when he start talking at the start of the video i was "oh no", i like his guide because are direct to the point but also because there is no voice... and i dont want to ofend him but i didnt like his voice i couldnt understand a thing of what he was saying.
The perfect combination of creativity and deliberate, non-button mashing play. It's beautiful, I super nut evrytim. Also goated take on running her with Miyabi, it feels like a complete waste of potential, but it is nice that Yanagi is good at supporting the chief and doing independent operations (and kind of makes canon sense too)
Thank you for posting these videos. Quick and reliable information is so hard to come by, and the captioned formatting makes me feel safe pausing to analyze stuff. Easy sub and i hope the quality stays this consistent
that's a really easy to understand and follow guide. keep up the great work man! my Yanagi has been severely under appreciated. time to put in some work
Awesome video, taught me something new about the Yanagi stance mechanics, i was not aware that swift ruten wasn't a heavy attack. I also got so used to just doing the attack strings before stance change that it didnt occur to me to chain swift ruten the way you did. You make her look so comfortable to play in hyperaggression and thats super sick!
With Yanagi being my favorite character, it's nice to finally have a proper guide for applications of her more intricate tech - and to learn she can be played solo so effectively, besides. Your content is very helpful, and I appreciate how simple and concise it is. Thank you.
0:50 About that statement, I did felt the same way for Miyabi since both fight for field times. Miyabi mostly comes in for that big charge atk, then you swap back to Yanagi to battery her stacks and you rinse and repeat. So I opt for Mono-ice Miyabi which allows her to be played as a hypercarry and I like it that way ^^ Yanagi and Miyabi are both really good together for sure, especially with Astra enhancing the duos even more, but running them both together feels like a waste. I prefer running them on their own team which means you have two really strong team!
As you say, Yanagi in a Miyabi team really just feels like she's a Disorder battery. As someone with a M2+ Yanagi, it almost feels like using the extra dashes on her becomes a waste since the extra energy you use means fewer disorders for Miyabi. Playing her as a hypercarry has been super fun and I've found she works really well even in non-mono electro teams (like using Nicole/Caesar or Nicole/Seth). Easily one of my favorite characters in this game.
Been using this same team setup for a good bit now. Will add that her m2 adds a ton more depth to her since you can use the extended slash to power up the disorder damage even farther.
That's what I thought too. My favourite character is miyabi but using yanagi who is a great dps like a battery is wrong for me as an f2p. I want to use her in a different team.
Yanagi is by far my favourite character to keep on field for significant amounts of time. Even when I play her with Miyabi I treat Miyabi as her quickswap partner, not the other way around
This is why I always use Yanagi with Burnice in anomaly team. She's just satisfying to play on field. Miyabi on the other team simply rekts the enemies anyway.
before miyabi dropped i used this team and now since i got miyabi like everyone else i put both her and yanagi together but i cant help but miss the old team. i also plan to get m2 or higher for yanagi eventually and that also requires more field time and more energy so its sort of anti synergistic with miyabi, might just go back to this mono team :3
I love my glasses queen so much! Shes really fun to play and is my 2nd Agent to fully max out her skills with Cage Passes (first being Billy) Didnt pull for Miyabi myself so shes on Anomaly duty with Piper and im happy with yhe result doing my main team with Yanagi, Billy, Piper
This was a guarantee skip to me until I try her out, loved her gameplay style so much that I ended up getting her and honestly, she's one of the funniest characters to play with IMO
Love the Xenoblade music! And yeah, even tho Miyabi is my favorite character, I have been using her with Yanagi and sorta being like "that's it... she just uses an EX special every once in a while?" And it feels like wasted potential from a character I invested a lot in. So I just gave them each their own hyper teams. Tho I use Qingyi and Rina instead because I love Qingyi
One of my favorite teams is Yanagi, Seth, and Nicole. I bank up Yanagi's energy, then hit the enemy with an ether bubble and dump Yanagi's ex into them. And, the only other character I like playing as much as her currently is Ellen for the same reason of skill expression without it being overly complicated.
Thank you so much! I knew from the start she's meant to be hypercarry. But a lot of people discounted her and put her with Miyabi, and I believed them. Still I feel she's such a waste as a battery for Miyabi. I really love her aesthetic and kit. I did build Seth and Rina as well, now because of you I have reason to use this team again. Another reason to skip SS Anby.
Caesar would be better if you got her, not just in terms of buffs, but also it means Yanagi can fill the anomaly gauge herself more, which results in more disorder damage.
my team with her from day one was yanagi/caeser/rina and the only time it ever faltered was if i ran across pompey in some form; very fun, though i don't just use her as a melee charge battery for miyabi, i wager yanagi gets more field time to build shock to clear frostfire and then both hit colossal damage numbers back to back before starting over
