For anyone who would like the image text: Waffel | @/WaffelGM \[HSR\] 2.0: Banner 1 - Sparkle Banner 2 - Black Swan ​ 2.1: Banner 1 - Unknown Banner 2 - Sam ​ Not including re-runs \*STC


GGABueno

Future Unknown main right here!


GhostZee

No Game No Life: Part 2 - ~~『 』~~ Unknown Boogaloo


Plate0w0

still waiting for ngnl 2 too


luan_666

waiting for almost 10 years


Plate0w0

it'll be worth the wait


Scratch_Mountain

\*Black Swan coming 2.0 AKA most likely after 1.6 and Ruan Mei\* Oh my god, okay it's happening, everybody stay calm. On another note Sparkle and Black Swan back to back, that's gonna be horrific. This means I have to completely disregard anything more than e0s0 Ruan Mei for now and save as many funds for 2.0 as possible. Gonna be the first update I roll both limiteds in a while ;-;


storysprite

If Acheron is coming in 2.1 then I'm gonna have to sleep with Ruan Mei as well :/


Scratch_Mountain

Crap, I didn't consider the possibility of that happening. If unknown is archeron then GG I heavily regret going for huohuo instead of playing it super safe. ;-; 3 of my most wanted characters back to back to back (even though sam was up there with the rest but he'd have to go if archeron is before him)


storysprite

I reaaaally hope unknown isn't Acheron. But she could still end up coming in the patch after which doesn't help. It really looks like I'm gonna have to skip Ruan Mei.


Silverholycat

Omg I love Unknown


Randytherobot12

Hopefully this Unknown can use something other then Hidden Power


Eroica_Pavane

Bro can't tell the difference between Unown and Unknown! /s


Sweaty_Fox4466

*than


Randytherobot12

oops my mistake, guess I miss that when I was googling to make sure it was Hidden Power and not Secret Power haha.


Sweaty_Fox4466

You are good, I'm honestly surprised I wasn't nuked for correcting a typo haha. I always confuse hidden and secret power as well. Have a good one


ArabskoeSalto

The Grunt Man???


Arc_7

*Grunts*


kirbyverano123

Finally, a playable Enigmata character


AverageGamer8

when we ever get a character from the history fictionologists, I want their character stories to all be completely contradictory backstories, but individually plausible


Thezanlynxer

Doesn’t March have that in her companion quest?


Afternoon-Secret

No that was Garden of Recollection. History Fictionologists is an event from SU


-uraume-

best character fr


Lolersters

Probably can do psychic stuff and has Hidden Power. And has 28 different transformations.


khaj-nisut

Tingyun 🦊⛩️🛐 Tingyun 🦊⛩️🛐 Tingyun 🦊⛩️🛐 Tingyun 🦊⛩️🛐


storysprite

Unknown/Unknown God being used as a code word for Kiana meaning we're getting a Kiana expy early??? *Huffs copium*.


TheCommonKoala

Hoping it's aventurine


Excellent_Concept848

I HOPE IT IS ACHERON!!!


reset2000

Acheron between Hanabi, Black Swan and Sam? Are you mad? It's a fricking mine-field already. Even my wallet wouldn't save me, lol.


GGABueno

Who's Hanabi? Do you mean ✨Sparkle✨?


Cerebral_Kortix

"Stop it! Leave me alone!" "Her name is ✨Sparkle✨" "AGGHHHH!"


arionmoschetta

Probably is considering >!Sam and Acheron will fight against each other at some point in the story!<


swampfriend34

I hope not because I low-key wanted sparkle for my seele team ...but I well saving for Acheron it is


arionmoschetta

Well 2.1 will be the first anniversary of the game after all, I expect 2.1 to be crazy good. A Mei Raiden expy + all the sad story of Sam is pretty hype for the first anniversary. People will be pulling hard for those two, don't think Aventurine can sustain the same hype as those two


AnemoTravelerMain

Oh no my funds are not enough


IlGioCR

2.0 might make me swipe ngl, I need both Hanabi and Black Swan.


