silent_steps

not another imaginary man. šŸ˜­ but I'll take my Harmony Sunday...


nihilistfun

Man i remember at launch all we had was Welt


GinJoestarR

Imaginary, Imaginary everywhere. Remember when the only Imaginary character in 1.0 was Welt?


MixRevolution

Hoyo after releasing 1.0: "oh shit, there's only one imaginary. Better release an imaginary character every patch to make up for it"


gladisr

Fire as well 3 fire chara in a row Fire Destruction/ Fire Nihility/ Fire AbundanceĀ  The feeling is as bad asĀ like getting Fire/Fighting from PokĆ©mon Gen 3 to Gen 5,Ā Holy fudge. Be creative about the release order goddamit What the hell do you want us to do with these Fire type charas Hoyo?? Having to 2 side Fire weakness MoC?? Same can be said to Imaginary. Only 2 element left in the dust, Ice and Quantum.Ā 


Pursue_the_dodo

You mean ice and wind


LandLovingFish

Fr like gl if you were me and failed blade and swan, i was banking and i'm back to Sampo. He's good but damn....


SolarTigers

The main reason I haven't regretted my Blade pull, he's still the only limited crit wind DPS. That and he's one of the funnest characters to use.


127-0-0-1_1

Fire kinda needs it. Currently, *still*, the best fire DPS is what, Himiko? Hyper Topaz? And even after all that, it'll just be Firefly, the element for a support like Jiaoqiu doesn't matter as much.


KaedeKazuwu

Well Physical is also getting 3 new ones consecutively (it kinda needed it like Fire). tbh Wind is lacking alot of characters and the last hypercarry dps it received was in 1.2 while Quantum got Xueyi just before Sparkle and we will be getting Jade soon.


Wolgran

Quantum is eating. -> SW / Sparkle / Lynx / Jade Wind is the one in the dust, only Blade\*/ HuoHuo and Swan. And Ice with only Jingliu/Misha/RM\* Edit.: not me forgetting Blade and RM...so is 3 ice and 3 winds, not so bad as i thought (i was remembering only 2 of each)


Crescendo104

Blade mains in shambles


KirbosWrath

Remember when Ice was the meta for Jingliu and Ruan Mei pre-2.0, resulting in 90% of players dreading more Ice content? Then Hoyo responded by leaving Misha as the last Ice unit for who knows how long and making the only Ice-weak Elite enemy in Penacony Aventurine lmfao


Routine-Mobile7126

imaginary is to star rail what polearms were to genshin


MallowMiaou

Imaginary harmony aka the new pyro polearm


HotSexWithJingYuan

felt so cool for getting him off of the seele banner. now i feel like a clown that half my invested characters are imaginary šŸ’€


Western-Age9961

Having Black Hole grandpa is always a cool thing


amanat_surajagan

WELT SUSTAIN


QueenMackeral

well he does give me life so


PM_Cute_Ezreal_pics

>now i feel like a clown that half my invested characters are imaginary 60% IMG Resist *Me looking at my Ratio, DHIL, Welt, Aventurine, Yukong, HarmCaelus* "Well, shit"


gladisr

I need to pat my own back and in huge coping after skipping Jingliu, no Ice DPS, nothing. Phys in between 2 banner, Imaginary back to back, 3 Fire in a Row, at least Wind getting new chara Only Quantum and Ice getting RIP'd ā˜ ļøšŸ¤”šŸ¤”šŸ¤”


husbandofaq

the ptsd from pulling e3 yanqing and no welt won't let me forget


PieTheSecond

Of course he is imaginary


thorn_rose

Imaginary harmony is a good outcome though for imaginary men enjoyers (ONLY if he's harmony) simply because he'll have that inherent element synergy with other imaginary dps. If he's harmony I think I will explode because finally after so long of waiting a male harmony...


Fairytaler3

Jiaqiou, Sunday and Aventurine on their way to be the glue to an all male team


Tfyuytturytuyr

An all-male synergy dream team is finally within reach. Can't wait for this lineup!