miyabi does still deal like a solid 30% more dmg than other chars in solo comparison so miyaleech is crazy bro it is true that people tunnel on miyabi way too hard tho
I actually used to play 4 pc chaos jazz 2 piece freedom i might try refarming a bit because that is how i play yanagi i play hypercarry and didn't like how people just use her with miyabi which isn't bad but i love yanagi enough to want her to carry and be the one cookin
My main team is Yanagi/Rina/Astra, all at M6. It's disgusting. Yanagi does 2 to 3 million "mini" disorders by herself and enemies can't hit you while switching constantly between Yanagi melee and Rina ranged.
Didnt know Yanagi did all this. Back in her banner I disregarded her quick cause I didnt like her looks. But Im a sucker for fun gameplay, so I might get her on her rerun, hopefully she didnt get powercrept by then tho. Damn but she is anomaly and I havent invested into that role lol
talking about seth, do you think you can make a guide for him? either a dps seth or just a defensive assist bot or w/e, or if running AP build on him is as viable as the commonly used crit or stun build. thanks anyway!
Why do you insist on timing swift ryuten to parry when her dodge counter is actually really good, and generally going to be higher electro anomaly app and damage than just continuing her normal chain? I mean yes its optimal to just swift ryuten parry if you're already in the animation, but in almost every other situation, dodge counter is still better.
The parry is another form of protection while also maintaining her self-buff and want to save up her energy. It's not about one over the other. Ideally, you mix both. Also, sometimes you can use up both dodges, so you can follow up with a dodge counter into a parry to extend the window of protection.
@@T2Juno I find it extremely rare that I used up both dodges, defensive assists, or any other forms of s, and have to resort to this. The game gives you so many s that I feel that the counter is more of a cherry on top than a mechanic you purposefully play towards. Sometimes you dodge things because you're in the midair frames of N5 and just d everything.
@@TheJuicyTangerineThat's fair. It's not a super common scenario, but it's nice to have it when it does occur. Just recalling it from my no hit run on the butcher during battle tower. That being said though, I do find myself using it as often as dodging, but that's just me. I think it's because I tend to hold onto energy for a big dps dump, so both dodge countering and parrying keeps me in the 3,4,5 combo. There's enough variation in the fights where the parry is handy, but maybe that only matters during long fights where resources are being pushed to there limit and fighting a super agressive boss? Either way, it's handy to have in her kit.
I love the Yanagi-Seth combination. I try to put Seth in all my anomaly teams, but some are just not BiS. A question though, why are you picking freedom blues on Rina? Seth's passive does the same, lasts 20s, and FB doesn't let you stack both. I think there's a better choice for Rina in Chaos Jazz, to go anomaly rina; or even Proto Punk to take advantage of her evasive assists.
I wasn't hyped for her (she turned out to be amazing in the story). It was her gameplay immediately sold me. She feels like the best on field agent, except that Miyabi got the best parts of her kit without having to switch, just build stacks passively and time your autos. I prefer Yanagi's gameplay though, it feels very satisfying to do well.
As a Yanagi main, I couldn't agree more with the statement made at the beginning. Yanagi makes Miyabi so, so boring to play for me, that I actually got rid of all the chaos jazz disks and replaced them with thunder metal and gave her an atk% disk on her slot 6 instead of A. Mastery so she can hit 3300 base atk for thunder metal to boost the shit out of that stat. Why? So I can use Miyabi's passive to boost anomaly build Up and start raining down on my foes with my 5000 atk 400 AP Yanagi. All I'm currently lacking is her signature Wengine(I'm using fusion compiler cuz I had It around at refinement 2). I'm picking It Up on the rerun alongside two mindscapes. It feels fair for one of my favorite characters to have that treatment despite knowing everything coming in future patches might be rad. I've been having a lot more fun with the game using miyabi as a support tbh.
Nah She's better with Burnice for me Mostly 400-500k disorder damage so fast while 800k disorder damage with a lot of stage buffs etc. aside from Yanagi's 30k+ polarity damage
Before Miyabi got released at 1.4,I was “force” to build a team with dps yanagi At first I thought it was not ez to play with(my team was yanagi,qingyi and rina,somehow both yanagi and qingyi is M1C0 and I didn’t even have 1 copy of Seth,thanks zzz.),then when I finally build up the team and put it in shiyu defence,I realised how op it is It may not be as good as Miyabi,but fighting at electric weakness enemies is definitely way faster than the regular Miyabi team However if you are trying to beat pumpey… yeah good luck cus I never beat it in tower mode until my Miyabi showed up(my Zhu yuan team deals less dmg then yanagi team,idk why but it’s probably bc of the short stun timing,my disk are good I checked)
Even with her sig, it outperforms elec dmg d5 with Rina (remember Kagen stance also grants +10% pen ratio). Also in general, pen ratio gets stronger the more of it you stack