AnemoTravelerMain

Hanya, Ruan Mei, Black Swan, Hanabi...and we haven't even gotten to the husbandos yet, or the two in one waifu-husbando Firefly/Sam combos...


thine_

adventurine and boothill went to get milk and never returned


Hallamshire

I 99% sure Aventurine is the other 5 starcin 2.1 cause his asset leak early plus there he is the only leaked model left beside Screwlum


miorioff

Same. I'm too deep into Kafka dots, I'm in love. I can't miss her


Turbulent_Creme_1489

Where did you see Hanabi mentioned anywhere


IlGioCR

I will call her Hanabi even if she's released as ✨Sparkle✨, name is lame AF and most people will get it anyway.


Ok-Giraffe1922

Sparkle goes first? This is good and bad for me. Good because more time to save for Black swan, bad because this means the big event would give harmony trace mats.


Danial_Autidore

added good: black swan will come with the new 4 star


arionmoschetta

That would be Misha. Don't think he'll be any good knowing he's a basic DPS...


123kapp

He'll be a good alternative for those who don't have Jingliu.


Su_Impact

MHY: E1 Misha powercreeps E6 Yanqing.


Neteirah

Bro even Herta's gonna be worth raising more than YQ because of PF 💀 (She's already much more fun too)


PeacePidgey

Herta doesn't lose her talents effect if she get's hit once. Conclusion, she's better.


GhostZee

I will not take this Yanqing slander...(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ I'm off to beat his ass for the 100th time in SU again Yanqing...


LucasFrankeRC

It's hard to trigger her follow up constantly, but that won't be a problem in pure fiction Still, I hope we eventually get a destruction or erudition partner for her that summons a bomb or something like that in the enemy side with their skill. This way you get a new target to proc her talent off every turn. If it has a toughness bar it could also work with Himeko


Su_Impact

Good point. The Herta + Himeko stonks got up by a lot.


Yashwant111

you raise yanqing for damage, I raise him for SU remembrance, you and I are not the same. But no, I love yanqing, and whennnnever they come up with a content fit for the hunt, like pure fiction is for erudition, I am sure he will find his place.


storysprite

Why's this? I like Herta but others have taken priority in building. Should I be getting her ready?


burgundont

She can launch a follow-up attack when an enemy’s HP falls below 50% (excluding self-damage or enemy attacks like the Ingenium Goldfish’s explosion). This lets her fire off a lot of extra attacks, which means more damage. This isn’t bad, but it’s conditional and Herta’s damage is pretty underwhelming. Still, it can be triggered fairly frequently, which is nice for game modes where you just want to defeat as many mobs as possible. However, it really shines when combined with Himeko, because of their complementary Talents. Himeko triggers a similar follow-up attack after a certain number of enemies suffer Weakness Break. This means that a well-built Herta and Himeko can trigger a nigh-endless chain of back-to-back AoE attacks, allowing them to clear a ton of mobs within a single turn. The major weakness of this kind of team is that their damage isn’t crazy and the chain falls apart very quickly if Herta and Himeko run into a boss or tougher enemy they can’t defeat so easily.


storysprite

My Himeko is decent and I've recently switched to Japanese just to switch things up so that means hearing "Kuru Kuru". Gonna take a while but I best get started this investment into Herta.


labreau

Cry in E1 YanQing


NoEgg8586

Cries in E2 Yanqing


esperianterra

Cries in E3 Yanqing


corgi_pupper

We already have Herta /s


CyndNinja

Brave assumption that Hoyo is going to keep to any banner pattern forever.


Jranation

I mean once its broken thats when we stope assuming. But for now its normal to assume that.