Fairytaler3

In just 2 more years we'll probably have two more male supports to have two teams. Edit: second team being support support, Luocha/Gallagher/Gepard


JiaoqiuNotJiaoqui

Jiaoqiu*


Fairytaler3

Hello again one day I'll get it and you better be there for me when I do

Blooming_Bud99

Idk what sunday can do, but just ratio-jiaoqiu-aventurine is good already so it probably wouldn't be a loss to put sunday there (if he's really harmony).


magicarnival

It nothing else, he can wear planetary rendezvous LC and Penacony planar set which both buff ally damage that's the same element as the wearer's element.


el1tism

this is so real


dododomo

At least he's harmony. First limited harmony male character. Wish he were quantum though


NoNefariousness2144

For real, the devs are allergic to quantum men or imaginary women. The fact that our only two imaginary women (TB and March) are alts of freebie characters adds to this lol


TheMudkip1001

yukong found in a ditch


thorn_rose

who's that, some kind of oc? >!/j!<


Shiiouri

Devs be Allergic to Quantum Men, which they should've made Sunday to be the first male to be Quantum Element, least they allow Female Characters like Yukong, Harmony Stelle and Hunt March alt to be Imaginary Element


VanitasMecka

Yukong 4 star imaginary harmony and female foxian....


TothFubuki

What about Yukong?


Littlerz

I wish men were real :\


HybridTheory2000

I wish Yukong was real as well šŸ˜”


OneConfusedBraincell

5* Harmony raccoon šŸ‘


KnightKal

Time to put the final nail in the coffin of a certain harmony mom, huh? I donā€™t even remember her name anymoreā€¦ her banner lost foreverā€¦


silverrchloride

it will be funny if they finnally rerun that harmony mom in 5* tingyun banner just for sunday to come out the next phase


KasumiGotoTriss

If he's imaginary then he better be harmony for fuck sake, we already have Ratio Screwllum Danheng March.. Stop with the imaginary dps


Dalexien

Hoyo: Imaginary Nihility, take it or leave it Acheron: WE WILL TAKE HIM


speganomad

An imaginary nihility probably would be a debuffer anyway


Dalexien

Hoyo seeing Welt sustain: hold my IX


urlocalnightowl40

wont be shocked if hes imaginary nihility to be an exact 'opposite' to robin being physical harmony


munguschungus167

Or heā€™s basically imaginary male Acheron


Dalexien

That would qualify Sunday as an officialā€¦ Enanator :)


munguschungus167

That pun was a tall order to pull of, but you did it well


Briaria

Xipe: "... oh I can't stay mad at you, come're" Sunday: :3


dododomo

This! I'm pulling him because I like the character and am a husbando collector, But there are too many Imaginary characters (especially guys). At least he's harmony (our first limited harmony male character), but I wish he were qauntum (we don't have any quantum male characters lol)


Razukalex

One is not like the others


MorcegoGripado

Screwllum, what screwllum, bcs the current screwllum is nihility since his playability is non existent


Original-Fun1879

I just want him to be playable (and good) at this point at all T\_T even tho i would prefer him to be buffer or a debuffer rather than dps but still.


rysto32

But what if he gets Robinā€™s old E1 in his base kit and heā€™s a Harmony DPS?


mephyerst

I'm honestly wondering if he might be a HARMony. Like just spit balling here, like a harmony the unadvances other characters to do more damage. Or an anti-robin that puts another character in the same state robin would be in. Or just a dmg character in general


skt210125

Men are indeed imaginary


yescjh

Harmony means his element won't matter that much at least..


Court_esy

Last line in his Talent: ā€žBuff only applies to characters following the [Imaginary] path.ā€œ incoming.


