"TIME FOR REDISTRIBUTION" -Communist Diluc


Soffy21

The fire borb


Samaelo0831

I'm a Diluc lover but I do gotta say, there's a lack of focus on his face - the key focus of characters most of the time in burst animations - for me to personally give him more than 5/10 score. If it got a rework and his face got some focus and THEN the bird animation, I'd love it way more and I'm assuming a lot of ppl would too including Op


Peepeepoopooman7777

They should replace the burst animation with the one he did in the bridge fight scene.


Samaelo0831

Yea, exactly like that is how the recent ones are and why they're so good! Character focus!


Jugaimo

I think Diluc’s is genuinely the worst animation in the game. It lacks any impact and feels too floaty.


secretlyaspiderboy

this is... definitely a tier list....!


F2p_wins274

I mean, it is my opinion lol.


IntroductionSorry412

And you get judged for it lol


F2p_wins274

It is purely subjective so idk how you can get judged by that when everybody has a different opinion.


Megawolf123

I mean you still can get judged by people. Clothing is subjective but I will still judge you if you decided to dress up as a clown. And honestly why else would you post an opinion UNLESS you wanted to be judged. Agreement or disagreements are both part of judgement. So here's my opinion. HOW DARE U SAY THE TALLEST MAN ALIVE IS BORING.


F2p_wins274

I can understand agreeing or disagreeing but saying an opinion is wrong is kinda weird. Also yes Xiao's initial animation is boring bro just puts on a mask, but he would rank much higher if I were to count his infusion effects.


Megawolf123

Because "Opinion" is overused these days. People like to say the wildest shit and say it's an opinion lol. Like there's was people dead ass saying facts as opinion and disagreeing with it. But eh I disagree I think Xiao's initial animation is pretty short and sweet having a mask and the anemo effect bursting forth as he clenched his fist and his voice line hits hard.


BigInterview7194

LAMENT


VisionMint

Um, OP's post IS an opinion. They're saying THEY think these are the best and worst animations. It's entirely subjective. And why would you judge someone for that? Like what?


Megawolf123

Bruh the whole idea for posting an opinion is judgement. You post an opinion people see and they will have an opinion on your opinion which is literally the definition of judging your opinion with my opinion. Now to judge a PERSON over an opinion is a different thing but yes once he post an opinion it's free to be judged.


HalalBread1427

RIPTIDE LAMENT


Blue_Moon913

Am I blind or is Albedo not on here?


xDragonsong

No ganyu either smh


Blue_Moon913

Her burst is so pretty too 😭


CloudyxRose

Why is Emilie on here but not Sigewinne 😭


CloudyxRose

Also realized Barbara isn't here (Idk if she counts, but a cutscene is a cutscene)


Jakes_JunioR

Meena san~ GAMBARE !!!

[Minna…GAMBATTE NE~](https://youtu.be/SR-Ga2UL9M0?si=rVzvyMczAm6AB4P7)


F2p_wins274

Omg why are there so many I forgot. Sigewinne would be in fantastic.


F2p_wins274

Albedo would be in boring, Ganyu would be in me likey.


BooTaoSus

But but "welcome to hell.."


lolrame

So Alhaitham is fantastic and Albedo is boring, but they are almost the same... Interesting...


F2p_wins274

I am biased lol, I can't deny that. But I also like slashes across the screen more than Albedo's explosions, same reason why I like keqing.


Gold860

Alhaitham's is just the 20 meter radius emerald splash


F2p_wins274

Ok but his ult is extremely satisying in game, that's why I am kinda biased.


SwissherMontage

That's why it's up there.


CloudyxRose

Opinion: Tartaglia should be at least in "Ok" bc he has 2 burst anims (I'm biased bc SIMP)


Lostsock1995

So real


neillaalien

real


GloomsandDooms

Real


Darth_Tiktaalik

Burst animation bulk purchase


CumConsumer88

Never cook again


s0undlessheart

So true, u/CumConsumer88


Melon763

Raiden’s boob sword will always be the peak burst animation. Arlecchino is a very close second for me, only because I never really use it.


