| Character Details | As the leader of all matra, General Mahamatra Cyno is well known to everyone in the Akademiya. His duties are to arrest those who violate the Akademiya's rules and regulations, terminate illegal studies, and uphold discipline of the Akademiya. Nevertheless, researchers feel that this General Mahamatra does nothing but undermine academic progress and prohibit scientific research. Some even claim that he is "cutting off the path to knowledge" and can be seen as a dire threat to any researcher eager to seek knowledge... Over time, researchers have come to shrink away from Cyno in silence whenever they so much as see him, wanting to have nothing to do with him. But the General Mahamatra is hardly bothered by such things. If this exaggerated public image can really deter some researchers, that will in no way be an inconvenience for his work. Plus, in the words of that Forest Watcher friend of his, "The research conducted by most researchers is nowhere significant enough to result in a talk with a matra." |
| Character Story 1 | Wisdom can bring enlightenment to scholars, but can also lead to utter arrogance. In the history of the Akademiya, many researchers have used their "wisdom" to commit crimes. For example, in order to test the limit of the Specters' body inflation, one Amurta researcher adopted an illegal catalyst and created a mega-sized Specter, which later exploded during the experiment and leveled the entire research center. Then, there was a researcher from Spantamad who had aimed to test a Ruin Guard's ability to cultivate fields, but lost control of the modified machine, resulting in the ruin of many farmlands and grave injuries for several farmers. There have also been numerous criminal cases concerning academic fraud and the abuse of intelligence for personal gain... Such researchers, who do not abide by the law and pose dangers to others, will all be pursued and judged by the matra led by Cyno. When they stand before the matra, these researchers will almost always spare no effort to justify themselves. Their reasons have included but are not limited to suddenly cut funds, the Akademiya's favoritism towards other researchers, the results of their work being stolen... Some may even accuse the matra of stopping them from completing their research out of jealousy of their talents. Cyno's response to such sophistry is always to stay silent and press forward in subduing all those garrulous criminals and sending them to trial. Those who violate the rules can always come up with a million excuses. However, only one ending awaits them. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 2 |
| Character Story 2 | The name of the General Mahamatra has traveled well beyond the Akademiya's walls. According to a Forest Watcher in the Avidya Forest, he once caught a glimpse of this General Mahamatra quietly traveling through the woods in the middle of the night. A person living on the outskirts of Apam Woods can still clearly remember how a white-haired teenager asked them for a bowl of water, before venturing deep into the forest alone with just a traveling pack on his back. Adventurers resting in Sobek Oasis claim to have given directions to Cyno, though the area he was heading to had been packed with monsters. Even the proudest mercenaries and Treasure Hoarders in the Great Red Sand dare not make things difficult for the General Mahamatra, having learned this lesson well from the example of a mercenary group that was annihilated in the desert for sheltering wanted researchers. However, for those criminals who have fallen into the hands of Cyno, their reverence for the General Mahamatra usually comes from another aspect of his character. When escaping from the Akademiya, criminals tend to flee in an extreme panic, and can sometimes stray into perilous places. Yet, instead of letting them suffer the consequences, Cyno will come to their rescue without hesitation, just so that he can bring them back to the Akademiya to face their proper punishment. Once, a criminal who had crossed the Great Red Sand with Cyno asked him about the point of doing all this. Cyno replied, "Only the law can judge you, and my role here is to bring you to face the scales." After being released from prison, the researcher, who had been a Vahumana graduate, turned their adventures returning to the Akademiya into a novel titled "The Goon," which remains a bestseller in the Akademiya. The researcher was even invited by Vahumana to give a lecture, during which they went into great detail about the portrayal of "justice" in the book. If you ask Cyno, however, he would say that certain parts of the book were heavily exaggerated. In truth, they did not encounter any monsters created by the descendants of King Deshret, nor did they stray into a living labyrinth at the bottom of the desert or survive a sandstorm in the folds of a humongous Wenut. Nevertheless, Cyno did appreciate the candidness with which the author described their own crimes, and would like to remind them to not commit such crimes ever again. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 3 |
| Character Story 3 | In the Akademiya, the mere mention of the matra's office can make any researcher's heart seize up. Apart from the renowned "evil deeds" of the matra, what disturbs them even more is how creepy, dry laughter can be heard from the office whenever Cyno walks in... Researchers firmly believe that this must be the matra's way of expressing smug satisfaction at the sight of Cyno passing judgment on some hapless researcher. But only the matra know that the laughter is a response to Cyno's unique sense of humor. "I once worked on a case where the researcher involved was under great pressure because his paper had been rejected multiple times at the review stage. He eventually rammed it through by successfully bribing the members of his review committee. However, the data in that paper was so wrong that it didn't even take long to be exposed as academic fraud. When I went to arrest this researcher, he asked me 'what have I done wrong?'