Ranking EVERY 5 Star Character in Genshin Impact

59,305

3,254 0

Published 2024-07-20

Haven't made a Genshin Impact full tier list in a while (made a bunch on version specific units but not a general one) so I decided to make an updated one! I know I could've waited until Version 5 but a lot has changed in Version 4 and I think it's worth updating. Although this one will only cover 5 stars in light of there just being way too many units to talk about if we did everyone. Might do a 4 star video if there's enough support for it! As usual some things to make note:
- Waifu over Meta ALWAYS AND FOREVER
- Tier list is NOT ordered within tiers.
- Tier list grading is based on a spectrum not a hard cutoff. In other words, a character’s placement on a tier isn’t uniform. For example, one character in tier 2 might be very close to tier 1, whereas another character in tier 2 might be very close to tier 3. Therefore if you go “I can’t believe you put X in the same tier as Y”, please keep that in mind.
- This tier list will not factor specific cycles and will be based on general usage. Hyper specific situations are disregarded since that can undeservedly skew the practical usefulness of a character in their favor.

For the people who clicked on the video just to skip to the end to see the full list: I'll put my thoughts on Emilie in this pinned comment after she comes out so check back in a couple weeks :)
@headerkokab yesterday

The fact that there's not a single Cryo in the top 2 tiers... I really hope Snezhnaya brings some serious love to that element
@Slayloy69420 yesterday

THE SILENCE WITH ALOY LMAOOOOO ITS TRUE THOUGH AHAHAHHA
@davidotto7324 yesterday

''Aloy! Ehm ... ... Itto, Itto is..'' yeah, I agree

@THE_Dr_Nguyen yesterday

wtf? This is blatant propaganda. Aloy is an easy s tier. 100% fact checked by the enigmata.
@googlrscholar yesterday

even though explained that the "niche tier" can still be top tier, seeing childe xiao and nilou below the entire "decent tier" and even some on the "excellent tier" just feels so wrong lmao
@mrlazypencil yesterday

Aah the state of Cryo as a element is awful rn.
@WatasyWahyo yesterday

I would Switch Klee and Yoimiya. Yes Yoimiya is single target, but she is so easy to play, she attacks so fast that you almost don't need to move around to clean multiple waves of enemies. On the other hand, klee is too clunky to play. Even though I switched my yoimiya for arlechino for every much all the content, yoimiya has been cleaning all the content for me for the past 2 years

anemo traveler underrated as hell, burst single handedly carried my baby acc through the current slime spam chamber
@rona0427 yesterday

Pretty good tier list all things considered. The “niche” tier kinda makes zero sense; I get that you felt like you had to add it because the list has no stipulations, but some of the characters in niche can easily be added to other tiers if you just built in stipulations to the list. Since having Itto and Xiao in the same tier is both confusing and not really good design; Xiao being by far and away the better unit when both have their premium “niche” teams.
@devam8192 yesterday

The only point I would disagree with is Childe being powercrept by nuvie considering there teams dont even clash in anyway. If anything Nuvie increased childe usage a lil bit by making him a support.
@FormerEmiliaBestWifi yesterday

Furina is still the best character ever both story and gameplay-wise and I refuse to believe any of the Natlan characters will top that. (Let me cope)
@_.___.._ yesterday

Here before people come crying over their characters not being rated as top tier
@kian-ganji yesterday

I haven't watched the video yet but If Neuvillette doesn't have his own DPS tier then the list isn't listings
@Otherface yesterday

I'm kinda surprised that Traveler wasn't even considered, but Aloy, a 3* character, at least made a cameo.
@pradyumnarout8402 yesterday

Eula was done dirty sadge
@harrygreenhalgh8929 yesterday

i feel like nilou shouldnt be considered niche seeing as she is one of the only 5stars who can make an amazing team with exculsivley free characters
@Foxfire-chan yesterday

This is the most cooked tier list I’ve seen in a while. The bias is so palpable that the accuracy rating is deplorable.
@buttermanaws4693 yesterday

Lets see how many wars get started over this