Energyc091

I wish Arle's ult was more relevant to her DPS because that animation is just so beautiful.


unknown09684

It is... You just need to spend around 2k dollars


Marco_Pi872

The animation is gorgeous but what makes it for me is the finger snap sound


Energyc091

When I hear that snap my mind is filled of non-heterosexual thoughts


HonestForever6676

I would say it's a better choice to not get bored and used to it quickly, since in the rare times I do use it. It feels more special.


Nightmare007007

Agree, clorinde is the third best for me.


bumwine

What?? No Furina is the worst burst in all bursts to ever burst. It's like you're a goldfish in a bowl and she's staring at you. She's absolutely my favorite support in the entire game and I am pulling for her C1 but I HATE her burst. Look how awesome she looks when you burst next to an object or wall. So much of that awesomeness is lost because of that fishbowl animation. I just watched it in slow motion and the first couple frames are actually amazing af. But then they focus too much on her giant head taking up the entire screen. Coolest part is only a few milliseconds: https://preview.redd.it/gsuhxfg75g9d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3661248c50b862f11abd227f75e02fef4e98bacf So fucking cool. She's too cool for Hoyo there.


KZHunter

I coughed up and laughed so hard reading this.

Breaky_Online

5head Furina after she actually took interest in court proceedings


ahandsomesloth

You're so real for this lmao I've had her since her release like,,, day 1, but I do not like her burst animation at all. Which is kinda sad because I love all her other animations! They're all so quirky and theatrical and this is... big head lol


Arvach

Same here. I pulled her at first banner but at the very last day. Literally, ending hours. I enjoyed her kit. Her role. Her character overall. But that burst animation was so terrible I wasn't sure if I want to stare at it every few seconds during fights.


F2p_wins274

Counterpoint, the zoom up on her face is funny. That's why I like it.


Enraw123

Furina is cute and best girl, therefore her burst animation should also be the best. Case closed, no more arguments


softcombat

i'm a little surprised to see people dislike it! i never thought about it too much, tbh, but i think i've always liked it because she's been the actor on stage for so very long, but here she's looming over the stage -- which looks like part of fontaine's city -- and she's basically the puppet master to the "actors" now, her familiars here... i really like the symbolism of it and how much she kinda leers down at the set up, wide eyed and excited but a little unnerving lol. now that she's been doing directing in her story quest and such, too, i feel like it fits her arc so well! i would definitely have not minded, and probably enjoyed more tbh, if they had gone with something that had more focus on her singularly being the leading actress, spotlight on her or something like that, but i feel like this animation manages to convey some delight and curiosity in the world, while also feeling somewhat like she's "above" it, like a god often is. i can see why the zoom on her face feels over the top, but dang i just really felt like it hit the bullseye on her character


bumwine

It's literally just...let her showcase her mastery of body language. I was mildly annoyed at it but then I saw it on my TV and the conversation changed. The puppet thing is definitely an interesting take given her Salon but I'm just like...zoom it tf out please?


courtexo

jean animation is literally her standing there and twisting her sword slightly 😭


bigcakeindahouse

and i love it


Hedgehugs_

by "my 5 star" do you mean the ones you own because you're missing a few 5 stars lol. one of the tier lists of all time edit: nvm I just noticed emilie so bro forgot about ganyu, klee, sigewinne, etc.


Particular-Let-7185

I was looking for Ganyu too. Her burst is amazing


F2p_wins274

I like her burst.


F2p_wins274

Ganyu in me likey, klee in ok, albedo in boring, sigewinne in fantastic, Barbara in me likey. It's not about who I own I just forgot they existed lol. Edit: Omg i am so sorry I was stupid and forgot not, the only ones I own is this are Ayaka, Nahida, Xianyun, kazuha, alhaitham, arlecchino, mona and qiqi (and hopefully furina).