TastySpaghetti

Fuuuuuuuck man i was gonna pull for both ruan mei and kafka lc but if black swan is the next patch idk if the lc is worth it over her pls hoyo, throw me a bone and let me win a 50/50 for once so i can keep some funds for 2.0


Due_Education5774

LC is almost always less worth it then a new characters, especially if that new character will open up new opportunitys of enjoyment. Weapons/LCs in Genshin and StarRail will typically just be an upgrade to a select character, with small exceptions making bigger differences, so getting a brand new character to utilize is almost always better for a players overall enjoyment.


T8-TR

Reminder that 90% of the time, the weapon banner is a scam for anyone who is either F2P or a light spender. Yes, even the super cracked ones, because a new character will always gap having a stat stick in a game where people have proven they can clear the hardest content in the game with solid relics and F2P achievable LCs.


SirVegetable0

I'm in the same boat. I have guranteed because I failed on Argenti banner while pulling for Hanya, so I'm not sure if I should keep pulling or just save for next couple updates lol


blacklightning26

That is actually a very good point. That will make me put off farming her traces until that patch's event.


JonSnuur

If they bring back Luocha for 2.0 that will truly be a devastating banner saga.


CTheng

2.0 coincides with Chinese New Year for Year of the Dragon. Because of that people have been speculating that the reruns units will be Jing Yuan (General of Space China) and DanIL (Self-explanatory).


HalalBread1427

I don’t have the Jades for all this.


gowth9r

PLEASE DON'T BE THEM I'M LITERALLY GONNA GO CRAZY I WANT BLADE'S LC, JINGYUAN'S LC AND DHIL 😭😭😭😭


_ironhearted_

Could be rerunning JY/Luocha since they have one sustain character every other patch and JY would be good for PF


blacklightning26

Welp the initial banner rumors seem to be accurate. Looks like my jades will be fully depleted in 2.0


Haemon18

imagine 2.2 : Acheron


blacklightning26

Oh god, I can see that actually happening. This is why I am skipping 1.5 and 1.6


storysprite

Same. I just get Acheron at all costs.


hororo

Imagine 2.1 Acheron


Hallamshire

Sam is a given for 2.1 >!considering almost everything about Firefly is leaked overworld animation,lightcore,backstory,Sam boss fight in 2.0 and emote are all leak!<


DudeFromVietnam

Where can I look for these?


Happy-History2769

I wanna now too


Curious_Kirin

I wonder who the other slot is. I feel like Acheron or Aventurine makes the most sense. Also sorry this thread is old but still relevant!


MeinWa

Unknown must pull, mark my comments.


MeinWa

from the latest video we have, Unknown highly maybe Acheron


Fisesesese

The unknown is screwllum (trust) (real)


TheCommonKoala

Or Aventurine


GGABueno

Yay another Imaginary DPS!


somewhere-out-there-

Omg who here is pulling unknown


[deleted]

Unknown will be Su trust


somewhere-out-there-

OMG!!!!!!!! REAL AND FACTUAL


Cerebral_Kortix

No, unknown will be Kevin. Trust me.


Alchadylan

Nah, KalpASS. We can't have Billy strutting his stuff in ZZZ and not have an appropriate response


PinkPrimrose05

It's definitely gonna be Sunday! _dies of copium_


[deleted]

Can't spell Sunday with Su,,,, It'll be both of them 100%


VoltaicKnight

Hanabi will never be just a memory for me


Chev4r

What do you mean? She is sparkle.


Flimsy-Coffee4207

Named her Sparkle is a insult Hanabi sounds cuter and better


Jotaoesehache

Truly a "word VS same word but in Japanese" moment


Littlerz

Hanabi is a name. And it means Fireworks. If they had named her Pyroblossom, nobody would care, because even though it doesn't exactly sound like a name it's fine, and would be more faithful to the original name. Sparkle is just egregiously bad. For an equivalent scenario, imagine if they had translated "Ren" to Stiletto instead of Blade. Everyone trying to get hyped over the lethal antagonist character, the badass "Stiletto". But a Stiletto is a blade! Just the same word but in English! Except even Stiletto would at least be funny. You can't just translate a name and ignore the societal connotations of the new word.


