I love that moment so much, because he's about to throw hands, then she holds her hand out like "gimme" and he looks so cute, confused for a second, and when she moves her hand again he mentally goes "okay mom" and hands it over 😂😂
Capitano's face is unknown as far as today. Pyro Archon (Mavuika) is a regular human (as all Pyro Archons are regular mortal humans) but she is an Archon, so she might be buffed by the position). We know Capitano is the Strongest (and first) Fatui Harbinger. So the power scale is gianourmous, but at the same time unknown for us.
The Archons have the Authorities of the corresponding Elemental Sovereigns, although they cannot use them to full extent. They also have the Gnoses, which amplify their elemental power, as well as collect the belief of the people and turn it into power. (Indemnitium & Oratrice in Fontaine, Akasha in Sumeru, possibly Contending Fire in Natlan, and likely Mora in Liyue) Most of the power in Natlan is funneled into keeping the Abyss at bay however, so it's unknown how much Mavuika herself uses
@@_dragonflies_gnosis only turn belief into energy You need some way to turn energy into power Focalor is an example of turn the energy inside gnosis into power While to zhongli, those energy only used to create mora Venti and ei doesn’t need more energy so gnosis useless to them Nahida only need gnosis to using the amplify elemental to help her acess deeper to irminsul and the energy to running akasha Basically, gnosis basic use is a battery
Capitano is the 1st of the Fatui harbingers. It is said the highest ranked members have a power level comparable to a god. Mavuika is the god of Natlan so being relatively evenly matched does match the information we've been given in game so far.
Essentially, this is a fight between an Archon and a Harbinger. The last time that happened, with Signora (ranked #8) and Raiden Ei, Signora was killed in one shot. The top 3 Harbingers are aaid to be of comparable strength to that of gods, meaning they can put up a fight against gods. In this case, it's Mavuika the Pyro Archon (God of War), and ruler of Natlan, versus Il Capitano, "The Captain" ranked 1st and strongest of the Fatui Harbingers. Natlan has been in a long fight against the Abyss ever since the great cataclysm 500 years ago, and the Pyro Archon has a last-ditch plan to save the nation from the Abyss. Capitano seems to deem her plan as unfeasible, and sees himself as the person who should take charge to stop the Abyss. Mavuika is a normal human who ascended to Archonhood, (she wasn't born into divinity), meaning she has the strength of a god but not the immortality. We know next to nothing about Capitano other than the fact that he likes a fair fight, and that there may be an unusual presence in him. As far as powerscaling, they're basically even. Powerwcaling Genshin isn't particularly clear though, so it's hard to judge Mavuika's strength compared to other Archons due to lack of recorded feats (we don't know a lot about her) In the end, Capitano's escape was not exactly his decision, the icy mist came from a member of the "Masters of the Night-Wind" as Mavuika says, which is one of the six tribes of Natlan. The mysterious rescuer seems to have deemed Capitano's injury too severe to end the fight cleanly.
It is said that the Pyro Archon is the strongest of all of them, right now I don't remember what characters have said that, but I have the vague memory that it was said outside Natlan too, as Natlan is the land of the war, warriors and heroes. It seems that the throne is the strongest of all, independently of the Archons. And no, they are not even, they are on the same level but not even. We must consider that Mavuika wasn't using all, as she just decided at that moment that she would use her power of Archon to keep the flame on. I am a Capitano fan, but he is not even, and this fight is just an example of that, and that's not even considering what I just said xD
@Shinom4ever Nah. Mavuika isn't even a god, and she is only above Archons like Venti and Nahida in power. Zhongli and Ei are much more powerful, and it's not even close. Mavuika got exhausted during this fight. Both are humans, and one has the authority of an Archon yet barely managed to destroy an arena. Meanwhile, Zhongli (Morax) back in the Archon war was throwing down mountain sized spears to kill multiple gods and created an island out of them. Raiden killed the snake god Orobashi in one shot that sliced an island in half and her will alone created a giant storm over an island and her main domain. She also fought against the Shogun for 500 years straight with no rest, and it was said that the fight generated enough energy to evaporate the oceans of Teyvat. And Raiden is currently still in her prime. Mavuika doesn't even come close, she can't even live longer than a regular human and is much weaker than ACTUAL Archons, aka the gods. Holding the postion of Archon doesn't make her a god in the literal sense like the other 6 Archons.
that's about the way I interpreted things regarding Mavuika and Capitano when i played through both acts, that's a well put description 👍Many out there didn't really play or read what Mavuika said, or saw that very last scene of Captain and "???" (Most likely Ororon) conversation, and were too hasty to spam their opinion saying "Capitano lost - Capitano L - Capitano ran away, Coward??", at this point that's just people acting like those two NPC's in the 2nd act 😂
@@Shinom4everI bet you that Capitano is stronger than Mavuika and on the rematch he’s going to end up obliterating her (based on the fact that natlan’s storyline is all about death and reincarnation). Capitano didn’t even use his second phase let alone his Delusion + he’s speculated to be carrying an internal injury that he’s seeking to cure. Whereas whilst Mavuika still has more to show, it must be noted from her form change that she used a lot of her archon power. There’s a reason Capitano is known as the strongest human in teyvat despite the fact that the archon of natlan is always a human ascended to archonhood
@@hamzaafc06 Capitano is the strongest based on fatui, as Mavuika is the strongest Pyro Archon based on Natlan's memory. Also... why are you talking about Delusions? As far as we know, the only one who uses a Delusion is Tartaglia. Signora used to seal her rage, not to actually power her up, and considering how Arlequino don't use one (what we saw is her curse), neither Scaramuccia, considering all Fatui use one would be a great mistake. Also, Mavuika literally said that she will use all of her Archon power to reignite the "eternal flame" and seconds after Capitano appears. The fact that her hair changes doesn't mean that she is using any percentage of her power, but that she is actually using it. You know... like when the Pyro slimes don't have Pyro on them until they "engage". How can you explain that she is able to still maintain the "eternal flame" (I don't remember the name right now) afterward if she used "a lot of her archon power". And of course on the rematch Capitano will win, she has lost the power of the Pyro Archon, or "lend it". Also, you misinterpreted what was said, he was injured in battle, but the "internal problem" will be more related to him being probably from 500 years ago considering his knowledge about a "promise" that only the heroes of the Archon know. I mean, it is obvious that he is from Natlan after seeing him having the "Natlan glow" (I don't know what name they decided in English). Also Mavuika said something like "It doesn't sound like it is related to the Tzaritza", so it has personal relevance for him. Saying that any of these motives makes Capitano "weaker", means he was always weaker than Mavuika because he is what he is even with this condition. Capitano is not Signiora or Dotore, he was described as being an "honorable warrior", he probably knew that Mavuika would lose her power if he waited a few seconds... Why would he want to face her when she still had the power of the throne, and not use all his strength in an honorable duel? It makes no sense considering all we know of him, the fact that he didn't fight with all his strength. You want a crazy theory? Capitano is related to Mavuika, as he will probably have a relation with her sister. After what they did with SAM in Star Rail, I will not be surprise if he is her sister in one way or another.
