The Downside of the Buff
So having seen the new buffs for Cyno my enthusiasm and hype has quickly petered out.
Don't get me wrong I am so happy to see Cyno getting any sort of attention from Hoyo, but I honestly would've rather waited a year or two more (after Liyue + Inazuma) for a Sumeru Hexerei buff than taken a buff for a reaction no one built him in.
The way that Cyno is built now, aside from the mini ult every few seconds, is essentially completely throwing out his old teams in favor of new ones. If his main source of direct damage is a reaction he has never built before, he can no longer make use of overload, any direct dendro reaction, lunar or electro charged, or any of the blooms
That essentials devalues any of his previous characters we as Cyno mains have farmed, built, and planned for over the past years. I feel incredibly bittersweet about the whole thing.
I'm happy to see this happen for him, but it being at the cost of him forgetting all the friends we made along the way feels like my 10+ 5*s worth of characters he worked with mean next to nothing now.
Is everyone still as excited or is there any trepidation from other Cyno mains?