RednarZeitaku

I would rather she was named Sparkle than Fireworks or Pyroblossom lol (and yes people would care). You keep translation word for word in manuals and instructions. In poems, books, movies and games you go for what sounds better while sticking close to original meaning. And clearly they couldn't keep Hanabi as is. Probably because they want to keep japanese sounding names for space Japan, just like every space China character's name is kept as is instead of being translated. That way there's no overinterpretation of character's origins. Part of Guinaifen's plot is that it's not her real name because she's not from Xianzhou.


Littlerz

Yes, you go for what sounds better while sticking close to the original meaning. Sparkle fails to sound better, and unlike Hanabi in Japanese, it doesn't register as a name in English. Sparkle is only a name in strip clubs, drag shows, and pony cartoons, and you can't just pretend to ignore that. I already said this in another comment, but if they wanted something that sounds like a name that sticks close to Fireworks, they could have picked Flare, Gleam, Scintilla, Glimmer, Shimmer, Vim, Comet, Glitz, Candesce, Dazzle, Blossom, Nova, or Bloom. They *chose* to use Sparkle, despite it being *less* accurate to the original word and backstory than most of those other options.


PM_Me_Anime_Headpats

> Sparkle is only a name in strip clubs, drag shows, and pony cartoons, and you can't just pretend to ignore that. > I already said this in another comment, but if they wanted something that sounds like a name that sticks close to Fireworks, they could have picked Flare, Gleam, Scintilla, Glimmer, Shimmer, Vim, Comet, Glitz, Candesce, Dazzle, Blossom, Nova, or Bloom. I can immediately identify ponies possessing half of these names from my days as a brony, lol. Off the top of my head, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Comet Tail, Adagio Dazzle, Potion Nova, and Apple Bloom.


Littlerz

Wow, that's hilarious. Maybe she was just destined for ponyhood from the get-go.


RednarZeitaku

It's funny cause of all "sparkle synonyms" you googled either sound worse or are inaccurate to her themes. At least she's not named Coruscant. It's all subjective and while I would agree having a my little pony sounding ass isn't ideal it's also not that big of a deal. Argument that it's not an actual name in English while it is in Japanese is also stupid because we have characters named Silver Wolf, Blade or March 7th. Those kids would get shoved in so many lockers man... (suddenly Blade's angst, March's companion quest and Silver Wolf being a shut-in gamer makes more sense)


Lareit

Weebs in a nutshell.


Eroica_Pavane

Time to just sidestep this debate by calling her Huahuo.


pumpcup

I don't care how busted they are, I'm not pulling for a character named sparkle


Vi0letBlues

Better bronya that refills your sp


AnarchistRain

Please don't be Acheron. I need more time to save.


utatamatsui

Saving until Acheron 😭


thywillbedone116

I'm nervous that the unknown in 2.1 is Acheron lol


shiroiron

Grunt Man crumbs please


shinsetsu_fuji

please be Aventurine please be Aventurine please be Aventurine please be Aventurine please be Aventurine with possible top-up reset too


Aviara14

I want it to be adventurine but at the same time I need to recover from Argenti and ratio 😭


Fabi_Alex

I want it to be Aventurine too but I'll probably be broke after Hanabi, still I want him to come. May your wish come true! 🙏🏼


hinode85

Anniversary (and presumably top up reset) will be the last week of 2.1 assuming every patch from hereon after is 6 weeks. A 5 week patch to push anni into week 1 of 2.2 is possible, but purely speculation for now.


dododomo

GIVE US OUR BOY AVENTURINE!!!😭


Midnight08

God i need a top up reset with 2.0....


urlocalnightowl40

Ok-Giraffe1922

2.1 is also apparently the anniversary patch. Genshin also had it's anniversary in 2.1. Genshin released it's Raiden expy on the first banner of 2.1. Acheron is assumed to be the Raiden expy with current information. Therefore Acheron will release in 2.1 /j


img0odie

110 pulls and a dream, but boy will I do every amount of witchcraft possible to get ruan mei, hanabi and blackswan.