..." After a pause, Cyno continued, "I answered, 'Your paper.'" Seeing the matra all sit there in silence, Cyno seemed to be worried that they did not get the joke, so he went on to explain it with a serious expression, "You see, the interesting part of this story lies in how, when he asked me what he had done wrong, he expected me to say that his fault lay with his bribing of the committee due to academic pressure, yet I told him that his error was in not reaching the correct conclusions in his paper. The clever part about this joke is that I changed the subject that was being discussed..." After he finished explaining, the matra all exchanged looks before letting out a few dry, strangled laughs in concert... The awkward laughter lent a strange sense of human warmth then to the often somber and solemn matra office. However, to prevent such an awkward situation from ever happening again, the matra gradually came to a consensus that after Cyno finishes telling a joke, everyone in the room must force out a laugh or two in response so that he will not start explaining it. On the other hand, any matra who attempts to imitate Cyno's style will be harshly punished by the others through extreme means such as confiscating their canteen meal tickets. After all, one Cyno is enough for the whole division. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 4 |
| Character Story 4 | Cyno has always believed that the matra are not the enemies of those who seek knowledge. Cyrus, a scholar who tutored Cyno before, once told him that without the Akademiya's laws, "wisdom" will soon turn into "calamity." These floating scraps of out-of-control "wisdom" are like bait on a sea of ignorance, luring innocent knowledge seekers into the abyss. They will make researchers far too arrogant and reckless, to the point where they may even attempt to tamper with life and death due to their lack of respect for human life. Eventually, they shall cause irreparable damage to the world. The sages keep introducing new rules and regulations precisely to ensure that the knowledge seekers of the Akademiya will not be misled and go astray because of such bait. The matra who hunt down those who violate the law and judge them according to those same laws are in fact the "guardians" of all those who seek knowledge in the Akademiya. However, in the eyes of researchers, they are but a bunch of "demolishers" who constantly, violently cut off their paths to knowledge. "Dumb humanoid Fungi," "Mr. You-Can't-Do-This," "Paper Shredders"... These are all nicknames they have come up with for the matra. Among them, the most notorious one is "the Akademiya's Sumpter Beasts," a name coined by a Haravatat researcher. When they first heard of this nickname, most of the matra were rather enraged, reckoning that the researchers thought too little of their hard work. On the contrary, Cyno noted that he actually fancied it quite a bit. "We matra are indeed Sumpter Beasts who walk the Akademiya's halls, carrying the rules and regulations on our backs." "When exercising our rights, each of us must always keep that weight in mind." After pondering the matter for a while, this General Mahamatra added, "Plus, we could stand to be more like Sumpter Beasts in avoiding pointless arguments and focusing on, ahem, getting to our desired destination." * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 5 |
| Character Story 5 | When the Akademiya was first established, its researchers wielded their boundless imagination and innovation to the fullest with the abundant resources available at their beck and call. They had reshaped terrain, controlled the weather, recreated ancient relics... But when the knowledge of the earth could no longer satisfy their insatiable curiosity, some researchers turned their focus to the starry skies, whereas some others attempted to tamper with life and death. However, these kinds of knowledge were not things they should or could have touched upon. To prevent researchers from being devastated by their own knowledge, the sages laid out six cardinal sins. They held that all the crimes in this world derive from these six sins. The first is to interfere with human evolution; The second is to tamper with life and death; The third is to delve beyond the universe; The fourth is to investigate the origin of words; The fifth is to revere gods without acts of devotion; The sixth is to attempt the forbidden and fear none. Since then, the sages have been introducing new rules and regulations according to these six deadly sins while amending and revising old ones. The matra enforce the laws, and the researchers perform their roles accordingly as well. In this way, everything in the Akademiya functions in a desirable manner, and the Akademiya and its researchers have been marching forward with thriving clarity of wisdom ever since. As time has passed, the six ancient sins seem to have been forgotten by most, and ambitious people have been on the move since... However, for Cyno, the current General Mahamatra, what he ought to do has not changed. He will, according to the six ancient deadly sins, justly judge all the lawbreakers. Even sages shall not be exempt. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 6 |
| Cyno's Genius Invokation TCG Deck Box | This deck box, which contains Cyno's Genius Invokation TCG deck, is his favorite physical possession. The exterior of this deck box is wrapped with multiple layers of high-quality leather, and every seam has been carefully handled. As long as the rope fixed on the leather remains tightly tied, the entire deck box will be completely sealed, and not even a drop of water can get through. The interior is padded with silk, which can minimize the bending of card corners. According to the shop owner, the silk used was all imported from Liyue and made from top-quality Silk Flowers. This deck box even comes with a tough leather strap, so the buyer can easily affix the box to any part of their body. The surface of the deck box is even engraved with the Genius Invokation TCG emblem and the name of one who purchased it. Cyno has put his strongest deck in this box. He believes that as long as he gets to duel with this deck, he will be nothing short of invincible. Of course, the next thing to do is to find a couple players who are willing to play against him. Hmm... Would that Forest Watcher be available at the moment? * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 4 |