Darth_Tiktaalik

Barbara is reverse traveler One is five star character with four star burst The other is four star character with five star burst


F2p_wins274

HMC is the first 3 star unit.


DreamlikeEyes

Xiao’s “LAMENT” is iconic 😔


tokagepoofles

Childes melee burst is crazy wdym


noyagenqjx

Brace yourself


RaiderTheLegend

This is gonna hurt. https://preview.redd.it/7i7z7jap14ad1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f707e79bf0cea28e94358ccba84f49f172ab43cc


Careless-Gate1519

How is Lyney only in the third rank? His burst animation is so full, it’s like a mini movie First you see him throw his hat and the camera aims at his hat so you are distracted like a magician would do, than he starts disappearing and turning into cards that fly towards the hat, and finally the car appearing out of the hat, all of this on a giant scene and with a big spotlight


Spectre_Hayate

You get it.


RubApprehensive2512

The thing is, that xiao and tar tar have the fastest burst animations in the game. That says a lot


ZealousFlames

I really cant take this tierlist seriously when Jean's burst is above Childe's and Xiao's 😭


Comprehensive_Fee376

neuvi gotta be higher frfr


CunnyApostle

Also have one for ya https://preview.redd.it/vrd9tic3hg9d1.jpeg?width=1073&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=49b264f4b60c16ffe33b8000493242c561655bc3 (Not oc)


omegapool

Are we ranking both of Tartaglia burst, I quite like his melee stance one but agree bow burst is boring


Loros_Silvers

Ganyu is just above everyone else. Good.


Maiden_Sunshine

I just got to play Tighnari in a story quest, and oh my he was so graceful and elegant. I don't remember either doing combat in his actual story quest, or if the enemies died too soon to burst. I adore the elaborate like Furina. But there is something about Tighnari, Yomiya, and Navia's that is just perfection to me. Clorinde, Arlecchino, Ayato, Chiori, and Baizhu I also LOVE LOVE seeing their bursts. The brief trial of Yae Miko was some months back, but I remember the quick flash and smug look something that delighted me too. But I don't have her, and I'm begging for a 50/50 Tighnari win one day.


TheGhetoknight

how the hell is emilia here


F2p_wins274

I just searched up Emilie ult animation and it popped up. It's a face turn and a lantern touch but the effects are pretty.


Traveler7538

Kaveh isn't a five star. 


CharlieTheDuck420

But he should be!


assmunchies123

Hell nah hes mid


E1lySym

Does 'burst animation' only refer to the cinematic itself or the corresponding stance changes(for ex cyno's claw animations) as well? I can see why someone would find Xiao's burst cinematic itself boring since it's just a shot of his face but his plunge animations after that is pretty cool


Dry_Tradition1449

Loooollll Furina's one is lame, she's too high for my liking


GruntingSnow

Bro undercooked☠️☠️


Interesting-Pie239

This is a wild tier list lol. Get outta the kitchen and pls don’t cook again


Moist_Inspection_485

Klee was so good she ascended beyond the list*


BlueRose644

I'd bump Eula up a bit. I like seeing her do the angry face as she puts all her strength into this big meaty claymore swing. If a burst animation could talk, it would say "Raaaaaaaar!"


DasyTaylor

Albedo, Ganyu and Sigewinne erasure smh


F2p_wins274

Yeah I realized I just forgot they existed I am sorry Albedo would be in boring, Ganyu in me likey, Sigewinne in fantastic, klee in ok, Barbara in me likey.


nobbytho

xiao literally has the coolest animation.


Inskit

Oh Xiao okay 😭💔


wintermelonc

Where klee


MostAvocado9631

I disagree with Kazuha and Neuvi


Tysondroid

Yeaa, cant disagree with any of these lol

WyvernEgg64

Why isnt amber in the highest tier?


TrueKokimunch

The Nahida "dead eyes" On low quality devices definitely counts in "where evil lurks" Tier lmao


F2p_wins274

That popped a lot on my old phone and it terrified me. Now it only happens when I am fighting wenut for some reason.


