Musician here- the sheet music animation during Robin’s ult actually notates the song! It’s in E major and the rhythm and melody matches up! I love that little detail ❤
That’s a pretty sick detail and cool to know really shows the work and dedication put into the characters kit
Not a musician here! i just saw it on r/honkaistarrail_leaks and yeah they match theres a video about matching stuff
In her ult mode, she also moves in rhythm with her song, like the finger snapping, the swaying, I love it so much
Leakers: already knew that
hoyo has always been exceptional with their attention to detail. Just Aventurine's name is steeped in real life lore and culture!
WE MUST STAY STRONG FOR FIREFLY MY BROTHERS
Yes I am currently saving about 90 wishes for Firefly have to skip my man
most painful skip ever man but for firefly
RAHGHHHH
Yes sirrrr
Suit yourselves, Im pulling for both (hopefully I win)
Hoyo is a menace for putting Robin and Topaz in same run
I have topaz so ez robin
I don't have either but want someone😅
I know, right? Hoyo is brutal for this banner. I really want them both, hopefully I can
me too i want both!!! but i guess i will pull topaz first for my ratio aventurine team
Really i wanted topaz’ LC but know i can’t get it bc of robin… lets hope to at least win the 50/50
being a f2p is hard. I want robin, boothill and firefly. 😭💔
same, it’s rough out here 😔
For me, I also want Topaz E1 and LC on top of that..
Same
Sam mains stay strong !!! HOLD !!!!!
Should make f2p group to acknowledge how poor we are😢😂
Finally a Ruan Mei for the second team in MOC
Sparkle: am I a joke to you?
@@curtis9555 what is that?
Sparkle is hypercarry focused Robin is team wide buff@@curtis9555
@@curtis9555 sparkle only kind of work EFFECTIVELY on some specific team either 1. DHIL team 2. The gabling gremlin queen team 3. Mono Quantum with Seele other than that she kinda ehh like u can use her on Jing Liu team but bronya better be here or u can use her currently on fua team but then again with robin coming she will get kick aside Sparkle is basically in nutshell giving u SP and yes i do have her e6s5 so i can said that she is kind of ehh good but not NEEDED for all team Ruan Mei on other hand u can use her almost universaly on almost all team and with boothill is coming she will be there too and if firefly not change for her leak then she will be pair with firefly toobut back again sparkle is like use on some specific team i guess and robin will most likely tune in on FUA team
@@curtis9555 unfortunately Sparkle is not RM tier, she's only competing with Bronya
Robin having a mechanic Where she can sing during mid battle is honestly kinda sick in my opinion
True, till you heard it hundred times
True, but she won’t be the last of this kind, they’ll prob do something similar with another character matching their theme, so I could be a song, maybe interact-able kinda like Acheron, sky’s the limit as we’ve seen from ults like Acheron, ofcourse robin, etc
It is sick indeed, sickly annoying.
@@dewanegara8333imagine if you can change the song whatever you want when u got her lightcone...
The fact she's so broken, it's even better
It would be interesting to get 2 additional sliders in the Audio settings: • Voices during combat • Special Music (Songs) during combat That way, everyone can tune it to their own preferences 🙂
I think that would be great. I know that if I get her, listening to that song every time she does her ult is going to annoy me after a while. This could be useful for that Annihilation Gang dude with the string bass too, if he becomes playable. 😂
@@babygeige Lol now I really wanna know what's up with Akash and his big ass cello! 😅 Although if he uses nothing but the instrument, his Ult might be more Serval-ish than Robin-ish 😃
@PLBiohazard, yeah, maybe if you put them together you get a whole song, haha!
@@babygeige Hey no kidding, I really hope that SOMEDAY we get a whole musical piece within the game, with several characters singing and dancing together. We had a tiny tease of that with White Night... but a full cutscene would be SICK 🤩 Now... for lore-wise reasons, I really have no idea XD Let's put an interastral music festival and invite every faction from the universe to go crazy on the dancefloor!!! 😆(Charmony doesn't count, it's very Robin-centric)
@@PLBiohazard that sounds like fun!! 😀
The fact she advances forward all allies’ turns by 100% is sort of OP.
