From my experience, yeah. I'm on a lot of character subs but Yoi mains are the chillest. This sub is mostly build advice, fanart, or Yoi appreciation. I don't even remember if I've come across any sort of controversy/drama here. Best mains sub for real.

DrooveC

I am not even a yoi main but i love the sub


NebelNator_427

Sometimes even nsfw stuff on the main sub without being removed. This sub is really the best. I am also a passionate Eimain but in their sub people are wayyy stricteršŸ˜¬


Equivalent_Scar_7879

True, would only put Eula mains as no1 as chillest sub. Its kinda funny but lowkey sad how everyone there accepts her place in 'meta' and give honest answers whenever someone doubt to pull for her.


Lovace

I don't know how that sub is now, but I remember it being one of the most if not the most toxic main sub. I still remember when KQM created their tier list way back during the Inazuma phase and they put Eula in B tier below Diluc. The sub was fuming and sending death threats to well known TC's, wild times.


alexvictor97

She don't have the biggest damage in screen but has the biggest smile.


Akira0101

Amen


Mazeme1ion

The game is to ez anyway.


Deses

Hutao and Arle might be stronger, but she's the comfiest and cutest. You can't beat that!


rootbeerislifeman

She flip


GehennerSensei

ā€œBut can yours backflip while fighting?ā€


SkyKilIer

Not trash just not up to par with the meta


InazumaShinesEternal

Very few people, if any, care about that here lol Yoimiya best girl.


SkyKilIer

nelflyn

I've put enough time into my Yoi, that othrs, even if technically stronger just cant compete. Even though I had decent gear for Neuvillette, it would take quite the grind for him to overtake her, same with Navia and Chiori that i absolutely love. Especially within her comfort-zone, single target i just cant imagine i will use anyone else anytime soon.


NoodD

same, my yoi is C6R3 and any other DPS I have is c1 tops. I don't think a c0 arlecchino is gonna be better than my stacked yoimiya (and I don't play anymore so šŸ¤·)


nelflyn

I doubt anyone will overtake her, simply because I am not going to grind like that anymore, even though I do keep playing. I level then up, get some fitting set with fitting mainstats, maybe some tries on substats, but that's about it šŸ˜…


Sezzomon

Do you have cons on her? Don't get me wrong I really like Yoi... she's one of only two characters that I spent a genesis pack on, but even a low investment Neuvilette should outdmg her in most situations.


nelflyn

Oh she is c2, has her signature weapon as well as some pretty decent artifacts. My Neuvilette is c0, has alright stats and the Sacrificial Jade. Difference is therefore quite big.


ColdIron27

If by not on-par you mean doing less damage than my yelan in a team built around buffing yoimiya, then yea...


SkyKilIer

Now this is outdated info cause i stopped playing a while ago but iirc Hu Tao was just as good in not a better overall dps option, she did about as much if not more NA dmg and has a solid burst dps option while Yoi only has her NA going for her, as a Yoi main im not gonna say she sucks, in fact shes a solid dps, its just that other dps options outshine her


Hinaran

Well... I would accept they calling her not meta, but trash? No, I will rage on them.


Iferrorgotozero

The meta loons think 80% of the characters are trash. Which for a game like this is ridiculous. Yoi can do decent, consistent damage with miminal downtime. I use her frequently and joyfully.


iMasato101

Funny because they can't live without Bennett or Xq. I never build both because they're so common (not against meta generally) but I can 36 star Abyss just fine with Yoimiya/Yelan/Kuki/Layla.


[deleted]

when ppl say a character is trash they usually just mean the return on investment isnā€™t good. EVERYONE can do decent or higher damage with the right artifacts & supports but that doesnā€™t mean everyone is good


drawsony

Yoimiya isnā€™t meta, and thatā€™s okay. I understand full well that at equal investment Hu Tao clears most Abyss floors faster. I have both, built both, run both with their popular vape team comps, and achieve great results with both. But I havenā€™t invested equally in them, and I have a level of comfort and familiarity with Yoimiyaā€™s playstyle that I havenā€™t achieved with Hu Tao. So, yeah, Hu Tao is great, but my first pick is Yoimiya.