Capitano is supposedly the strongest human in teyvat and Mavuika is, well, the pyro archon, she's kind of also a human but has buffs from the gnosis(?) and the sacred flame. During the fight Capitano got help from someone so he could fly, so both they're VERY strong and also both kinda had help. Without the sacred flame Mavuika is most likely weaker concidering it almost ended in a draw. That also puts into scale how strong Capitano is.
Just want to say, doesn't seem like Capitano was willingly retreating here. He was still ready to throw hands 3:50, look at him raising a fist like he is ready to fight on. It is revealed that this was not his own power but someone else's that made him escape here
L is an L He accepts it by the end by stating that the little trick saved him Have some honour to accept defeat. Captain once said , " victory and defeat are not outcomes, they are rules "
as far as power scaling goes, we know from Nahida that the top 3 ranked Fatui Harbingers have enough power to “rival the gods”! although it’s important to keep in mind that “gods” is actually a pretty broad category in genshin as it includes not only crazy strong Archons like Ei and Zhongli but also other gods like Orabashi and Havria who were weaker in comparison… Mavuika is a bit of a special case among “gods” but from what we’ve seen of her so far i don’t think it’s off-base to assume she’s on the stronger end of the spectrum… and since Capitano is ranked as the 1st of the harbingers and held his own pretty well against her in battle (all things considered) we can also safetly assume he’s pretty powerful!
Nahida heavily implied "gods" being Archon-level, not weaklings like Orobashi and Havria. Strong vision users can easily kill these 2, such as Kaeya and Diluc. You dont even need Tartaglia. Dottore literally proves her point when he himself noted that Nahida's abilities are nowhere near his, so she resorted to negotiating with him for the 2 gnoses. The top 3 are easily at least Mid-archon level at base and High-Archon level with Delusion.
@sof7111 Venti was clearly bluffing when he said an archon's strength comes from people's faith. He himself is far more powerful than Nahida, Egeria, Focalors, and Mavuika. He literally lifted an entire mountain off itself and forged the entire Golden Apple Archipelago. Also merely surviving the archon war is not impressive whatsoever. Orobashi has literally Zero feats that make him strong. People like Ganyu and Xiao are also complete fodder, that's a fact most of you cannot accept.
"She's already gauged his power"- Capitano has a reputation. He's the First of the Fatui Harbingers, with strength to rival a God's. Mauvika knew who he was the second he showed himself, and him being in the area was already known about, too. So needless to say she didn't need to do much thinking to know that Kinich and Iansan weren't going to be able to do anything to him. She knew already that she was the only one who could match him or hope to defeat him.
Btw they hid some context because it’s a video and not ingame. At 5:25 when they show his ‘face’ in the game they also tell us his name and tell us that his is the highest rank of the Fatui harbingers
that was an awesome reaction i love it when people react to stuff that they have knowledge about, listening to what they have to say is amazing and makes me appreciate the art even more
2:36 They are one of the strongest people in genshin lore not the strongest, There are still stronger characters like Neuvillette, Zhongli, Ei, Dainsleif and Skirk as of now etc.
Although there are powers above them (like The 4 Shades of Primordial One,Five Great Sinners and Dragon Sovereigns etc),these two are indeed some of the strongest individuals of the story The knight helmet person is "Il Capitano" who is Rank 1 of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers while the opponent is the Goddess of War Mavuika who holds the authority of the pyro element as its archon.
Capitano is ranked number 1 from the 11 Fatui Harbingers and they are numbered after their combat prowess so he's supposed to be pretty strong, He's also regarded as the strongest human in Teyvat Among the Fatui the only person that could be stronger than him might be the Tsaritsa, the Cryo Archon, but we don't know about that yet.
quick note, though it's probably been said quite a bit. Mavuika is the Pyro Archon, essentially the god of flame. Il Capitano is the first of the Fatui Harbringers; basically the second most powerful person from the nation of ice. I know there's a lot more lore to it, but I agree with a lot of what you said about the sound design and cinematography of the whole scene
This animation is a good showing of the peak of strength in Genshin but I'd also recommend watching Cyno vs Sethos because that's a good showing of the peak combat for playable vision bearers and probably the best choreography in a Genshin cutscene.
Currently, probably the strongest characters. Feel like this one was more of a draw but since Cap got "rescued" by that mist unwillingly we don't know how it would had ended if they kept going. I have some lore and story points to give an idea how strong are some characters. GENERAL STORY SPOILERS BELOW ... ... ... ... ... -Mavuika is probably the Archon we've seen use their full power more (does she have more up her sleeve? We don't know yet). She's not a god but a human ascended to godlike powers. -Many Archons have been eroded nowdays, but Zhongli and Venti in their prime were absolute monsters, Raiden still kinda is but she usually stays in the Plane of Euthymia and lets her puppet fight (still busted, it killed Signora, even if weakened by the fight with us). -We have no idea what Focalors and Rukkhadevata (who?) effective power range was. -Nahida is just baby and her power isn't really used for fighting herself, she can basically put you in a dream loop. And Furina is a normal human with a Vision so her abilities are on par with other Vision possessing humans. -The only unaccounted Archon is the Tsarista and we know absolutely nothing about her safe maybe she can freeze an entire palace in a couple seconds as seen in Winter Night Lazzo (if that was even her doing we just don't know). -Neuvillette with his Dragon Sovereign authority restored is probably one of the strongest characters currently, but we just need to see how he fares against Archons or Harbingers. -Now, as for Fatui, Capitano is hella strong, he 100% has a transformation like other Harbingers and hasn't shown his full power yet, he was clearly ready to duke it down more if the mist hadn't yoinked him away. -Dottore is very smart and dangerous but we haven't seen him fight yet. -Arlecchino is scary, she was absolutely unbothered by the Traveler and the Children of the Hearth coming at her at the same time, we still haven't seen her fight "higher" powers like another current Harbinger or an Archon but she did demolish the previous Knave at 16 years old. -Scaramouche (who?) was very durable but probably weaker offensively compared to other top ranker Harbingers. His false god form was incredibly strong but we don't know how it would had fared against other Archons. -Signora was strong enough to absolutely body Venti (again, weakened by erosion consideredly nowdays), but she lost to Travaler back in Inazuma then got ashed by Raden's puppet so she's probably on the weaker side. Still wrecks normal vision wearers probably. -Tartag loves to fight against stronger foes, he's definitely strong but pre-dragon sovereign Neuvillette absolutely destroys him mid Foul Legacy transformation. He has incredible endurance seeing as he fought with the Narwhal for an incredible amount of time in the Primordial Sea. -We have no way of knowing how strong Pierro, Columbina, Pulcinella, Sandrone and Pantalone since we've seen basically nothing of them yet, but based on the rankings we can presume their power level is more or less similar to their peers.