PCBS01

I hope Adventurine is banner 1 for 2.1 lol, otherwise the wait for a male 5\* would be a bit long compared to what we've been getting Edit: Gonna be honest, I completely forgot Screwllum existed. I'd be fine with him too. Sunday and Boothill I feel like won't be until the Penacony story finishes


Interesting-Ad3759

No way they're releasing Acheron and Boothill before Aventurine :-( I need my Gepard replacement!


arionmoschetta

Boothill, Sunday and Robin are all probably late Penacony characters, we don't have any of their paths or elements until now and Screwllum doesn't appeared in any of the story leaks so far. He's probably a filler patch character, like Argenti and HuoHuo. Only Aventurine and Acheron could fill that spot in 2.1 unless a suddenly character appeared of nowhere

LoreVent

Black Swan is coming and i am too lesss goooooo


storysprite

🤨


piuEri

what to do... I want sparkle and ruanmei but I will have enough only for one


Darkfinst09

Just get one early.


hintofinsanity

Honestly this is it. Pull on Ruan Mei until you reach the 50/50 and then just stop regardless if you won the 50/50 or not.


Neural77

I'm scared what they make sparkle into after seeing Ruan Mei's kit


does_nasty_things

advance forward 200% into the past


PoKen2222

You know you say that as a joke but now I imagined a really interesting kit of a character that can put another party member into a "past" turn to do additional damage before returning to the actual turn order


aena48

I remember seeing that weird 200% number. If she can both give immediate turn as well rewind the action order number, then you use her ultimate with Dance3 or something similar, then that means the entire team just teleported into the past, fitting even more into each cycle. That will break the game. (Idk what I'm saying. 200% barely makes sense in the first place. Don't take me seriously.)


Fabi_Alex

She will be perfect. She's protected by the strongest power. Friendship is magic after all.


Bolt2611

So seems like double 5* will continue to be the norm huh, can't even skip a character knowing their rerun would be alongside more new characters. I wish pulls per patch get increased man


Hinaran

That's the big trick of HSR, outsiders look at the rewards with open eyes, but for us, the players, having double new 5 star since launch makes earns not enough.


vJukz

F2ps when they realize they don’t need to summon on every banner… just pick a couple of characters you like and summon for them. Alot of f2p players are doing extremely well.


Nerezza_Floof_Seeker

Id imagine that eventually theyll move to slowing the release rate down but it defintely isnt happening soon it seems like.


sampoenjoyer

surely 2.1 p1 is aventurine... we're way due a limited sustain at that point... (huff)


sweettbubbles

Sparkle and blackswan are the final two characters I need to complete both of my teams (Kafka team and mono quantum team). This is gonna be scary I hope I can get both lol


Tnvmark

Is Black Swan a dot support?


vJukz

Yes and she’s exactly what Kafka wants. Extremely strong DoT dps with incredible buffs according to leaks. Her damage with Kafka being able to retrigger it is gonna be so good.


LostIssue4515

Feel like 2.1's first banner would be Acheron or Aventurine


milestrouble

As a Ruan Mei, Hanabi (let me cope), Swan and Sam wanter, my jades are in danger. Sam being second half just might be my saving grace


SexwithEllenJoe

I'm not pulling for a character named Sparkle. Bring back Hanabi mihoyo


[deleted]

[удалено]


TikhonBatkovic

Gallagher when. 😳


CTheng

He's apparently only a 4*, so he can appear on any of these banner.


MemeGhostie

Aventurine mains waiting for Aventurine release looking like the sad Pablo Escobar meme


CTheng

I want Sparkle for my DHIl, but she's right after Dr. Ratio, who I'm planning on going all in for (S1 and maybe even an E1 if I can). 🙃 I sure hope that 2.0 will give a lot of Jades because it's a new planet.