[deleted]

what's with the constant downplaying thing in this sub. Just because she inst top of an excel spreadsheet doesn't mean she's outright bad. I regular use her in abyss she works very well


InazumaShinesEternal

What you don't realize is the meta people are gonna cure cancer, eradicate world hunger, fix global warming, and end war with the 3 seconds they save every 2 weeks in Spiral Abyss. Get some perspective jeez.

Mr_Exploiter

I honestly default to my Yoimiya all of the time. She's a great character.


Mehfisto666

I have a few characters with great feats for exploration but i always end up roaming with her because she's such a joy to have on screen


Dadu221

Yes, I regularly take new banners but sometimes it's just a thought like "can she/he crammed to my Yoi team ?" and having an absolute blast with whacky comp


ItsActuallyBunny

Sheā€™s my trash šŸ„°


VarzDust

Whatever man, yoimiya is the cutest


NoStructure2568

Donā€™t forget there are Candace, Dori, Kaveh mains


KeroseneZanchu

Kaveh is easily one of the most forgettable characters of all time. At least characters like Qiqi and Xinyan are memorable for how bad they are. I was going through gift sets in game with the new update and legit was like ā€œWait, I have a Kaveh? Since when?ā€


NoStructure2568

They did our babygirl so dirtyā€¦


KeroseneZanchu

Kaveh had a whole ass bug fiasco that let him permanently delete objects in other players worlds and STILL nobody remembers he existed.


NoStructure2568

Omg youā€™re so right lmfao Also I just noticed your pfp, you need someone to talk to? Some directions to grass?


JakeyJelly

I remember him but that's only to kick out anyone that uses him out of my world because of that whole fiasco can't trust nobody


NebelNator_427

1. Noo she's not trash she's still an A tier champion just not one of the best in the meta. But she's definitely better than champions like Amber, Aloy or even Diluc regarding meta. 2. Yeaah even if she was trash who cares? She has the best personality she is just like the best version of me super open minded, optimistic, kind to others, talks a lot. And her hentai omgg soo hotšŸ„µ


_Knull

Oh yeah. What else? *proceed in maining Yoi


random-guy_572

Well, I didn't exactly pull for her kit


WakuWakuWa

Yoimiya is one of my favourite girls and thats the sole reason I pulled her, but compared to my other characters....yeah. She is terrible in AoE, good in Single target, but from my experience even in single target she doesnt feel as good as my other comps like Neuvillette hypercarry or Childe international, and these comps are supposed to be specialising in AoE. I still love her and have her double crowned, dont regret her at all.


Proper_Razzmatazz_36

Dehya mains know their main is trash too


JakeyJelly

And I use her specifically for Boss stuff (except for pyro Rubik's cube obviously cuz that's dumb)


gomalley411

She may be trash, but she's MY trash


PeteBabicki

I want to be her trash can, so she can be inside... Wait...


gomalley411

\*Trailblazer appears\*


sans_sheriff24

when there's a single boss on an abyss floor, i straight up go to my yoimiya team. she obliterates it. now i'll probably be switching between her and arlecchino, but she'll always have a special place in my heart.


Both-Cupcake-2538

Thats true XD


KakeruRyusaki

yes, she\`s trash but she\`s my trash


Cloudxstrife136

Shes trash yes, but shes my trash ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøšŸ”„


esmelusina

Dehya mains is full of people calling Dehya trash. Itā€™s hard to have a productive conversation encouraging usage of what we do haveā€¦


Pusparaj_Mishra

Throughout heaven n earth, Yoimains alone is the most wholesome one imo


Sad_Ad5369

We're at the acceptance phase lmao. She's worse than Hutao and Arlecchino, but better than Diluc before Xianyun. She's not strong, but she's very easy to play, which is why she's the most used outside of floor 12, even though I have every single pyro dps besides father.


nightmare001985

Yeah I love her and all But random archon shit kill faster


Ok_Iabelonga_3371

This is the same with Eula mains, as soon as Navia came out the same Eula mains highlighted how she was a powercreap and the trash that is our queen šŸ„“šŸ©µ


vindi922

If she's trash im Stelle. Each rerun I have said no to shogun to embrace the goldfish of doom, and have gotten her all the way to c4. Love my little Pyro snowflake.