interesting.. this was pure unbiased reaction and as natural (this cc is here for animation technicalities of course, admiring the work of art and not just the product itself)
According to the updates in lore due to the newest drop: *spoilers if youve not completed it. . . . . Capitano is a commander from Kanri'ah, which tracks why hes got more of a trained 'guard' stance as opposed to a human fighting because they HAVE to in order to survive. According to both Mauvika and Capitano, NEITHER of them were using the full scope of their abilities in that fight, and were very evenly matched. "Victory would've simply come down to who wanted it more" (Mauvika) And as Capitano is a survivor of Kanri'ah, he suffers from a curse as all Kanri'ans do that his flesh deteriorates. We see this on Dainsleif and Kaeya as well. According to the Captain, his flesh is rotted to the point beyond recognition to someone he served under IN Kanri'ah (the twins) his helmet is a permanent fixture as hes likely just muscle and bones underneath.
About the power scaling, all the gods are very powerful in their prime, but Mavuika, the current Pyro Archon, is actually human. In Natlan humans are chosen to be Archons - yet we still don’t know alot. So yes, she is insanely powerful for what she actually is. But in this scene, Mavuika had actually lost an amount of power earlier, so she was also quite “weak” from what she normally is. Capitano, the one wielding ice wasn’t at his full power either. So this fight is actually not their full potential!
Power scaling is unknown. We know capitano is #1 in the ranks of the Harbinger, below Pierro who is the Director(thus is capitano’s boss). That said. We don’t know if for example Columbina is stronger and is lacking in some other manner or withholding power, the doctor from sheer intellect, knowledge, and breadth of research could always pull ahead in strength. We also don’t really know if the ranks are dictated by strength because we got a dude Pantalone who doesn’t even have a vision. We beat up the wanderer but haven’t seen Sandrone who is lower ranking than him…. But fought Arlecchino (and lost spectacularly) and have not fought the Rooster. Then the Tsaritsa also sits far above Capitano assuming she is the strongest, and again this is not factoring in any dragons , hexenzerkel, Sinners, those beyond the stars, the abyss. Heck we haven’t even seen Zhongli fight really so we don’t know how strong he is in comparison to the pyro archon. as far as depicted fights, this is the highest power leveled fight thus far.,,,, if you ignore the beginning because that chick would probably wipe the floor with capitano.
I really love your reactions and the way you dive into the language of animation and film-making. It adds another charm to the experience! I hope you can react to “ A Parade of Providence Event Cutscene Animation: "Crown of Glory" on genshin’s official channel“. It’s one of my favorite cutscenes from events, especially Wanderer and Cyno’s part. I really would like to see your take on it (fun fact : on each scene, the song playing in the background is the displayed character’s theme song) Keep up the good work!
Well for context on the power scale though.. later capitano and mavuika talk and capitano says after mavuika commended him on his fighting that he got weaker and he could ve given her a real fight 500 years ago.. how much truth there is to that i dont know.
Lore question answered: Capitano doesn't necessarily need the gnosis to complete whatever his personal goal is, but he is obligated to retrieve for the Tsaritsa as a member of the Fatui. I guess the easiest way to describe it is he is free to do basically whatever he pleases and use fatui resources for his personal goals, but he must get the gnosis as payment for the resources and freedom. ps. I love the game but do not claim to be absolutely perfect with the lore so I do apologise if I made any mistakes in my explanation. This is how I interrupted the information we've been given.
Omg I love your reaction to these!! It's always so fun to watch. Can you check out Wanderer's "Divine Will" and "Ashes" teasers? They're my personal favorites and I think you'll like them too! Awesome work keep it up!!
It's hard to say what the powerscaling is since genshin never seems to give us much info, and we can only go off of direct battles between characters. The only hint is that the Fatui Harbingers are said to rival the gods in power when it comes to their top three ranks (which would be Columbina, Dottore, and Il Capitano). When it comes to this fight though, some extra details in the archive note that Mauvika was fighting at her full strength while capitano likely has more abilities he has yet to show (pretty much all harbingers have at least a second form/transformation). On top of that, Capitano was actually going to continue the fight with the pyro archon, but someone else stepped in with the mist. So I think the verdict on who's stronger is still out.
I bekieve while mavuika went all out she had to keep the destructive force down and therefore concentrate her attacks so in a way she was holding back just not in terms of raw strength
I personally think the Harbingers being just as strong as the archons is sort of a plot hole. It could mean that they don't even have to follow or respect the Tsaritsa. For all we know, the Tsaritsa was assassinated by them.
The Tsaritsa wants the Gnoses so she can take on Celestia this is the final one she needs I guess we will find out eventually whether she is friend or foe but she will undoubtedly be powerful with all 7 gnoses
Before that tho, if the theory about MC gaining the pyro elemwmt through the gnosis is true,then my additional theory is that if the traveler can get hold (even for a moment) of the 7 gnosis then maybe he will gain the 7 elemwnts in their full form (archon level powers) and maybe it eill also pave the way to him having his originalowets restored.
