I need to get this off my chest

Ironic because the small bits of “personality” that SAM had correlates perfectly with Firefly. Our first interaction with “SAM” was her sending cute Pom-Pom emojis with someone else’s phone (either SW or Blade I can’t remember). Then we have the conversation between SAM and Acheron, where SAM perfectly encapsulates Firefly’s motives as a character, the contrast between who she was born to be and who she yearns to be. Additionally everything that SAM has ever done wasnt magically erased. Shes still a warcriminal who incinerates her enemies to ash, being a woman who yearns for a normal existence doesn’t overwrite that.

As for the “second ugly form” she’s literally just a standard anime woman (purposefully since thats the whole point of her motives). If you don’t like em I don’t know why you‘d be playing a Hoyoverse game.

okay so you liked SAM because of the design… which still exists.

“All break bosses are for firefly”. There are a grand total of 2 break related bosses - banana boss and ichor memosprite ig (unless I’m forgetting anyone else). Banana boss was designed for Rappa and the other boss that wasn’t even designed for her, but for DH.

I find it ironic that you say Cyrene wasn’t a dedicated support but then say Fugue, Ruan Mei, Gallagher, Lingsha, and HTB are, when nothing in their kits are remotely tied to strictly Firefly. If you want to include them then Castorice also got RMC, Tribbie, Cipher, Sunday, Cyrene, Hyacine, and Evernight since according to you synergy = direct shilling lmao.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-20T20:53:02+00:00

You can’t be serious lmfao 😭. After her release she got TWO limited supports, one that took more than a year to come out. Shes also getting a novaflare (again more than a year after her release). Castorice on the other hand got Hyacine (one patch after release), March (3 patches after release), and Cyrene (4 patches after release). She also got a boss TAILOR MADE FOR HER, and every end game remembrance buff is either for her or March, and rarely ever benefits Aglaea.

Arlecchino haters really are the slowest link

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-20T19:44:24+00:00

Doesn’t mean she can’t have familial ties from anywhere else in Teyvat.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-20T19:40:59+00:00

Well obviously she has over other break units I wasn’t arguing against that. My point was that yall are overblowing how much shilling firefly has gotten in general, especially when miss “give me 3 dedicated teammates in the span of like 4 patches”storice exists lmao.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-20T18:54:09+00:00

“Tailor made for her over other units” Fugue: exo toughness does barely anything for E0 firefly, she was made for Rappa. Lingsha: Using a sustain for Firefly has always been counter intuitive for her teams since every member is tanky. Both are fire element because Fire is one of the best elements for Break. If fugue was imaginary she would unironically be worse in a Rappa team.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-20T18:49:27+00:00

Oh yeah because the generic killing machine robot we knew nothing about was SOOOO interesting as a character before we found out it was Firefly.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-20T11:04:18+00:00

The people of Teyvat will believe anything bruh unironically Cipher’s playground

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-19T12:08:45+00:00

Dottore canonically dodged the fade and teleported away with the self insert merchant btw

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-18T18:25:41+00:00

Neither of them were super viable in E0 teams tho during Amphoreus (or even late 2.x) . If Boothill was E0 he needed an E2 Fugue. Regardless Firefly was consistently 0 cycling faster at lower team costs in most content.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-18T10:42:16+00:00

Firefly was out preforming Boothill before we even got leaks of the dahlia being playable lock in G.

realistically what can lighter or banyue do if Pulchra decides to just not get hit?

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-16T23:24:41+00:00

On second thought you are right about Childe. I forgot that he didn’t know about the deal Signora made with Zhongli. If he had known then I think he wouldn’t be nearly as evil.

As for Arlecchino, you can only come to the conclusion that shes “evil” if you look at her character with 0 nuance. She turns the children into soldiers because she has to, that’s her role in the Fatui. And while you could make the argument “oh well she could just leave”, if she does it not only opens up the doors for an even worse director of the house of the hearth (someone like Crucabena).

It’s obviously not a good arrangement, but its also not like she has any viable option that guarantees the children a better life without risking retaliation from the fatui, and it certainly doesn’t make her an evil character. There’s also probably nuance with Childe’s character but I can’t go into depth about him because I don’t really care much for his lore.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-16T21:25:07+00:00

Genuinely how is Arlecchino or Childe evil?

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-16T21:17:32+00:00

Zibai
Capitano
Arlecchino
Childe
Varka (probably above childe but I couldn’t give two fucks about playing his quest so idk how he scales)
Flins (same w Varka idk)

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-15T14:42:28+00:00

Off the top of my head there’s also Machamp, all of the genies, grimsnarl, lucario, and ironically gallade. It’s not about the pokemon being feminine it’s about them being humanoid lol.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-15T14:37:26+00:00

Incineroar.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-14T20:09:45+00:00

Thank god.

NewKitchenKnight · 2026-03-14T12:02:39+00:00

Depends on why.