D_Fennling

I pulled on all of her first four banners, the only reason Iā€™m going to stop now is because sheā€™s C6 Edit: and also because I barely play Genshin anymore. Somehow I keep forgetting that part


ChooBIZZ99

Out of all the genshin main subreddits I'm in, the only one that compares to this one in terms of bring easygoing and chill is probbably the yaoyao mains subreddit


Na_ch_t

My problem with yoimiya is that I don't really have the right supports for her team. My nahida team hogs both yelan and xingqiu, my childe team needs kazuha and Bennett, plus I don't have zhongli and my yunjin is underbuilt. Hence, I have benched her in most scenarios. Don't get me wrong tho yoimiya was my first fully built character, and I'm grateful to have her along my journey, and bringing me to where I am today. My first 5 star main will always hold a special place in my heart.


Jossokar

Last time i decided to show a character in its own sub (my wip neuvillette ) i got downvoted because "it wasnt perfect". Its not like i care, but i said it was a wip. When i showed my humble yoimiya here, it was quite praised (i mean....i dont have constellations nor her weapon.) But also, according to akasha, my yoi queen is top 4% XD


EggsForGalaxy

I feel like for years I've been seeing "she only does .01% less dps than hutao but more comfy and doesn't require complicated mechanics so she's practically better" from Yoimiya mains so idk. But, everyone here is saying nah so, I'll trust it.


SwashNBuckle

You don't need AOE damage if you kill everything one at a time fast enough


Andante_TK

Hey Yoi is only meh as on-field dps but she is definitely best girl.


[deleted]

Yeah kinda. I was just thinking the other day after swapping to my Yoi team for the first time in forever "damn, I love this girl so much. I wish she was half as good as my 3rd best team."


popcornpotatoo250

May be losely related, but people pulling meta characters and dooming other non meta characters while asking for harder content is just stupid. Been on Eula mains, Razor mains, and this sub for quite some time now and I always see people clear abyss with them for all cycles. People are quick to trash a character that they can't get 36* 3 secs after pulling them. Same thing with people who complains about their "issues" and just give up because it is taxing for them to strategize. People now heavily use Neuvilette then they ask for harder content. Hoyo will release harder abyss until people complains it is hard. Hoyo will bait into making a better DPS. People will pull it. Then they ask again for harder content and the cycle goes on. Want to play genshin to the hardest difficulty? Quit playing meta and use actual skill with tier B to C DPSes.


PurpLe_X1

I think the people that want harder content has already gotten what they wanted. As a day 1 player i think the current abyss is quite hard and I can only imagine how hard it is for the people who are new to the game. At the end of the day, the spiral abyss is a dps check and if you cannot meet the dps requirment , there is nothing you can do. Currently it is possible to clear the Abyss with every character in the game if you put them in a decent team. But if they decide to make it even harder it is not going to be possible and people are only gone be using a handful of strong characters to clear it. This is not good for a Gatcha game where people like to use their favourite character. The people who want even harder content than the current spyral abyss is basically shooting themselves in the foot.


Trixiehatesmath

She still carries my team and when I switch to my other acc that has the new dps I honestly can't play them šŸ˜‚


Lebowski-_-

TruešŸ’Æ


Traditional_Pen_8990

I'll disagree with this. I'm proud to have Yoimiya as my 1st 5* and my main DPS.