You should watch the one who posted by other content creators. The introduction of Capitano with Name and his description display on the screen was so sick
as far as strength lorewise goes, these two are not the top rankers...they are respectably high, but not up top...despite capitano being ranked 1 as harbingers. There are sovereigns like Apep(once she heals fully) and Neuvilette, other archons who still possess their former might(like Ei and Morax), the archons who just have pure hax abilities like Nahida(i mean yes she cannot contend one on one with them but her abilities are lowkey crazy..she is someone that you want to take out first before she even has a chance to do anything or its too late), then there is Lumine/abyss sibling, Dainsleif, the Hexenzirkel witches some of which have freakishly strong abilities, the likes of 5 sinners. And that is everyone we have seen so far. There is Pierro whose strength is unknown. Perhaps Venti is hiding his strength. Albedo has the potential to be a catastrophe. Tsaritsa probably aint a combatant, but as an archon it is not wise to undermine her. Azhdaha who still lives..and this doesnt even takes into account the celestial gods like the Primordial one, sustainer of heavenly principles, Istaroth. Other sovereign dragons and the dragon king who are immortal, and like neuvilette would be reborn if dead anyway. So yea..while the harbingers are a strong force..with top 3 even being godlike, there are levels to "Gods", and there is no saying that the top three harbingers can contend with the upper echleon of the gods. Infact Mavuika is NOT a strong "archon". I mean, she is a combatant so she does gets to display her explosive power more than what Venti or Nahida did, but when it comes down to it, in the end she is not a GODLIKE archon.
Ei and the raiden shogun would one shot both of these. I wanna point out that the fight was a tie and he was taken by a traitor from one of her clans without his consent.
I wanna see y’all Recreate Outlaw Brothers Kung fu movie into a Male Extended short film & We Definitely want More Fighting short films please wit Kung Fu Drunken Fist wit a Male lead & Two Twin Brothers Fist to Fist Combat
I think the fight is a bit too fast and flashy, when I watched it first time, my eye is a bit uncomfortable and hard to digest what is happening. For power scale in lore, I think Neuvillette >= Zhong Li > Raiden Ei > Mavuika > Capitano > other Fatui Harbingers
"These are the strongest people in genshin right?" Venti slicing mountains with his wind 👀 Zhongli throwing mountains at Venti because of an argument 👀 Ei slicing islands in half 👀 All the other characters like the Hexenzirkel, the Sinners, and the Dragons 👀
There are a lot of people stronger than them. Primordial one, 4 shades, 5 sinners, all the Archon's who fought in the Archon War, Dragon Sovereigns. If the battle's scale is to be considered which was limited to the stadium (provided that Mavuika was saving the stadium too) then they're nowhere near defeating actual 1000 year old gods
@@Nagatomo158 I fully agree. Although they are strong, they don't come close to feats that actual Archons, aka the gods of Teyvat, have accomplished in the past. Such as Ei slicing an island in half, fighting for 500 years straight with no rest with power equivalent to vaporizing the oceans, and creating a huge island sized storm with her will alone. Or Zhongli, who threw down mountain sized spears and created an island in the process. There are just a few examples of what actual gods in Teyvat can do.
This fight is basically between the Strongest Human Alive No.1 of the Fatui Harbingers vs the actual God of War and this fight happened while the Archon was on a weaker state because shenanigans happened and it seems that they are on equal standings and still clap his ass says a lot about the power scaling, how a human was almost on par with a god of this world.
@@vincentaguilar7011 Mavuika isn't a god though. This fight is more strongest human vs human with Archon title. She's isn't really a real Archon. She just holds the title of one. She's not a god like the other 6.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 The only requirement to being an archon is having the gnosis and the divine seat. Focalors and Venti weren't born as gods but still rose to have god-like powers
@BlascoClips But unlike Mavuika, they both ascended to god-hood. Mavuika is still only human. She's basically just a human with above average power with the title of an Archon. So, she's not really an Archon but serves her nation as one.
There's some weird things going on here. His loss (in theory it's a tie, but the Capitan left the fight wounded, so not really) makes no sense plot wise. Pyro Archon gives off many red flags for being a potential secret villain in the story.
Personally i do not like this scene from a narrative side, it feels lackluster for the character of capitano, just shows up, fights, retreats, feels like he was there only to hype up Mavuika before she gives up her power.
We still aren't aware of his true goal and the plan of the fatui. He didn't retreat willingly, he was ready to fight to the end, but the other natlan character rescued him for a yet unknown reason because he was injured/about to likely lose. And him not going after her while she's weakened is peak gigachad behavior. I feel like this fight really showcased the power and personality of both of these characters and feels like it's going to become a major plot point in the future archon quests. If we really never saw the near full power of the archon from the nation of war then what would've even been the point, y'know.
I think that is not the narrative here. Captino accuses her of failing to fulfill her oath from 500 years ago. It sounded personal. I do believe she felt it was personal as well, do to her response. "I don't know what you mean. But it sounds like this is about more than the Tsaritsa" I do believe it has something to do with his real identity.
He did not retreat willingly, it is also stated by Capitanos ally that Mavuika could have dispersed the smoke effortlessly but chose not to, therefore she didnt want to continue the fight.
basically they aren't even close to the strongests in the verse the current strongest character lore wise is Neuvillette, he's a dragon and just so you have an idea, think of it like archons get their powers from dragons, so a dragon is way more powerful than an archon can be. Afterwards, it's a debate between morax and tsaritsa for the most part.
@@FynO1 Not confirmed? Wdym? 🤣 They are literally the creators of Teyvat and the Archons. They straight-up beat the Dragon Sovereigns. Are you not caught up in the lore? Sounds like you need to do some more research my guy.

I still can’t get over mavuika stealing and breaking kinich’s claymore 😂
Don't worry, we got one for free and is crafteable 😛
Must be the reason why he got his signature weapon 😂😂😂
I love that moment so much, because he's about to throw hands, then she holds her hand out like "gimme" and he looks so cute, confused for a second, and when she moves her hand again he mentally goes "okay mom" and hands it over 😂😂
There's a funny parody where he's holding his signature weapon instead of the crafted and just flat-out refuses and runs away...
That claymore has some pyro related attributes. Have there been any craftable weapons that manage to compliment an Archon's playstyle?
Capitano's face is unknown as far as today. Pyro Archon (Mavuika) is a regular human (as all Pyro Archons are regular mortal humans) but she is an Archon, so she might be buffed by the position). We know Capitano is the Strongest (and first) Fatui Harbinger. So the power scale is gianourmous, but at the same time unknown for us.
She said she is buffed by the sacred flame
Plus even if she's a mortal she still should have the authority
The Archons have the Authorities of the corresponding Elemental Sovereigns, although they cannot use them to full extent.
They also have the Gnoses, which amplify their elemental power, as well as collect the belief of the people and turn it into power. (Indemnitium & Oratrice in Fontaine, Akasha in Sumeru, possibly Contending Fire in Natlan, and likely Mora in Liyue)
Most of the power in Natlan is funneled into keeping the Abyss at bay however, so it's unknown how much Mavuika herself uses
she has the elemental authority over pyro because she is an archon. also maybe gnosis?