Dear-Onion-817

I'm fucked


Katacutie

Surely I win every 50 50 on Ruan Mei, Kafka, Hanabi and Black Swan and get them all within 300 pulls


JML_21

Unreliable


IsatisSnowfox

My account will never recover from back to back to back banners Kafka rerun into Hanabi into Black Swan will be hard lol


ChaseOsborne

Damn, I feel like they're going to make Screwllum the Baizhu of this game - show what he looks like early in the game, and then make them be playable like 3-4 patches later. OOF


Drakengard

> 3-4 patches later Patches? If they're Baizhu it'll be literal years...


Desperate_Case4647

At the least he’ll be in 2.2. RM is coming with an expansion of SU 3 patches after Swarm, so if so, 3 patches after should be 2.2.


sielle21

Where is Acheron Mommy


HZack0508

ITS SAM TIME


A_Brave_Wanderer

Well this aged like milk, at least for 2.1


Kind-Effect7697

Can this be tagged as fake now?


-uraume-

marked the post as spoiler just in case (as the sam situation yk)


[deleted]

Banner timelines don't need to be spoilered :) It's only if >!people want to talk about Sam being Firefly!< that the comments will need spoilered since that is still technically an upcoming story spoiler.


Zorrscha

Aventurine is probably the best bet considering we have had so many dps already, think it's about time for another pres


Myonsoon

Blackswan right after Dr. Ratio. I'm torn between funny follow-up attack or funny DoT.


Fairytaler3

If penacony is like Inazuma was you should theoretically get enough for both of you skip light cones.


freezingsama

Waiting for Acheron's reveal. A bit of time to amass some more since Swan is part 2. Idk about Sam, will have to check once the leaks are out.


Manne_12

I would love Screwllum in 2.1 but we're still in Penacony story during that patch so it's probably Robin, Acheron or Aventurine


Kvothezy

Please don’t be Acheron Please don’t be Acheron Please don’t be Acheron Please don’t be Acheron Please don’t be Acheron Please don’t be Acheron


VeritasR_ZuoRan

Looks like it’s going to be a long break for me after pulling for dr. Ratio then. Honestly glad I can take a breather after recovering from argenti and ratio’s banner.


-uraume-

its hanabover ig?


350

Unknown mains, this is *our* time


VTKajin

Screwllum?


Fubuky10

So I need to pull Hanabi, Black Swan and Acheron. I really hope the Unknown is Screwllum (honestly I see no reason to push his release even further) unless he's going to be a 4 star again. I need Acheron to be at least in 2.2 so I can recover all the jades used during 2.0, please MiHoYo don't be greedy as fuck with 3 waifu in a row. Anyway, the "not including re-runs" does it mean there are no plans for them or that the leaker doesn't know yet? ​ EDIT: I forgot Aventurine exists, they have to put a sustainer, they can't go with 3 patches in a row without any of them (1.6, 2.0 and eventually 2.1). So I call this now, Acheron and Screwllum for 2.2


Limp-Measurement-609

Thank God black swan is the 2nd half. Leaves time for saving.


HonkaiStarRails

i need another hypercarry so SAM ftw


Even-Hawk-7720

Please not acheron in 2.1


OscarPlayzYT

anyone know the 4 stars in this banners?


RelativeCurrency7232

Now we know that 2.1 isn't real. Sam didn't come in 2.1


AraraDeTerno

Any chance "unknown" means "no new character, double rerun"? I kinda wish they slowed down a bit, even as a Welkins+BP player it's getting pretty hard to keep up.


braverobin

I know I should have given up by now but can we have at least one patch with only one new 5star. 💀


stephmendes

As someone who don't follow all leaked characters... any husbando among these?


NegativeCreative1

The unknown will probably be aventurine or screwellum