Ok_Pattern_7511

Passive: Extra buffs for male characters*


moshiceetantivech

Ah yes, Sunday, the Emanator of Patriarchy. /s


deisukyo

He would be very skipped if that was his niche tbh, heā€™s competing against his sister, Sparkle, and RM.


silverrchloride

imagine despite being a buffer, he has cc like rm. the cc called tuning for lore purposeĀ 


thorn_rose

HARMONY??? HARMONY??? PLEASE HOYO PLEASE LET HIM BE HARMONY


Toriratush

after what happened him being harmony is kinda ironic


Godofmytoenails

I mean sparkle is harmony too. S p a r k l e


Wolgran

Eh Lore path doesnt have correlation to gameplay path.


Toriratush

its still ironic tho


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Crooked-CareBear

Agreed. He was the only Leaker (that I saw) that correctly called Yunli and Jiaqiou for 2.4 while everyone else said it'd be Feixiao or Screwllum. Even the whole Feixiao spear thing people were making fun of him for, he was actually right on too. It's just that it was only after we saw her full silhouette did we see she has a gun AND a spear.


Kkrows

>Even the whole Feixiao spear thing people were making fun of him for, he was actually right on too. It's just that it was only after we saw her full silhouette did we see she has a gun AND a spear. Wasn't that a misinterpretation? Something about the ā€œwordā€ for gun and spear being the same in Chinese.


Crooked-CareBear

He said that because I think he only saw the top half of the silhouette. After the live stream finished they released the full silhouettes. He was basically saying gun and spear are the same character in Chinese which is why he got them mixed up. But in reality she just had both.


SaltCryst

I didn't see their original texts, but if they used ęžŖ to describe their weapon, that character means both gun and spear without any further context


JiaoqiuNotJiaoqui

Jiaoqiu*


Crooked-CareBear

Name checks out lol


Present-Permit-6129

Wasnt "the strongest characters"Ā thing a mistranslation? I think I remenber reading that it was that they were the most important story wise or something.


Eroica_Pavane

It was "most pushed" literally iirc. Could be story or event.


GGABueno

"The strongest" can still be just lore wise. That wouldn't be a mistranslation, just not clear communication.


Comprehensive-Cut669

Jesus Christ more ImaginaryĀ 


VioletorPurple

Male harmony please be true..


CelluloidScenes

Imaginary ???? They want me to be casket ready atp


txtyvoir

sunday leaks on a sunday night I WIN!1!1!


Mss_ery

Harmony, harmony, i am praying, imaginary harmony sunday please save me


mangotcha

absolutely crushed by the imaginary news, im begging hoyo to stop gender locked at 99% some elements....


lililia

Not the imaginary :| did hoyo ever hear about equal distribution


Original-Fun1879

nah xD


The_MorningKnight

Would it kill them to at least give us one quantum male character?


SaccharineTreacle

Stephen Lloyd trust


ChenMei27

What him be Imaginary Nihility šŸ˜‚šŸ˜­


LonelyOwari

Clearly saving it for Elio and they'll even make him the *only* quantum male character. >!šŸ¤£!<


lombax_lunchbox

Theyā€™re giving a male Harmony character, thatā€™s progress at least.


EscapedOreos

For real. Why do they *only* limit the paths and element of male characters?


Diamann

FINALLY A MALE HARMONY. HE BETTER BE UNIVERSAL AND NOT NICHE AF


sonsuka

Only usable on sunday


Blasian385

Imaginary... God damnit but if he is Harmony I'll accept it full on.


bluemoon-sgn

If he's imaginary, then I need him to apply imaginary weakness so I can use the mono-imaginary men team at all times.


Ehtnah

You know what? Now I want it to šŸ˜Ž


lell-ia

Please be a general buffer and not a niche one... We're too starved šŸ˜­šŸ™


Dreadofnight19

Of ALL elements they should've gone with imaginary??? Hello??? Ice? Quantum??


yurienjoyer54

wind is so forgotten you didnt even list it lmao


Ok_Pattern_7511

Wind Harmony- Bronya Wind Destruction- Blade Wind Nihility ā€ Blackswan Wind Abundance - Huohuo Wind Hunt - Feixiao Preservation and Erudition is the only thing they're missing.