omg i want to be a bestie i want to join wowee
People talk about the parry sounds on zzz being so good, i never truly understood until I heard the Swift Ruten parry sfx. I get it now.
Yanagi got so much love in her kit, i really hope we see more characters like her in the future. Still my absolute fav.
Love the VO, personally would love it for the whole video just because i dont like reading, but maybe thats just me 😂
It’s just easier for me to structure videos with captions 🥲
VO + subtitles is the best of both worlds tbh
Agree, both would be great

hypernagi is really good on middle lane deadly assault too, she can easily impair him generating more points.

love seeing Yanagi get the recognition she deserves….you described it perfectly, once you get the hang, it feels like dancing with the enemy.
This vid makes we want to pull trigger to put on a yanagi hyper carry team
Ooh, love the editing you do. The three person entrance for the showcase is hype everytime

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS, SHE IS MY FAVE SINCE I STARTED PLAYING WHEN HER BANNER STARTS AND I GOT HER M1W2, I WANT TO GET MORE MINDSCAPE ON HER RERUN
I've been running a Yanagi-Seth-Rina team for electric buffed battles since she came out.
Been using this same team setup for a good bit now. Will add that her m2 adds a ton more depth to her since you can use the extended slash to power up the disorder damage even farther.

i also plan to get m2 or higher for yanagi eventually and that also requires more field time and more energy so its sort of anti synergistic with miyabi, might just go back to this mono team :3
though now I have astra, I wonder who would be better to replace, if any of them at all
i started the game when jane came out, came back for yanagi and she just carried me through the game
The release of Astra allows me to play the true hypercarry Yanagi along with Rina. It feels good to clear the new DA with this team.
Niice vid. Yanigi san sure does look fun to play and has a very interesting kit.
I love my glasses queen so much!
Shes really fun to play and is my 2nd Agent to fully max out her skills with Cage Passes (first being Billy)
Didnt pull for Miyabi myself so shes on Anomaly duty with Piper and im happy with yhe result doing my main team with
Yanagi, Billy, Piper
Great video!
Ceaser guide please!
This was a guarantee skip to me until I try her out, loved her gameplay style so much that I ended up getting her and honestly, she's one of the funniest characters to play with IMO
those parries are ruining my pulling plans man 😭
it's not like she'll rerun any time soon 😂
While miyabi is more tan enough with mono ice team, yanagi with astra yao is chef kiss
Love the Xenoblade music! And yeah, even tho Miyabi is my favorite character, I have been using her with Yanagi and sorta being like "that's it... she just uses an EX special every once in a while?"