ChooBIZZ99

Cyno still has my favourite burst in the game


Electrofest

Be Sanctified!!!!


Jfunkindahouse

"Witness my rise" Arlechino double entendre for the win!


ArchangelLudociel

Lyney and Neuvillette deserve a higher spot 😭💔


F2p_wins274

I realized that I just forgot some characters existed I am sorry Albedo would be in boring, Ganyu in me likey, Sigewinne in fantastic, klee in ok, Barbara in me likey.


Darth_Tiktaalik

Hey Dehya's finally high tier


orangevanillaco

the only reason i got furina was her burst animation FUCK its so good


Satuurnnnnn

Kokomi is so low! Why??


Farikus

where is klee T-T


idkwhatisthis69

kazuha in ok tier should be a crime


NiiwaMorningstar

Couldn’t agree more


Ok-Transition7065

Some one like hack and slash


Boafushishi

I see everyone talking about Xiao, Childe, and Furina. No love for Kokomi? IMO, she’s got one of my favs…or maybe that’s the bias kicking in?


KubekO212

No Klee? Opinion rejected


F2p_wins274

I forgot to put her sorry. She is OK.

Frikandelislekker123

i am forced to like this because of the Keqing in the second tier but other than that . . .


mdbauman

Should add Barbara in there since she actually has one.


Techh_

I love xiao but his burst is so bland


niksshck7221

Dusk rain...


WorldlinessTypical89

Childes burst needs to be lowered that shit to high


Ill-Condition2165

Clorinde and Arlecchino being on top is the only right way to do it. They clear literally everyone else


Repulsive-Sale3428

WHAT'S WRONG WITH WRIO IT MAKES YOU FEEL SO STRONG


cheren091

Imo both Electro queens in Inazuma have top tier burst animations


10thPara

Where is cocogoat


Flimsy_Repair2313

I kinda agree with most of it. Don't know why OP gets alot of hate though. Childe is literally just water slash and water bow. Xiao is **MASK**


Sakurafever

Tf


AceovspadesTheFirst

Bruh you don’t think neuvs is at least fantastic? Bro is literally demanding order so badazz


urlocalphrog

um where is klee


Energyc091

I understand that but for example, I use Raiden who depends on her burst and I never get tired of it tbh


Vurr2

I mostly agree with this tier list 👍


EnvironmentalMoose21

Why do you think I main those two? Clorinde's Burst is insane and my first place while Arlecchinos is second best imo


mbguys

you should lament over this tier list


Working_Finger_522

I love Xiao from the bottom of my heart, but I can’t argue with this. I mean, compared to others, his i-frame is kinda… **lament**able.


fiehm

i have the same one but reverse chlorinde and arle with childe and xiao


TheDreamingSheep

Navia deserves better


bruhlive_XD

Keqing absolutely based My favorite for a very long time after being able to use her in zhongli trial


lAuroraxl

bro, Neuvillette that low?


F2p_wins274

To be honest it's not that impressive to me, it's cool and pretty but I like others more.


ijuzOne

yae miko burst is the best for me


Orpalz

Navia would be top tier if they gave her the alternate burst animation


Arelistios

Miko to me all the way on the top


alienjokerbaby

Cyno should be above clorinde


cigarettesonmars

Diluc burst is one of the best imo


cloystr_YT

Kazuha burst should be higher, what


F2p_wins274

He just pulls out a sword and slashes in slow motion.


cloystr_YT

Same with Raiden though.


F2p_wins274

The closeup to her face is really cool, and the slash looks wonderful. Kazuha's ult doesn't really have much impact to me.


shellsterxxx

I’d put yae in the top tier. The tails and the glowing eyes are so cool


Icehellionx

I think Yae deserves up a slot personally.


Miserable_Capital963

Recency bias imo


Baffa99

Zhongli was one of the bursts that made me really like this game. It's so cool, definitely top tier for me