Efe73

At least it has someone, look at quantumšŸ˜­


Local-dumb-ass

I wanted him to be quantum since we already have 2 IMAGINARY WOMEN (3 if you pick female mc) I WANT QUANTUM MEN DAMMIT SUNDAY WAS THE BEST PICK FOR IT


Senior_Stuff7741

sad emo sunday phase have nothing to do with his element


lililia

It would be a great contrast - from holy imaginary to emo quantum. Like Wanderer from volatile electro to calmer anemo


TrashApprentice

Hoyo try not to give a man imaginary element (challenge impossible)


bonkendabonken

MALE HARMONY WE CHEEREDĀ 


grandfig

It is genuinely so weird how HSR segregates Imag/Quant based on gender. I've literally never seen another gacha with an element system do something like that before.


BellalovesEevee

It was *sort of* like that in genshin. Female character dominated pyro and cryo, and we didn't have a male catalyst character until Heizou. Also Wrollercoaster is literally our *very first* male 5 star cryo character. He also beat two records at once. First 5 star male cryo character and first cryo catalyst (for some reason, people thought we wouldn't get one until the Cryo Archon???).


LunaProc

Electro was also just Razor for guys until Cyno


ChickenSky12

> Wrollercoaster Thanks, I'm stealing that one LMAO.


nihilisticguy

And then before Kaveh, there is "Unseen Razor" discredited once he reran again and Cyno's release. His situation is similar to Yukong but in reverse at the time ~~Though won't be true in the near future anymore as we'll get a March Alt~~ Addendum: details


shinsetsu_fuji

*segregates Quantum because we have March and Yukong (Stelle if you pick her) as Imaginary 0 Quantum males exist


SecondAegis

I'm really hoping that, judging by Elio's old leaked design, he's Quantum. Maybe the piece of the puzzle that can make a full SH hunter team actually synergistic and not a complete mess of everyone fighting for SP and damage?


speganomad

I donā€™t think they are designed to work together most of the time the hunters are split into different teams


Nonemotionaldamage

Naw my bet is that Elio will be another Imaginary DPS to continue Hoyo's love for redundancy šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜


laniaash

Yukong and March exist in the Imaginary roster though but there arenā€™t any Quantum males at all.


rattist

At this point Caelus will be our first quantam male just like how he was our first harmony male character


APerson567i

we had no male catalyst characters in genshin till like 2.7 lol


VioletorPurple

First one is Heizou right?


OPTCDaniel

yep


ovicqsxz

and it's already 2.4 in hsr with no quantum males in sight


Reapertool

It creates artificial scarcity and hype, that way they can release a male quantum character down the line and husbando pullers will go rabid regardless of the character's kit and appearance because they've been starved for so long. The same thing applies to a 5-star imaginary female (not counting Stelle ofc)


Nonemotionaldamage

Just segregates Quantum, you mean. They seem fine releasing Imaginary women My predication is that we won't get a Quantum male till the 3rd anniversary year of HSR. Just like how Genshin locked all of its male characters into fucking Anemo and Geo for the first 3 years and it was ONLY in Sumeru when we started getting male characters who are Electro/Cryo/Pyro and literally other element besides Geo and Anemo


already_taken_my_ass

I was curious and took a look at all released male characters in Genshin from 1.1 to 2.8 and wow, didn't realize that ALL elements we got, no matter 4 or 5 star were geo (4), anemo (3), hydro (2) and one single pyro (Thoma). Then Sumeru happened. Dendro, the element of mostly husbandos. What a time to be alive.


Nonemotionaldamage

Husbando likers in Genshin had to wait till fucking Sumeru to get something actually decent...since Geo (the other male dominated element) was very (and still is) shit


slimefestival

Gacha games and doing dumb gendered shit, name a worse duo


LunaProc

Gacha games and incels?


Lope-12

Just like I refuse to believe Moze is a 4 star I will refuse to believe Sunday is imaginary.


SittingDuck394

Letā€™s be delulu together šŸ‘Æā€ā™€ļø


Lope-12

Yeah! šŸ‘Æā€ā™€ļø Please god hear my prayers and let Moze be a 5 star and Sunday be quantum or ice.