@@_dragonflies_gnosis only turn belief into energy
You need some way to turn energy into power
Focalor is an example of turn the energy inside gnosis into power
While to zhongli, those energy only used to create mora
Venti and ei doesn’t need more energy so gnosis useless to them
Nahida only need gnosis to using the amplify elemental to help her acess deeper to irminsul and the energy to running akasha
Basically, gnosis basic use is a battery
Capitano is the 1st of the Fatui harbingers. It is said the highest ranked members have a power level comparable to a god. Mavuika is the god of Natlan so being relatively evenly matched does match the information we've been given in game so far.
Essentially, this is a fight between an Archon and a Harbinger.
The last time that happened, with Signora (ranked #8) and Raiden Ei, Signora was killed in one shot.
The top 3 Harbingers are aaid to be of comparable strength to that of gods, meaning they can put up a fight against gods.
In this case, it's Mavuika the Pyro Archon (God of War), and ruler of Natlan, versus Il Capitano, "The Captain" ranked 1st and strongest of the Fatui Harbingers.
Natlan has been in a long fight against the Abyss ever since the great cataclysm 500 years ago, and the Pyro Archon has a last-ditch plan to save the nation from the Abyss. Capitano seems to deem her plan as unfeasible, and sees himself as the person who should take charge to stop the Abyss.
Mavuika is a normal human who ascended to Archonhood, (she wasn't born into divinity), meaning she has the strength of a god but not the immortality. We know next to nothing about Capitano other than the fact that he likes a fair fight, and that there may be an unusual presence in him.
As far as powerscaling, they're basically even.
Powerwcaling Genshin isn't particularly clear though, so it's hard to judge Mavuika's strength compared to other Archons due to lack of recorded feats (we don't know a lot about her)
In the end, Capitano's escape was not exactly his decision, the icy mist came from a member of the "Masters of the Night-Wind" as Mavuika says, which is one of the six tribes of Natlan. The mysterious rescuer seems to have deemed Capitano's injury too severe to end the fight cleanly.
It is said that the Pyro Archon is the strongest of all of them, right now I don't remember what characters have said that, but I have the vague memory that it was said outside Natlan too, as Natlan is the land of the war, warriors and heroes. It seems that the throne is the strongest of all, independently of the Archons.
And no, they are not even, they are on the same level but not even. We must consider that Mavuika wasn't using all, as she just decided at that moment that she would use her power of Archon to keep the flame on. I am a Capitano fan, but he is not even, and this fight is just an example of that, and that's not even considering what I just said xD
@Shinom4ever Nah. Mavuika isn't even a god, and she is only above Archons like Venti and Nahida in power. Zhongli and Ei are much more powerful, and it's not even close. Mavuika got exhausted during this fight. Both are humans, and one has the authority of an Archon yet barely managed to destroy an arena. Meanwhile, Zhongli (Morax) back in the Archon war was throwing down mountain sized spears to kill multiple gods and created an island out of them. Raiden killed the snake god Orobashi in one shot that sliced an island in half and her will alone created a giant storm over an island and her main domain. She also fought against the Shogun for 500 years straight with no rest, and it was said that the fight generated enough energy to evaporate the oceans of Teyvat. And Raiden is currently still in her prime. Mavuika doesn't even come close, she can't even live longer than a regular human and is much weaker than ACTUAL Archons, aka the gods. Holding the postion of Archon doesn't make her a god in the literal sense like the other 6 Archons.
that's about the way I interpreted things regarding Mavuika and Capitano when i played through both acts, that's a well put description 👍Many out there didn't really play or read what Mavuika said, or saw that very last scene of Captain and "???" (Most likely Ororon) conversation, and were too hasty to spam their opinion saying "Capitano lost - Capitano L - Capitano ran away, Coward??", at this point that's just people acting like those two NPC's in the 2nd act 😂
@@Shinom4everI bet you that Capitano is stronger than Mavuika and on the rematch he’s going to end up obliterating her (based on the fact that natlan’s storyline is all about death and reincarnation). Capitano didn’t even use his second phase let alone his Delusion + he’s speculated to be carrying an internal injury that he’s seeking to cure. Whereas whilst Mavuika still has more to show, it must be noted from her form change that she used a lot of her archon power. There’s a reason Capitano is known as the strongest human in teyvat despite the fact that the archon of natlan is always a human ascended to archonhood
@@hamzaafc06 Capitano is the strongest based on fatui, as Mavuika is the strongest Pyro Archon based on Natlan's memory. Also... why are you talking about Delusions? As far as we know, the only one who uses a Delusion is Tartaglia. Signora used to seal her rage, not to actually power her up, and considering how Arlequino don't use one (what we saw is her curse), neither Scaramuccia, considering all Fatui use one would be a great mistake.
Also, Mavuika literally said that she will use all of her Archon power to reignite the "eternal flame" and seconds after Capitano appears. The fact that her hair changes doesn't mean that she is using any percentage of her power, but that she is actually using it. You know... like when the Pyro slimes don't have Pyro on them until they "engage". How can you explain that she is able to still maintain the "eternal flame" (I don't remember the name right now) afterward if she used "a lot of her archon power".
And of course on the rematch Capitano will win, she has lost the power of the Pyro Archon, or "lend it". Also, you misinterpreted what was said, he was injured in battle, but the "internal problem" will be more related to him being probably from 500 years ago considering his knowledge about a "promise" that only the heroes of the Archon know. I mean, it is obvious that he is from Natlan after seeing him having the "Natlan glow" (I don't know what name they decided in English). Also Mavuika said something like "It doesn't sound like it is related to the Tzaritza", so it has personal relevance for him.
Saying that any of these motives makes Capitano "weaker", means he was always weaker than Mavuika because he is what he is even with this condition. Capitano is not Signiora or Dotore, he was described as being an "honorable warrior", he probably knew that Mavuika would lose her power if he waited a few seconds... Why would he want to face her when she still had the power of the throne, and not use all his strength in an honorable duel? It makes no sense considering all we know of him, the fact that he didn't fight with all his strength.
You want a crazy theory? Capitano is related to Mavuika, as he will probably have a relation with her sister. After what they did with SAM in Star Rail, I will not be surprise if he is her sister in one way or another.
Capitano is supposedly the strongest human in teyvat and Mavuika is, well, the pyro archon, she's kind of also a human but has buffs from the gnosis(?) and the sacred flame. During the fight Capitano got help from someone so he could fly, so both they're VERY strong and also both kinda had help. Without the sacred flame Mavuika is most likely weaker concidering it almost ended in a draw. That also puts into scale how strong Capitano is.