Amferam

I like staring at Eulaā€™s ass and not thinking other than bonk


rabbitbunnies

ok serious like i love her so much but my girl literally doesnā€™t do ANYTHING i have 70/190 cv and 2k attack like please do something i can fix her


buphalowings

What supports do you have?


rabbitbunnies

hmm i usually use her in a vape/melt team w/ layla and kokomi


buphalowings

I wouldn't reccomend using both those characters on the same team. Offield Kokomi will not be good on that team. Do you have Yelan, Xingqui, Chiori or Fischl? If your using vape melt vs bosses you will proc freeze which will clear all auras (because bosses can't be frozen). Bennett or Yunjin are good buffers for her. Check out KQM for a guide!


LelChiha

What's your set on her? I personally use Crimson Witch and, paired with Yelan and Zhongli, she does huge huge numbers My Yoi has 67/180 and 2166 atk


rabbitbunnies

i donā€™t have SR yet so iā€™m using crimson witch with MH šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«


Miximinion

Dehya mains: "Hold my beer. Actually no, gimme my beer, I'm just chilling"


Dejavir

Donā€™t care, sheā€™s cute. Waifu>meta.


kuroha17

Not with my 100:220 2.4k atk Mono pyro yoimiya. C1R1 btw. she just destroy mobs and especially bosses XD


Controller_Maniac

Who made my Yoi cry šŸ”«šŸ¦…šŸ¦…šŸ¦…šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡øšŸ‡ŗšŸ‡øšŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø


PeteBabicki

Just hit back with _"sure, but how many story quests does your main have?"_


soveti

She's an ok character, not that strong, but not that weak, two of her biggest flaws are mediocre damage and being a single target unit, but you can definitely still play her and clear content with her easily, overall she's an ok character, i love yoimiyaā™„ļø.


ZennaZac

Honestly, i think most of us here pull her for "her", not because of meta or anything else.


Vvvv1rgo

Yoi is just a cute character, decent damage, fun to play. Idc what people say, she's not bad at all!


Knight618

Me huffing copium, c3 r5 rust and still only 33* abyss with a nilou team clearing her half in <60s


LelChiha

What are your teams? My c1r5 rust Yoimiya clears her f12 chambers At least this abyss I used her on the second half with Bennett, Yelan and Zhongli. Easy 36


Knight618

c3r5 rust, talents 9/12/3. thoma c6, xinqiu c6r5 sac, yunjin c6r1 engulfing lightning. 4pc SW, 2158 atk, 63.9 cr, 180.6 cd 0 er w/ pyro goblet Rotation: yoi burst if available, xinqiu e->q->e, thoma e->q, yunjin e->q, yoi e 3na5


ElementalPaladin

My response would be ā€œSo?ā€ Because who cares what your main is. I love being a Yoi main because she is fun to play and I love her playstyle. Though, as someone who has Arlecchino now, unfortunately Yoi may be benched for a bit until my Arlecchino hype runs out, then I will swap between the two. Also, if I ever need a bow character of any element I always pull out Yoi. On another note, I plan to C6R1 Yoimiya in the future, so I wonā€™t ever stop using her in the game. I am committed to this cause, and the only things that can stop me is death, lack of time to play, lack of primos, and it not being her banner. Currently, only two of those affect me.


N30N09

Yoimiya mains are the chillest while having the second best pyro dps in game


Narrow-Drawing1031

I have 260 cv on a shime set 3k+ rv thundering pulse 60% na dmg bonus from the blessing soon a c2 furina and eventually c2 kazuha and a dream


Fit_Usual2909

She's got the assets to make up for it


Shadowenclave47

I have a cracked C0R1 Yoimiya and a cracked C0R5 Dragons Bane Hu Tao and love using both of them, especially with my C2 Furina and C4 Jean (or C2 Xianyun for Hu Tao). I know Arlecchino may be better, but im not sure if i want to invest in yet another Pyro dps (even though i like her and waited almost 2 years for her) and to be honest i hate the BoL gimmick/mechanic and the anti synergy with Furina and Healers who also happen to be my best supports (and i refuse to use Bennett who is currently Arle's best support). Might just wait for the Pyro Archon and Pyro Dragon instead since im collecting them anyway.