160 energy is kinda high
@@HAHDgeh but do able
@@HAHDgeh A lot of her kit passively gives her energy, especially the one where she gets Energy when her allies attack.
I thought bronya does this too
not really most of the time you only run 1 dps and hyper speed tingyun with ddd is enough
The song is pretty damn good I would have loved if she had like 2-3 songs to randomly pick from though.
Do you still love her ult song?
Shaggy reviewing Robin is the HSR-Scooby-Doo crossover I'd have never thought was possible.
If DANCE! DANCE! DANCE! was a playable character.
As much as I love Robin’s ult song NOW, not being able to disable it makes me never want to bring her into main story quests which is kind of lame.
OMG finally someone with this take 👌. I 100% agree with you. Also you can still hear the battle music during her ult song, and more often than so the key of the songs don't match. And as a musician that obliterates my ears 🥲
@@fullyf2p40 100%. But will be a nice battle theme for wiping MoC and PF at least :3
@@fullyf2p40You can? I’ve not heard the two playing at the same time yet.
@@fullyf2p40 imagine lying on the Internet
@@yubaa I used to be a musician, and he is not Iying.. the song took us out of the immersion IoI. imagine during CocoIia story, when Wildfire is pIaying, and then Robin UIt................... 💀
Robin will be a very good piece for the FUA team, plus the fact that she can sing makes her even more special
You can be special too, you are strong
you are my special
Robin be singing while your allies and enemies fighting each other. I find her gameplay in battle very comical.
She truly is bard gaming
Brad coming in again with the guide clutch! These guides are so detailed and informative and makes understanding a character so much better❤
MUST..... STAY....... STRONG FOR BOOTLEG AND FIREFLYYYYYY
ABSOLUTELY NOT RIIIIIIISE UP INTO MY WOOOOORLD
@@cursedcat9557NAHHH, MECHA AND WAIFU IS KEY… plus idk who “BOOTLEG” is but BOOTHILL is a cool char, maybe on his next rerun lol
@@cursedcat9557 NARRRRRR!!!
I feel like there's a lot of potential in break effect team , and if sam implants fire weakness too its over 💀
Pulling both (All Or Nothing🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️)
Brax gallagher cosplay when
As I have Ruan Mei, I will in fact be picking up Robin, because I need a second Ruan Mei.
Sparkle
@@iliakazakov5947sparkle isn't really comparable to Robin, she's more suited to hyper carry whereas robin is for FUA/double dps team comps
@@iliakazakov5947irónico porque ella es op pero en team dot o adicionales pierde algo más en dot comparado a ruan mei xdd
@@iliakazakov5947Sparkle and Robin/RM for a hypercarry team.
@@iliakazakov5947 wut? You can't use Sparkle to replace Robin/RM lmao
She will be very good. Unfortunately i can’t pull for her at initial release due to firefly. Best of luck for those going to pull for her
Same need to skip this for fire fly already have ruan mei and sparkle so is not gonna hurt to bad 😂
17:33 the mina mention is crazy 😭
Everyone knows she's down bad for robin now lol
BRAX LOOKS SOO GOOD WITH THAT BEARD ❤❤❤
yes! so handsome!
It's gone, both the hair and the beard. He shaved and got a haircut. If you're curious you can see his latest vod on twitch
@@Yachiiguys tend to do this even though they get compliments about their facial hair
@@bdanBdodeDepends on the country, some countries its the other way around.
Did Jingliu leave you whats with the homeless beard 😂😂
LMAO
She did. Did you see this man pulling for Acheron? Jingliu deserves more loyalty than that. She keeps eating all my ice cream. 😢
Yes.
Back to back videos, today's gonna be an amazing day les gooooooooooooo
I'm not pulling for Robin yet since I'm saving for Boothill, his LC, and Ruan Mei's rerun but man, I'll def be saving up for when she comes back. I do DOT and FUA teams (and for some reason also preparing for a BE based team) so Robin would def be a good fit there.
