I like niche characters. They make the game interesting. Unlike what seems to be most of the playerbase, I honestly couldn’t care less if the character in question is the best, or even all that good. If they offer a different style of gameplay, maybe a different way to build characters then why not use them. Genshin is not a difficult game, no reason to always use the best units. Just use who you wanna use, it’s the best way to play.
niche characters imo are fine like they can help with contested units but the need to feel smooth to play at C0. Characters like Gorou, Shenhe, Yunjin and Mika can do their Job well at c0, Mika is worst than the other three, but still. while Characters like Sara and Faruzan. Oh boy... we all know how they are at c0.
Niche isn't bad so long as the NICHE is fantastic at what it does. Faruzan is Niche, but incredibly powerful once you get her constellations. I'd say she's the failed experiment in Niche, Niche needs to be good at C0 and incredible at C6. Faruzan is absolutely garbage at C0 and only fantastic at C6. This is objective fact, don't believe me? TCers believe the same thing. Shenhe is a fantastic example of what Niche needs to be: Powerful at C0 at what she does and is supposed to fulfill. No other character at C0 can offer such powerful buffs for Cryo teams. She succeeds in every way for what she is supposed to do. Niche opens new pathways to play the game so it's fine. If they are a generalist, they should be overall powerful like Bennett, XQ, etc... but if they are niche, they need to be weaker overall but VERY strong at the one thing they are supposed to do.
Niche is bad if the characters are ugly like Sara and faruzan but it’s top tier if they’re pretty like goro and shenhe. Unless you’re Mika… he is the only exception because he’s the prettiest but he’s also the worst.

Truly shameful that the niche character we just got even at c6 doesn't even outperform bennett for eula teams, and is really clunky to play with.