You might also enjoy Kachina vs Mualani fight scene from the same patch. A bit more storyful, a bit less action, though.
"God-Killing Military General vs The God of War." This is the powerscale
Just want to say, doesn't seem like Capitano was willingly retreating here. He was still ready to throw hands
3:50, look at him raising a fist like he is ready to fight on. It is revealed that this was not his own power but someone else's that made him escape here
yep
Yeah people just assume it but what mavuika put in capitano chest weakened him
Correct, one of his underlings caused the smokescreen/mist
L is an L
He accepts it by the end by stating that the little trick saved him
Have some honour to accept defeat.
Captain once said , " victory and defeat are not outcomes, they are rules "
Yes someone elses smokescreen, but he still willing retreated once he noticed it
11:49 I always love it when we only see the impact from the clash from two powerful characters in an animation
as far as power scaling goes, we know from Nahida that the top 3 ranked Fatui Harbingers have enough power to “rival the gods”! although it’s important to keep in mind that “gods” is actually a pretty broad category in genshin as it includes not only crazy strong Archons like Ei and Zhongli but also other gods like Orabashi and Havria who were weaker in comparison… Mavuika is a bit of a special case among “gods” but from what we’ve seen of her so far i don’t think it’s off-base to assume she’s on the stronger end of the spectrum… and since Capitano is ranked as the 1st of the harbingers and held his own pretty well against her in battle (all things considered) we can also safetly assume he’s pretty powerful!
Nahida heavily implied "gods" being Archon-level, not weaklings like Orobashi and Havria. Strong vision users can easily kill these 2, such as Kaeya and Diluc. You dont even need Tartaglia. Dottore literally proves her point when he himself noted that Nahida's abilities are nowhere near his, so she resorted to negotiating with him for the 2 gnoses. The top 3 are easily at least Mid-archon level at base and High-Archon level with Delusion.
@sof7111 Venti was clearly bluffing when he said an archon's strength comes from people's faith. He himself is far more powerful than Nahida, Egeria, Focalors, and Mavuika. He literally lifted an entire mountain off itself and forged the entire Golden Apple Archipelago. Also merely surviving the archon war is not impressive whatsoever. Orobashi has literally Zero feats that make him strong. People like Ganyu and Xiao are also complete fodder, that's a fact most of you cannot accept.
@@Irelian_Sol I didn't hear Nahida said anything about "Archon-level".
@@suppasitchotisasiton8719 That's why I used the word 'implied"
"She's already gauged his power"- Capitano has a reputation. He's the First of the Fatui Harbingers, with strength to rival a God's. Mauvika knew who he was the second he showed himself, and him being in the area was already known about, too. So needless to say she didn't need to do much thinking to know that Kinich and Iansan weren't going to be able to do anything to him. She knew already that she was the only one who could match him or hope to defeat him.
Btw they hid some context because it’s a video and not ingame. At 5:25 when they show his ‘face’ in the game they also tell us his name and tell us that his is the highest rank of the Fatui harbingers
I love the pyro archon’s animation. Especially her hair.
that was an awesome reaction i love it when people react to stuff that they have knowledge about, listening to what they have to say is amazing and makes me appreciate the art even more
2:36 They are one of the strongest people in genshin lore not the strongest, There are still stronger characters like Neuvillette, Zhongli, Ei, Dainsleif and Skirk as of now etc.
Although there are powers above them (like The 4 Shades of Primordial One,Five Great Sinners and Dragon Sovereigns etc),these two are indeed some of the strongest individuals of the story
The knight helmet person is "Il Capitano" who is Rank 1 of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers while the opponent is the Goddess of War Mavuika who holds the authority of the pyro element as its archon.
Reminding everyone that Capitano’s English VA also voiced Gundham Tanaka in Danganronpa 2
Capitano is ranked number 1 from the 11 Fatui Harbingers and they are numbered after their combat prowess so he's supposed to be pretty strong, He's also regarded as the strongest human in Teyvat
Among the Fatui the only person that could be stronger than him might be the Tsaritsa, the Cryo Archon, but we don't know about that yet.
quick note, though it's probably been said quite a bit. Mavuika is the Pyro Archon, essentially the god of flame. Il Capitano is the first of the Fatui Harbringers; basically the second most powerful person from the nation of ice. I know there's a lot more lore to it, but I agree with a lot of what you said about the sound design and cinematography of the whole scene
This animation is a good showing of the peak of strength in Genshin but I'd also recommend watching Cyno vs Sethos because that's a good showing of the peak combat for playable vision bearers and probably the best choreography in a Genshin cutscene.
I had waiting for this! I love your content and level of sophistication in your videos ❤
Currently, probably the strongest characters. Feel like this one was more of a draw but since Cap got "rescued" by that mist unwillingly we don't know how it would had ended if they kept going. I have some lore and story points to give an idea how strong are some characters.
GENERAL STORY SPOILERS BELOW
...
...
...
...
...
-Mavuika is probably the Archon we've seen use their full power more (does she have more up her sleeve? We don't know yet). She's not a god but a human ascended to godlike powers.
-Many Archons have been eroded nowdays, but Zhongli and Venti in their prime were absolute monsters, Raiden still kinda is but she usually stays in the Plane of Euthymia and lets her puppet fight (still busted, it killed Signora, even if weakened by the fight with us).
-We have no idea what Focalors and Rukkhadevata (who?) effective power range was.
-Nahida is just baby and her power isn't really used for fighting herself, she can basically put you in a dream loop. And Furina is a normal human with a Vision so her abilities are on par with other Vision possessing humans.
-The only unaccounted Archon is the Tsarista and we know absolutely nothing about her safe maybe she can freeze an entire palace in a couple seconds as seen in Winter Night Lazzo (if that was even her doing we just don't know).
-Neuvillette with his Dragon Sovereign authority restored is probably one of the strongest characters currently, but we just need to see how he fares against Archons or Harbingers.
-Now, as for Fatui, Capitano is hella strong, he 100% has a transformation like other Harbingers and hasn't shown his full power yet, he was clearly ready to duke it down more if the mist hadn't yoinked him away.
-Dottore is very smart and dangerous but we haven't seen him fight yet.
-Arlecchino is scary, she was absolutely unbothered by the Traveler and the Children of the Hearth coming at her at the same time, we still haven't seen her fight "higher" powers like another current Harbinger or an Archon but she did demolish the previous Knave at 16 years old.