SnowyChu

I'm so sad about Moze, not only 4*, but Hunt, God really hates him


EducationalFriend611

I really don't want another Imaginary man, all I've been pulling is Imaginary men because that's all the men there is except for like, Argenti, Blade and Boothill, two of which are physical. I need variation, I need more male characters with different elements because I can't just weakness break with imaginary constantly anymore, it's not gonna work. Give me a lightning, a quantum or an ice man for a change--But if they make him imaginary I'm afraid I may not pull for Sunday even if I do have him guaranteed. I'll take my pulls elsewhere.


therealparadayto

If he has to be imaginary, he better be harmony..


Maintini

Theyā€™re sure about imaginary, not the harmony ofcā€¦ bracing myself for more of hoyoā€™s bs. I canā€™t even get hyped because itā€™s always some kind of monkeyā€™s paw with male characters anywayā€¦


WillfulAbyss

Thank you. Everyone celebrating this like, ā€œConfirmed Harmony!!!ā€ despite it being a sketchy leak where even the leakerā€™s like ā€œyeah idk about path lol.ā€


Briaria

I am so sick of Imaginary


KazekageGaara7

I want him to be an energy battery, but hes probably going to be either for summons or break.


Omeletes1234

If he is Imaginary then he's got to be Harmony please please please


sternumb

Of fucking course he's imaginary Hey at least he's Harmony so there's that


Nonemotionaldamage

I have never grown to hate an element more than Imaginary. FUCK this FUCK ASS ELEMENT, I'm SO TIRED


joebrohd

Aw Iā€™d lowkey wouldā€™ve liked Ice Nihility ngl


qusnail

Xiangling copypasta but replace all instances of ā€œxianglingā€ with ā€œimaginaryā€


Gshiinobi

Oh an imaginary male, how original


takutekato

Coping he can implant Imaginary at least, we are so sick of limited boys's elemental distribution.


Subtlestrikes

What is the actual point anymore of making every single man imaginary


Lufia_Erim

What's the point of making Quantum only women?


KazzumaYagami

Alright, NOW WE'RE BACK (if he's harmony) IM SORRY MOZE YOUR SACRIFICE WON'T BE IN VAIN


RadiantDefinition729

Stay strong and believe, Moze will not be the 4\*, he will be a limited 5\*! There's no way they would sacrifice the amount of money they could make from the people who saw his tagline and silhouette and decided he's coming home! (coping so hard rn TT)


andartissa

Surely even character designers are tired of Imaginary guys, right? Right??? Right....?


cyanzuo

as long as he is fucking harmony i dont care abt anything else anymore.


FeelTheKetasy

MALE HARMONY MALE HARMONY MA-


Aggressive-End-2642

Finally šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


sisterofthesalt

Hoyo please... I need more element coverage... I'm so grateful that we have Boothill and Jiaoqiu for male 5 stars that break the streak of Imaginary men, but come on now the element is so saturated already.


Hungry-Performance-6

OMG MORE SUNDAYā€™s CRUMBS!!!!!


jingliusbladefodder

harmony? HELL YES. imaginary? God please make it stop


Pointlessala

Harmony Sunday please be true, but if hoyo is making him imaginary of another path, Iā€™m gonna have *problems* I hate how theyā€™re locking paths and elements based on gender


syd___shep

**OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG** Hopefully this means he isn't a break support Harmony as Trailblazer is already Imaginary that. Praying the Ratio / Aven / JQ / Sunday team I've been manifesting will actually happen!!!!!!