I was wondering when we were getting another one of these impressions! 160 Energy is still insane though!!!
She gets energy back and don't need to ult evry turn so it's gonna be fine
Brax looks like a teen wolf main character in the middle of transforming.
I can't wait for Sunday
finally the vid we’ve been waiting for
14:33 RIP our saviour Pokke, I feel like I can still here his voice when he used 10sp on QQ
I wish we can turn her song off separately gonna put that in feedback
thanks for the ahowcase!, wish me luck. I'm gonna pull for her 🥳
Harmony taking the Spotlight with this one 🗣️🔥
As much as I love her being a songstress and her ult is an actual performance... knowing it will interrupt Wildfire is unacceptable 😅
100% my concern upon hearing she sings during Ult. Should either come with a toggle or just be set to not play during Story Boss fights.
But Cocolia dies in 2 to 3 turns 💀
I'm pretty sure they will add a toggle for character ult song later on
@@shinjimatou6778 What if you get Robin and are a new player who is the proper level to fight her? Or if she shows up in a higher level event like she did that one time? Still worth concerning yourself with imo.
That's their own problem
i seriously want her so much because i love her from the start but i really wanna secure topaz and numby since its their rerun 😭 if i won my 50/50 on topaz banner then she will definitely get the rest of my pulls !! (i have a little over 200 warps currently)
Oh you definitely got this not to mention we get the golden 10 tickets too
@@XxPlatinumChief thanks !!! hopefully i get them both !!!!
Nice vid brax, thanks, you planning on making more team comp showcase? i really wanna see how she plays with seele infinite turn comp, or clara comp just bec im curious how she plays with her
Good luck to those pulling for her. I'm fresh out after getting Acheron and her LC ...
Pulled for archon and aventurine im tapped out for 2.2 saving for sam 😅
Robin appears to me to be balanced against the background of RM. Slightly stronger, but with more nuances/problems with energy/sp consumption in some teams "it's not designed for"
I think what Brax said 5 mins in is on the money. If you missed Ruan Mei, she gives similar enough buffs for dual dps teams and more. I don't think she's on Mei's level, but which support is at this moment. Sparckle comes close imo since she covers the hyper carry spot, especially if you don't have Bronya...
i personally think robin is a stronger mei
Also worth noting is that Quid Pro Quo on Abundance characters would be amazing for Robin Ult uptime since as soon as the Abundance char takes their turn after Robin's ult starts, Robin is going to receive a chunk of energy back thanks to QPQ. It would be great on Gallagher who attacks frequently with a damaging ult, Luocha who can spam basics and also hit with his ult, and of course Huohuo for extra energy juicing.
Great tip
Finally a review that shows Robin being good for dual dps and dot etc! Cant wait to put her in my Jingliu team!!!
You mean MIDliu? 😅
@@ABC-yj6cy Ah, you must've been one of those users who got a Yanqing in Jingliu's banner. You should've said so, lol
Cool character i was considering pulling for her but then the thought of having to listen to her song over and over and over while fighting made me change my mind. I don't wanna her cheerful song to cover an epic bossfight soundtrack and don't wanna mute the entire game either
Your just turning down the music it doesn't effect the rest of the audio unless you wanna hear the in game battle music.
You can mute it
@@Avis0123 The fact that it clashes with the battle music is the problem not the songs itself .
Wouldn't the song be part of the character voice slider and not music??
Finally! a showcase with the music off thanks!
i have a problem.. i dont have ruan mei but i'm planning to pull for her, and this patch i'm pulling for topaz for my ipc team. i mainly use dot team though. should i get robin or wait until ruan mei rerun? ps. my luck is terrible, the 50/50s i win are hard pity (71-75)
I hope win 50/50 And I need jade too 🗣️💜
Im not sure about meta, but she definitely powercreeped everyone in terms of how pretty she is
True!! Normally I don't pull female characters, but she's way too adorable.
Careful. Don't let the deranged firefly fans hear you.