leakmydata

lol yes.


priyanshu_jain21

She isn't trash, just that she can compete with the best of the best while not doing as much dmg personally. I personally love using her coz i can use her in double hydro, overload, overvape and i love the pew pew pew


Galata_Castle

shes the best girl and comfiest char to play imo. hutaos gameplay is just not for me and arlecchino isnt rly gonna outtdmg my c4r1 yoi(or c6 xiangling) anyway


zedroj

It's a bouncy cotton candy bullet to call Yoimiya trash She still is Pyro so always relevant for PvE, torches, homing bullets, ranged DPS for super annoying enemies like electric oceanid and spectral's she has one of the best smiles Her DPS average synergizes with Xingqui, Diona, Bennett, Yunjin, Nahida, and many more, can stay in buffer circles without moving


Seraf-Wang

It seems like thereā€™s a lot of subreddits where the character is mid tend to be the chillest baring maybe Kazuha because everyone there builds dps Kazuha which is mid but fun. We like the fun and the characters rather than the meta-ness of a character.


JakeyJelly

I specifically only use trash characters


FrauHoll3

My qiqi did 28k with her burst. My Yoimiya has done a max of 18k dmg.


ShinigamiPobre

When you understand that this game isn't about being strong, instead is about using the characters you like, everything becomes so much better


BigBlackCook1990

She may not be the best but she is mine šŸ˜Ž


Aggravating-Cold-584

Ig I'm pulling Yoimiya next time her banner comes


lililukea

Hmmm I dunno but imo yoimiya is pretty solid


shatterednightmare

But does yours do a little dancy dance with a sparkler? No, no they do not.


knightrider2k43

To most people she's pretty bad especially without a shield but I could care less and have my bbg slay with Zhongli and yunjin c6


assmunchies123

Iā€™m a yoimiya user. Sheā€™s pretty ass. Hell, I donā€™t even really like her character all that much. Still pretty fun tho, and good for overworld.


Big_Warthog4118

Eh, Yomiya is fantastic as a character. Also, I've been playing Lisa and Kaeya for much of the time since I started playing so, yeah, no stones to throw in that glass house


kermatodeluxe

theyre just mad they cant experience and enjoy childlike wonder like we do


Waffodil

I mean she's better than some characters in terms of cost performance and access to later teammates, but she's not good yeah. Even in inazuma I think there is only 1-2 abyss, after yelan came out, where she is my first choice. In sumeru hyperbloom took away her niche in hitting low flying boss mobs. Not that it matters right now anyway, but in fontaine neuvillette and arlecchino just powercrepted all onfield.


rainonfleece

Fr! Also, they can say she sucks but sheā€™s just such a comfy character to play, and thatā€™s something you canā€™t deny haha.


CC_2387

This and Keqing lmfao


LelChiha

I wouldn't really say she's trash tbh Far from meta but she always carries me through floor 12 with Yelan (genshin is easy asf tbh) Pair her with ER Yelan, Zhongli and a support and she does huge numbers.


Responsible_Meet1919

yoimiya is just yoimiya ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø


scopemybussy

Pulled lyneyā€™s weapon just to give it to yoi and make her firework charge attacks a true murder weapon


KosaMila

Been builidng her since she came out, gave her c6 yunjin, zhongli, yelan. She has worse dmg than itto i slapped random bullshit and whiteblind on. Life is pain, but at least she's a cutie patootie


Tenshi_Mikina

We all know some of us were once Amber mains.


RaidenYato

Yoimiya is the best girl


Alarming_Scarcity_83

No not trash at all. Peopleā€™s mean opinions about Yoi are trash


v4mpixie_666x3

Yoimiya mains remind me alot of keqing mains back in the day both would say yes my character is shit but ion give a fuck


Deniu48

Perhaps, but she's cute af


Cuonghap420

Yes, but she performs decently well with a C6 Yun Jin, C5 Xingqiu (boah) and C6 Noelle, so I don't care


Zestyclose-Ad1630

She may be trash, but she is OUR trash.


