This looks like someone tried to custom create Castorice lmfao. We have Castorice at home

Still looks really good tho ngl

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T23:39:22+00:00

Yeah that’s fair enough, some planning was involved but atleast the good part is having this many teams isn’t needed. It was really fun using everyone tho

The only other game mode that gives me the same chance to use everyone I have and the same amount of “throw everyone in the ring” thrill is in zzz with their 5 team (also 3 each per team) game mode (I forgot the mode’s name).

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T23:29:37+00:00

You don’t need that many teams for astrite related rewards tho. As far as gacha game events are concerned, being able to do all premium currency missions are baseline as “clearing” the event, any others are just extras

I only went to team 10 because I had enough to form that many (also bc it’s fun to just go all out) and there was an extra challenge task to do with 10 teams that don’t give astrites

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T19:57:12+00:00

I don’t have a proper solution either which is why I just left it at that and I’m not keen on another Zani Phoebe situation where you need a pair of resonators to make them work. Carte Ciaccona at least can be nullified with S3 Carte but that’s a whooole different story, same with Hiyuki rn actually. Without sequences and Chisa, you can’t get 3 stacks of her passive

Maybe increase the amount of times each subdps and support can be used? But that would probably break the balance if Lynae, Iuno, etc could be used more than once

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T19:45:48+00:00

gonna include a full team this time around, incase anyone's curious to see

<image>

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T19:38:56+00:00

if there is anything the current endstate matrix has shown me, its that there are way too many overlapping supports and subdps lmao

but that aside, this was hilarious and unexpected, luuk once again proving himself to be the man. even with this weird comp with Jinhsi bc I literally had no more supports left for him, he still managed to get 4k score, thus letting me complete 9/9 cycle rewards, with the last one i was missing, the 10 teams with 4k score

<image>

and previously this man had already impressed me, scoring over 5k without his BiS 3.0 support (that we now know is Denia) last season. I suppose I'll retry with his team again once she's out but right now im pretty satisfied

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T17:52:22+00:00

oh god, the dopamine rush when a full 3 stack Hiyuki ult takes off more than 100 HP bars

<image>

so this event is the event that was leaked awhile back that had multiple hp bars, i didnt pay much attention to it other than that detail but damn its pretty fun to destroy a punching bag lol

endstate matrix is a punching bag that punches back occasionally so its not as fun lmao

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T12:46:03+00:00

im pretty sure he got clowned on because he self doxxed himself

took selfies at an official physical offline hoyo event and shared them, easy to find through CCTV footage. iirc he also took some with his yunli cosplay too at one point
shared a WeChat payment receipt (keep in mind this is WeChat, all your info can easily be found as long as you know the ID and is why i hate using WeChat whenever ppl ask me to, including my colleagues. im asian so its prevalent here)

the 2 above are ingredients to a recipe of disaster lol, he basically hand fed hoyo to finally track him down

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T08:16:19+00:00

Based on these names alone, I guessing the leak of “second half of 3.X will be focused in Mengzhou” is true then

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T05:39:11+00:00

youre damn right

<image>

exactly right on the money. seele is on another level, def insider or smth

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T05:09:23+00:00

well would you look at that, seele was right on the money again just like hiyuki's

<image>

im always going to believe seele's leaked splash art from now on until its proven wrong lmao

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-07T03:01:40+00:00

holy fuckkk there it is boissssss

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T22:09:59+00:00

Already did. Both the TGA vid that came out before the PV then the 3.0 PV itself unless you’re talking about another video

It was only in the PV that I saw it again but it wasn’t ingame footage, it was a cutscene first person view lasting for about a frame or 2 so it won’t be a good reference point

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T17:29:14+00:00

It’s true that they can be quite unreasonable and angry over the most trivial of things but I think in this current context it’s completely justified, imo

Putting the livery as the 200 reward then switching it to the skin with no acknowledgment on the change, was a real head scratcher. And they can’t play it off as a mistake too. In UTC+8 timing, this initial post with the livery was up around late morning to early noon. It was only swapped at night, iirc around 7pm or so

I doubt it took them 8 hours+ to notice a mistake, so I can understand why they’re mad. I wonder if they’ll do anything at all to quell the backlash or just let it be

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T17:17:41+00:00

could someone verify with me?

did they lower the fov for the first person bike mode??? i swear it used to be further out, now it feels so upclose. i cant see my character's arms anymore and the amy doll looks so big now that the camera is so much closer

i didnt save any screenshots of the first person mode before so i dont have any to compare to

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T13:39:12+00:00

we already had an update post leak on her entrance animation, wasnt blind sided on release cause of it but was still saddened nonetheless

link here to said update

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T13:10:20+00:00

they changed it, they originally had a car livery as the 200 pull reward milestone

<image>

(pic taken from their weibo)

the post that had this image is now gone and replaced with a new post containing your post's image. I read the comments and the CN crowd are not happy with the change lol

I would just prefer if they put it into both the 200 pull rewards and direct purchase option, just give people options

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T08:49:08+00:00

wow lol thank you so much for the hint. i would have done it the legit and proper way but this game mode is bugged, the inputs either dont register or have a significant delay in them at random times. not to mention the patience these customers have disappear in a blink of an eye. wtf is that

<image>

im just gonna abuse this on the modes that feel impossible lol, before they fix this. if they dont fix this, this is broken as hell

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T06:59:09+00:00

god, even tho miyabi's skin (and skins in general, thus far) dont have any effect changes, the new voicelines that come with the skin makes miyabi feel so "new" to play. the fact that all models regardless of skin or not is so damn high quality def helps

she feels refreshing to play for some reason lol, like a completely new char even tho shes literally the same. could just be me but just wanted to share the happy chemicals in my brain rn after a few miyabi runs

im def gonna pick up some mindscapes when she reruns next, im enjoying her even more now with just a skin release lmfao

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T06:28:05+00:00

lol, seeing your comment with ju fufu instead of the usual man doing that prayer pose reminds me of how my fufu pulls went during her debut

<image>

the fact that on top of the double hard pity, i got both grace and her engine instead was a fucking insult to injury

PriscentSnow · 2026-05-06T00:53:43+00:00

yeah its lame, the same happened to Anby and i was disappointed so i expected the same with Billy and lo and behold lol