She's 100% meta lol
She's definitely pretty, but man i wish those chicken wings didn't exist
Truest of the truth
does robin ult's music constantly repeating itself? if yes , theres an option to disable it? honest question...
that lc will be on my ting yun
I swear the only thing I need for hoyo to do to get me to pull is a mute button, she’s just not worth getting in the way of battle OSTs. There’s just no way I’m gonna put myself in that situation. For those who come at her defense, have fun with that in a couple of months and see if you change your mind.
Apparently for boss OSTs (like Wildfire), those stay. It's only the normal battle themes that get overwritten. So in MoC and while farming you'll hear Robin's song all the time, but in the story/vs weekly bosses you won't. One thing I'm not sure of is bosses in SU, but I would assume Robin's song takes precedence there.
@@gunnarschlichting9886 I’m ngl, I would still get tired of it. I’d still prefer to hear the battle ost’s instead of that song… And the worst part is ai actually like it and think it’s cute but all I can do is dread at the thought of hearing it over and over regardless of main story…
@@bubbles000if you don't wanna hear her singing there are 3 ways you can do, 1. Mute the game 2. do not use her ult 3. do not pull the diva
@@bubbles000 and people will get tired with the same thing and getting use it eventually, I doubt there is players who still enjoy ruanmei playing her sitar every time whenever she doing ultimate and not getting bored of it
@@Donkam_haurderIt’s different with rm, because her ruan is like 3 plucks, I’ve been using her since release and it doesn’t change anything with the actual bg music
Girlie pops singing through the mass genocide in the background🙏🙏
love the hair!
good job man love your vids
I think you are significantly undervaluing the E2 buddy. 16% speed!? Um, hello!? An extra energy from talent!?!? Do you even 0 cycle? Both those things are insane for 0 cycle comps. I wish there was a creator who focused on 0 cyclers for investment recommendations and guides for in-depth techs as I feel like I'm playing a different games when these creators constantly try to cater to the casuals. Like, if you're going to talk about eidolons at all, you should assume those interested are 0 cycling end game content.
less than 0.1% of players zero cycle. The energy from talent is barely gonna affect 0 cycles anyways. funny enough, most whales i know are more casual than the f2p players, so I dont think it's unreasonable to not go in depth for zero cycling on a first impressions video
@@Braxophone You're mistaken on this. Getting more energy from the talent greatly eases up what's necessary to get 2 ults with Robin in a 0 cycle rotational format for more teams. Non follow-up teams especially will enjoy any help they can get for instance to lighten the requirements for that. As for the 16% speed, that will be a huge help for attempting 4 turn rotations for several comps. From either end of it, it's clearly an eidolon with great value for 0 cycling. I don't feel that you're really giving an accurate assessment of its value for those in my demographic. Which, how small or large that demographic is really is besides the point, don't you think? Which, to continue on that, I didn't say whales. 0 cycling isn't something exclusively done by big spenders. Rather, those who spend less need to min max more to make up for their lower spending to reach the goal in mind. You do realize, I'm sure, that there aren't just f2p players and whales, yeah? There is a rather significant number of those in my demographic who put a bit of money into the game who, with good pull luck, may be in a position to consider things like E1, S1, or even E2. In which, 0 cycling is the only thing that really matters to a lot of us, as if we don't aim to 0 cycle, the game has no challenge or meaningful interaction that gets us to really dig into the game's mechanics in a fulfilling way. Regardless, I can't really respond to your video from a perspective I just don't have, yeah? I am what I am, and so I'm going to look at your content from that point of view. It being a first impressions video, to me, doesn't really necessitate to not have a broader consideration of perspectives in regards to the early eidolons which may come into play for light spenders who may want that vertical investment to aid in fast clears. Regardless what actual percent my demographic truly is, it doesn't change that we are sort of the ones you should be considering, to at least some extent, when assessing the value of things like an E2. I really think that's a rather reasonable position to have, especially since I'm in that demographic myself, you know?
You talk like a whale yet you sound like you know nothing about 0 cycles or for that matter have even done a 0 cycle. Very interesting that you are devaluing the video and the content when you have not gave anything of value in return. If you are soooo good at 0 cycle then whale on her and report back to the video. I dare you to whale… i dare you.