the best yanagi video in youtube, good job man
This honestly makes me want to pull for Yanagi, also just an excuse to use my two favorite Electric supports (Seth and Rina).
Caesar would be better if you got her, not just in terms of buffs, but also it means Yanagi can fill the anomaly gauge herself more, which results in more disorder damage.
I'm using yanagi anby rina on shiyu defense, and other half is miyabi lycaon soukaku
torna music 10/10
Yanagi,seth,rina always help me to get 3 stars of any deadly assault, i also use ATK on slot 6 disk, mine was 3700 atk and AP 392
Top 1 yanagi video. Everything was hittin just right 🤤🤤😩
swift ruten can trigger stun! as well as all EX and non EX special attacks
my team with her from day one was yanagi/caeser/rina and the only time it ever faltered was if i ran across pompey in some form; very fun, though i don't just use her as a melee charge battery for miyabi, i wager yanagi gets more field time to build shock to clear frostfire and then both hit colossal damage numbers back to back before starting over
Hope we can revisit older videos with a full voice-over wben you feel comfortable to. It would make them a lot easier to digest
Maybe once I improve my video making process
Yanagi content, i love it.
sigh i was set on building zhu yuan and now you make me wanna farm thunder metal now 😭
yanagi + trigger gonna be insane
It's always a good day to see a fellow Nagi enjoyer, and you're really convincing me to free my Nagi from Miyaleech and let her shine on her own
miyabi does still deal like a solid 30% more dmg than other chars in solo comparison so miyaleech is crazy bro
it is true that people tunnel on miyabi way too hard tho
I actually used to play 4 pc chaos jazz 2 piece freedom i might try refarming a bit because that is how i play yanagi i play hypercarry and didn't like how people just use her with miyabi which isn't bad but i love yanagi enough to want her to carry and be the one cookin
You are my favorite ZZZ try hard
Yeah the biggest win with Astra release is that I can play Miyabi with her and Nicole and free Yanagi for a second team
just lacking rina i hope i get ger soon 😭
OMG HE TALKED HES SO SEXY😩😩😩
Bro???
brooooo i agree🥵
yeah

Damn but she is anomaly and I havent invested into that role lol
so is the parry between her normal attacks just stance switches? that's so sick
very cool and informative video 🔥
Lmk if Koleda & Eve are meta when time comes!
Nice!
talking about seth, do you think you can make a guide for him? either a dps seth or just a defensive assist bot or w/e, or if running AP build on him is as viable as the commonly used crit or stun build. thanks anyway!
and here i am still trying to complete deadly assault lmao, these new rotation got me f'ed up i need to git gud fast

@@kaidite really, Seth should be on astral now since he’s quick assist heavy. Freedom on Rina just to make sure shock is always up.
how do you hit the 500k disorder?
Is it possible to reach 20k points vs Pompey in current Deadly Assault with this team? Or maybe 20k vs the Dead End Butcher?
I have m2 grace wld she replace seth or rina? I have m6 seth and m0s1 rina

It may not be as good as Miyabi,but fighting at electric weakness enemies is definitely way faster than the regular Miyabi team
However if you are trying to beat pumpey… yeah good luck cus I never beat it in tower mode until my Miyabi showed up(my Zhu yuan team deals less dmg then yanagi team,idk why but it’s probably bc of the short stun timing,my disk are good I checked)
Why the PEN ratio disk 5 on Yanagi?
Stacks with Rina and Fusion Compiler
Even with her sig, it outperforms elec dmg d5 with Rina (remember Kagen stance also grants +10% pen ratio). Also in general, pen ratio gets stronger the more of it you stack
Stealing this team comp, thanks 😉
I dont have rina what do i do? Am i cooked?
Nicole should be fine, just a bit harder to keep up shock
Soukaku guide?
Never say never
@Crashicoot let's go
nagi-nee
Nah hypercarry yanagi is astra/nicole/yanagi.
Its absolutely disgusting the amount of disorders/ults/black holes it generates.
Tbh, i'll try this out
