i am wrong)
@@arcana3950 nah doubt that do you know about the side quest where Vox picture was on or berwicks? they are more saying that it will be about that unit in that chapeter
Jen is a woman as far as i know, which boss do you exactly mean? If its an awk ivy boss, try to use aristella as your status ailment and healing unit against the poisen, 1 art gauge buffer like priestess, fen or sonije (there are others as well and for the remaining 2 full fire dmg units like idk ragna, clyde, benimaru, ryouko matoi ect. It also depends on what equip and units you have ^^
Yes but i think it will be tweak, also it has been spoiled on of queens banner gs video that Veronica and Sistina Tw were shown indicating they are gonna come but very late

Vox.. What Vox? Give me Sistina already!
Seriously, this is going totally nuts!
Today’s the day
TA after TA...
Wow, looks like I need her in JP. Thanks for the review
Not sure why they changed her name to cestina on global but it’s whatever
This one is really like weaver so i need this to my team earth❤❤❤
Would she work on my triple vox team
Xéphen probably try it if you got her
Have s.mira, fen, norn and cestina on the same team and gotta say I'm loving it
I can’t believe that I never heard of this before. I’m totally late to the party
I come for grand summoners content, and leave with that and a playlist
Earth Weeaaver!

Thank you.
20 art gauge and 3000 damage barrier thats nuts :o Everyone use her normal art mostly
Did I read that right? 20 art guage per second for 20 seconds?
We might get her in global 2021
Ashe, Spy Fen, Wargul, and any dark unit of choice
(I just want see how this team will function vividly)
I cant wait for dual arts to hit global
If I don’t get Weaver by the time she comes to Global, I’m getting Sistina. Sistina looks just as cool as Weaver therefore I require one of them or I’ll shoot myself I mean go to sleep. Plus Sistina is Earth I have more Earth units so maybe I can di Earth ruins

Got both of em 👍
She looks like she’d go well with Sakura Mira
I want dis unit more than Vox now :0
She's just a better weaver..
JYPESMHB I like how the characters looks and how the arts look. Idrc about the rest
But true dat
Holy fucking shit, Fen died again
she's like norn but way more op...
Ill have over 200 crystals to use to try and pull her once she comes out and i hope I can get her and her tw
WHY DID I KNOW SOMETHING LIKE THIS WAS GONNA HAPPEN
DUAL ARTS I MEAN 3 FULL ARTS GAUGE AND THEN ONLY 90K% DMG SAITAMA WITH TA DEALS 80K% WTH
@@Waludalf the thing with saitama tho, even tho his multiplier is 80k it doesn't really get a buff in anyway like every other true art but he's still strong only for like a nuke team tho
She's busted, I want her
Ur vids always help me and the guides are really good. Is this going to be the new global unit
People in discord (and on jp tier list) were saying she A-tier at best and you come in with initial rating of S-tier. Wonder how it will change.
well she’s SS-Tier now
She’s S tier she gives support and does dmg idk who said she’s A tier but they are WRONG
What are the best units to pair her with?
Thanks!
I want her to come to global so badly
Well look like she's coming soon
Well god. Better save my gems.
How many do you have now?

100%damage buff????!!! Thats illegal
You think that's illegal. Go see the equips the Rivieras have
TJW226 Riviera is a glass cannon that’s expected for her Sistina is a Sub Attacker so 100% is... new I guess
Sistina reach to global, it seams that she will be a free unit to get, so mono earth just became the bes art gen of all the game in global xd

What is the full name of the song and who sing it ? Any one can answer .
Rip Fen didn't survived :0. Definitively want her tho
Legends always die carrying the team
What boss is that
Hold up
You guys got sistina 7 months ago??
What’s the recommended equip?
Earth Vox ?
More like Earth Weaver
Is she really good if you partner her with the holy trinity?
Of course
Video!
So are the dual units a Must have?
not as much as the KoBs but theyre certainly stronger than mostly all the other units released since.
what's the song?
So this hasn’t came to global yet or is just in Japan?
Shes comming on the 23
Hey brother, how to defeate giant boss ivy ?
I am a new player
Jen is a woman as far as i know, which boss do you exactly mean? If its an awk ivy boss, try to use aristella as your status ailment and healing unit against the poisen, 1 art gauge buffer like priestess, fen or sonije (there are others as well and for the remaining 2 full fire dmg units like idk ragna, clyde, benimaru, ryouko matoi ect. It also depends on what equip and units you have ^^
Ryuko matoi is good for it?
Does she replace ashe? Is he powercreeped now?
Vinity Bot no
The powercreeped one is more like swick lol
Yes
What makes sistina op?
Bro how to fast regen of art?
Is this gonna be a global unit?
Yes but i think it will be tweak, also it has been spoiled on of queens banner gs video that Veronica and Sistina Tw were shown indicating they are gonna come but very late
Wth dual arts???
She's more powerful than vox?
Dps wise yes
In everything that vox does no
What Vox is stronger dps wise too crit ignores defense
I got her for free lol idk how to use her move with Ladakh tho
Much powercreep lol
Nothing is truly power creep after Knights of Blood.