Nowayy star rail official YT leaked it before him
Hey brax question would she be good with the light cone Dreamville Adventure? Because let's say Robin ultimates and then you stack all your ultimates all of those ultimates would get a 20% damage bonus on top of the 50% she gets so that 70% stack.
I was waiting for this vid all day,and it gets uploaded right b4 i go to work Well at least i have smthn to watch will having my coffee soon
Sparkle is broken enough for me at 160 SPD so I think I’m going to skip and keep saving for Firefly
second half
My poor stellar jades
I AM SO EXCITED FOR ROBIN! ALREADY PREFARMED RELICS 💕💕💖
every video is a deep dive into fascinating topics!
I'm just so sceptical about her SP economy. I hope it's just my imagination but I really do think she's gonna have massive issues outside of fua teamcomps where Topaz can be played fully SP positive to make up for Robin's lack of generation
She is sp neutral so with someone like luocha or aventurine who are super sp positive you should be fine
Exactly. Like all the benefits mentioned in her kit is like 80% for FuA teams. Outside of that i just can't see any usecase
@@arshiyagrf2695bro just ignored the 100% AA. She's RM part 2 basically, more complex, higher ceiling but lower floor
@@arshiyagrf2695 I think she's gonna have other use cases like Jingliu team or smth but people are overhyping AF by saying she's RM equivalent
@@Arvi_The_Clownno, all the tests ppl are doing in beta shows that robin outperforms rm in any team besides boothill break AND even there robin is only behind slightly
PLEASE ROBIN COME HOME EARLY AND WINNING 50/50 😭
best of luck may you get two in one 10 pull!
Question. I am very broke after bringing Kakavasha back from Nihility's end. Should I do what I can on this banner? Or save for Jade, who looks like a follow up attack erudition?
question if i have a dot team with huohuo, kafka, and black swan, and i don't have raun mei, whats a better support to pull? is one better then the other or like are they on par with each other?
She seems stronger than Ruan mei damn
3x or 4x depend speed ++DD in 1 turn is OP very worth bro
@@JT-Free I know but I want boothiil also the new end game is hunt focused
@@alighaebi734 boothill+MC harmony+ruan mei = break effect steroids..
They're about the same, Robin is better in FuA/Multi dps comps but RM is still overall better in every other comps
She's cool but I'm sticking with my E2 Sparkle for follow up teams more time to save for Jade 😤
I plan on pulling for robin but idk who to replace topaz with in the ipc team cuz im a new player (2.1) so i dont have sw…So who could be a good replacement? Pela? Or another 4* unit? (my only 5* are acheron, aventurine, ratio, e1s1 bronya, e1 geppie and an unbuilt clara)
I think I'll pick Robin up whenever she reruns since I really want Boothill and Firefly
She's a skip to me i lack AOE Fire DPS because my Topaz is only single Target so im going for Firefly i need more Follow up attacker teammates for Topaz so im also going for Jade...yeah robin can buff follow up but i prefer Jade over Robin base on my waifu type
Meanwhile me wanting robin, FF, and jade because they all my type: RAAAHHGGG (swiping noise intensifies)
I’m blessed as a f2p in this game. So many characters in this game that I do not like and do not interest me whatsoever. I’ll happily keep saving my tickets for that one character whoever they are that truly picks my fancy
Yeah I’m been feeling that too. Nothing really changes much between these characters.
Mine was Acheron I pulled her for the insta kill on tech lol
Idk i don't have any waifus/husbandos in this game. I just want to collect them all
@@meg_goodmansame
Just wondering cause it wasnt really clear in the team showcase but can Robin ult break enemies? This would be great for Dot teams since bleed is really strong. Heavily tempted to pull her even if I can do only a 50/50.
Robin design and singer kit alone is a must pull for me this is essentially Tama from E7 witch is one of my most favorite char in that game and im sure Robin will become a favorite in this one actual kit wise shes up there with Ruan Mai to be amazing for any acc going forward
She's awesome, but Ruan Mei's Break Efficiency increase + opponent Break downtime extension is still more OP 🎉 I hope they give us song selection options for her Ult, that will be great 😊
Hold on, is that "mute when window is inactive" a new option? That changes everything. Especially when I take a work call and Sparkle decides to start yapping in the background.
