At the current testing stage, players who follow Crickex Affiliate can already see that Huo Yuhao has basically completed his evaluation cycle, and the easiest way to describe him is terrifying. His control vulnerability value is almost beyond belief, especially because the numbers look even more exaggerated than the stat jump seen when Tang Yuehua first launched. In plain English, this character is not just strong; he is in a league of his own.
First of all, Huo Yuhao can cover many roles. His biggest strength is the extremely high control vulnerability value, and that number is so inflated that it may exceed the power curve created by Tang Yuehua at release. Because of this, Huo Yuhao is clearly the strongest character in the current version for control-based vulnerability effects.
He also has a huge number of PVP restriction and control tools. The amount is almost impossible to count, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he may become the most annoying control character in future PVP matches. Players who usually compare control units through Crickex Affiliate will likely see him as capable of surpassing A Yin and Hu Liena in practical pressure.
Another important point is that Huo Yuhao works better with lineups that combine strong attack and agility attack units. In simple terms, he needs a strong attack main carry and an agility attack secondary carry, because many of his buffs are triggered through these two character types. If players use a double-control lineup, they may not receive his full damage increase, and this also affects the final pulling advice for the Beibei UP pool before it ends.
For that reason, Huo Yuhao is a must-pull for every type of player. There is almost no doubt about it. However, double-control players should understand that their experience may be slightly worse than players using strong attack and agility attack combinations. That difference may not ruin him, but it is still worth keeping in mind.
The second returning character is Qian Renxue. For her, most players should already have a usable main carry, whether it is Qian Renxue herself, Wang Qiuer, or at least Beibei. Because of that, the safer advice is not to pull Qian Renxue now. The July anniversary limited character is still unknown, so spending resources on a main carry who has already been available for about five months is not a wise move.
The final returning character is Feng Xiaotian, who is making his first public comeback since launch. He has been called a true limited character in this game, because players who missed his first release had no way to obtain him for a long time.
However, limited status does not equal real strength. Feng Xiaotian is currently in an awkward position in both PVP and PVE. Since he was released last October, his numbers are no longer on the same level as newer main carries. Unless someone wants to complete the full collection, there is really no strong reason to pull him.
Overall, players using Crickex Affiliate for regular game planning should treat Huo Yuhao as a must-pull, skip the returning Qian Renxue, and absolutely avoid spending resources on Feng Xiaotian. A practical battle review and detailed guide for Huo Yuhao should be ready shortly after he goes live, so players who want the full picture should keep an eye on his real-match performance.