-Scaramouche (who?) was very durable but probably weaker offensively compared to other top ranker Harbingers. His false god form was incredibly strong but we don't know how it would had fared against other Archons.
-Signora was strong enough to absolutely body Venti (again, weakened by erosion consideredly nowdays), but she lost to Travaler back in Inazuma then got ashed by Raden's puppet so she's probably on the weaker side. Still wrecks normal vision wearers probably.
-Tartag loves to fight against stronger foes, he's definitely strong but pre-dragon sovereign Neuvillette absolutely destroys him mid Foul Legacy transformation. He has incredible endurance seeing as he fought with the Narwhal for an incredible amount of time in the Primordial Sea.
-We have no way of knowing how strong Pierro, Columbina, Pulcinella, Sandrone and Pantalone since we've seen basically nothing of them yet, but based on the rankings we can presume their power level is more or less similar to their peers.
interesting.. this was pure unbiased reaction and as natural (this cc is here for animation technicalities of course, admiring the work of art and not just the product itself)
According to the updates in lore due to the newest drop:
*spoilers if youve not completed it.
.
.
.
.
Capitano is a commander from Kanri'ah, which tracks why hes got more of a trained 'guard' stance as opposed to a human fighting because they HAVE to in order to survive.
According to both Mauvika and Capitano, NEITHER of them were using the full scope of their abilities in that fight, and were very evenly matched. "Victory would've simply come down to who wanted it more" (Mauvika)
And as Capitano is a survivor of Kanri'ah, he suffers from a curse as all Kanri'ans do that his flesh deteriorates. We see this on Dainsleif and Kaeya as well. According to the Captain, his flesh is rotted to the point beyond recognition to someone he served under IN Kanri'ah (the twins) his helmet is a permanent fixture as hes likely just muscle and bones underneath.
"is there anyone that could take them?" *that's me i am the anyone*
About the power scaling, all the gods are very powerful in their prime, but Mavuika, the current Pyro Archon, is actually human. In Natlan humans are chosen to be Archons - yet we still don’t know alot. So yes, she is insanely powerful for what she actually is. But in this scene, Mavuika had actually lost an amount of power earlier, so she was also quite “weak” from what she normally is. Capitano, the one wielding ice wasn’t at his full power either. So this fight is actually not their full potential!
0:45 Kiniiiiich and his weapooon 😭💔
Power scaling is unknown. We know capitano is #1 in the ranks of the Harbinger, below Pierro who is the Director(thus is capitano’s boss). That said. We don’t know if for example Columbina is stronger and is lacking in some other manner or withholding power, the doctor from sheer intellect, knowledge, and breadth of research could always pull ahead in strength. We also don’t really know if the ranks are dictated by strength because we got a dude Pantalone who doesn’t even have a vision. We beat up the wanderer but haven’t seen Sandrone who is lower ranking than him…. But fought Arlecchino (and lost spectacularly) and have not fought the Rooster.
Then the Tsaritsa also sits far above Capitano assuming she is the strongest, and again this is not factoring in any dragons , hexenzerkel, Sinners, those beyond the stars, the abyss. Heck we haven’t even seen Zhongli fight really so we don’t know how strong he is in comparison to the pyro archon.
as far as depicted fights, this is the highest power leveled fight thus far.,,,, if you ignore the beginning because that chick would probably wipe the floor with capitano.
Devs said that the captain is the strongest harbinger in the fatui
If anything, the fire hair alone is suficient for me to be hooked on her character. My primogens will turn to dust on her banner. 😂😂😂❤
I really love your reactions and the way you dive into the language of animation and film-making. It adds another charm to the experience!
I hope you can react to “ A Parade of Providence Event Cutscene
Animation: "Crown of Glory" on genshin’s official channel“.
It’s one of my favorite cutscenes from events, especially Wanderer and Cyno’s part.
I really would like to see your take on it (fun fact : on each scene, the song playing in the background is the displayed character’s theme song)
Keep up the good work!
Well for context on the power scale though.. later capitano and mavuika talk and capitano says after mavuika commended him on his fighting that he got weaker and he could ve given her a real fight 500 years ago.. how much truth there is to that i dont know.
Lore question answered:
Capitano doesn't necessarily need the gnosis to complete whatever his personal goal is, but he is obligated to retrieve for the Tsaritsa as a member of the Fatui. I guess the easiest way to describe it is he is free to do basically whatever he pleases and use fatui resources for his personal goals, but he must get the gnosis as payment for the resources and freedom.
ps. I love the game but do not claim to be absolutely perfect with the lore so I do apologise if I made any mistakes in my explanation. This is how I interrupted the information we've been given.
Omg I love your reaction to these!! It's always so fun to watch. Can you check out Wanderer's "Divine Will" and "Ashes" teasers? They're my personal favorites and I think you'll like them too! Awesome work keep it up!!
personally I wouldn't trust a single person power scaling, it's nothing but speculation
They are powerful in the lore of Genshin but there are still others that out rank them
It's hard to say what the powerscaling is since genshin never seems to give us much info, and we can only go off of direct battles between characters. The only hint is that the Fatui Harbingers are said to rival the gods in power when it comes to their top three ranks (which would be Columbina, Dottore, and Il Capitano). When it comes to this fight though, some extra details in the archive note that Mauvika was fighting at her full strength while capitano likely has more abilities he has yet to show (pretty much all harbingers have at least a second form/transformation). On top of that, Capitano was actually going to continue the fight with the pyro archon, but someone else stepped in with the mist. So I think the verdict on who's stronger is still out.
I bekieve while mavuika went all out she had to keep the destructive force down and therefore concentrate her attacks so in a way she was holding back just not in terms of raw strength
Its over 9000!!
I personally think the Harbingers being just as strong as the archons is sort of a plot hole. It could mean that they don't even have to follow or respect the Tsaritsa. For all we know, the Tsaritsa was assassinated by them.
Genshin entering its DBZ arc with this one.
I've been waiting for thiiisss
The Tsaritsa wants the Gnoses so she can take on Celestia this is the final one she needs I guess we will find out eventually whether she is friend or foe but she will undoubtedly be powerful with all 7 gnoses
Before that tho, if the theory about MC gaining the pyro elemwmt through the gnosis is true,then my additional theory is that if the traveler can get hold (even for a moment) of the 7 gnosis then maybe he will gain the 7 elemwnts in their full form (archon level powers) and maybe it eill also pave the way to him having his originalowets restored.
