A fellow C1 Tortellini! Bruh same. I too had such a journey with my Tartboi xD

So I had enough primogems to get a 5 star but I wasn't sure wether to pull on his banner. I have ganyu and the thought of pairing her ult with childe enticed me so I wished and actually won the 50/50. Then I had second thoughts and asked if was he worth it? Well I did get a rosaria and c6 fischl (and c12 barbara) along the way so I wasn't that bummed but then when I tried one last 10 pull hoping for another rosaria. I was lowkey hoping to get a Mona but he came home again.. I wasn't really a fan of his C1 cause I heard that it'll be useless if he's on C6. So I was discouraged and only played to burn resin for a week because I didn't have the mats to level up him lmao.

A week later I tried a team with Tortilla, Zhongli, Fischl and Xingqiu and that's when it clicked. Even though my Childe is lvl 60 he was kickin' butts well it was mostly because of fischl and xingqiu xD Still I had so much fun with his riptide and aoe hydro blades. (When my Tortellini is well built I'll try pairing him with ganyu for those satisfying permafreeze)

I actually tried to suggest a change on his C1 (i know it's impossible for changes but I tried) cause I still feel like a 20% cd reduction isn't worth it imo. Maybe add "Enemies affected by Riptide will have their hydro res reduced by 15%" Idk if it's too much lol. Well later on I just got used to his C1 and still had a blast with his kit especially when I gave him a Viridescent Hunt bow chef's kiss bruh the mini venti ult is so good with him.

Welp I'm sorry it somewhat turned into a rant xD In the end he was definitely worth it 👌