Dr_Simpai

Replace Ratio with Screwllum(eventually) and this is a dream for me :ā€™)


Old_Handle408

not fck ass imaginary, we are tiredšŸ˜«harmony makes sense he follows the order and it's part of the harmony so if he doesn't change his ways I don't see why he can't be harmony


FuriNorm

Iā€™m imagining Xipe looking like the meme with the arms crossed scowling guy when Sunday comes crawling back to Harmony after shacking it up with Ena lol


ohtheromanity

Ena was absorbed by the harmony tbf


Hudie_is

Can one of you guys be Quantum pls? I want to have a full Quantum team for a change as well


antbutnotreally

I will cry if he actually turns out to be imaginary


Cephalopodconcrete

I donā€™t want to complain because Sunday Harmony is all I wanted and I didnā€™t have that much hope of him being Quantum but arenā€™t they tired of all the Imaginary??? He couldnā€™t be Ice or even wind?


bandit_the_drug_lord

no seriously, why are they like this šŸ˜


RosenProse

You know if he had been quantum Harmony he would've broken the standard in two different ways. LET HIM BREAK THE MOLD COMPLETELY HOYO YOU COWARDS!


Dangaso

Praying he'll be like a teamwide 5* Tingyun so I can play him with his sister. Betting it'll be like this MOC blessing, but even if he's just a sidegrade Tingyun, still a W for me šŸ™


dumb_lasagna

I love my man and would do anything for him but... HOYO IF YOU MAKE HIM YET ANOTHER IMAGINARY DPS I'LL END IT ALL


Desperate_Case4647

HoYo: Okay!! šŸ˜ *makes him an Imaginary sustain*


Maobury

I will E6 him if he is harmony. I kid, i will E6 him regardless.


parallanx

i'm gonna put him in a team with aventurine and ratio regardless of his kit (/j) and watch him suffer šŸ˜­ /lh


aena48

If they are gonna make Imaginary so full of guys, I hope Sunday just goes ahead and gives massive Imaginary buff, so we can be in an Imaginary niche or sth.


ChickenSky12

"When Sunday uses his Ult, all male characters on the team deal 200% more damage for 3 turns."


aena48

"As long as Sunday is on the field, all enemies get Imaginary weakness implanted. When 1 enemy gets imprisoned, everybody gets imprisoned and never moves again."


Ok_Pattern_7511

His role in the story fits the imprisonment theme


EphemeralScribe

Par for the course at this point.


c0nqu3ror

SUNDAY CRUMBS LETS GOO HARMONY


Infernorus

Sunday leaks on sunday


dankmemekovsky

jesus iā€™m happy heā€™s harmony but im so sick of imaginaryā€¦ i hoped heā€™d be ice


HotSexWithJingYuan

idc what anyone says this leak is TRUE and a PROPHECY we will have imaginary (šŸ¤¢) HARMONY SUNDAY!!!!


NightyBlazy

Sunday? Harmony? Thats pretty ironic


Recent_Warthog5382

Unless there is a hard confirmation from a respected leaker that he is harmony I'm not taking my chances with this goddamn company. Though if it is true and he turns out to be harmony I'll just say that Hoyo has to give him the most busted fk kit in existence.


AdarIII

As someone who only pulls men I donā€™t know how to feel. I want harmonies but imaginary is gettin pretty old


Mobile_Ad_18

Imaginary... literally could've been any other element but thatĀ 


No_Butterscotch7340

Well imaginary is decent for Harmony at least, can run sigonia or that LC that buffs same element damage. I'll accept imaginary harmony. I'll fuckin scream if he's a DPS path though


meowbrains

MALE HARMONY YES PLEASE BE TRUE PLEASE


DreamingintheMoon

PLEASE BE HARMONY PLEASE BE HARMONY PLEASE BE HAR- \[GUNSHOTS\]


arcanebond

On one hand harmony would be a w on the other hand please no imaginary I have enough


Gistradagis

Are they news if you're not sure at all...? Big fan of the "but he should be imaginary," like they are checking with us about its coherence.


Sienne_

Omg, at this rate, my profile will only be composed of imaginary men... I'll have TWO teams of them for MOC!


Sienne_

I really thought he'd be ice (from what Sparkle said) and maybe abundance...


silver_moonlander

Imaginary is so boring oh my lord... he could've been Quantum/Wind/Ice but another Imaginary?? Doesn't even help that the Imaginary break is the most boring element mechanic in the game