@@ShanMichaelEscasio this is true it will be interesting to see that
I really think Celestia will be the villain of this game. It has been hinting this with every passing version.
great breakdown
You should watch the one who posted by other content creators. The introduction of Capitano with Name and his description display on the screen was so sick
as far as strength lorewise goes, these two are not the top rankers...they are respectably high, but not up top...despite capitano being ranked 1 as harbingers.
There are sovereigns like Apep(once she heals fully) and Neuvilette, other archons who still possess their former might(like Ei and Morax), the archons who just have pure hax abilities like Nahida(i mean yes she cannot contend one on one with them but her abilities are lowkey crazy..she is someone that you want to take out first before she even has a chance to do anything or its too late), then there is Lumine/abyss sibling, Dainsleif, the Hexenzirkel witches some of which have freakishly strong abilities, the likes of 5 sinners. And that is everyone we have seen so far. There is Pierro whose strength is unknown. Perhaps Venti is hiding his strength. Albedo has the potential to be a catastrophe. Tsaritsa probably aint a combatant, but as an archon it is not wise to undermine her. Azhdaha who still lives..and this doesnt even takes into account the celestial gods like the Primordial one, sustainer of heavenly principles, Istaroth. Other sovereign dragons and the dragon king who are immortal, and like neuvilette would be reborn if dead anyway.
So yea..while the harbingers are a strong force..with top 3 even being godlike, there are levels to "Gods", and there is no saying that the top three harbingers can contend with the upper echleon of the gods. Infact Mavuika is NOT a strong "archon". I mean, she is a combatant so she does gets to display her explosive power more than what Venti or Nahida did, but when it comes down to it, in the end she is not a GODLIKE archon.
Kinda surprised you didn't catch the callback to Himeko from Honkai Impact at 2:12
You should react to Feixiao's Trailer, "Nothing to Laugh At". It's incredible and I think you'll find a lot of cool details!
Ei and the raiden shogun would one shot both of these. I wanna point out that the fight was a tie and he was taken by a traitor from one of her clans without his consent.
I wanna see y’all Recreate Outlaw Brothers Kung fu movie into a Male Extended short film & We Definitely want More Fighting short films please wit Kung Fu Drunken Fist wit a Male lead & Two Twin Brothers Fist to Fist Combat
I think the fight is a bit too fast and flashy, when I watched it first time, my eye is a bit uncomfortable and hard to digest what is happening.
For power scale in lore, I think Neuvillette >= Zhong Li > Raiden Ei > Mavuika > Capitano > other Fatui Harbingers
There are still way stronger forces in genshin lore that surpass archons and fatui
Great breakdown but I think your video bitrate is very low. Or is it just me?
"These are the strongest people in genshin right?"
Venti slicing mountains with his wind 👀
Zhongli throwing mountains at Venti because of an argument 👀
Ei slicing islands in half 👀
All the other characters like the Hexenzirkel, the Sinners, and the Dragons 👀
Have reacted to the Arlecchino boss fight animation
There are a lot of people stronger than them. Primordial one, 4 shades, 5 sinners, all the Archon's who fought in the Archon War, Dragon Sovereigns. If the battle's scale is to be considered which was limited to the stadium (provided that Mavuika was saving the stadium too) then they're nowhere near defeating actual 1000 year old gods
@@Nagatomo158 I fully agree. Although they are strong, they don't come close to feats that actual Archons, aka the gods of Teyvat, have accomplished in the past. Such as Ei slicing an island in half, fighting for 500 years straight with no rest with power equivalent to vaporizing the oceans, and creating a huge island sized storm with her will alone. Or Zhongli, who threw down mountain sized spears and created an island in the process. There are just a few examples of what actual gods in Teyvat can do.
Geo archon Zhongli is the strongest archon on lore documents
A little disappointed that the 1st of the Fatui Harbingers ran away like a stereotypical villain.
3:32 what crazy is that she wasn’t at full power in the fight.
siuuuuu
il frauditano
Bro i also reacted to it haha it was really good
This fight is basically between the Strongest Human Alive No.1 of the Fatui Harbingers vs the actual God of War and this fight happened while the Archon was on a weaker state because shenanigans happened and it seems that they are on equal standings and still clap his ass says a lot about the power scaling, how a human was almost on par with a god of this world.
@@vincentaguilar7011 Mavuika isn't a god though. This fight is more strongest human vs human with Archon title. She's isn't really a real Archon. She just holds the title of one. She's not a god like the other 6.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 The only requirement to being an archon is having the gnosis and the divine seat. Focalors and Venti weren't born as gods but still rose to have god-like powers
@BlascoClips But unlike Mavuika, they both ascended to god-hood. Mavuika is still only human. She's basically just a human with above average power with the title of an Archon. So, she's not really an Archon but serves her nation as one.
There's some weird things going on here. His loss (in theory it's a tie, but the Capitan left the fight wounded, so not really) makes no sense plot wise. Pyro Archon gives off many red flags for being a potential secret villain in the story.
Personally i do not like this scene from a narrative side, it feels lackluster for the character of capitano, just shows up, fights, retreats, feels like he was there only to hype up Mavuika before she gives up her power.
We still aren't aware of his true goal and the plan of the fatui.
He didn't retreat willingly, he was ready to fight to the end, but the other natlan character rescued him for a yet unknown reason because he was injured/about to likely lose.
And him not going after her while she's weakened is peak gigachad behavior. I feel like this fight really showcased the power and personality of both of these characters and feels like it's going to become a major plot point in the future archon quests. If we really never saw the near full power of the archon from the nation of war then what would've even been the point, y'know.
I think that is not the narrative here. Captino accuses her of failing to fulfill her oath from 500 years ago. It sounded personal. I do believe she felt it was personal as well, do to her response. "I don't know what you mean. But it sounds like this is about more than the Tsaritsa" I do believe it has something to do with his real identity.
He did not retreat willingly, it is also stated by Capitanos ally that Mavuika could have dispersed the smoke effortlessly but chose not to, therefore she didnt want to continue the fight.
basically they aren't even close to the strongests in the verse
the current strongest character lore wise is Neuvillette, he's a dragon and just so you have an idea, think of it like archons get their powers from dragons, so a dragon is way more powerful than an archon can be. Afterwards, it's a debate between morax and tsaritsa for the most part.
You forgetting about Celestia and PO? They are the top of the food chain in GI lore.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 not confirmed.
@@FynO1 Not confirmed? Wdym? 🤣 They are literally the creators of Teyvat and the Archons. They straight-up beat the Dragon Sovereigns. Are you not caught up in the lore? Sounds like you need to do some more research my guy.