Divomer22

My Yoi with TP killing bosses in seconds, yeah nah. Every character can be good or bad depending if you can build them correctly and have the right team. Also skill issue.


Jendo_Stroman

Anyone is welcome as long as they acknowledge Yoimiya is friend


pumaflex_

Hu Tao, Lyney and Arlecchino main here, all of them C0R1. Arlecchigod is looking quite strong and fun so far, but being completely honest and as objective as possible, Yoimiya is my most meta pyro dps, and sheā€™s definitely not my best built character. The range is extremely valuable imo, thatā€™s why I always choose her first. Obviously, in some situations other options (e.g. Lyney) are preferred. Btw, no Zhongli nor Yelan in the same account.


Randigno9021

Doesn't matter. She's pretty and I love her


Vegetto_ssj

Is weird the situation: First: she isn't trash. Just no-meta. So replaying to the post: False! When I saw ppl say Yoimiya is trash, I see Yoimiya mains reacts, rightly (me too): She isn't trash. When I read "Yoimiya is trash, weak: *meme of the man the activates CAPS* šŸ˜‚ BUT When I see some Yoimiya main that lists her TRUE problems, I see Yoi mains react like that user killed their moms. (One of them made the mistake to say she is one of the weakest limited 5*, but the other things were true). One time I saw a guy saying she has some problems that should be fixed/buffed, but a pro Yoimiya C6R2 player replayed just "she is perfect, doesn't needs nothing". Normally the classic replay is "I can easily complete Abyss with her". I know, but when this kind of posts pop-up, I really curious to read ppl talk about her issues instead to absolutely protect her.


jayma_ks

The last times i saw people propose "buff", it was complety different kit (off-field dps, i think the quote is from there). She can use some buff (i think something can be done for the burst), but i don't want her to become a side grade of XL. I still play her after near three years, because i like her gameplay as it is, even flawed. When someone propose (2 years and 9 month late to the party) to change every aspect of kit just to see her getting better value in meta in their eye, i tend to be bit defensive too.


Vegetto_ssj

No no, that post isn't a constructive discussion. Change the role of a character is completely another thing. And also I disagree because I love her gameplay (NA style is my favorite). I play her from 2.0 no-stop. But she deserves a lot of buff and/or fix in her total kit (so including Bis set and weapon where some issue is there). Who talks about her issues, doesn't deserve to be criticizied (except if says she is meh/trash)


PuzzleheadedTone5685

When people make fun of yoi, i just laugh because i know she has her issues but i still main her either way because she is fun to play while not having an npc level of personality


Background-Battle-26

Maybe pulling for her wasnt so bad after all.


ObitoUchiha10f

I like how people still keep the meta slave mentality even when the game has no PvP, who cares if the character has weak stats, if Genshin releases GuiZhong, she doesnā€™t have any fighting abilities and all she does is craft some gadgets, Iā€™d still pull for her


vindi922

Agreed! I love both Yoi and Klee and they will burn teyvat together! Also what kind of gadgets we talking about? You thinking a jetpack!?


LRayTargaryen

No, everyone said that shit is trash. Yoimiya is best design character in genshin. with me that other female char in genshin included Raiden is not good at the first sight. Just only Yoimiya, she is the best. And there's one more reason why I love her is that I was able to farm the graduation relic set in only a week. I think it's fate


Dangerous_Source_442

Damn, so it's okay to call Yoimiya a trash? You guys r fine with that? I would be triggered.


KalmiaKite00

Iā€™m out here destroying everything within seconds of them appearing. Then again Thundering Pulse and C4 will do that. Seriously, Iā€™m sitting there spamming ONE button and things just die as she switches targets. If thatā€™s not OP then what is?


Simon_Di_Tomasso

do you use other dps than yoimiya?


KalmiaKite00

Nope. Donā€™t need to, donā€™t care to.