I really need to stay stronger for Sunday but god hell even if i already have Bronya en Sparkle i will be pulling for Robin, she just looks so fun to play in follow up 🎉
I'm starting to like this character but sadly I dont have any jades left since I mostly went for the 2.1 characters and lightcones, maybe I will grab her in rerun 😢
Getting her for Clara and Mr. Svarog 🗿
Are you an illya and beserker enjoyer?
Yall better not be cheating on your robot girlfriend with a terminal illness.
yep im not
Twitter says shes lesbian
I'd rather get the chicken wing siblings.
not into women, so no problem lol
guys can someone recommend me who to get first between topaz and robin? i love fua teams so eventually id like both. so should i go topaz and pick up ruan mei on her rerun and then robin on her rerun orrr robin then rm then topaz? or should i even get rm?
I don't have FUA team characters and have Sparkle/Ruan Mei/Bronya E1. I use team around Acheron E2/Jingliu E2 as my main Dps as Team1/2.. Is she still a must pull meta wise?
She's not. She's less universal than Mei and harder to play and tune. Her design is amazing tho and I'm sure the story will make us pull her regardless lol
Her song is weirdly grating and is genuinely a reason I won’t pull her
Thanks for the video! xdd
As f2p who doesnt have ruan mei and uses DOT, since u mention if you have ruan mei you can prob skip robin, if i pull robin does it make sense to skip ruan mei on a rerun or still go for her as someone has invested in DOT teams?
people are gonna get tired of that song. im already sick of it.
Speak for yourself b7ddy, I've been listening to it since almost a month already
@jeremylall1298 I said people not non human
Sounds like a you problem.

@@darkmaster7061I feel you😂😂
Maybe pull in rerun
@@Stellaron912 thanks
same.. eaay skip because not enough jades and i am pass only no top up.
hey sorry to ask @Braxophone but is there some way or platform u can check accounts? Im a normal player and have been at it from the beginning of release. I feel i can push my characters a bit more but im not sure what to do, id really appreciate an analysis of what i have and what i can do to maximize my account potential. Tyvm and love your vids, keep it up and best of wishes.
I have Topaz and her e1. After I pull Robin which light cone would be the biggest benefit for me for the follow-up team?
I need y’alls opinion whether i should pull for robin or topaz. I already have a ratio, aven, and ruan mei and her lc. I want robin and topaz. But with my limited f2p jades, what should i do?
What do you think about using Bronya's 5* lightcone for Robin? I don't have Bronya but I got it from standard banner
Would the event lightcone work with Tingyun? I know the damage increase is kind of useless but Tingyun can work with this too, right?
Question, I have E6 Silverwolf which is technically a DPS, right? If I use her with Seele or any other DPS does that count as ‘Dual DPS’ for a team with Robin?
Is it a good idea to replace Sparkle for Robin? My main dps is Arcaron and welt as sub dps with hou hou as healer
can i skip ruan mai when i have robin ? or do i stell need her for dot teams etc. ?
Do you need E1S1 topaz for the IPC team? I'm afraid I won't have enough jades to pull for Robin and Topaz, so E1S1 is practically impossible for me😢
7:19 i really glad u what u did there such nice touch...
I have a question cause the leaks weren't too clear about it. Does her Concerto state "additional attacks" count as FUA? If so then that would have great synergy with Aventurine's stacks :)
Robin would be good for my follow up team as a support. But I also want Firefly… so I’m planning on going for both, in foolishness. For reference on how foolish I am, I just got Aventurine.
I like ur spirit, gamble addict!
W plan 🔥
Who am I supposed to use the event LC on if I don't have robin? Can harmony TB make use of it?
is there a limit on how much atk will she buff of now many % of her atk or the more atk the more buff?
If I'm building a follow-up team. Is it best to get Topaz first or Robin? I have Ruan Mei, so I'm guessing in my case it's best getting Topaz first but what do you guys think?