| Vision | When it comes to how Cyno got his Vision, many versions of the story can be found circulating in the Akademiya. Some say that he was once instructed to arrest a researcher who had been studying methods of making counterfeit Visions. The researcher had previously bought a masterless Vision for research, which then became Cyno's Vision. Some believe that Cyno is actually a descendant of King Deshret. They say that he grew up in a temple located in the Great Red Sand and was raised by a nameless Hermanubis priest who cultivated Cyno's will and strength before, when he was ready, bestowing upon him a Vision and requiring him to cross the desert all by himself to arrive at the Akademiya and enact Hermanubis' will. Of course, according to some conspiracy theories, Cyno's Vision is closely connected with certain forbidden technologies hidden within the Akademiya. Otherwise, how could this member of the desert ilk earn a spot in the Akademiya? No one dares to check any of the stories' authenticity with Cyno in person, and Cyno himself cannot be bothered to waste energy on these ridiculous rumors. The truth is that the way he obtained his Vision was rather simple. It was the day before he was about to become the new General Mahamatra. As per usual, after finishing his work as a matra, Cyno went to the library to read books relating to the Akademiya's rules and regulations. He can still well remember that the book he was reading that day mainly talked about the six cardinal sins that the sages had decided on, which they held to be the origins of all crimes and thus served as the foundation for all the modern rules and regulations of the Akademiya. While he was reading the chapter on "to attempt the forbidden and fear none," he failed to fathom some chunks of the content depicted in the book, so he closed his eyes and ruminated. The moment he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a Vision, laid nicely on the page. Cyno looked at the Vision and fell into contemplation. He first confirmed that there was no existing rule that prohibited someone from being granted a Vision. Then he went over several academic cases with Visions involved and ensured that this Vision was not some malicious trap. He went on to ponder the challenges he might encounter after becoming the General Mahamatra and how this Vision might help in these future trials... After carefully weighing up the pros and cons, Cyno finally accepted this gift from the gods earnestly. By then, the morning light was already shining through the windows. Cyno left the library with the Vision and his as-yet-unfinished read in hand before heading over to the location where he was to be inaugurated as the General Mahamatra. If all went well, in half an hour, he would become the Akademiya's new General Mahamatra. He was about to be entrusted with the sacred power to judge those who had erred, and this Vision would ensure that this sacred privilege could be exercised as intended. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 6 |

When will Mihoyo release a decent 5* from Sumeru? Thignari, Nilou and Cyno are all awful. Cyno is literally a worse Keqing and she is a standard character from launch.
Why do Mihoyo hate Sumeru so much?
The Sumeru characters aren’t inherently “awful”. I’m puzzled by how more Dendro characters aren’t being released first. Those characters would at least have more synergy with the roster of units we currently have available.
It’s kinda like introducing Shenhe before releasing Cyro units that can’t use her Icy Quills. Or buying a video game before having a compatible device to play it on.
I heard that Nahida, Dendro Archon, will be a great support for him (like Shenhe with Cyro Unit), she will buff a huge EM for the team and has long duration burst. It’s just that Cyno is realeased without any good sp.
If his burst lasted less time with higher multipliers to offset the decreased duration, he would have been more tempting to pull for. Because you will have to swap him mid burst in order to maximise your dps. That is if you even care about abyss to begin with.
If the Nahida leaks are true, and she has permanent Dendro application like Raiden then that changes the way you look at Cyno.
if his multipliers ever got raised to make up for a shorter duration, he wouldn’t be able to work with Aggravate as well as any of the other electro characters, you’d be better off running him with Bennett than a Dendro character at that point and he’d just be boring.
I do abyss to get 600 gems for the characters that I wanted. It was not the other way around.
I’ve been trampling abyss with meme teams. There is no need to stress yourselves with optimal this optimal that lol
cyno dmg is similar to keqing due to support buffers like kazuha,sucrose running out in 8 sec but keqing is a decent unit now unlike before
so i wouldnt call cyno a bad unit.
I’d like to think that somewhere down the line, HYV will release characters that provide longer buff windows. Especially if more units like Cyno are in the works. Would definitely mix up the meta too. We’d have more options rather than juggling the same support units.
Bennett Impact and Xingqiu Impact be like lmao
Bennett, Xingqiu, and Xiangling will always be there with you until the fall of Celestia lmao
Facts rofl
my buddy xiao been there for almost 2 years lmao
Xiao’s Burst remains a mystery to me. Even more so that he is an Anemo DPS and not Swirl-based. Why doesn’t he have an appropriate support yet? Like for Itto – the duration of Gorou’s Burst get extended by Crystalize reactions.
Perhaps this is HYV’s way of keeping players in “suspense”.
What kind of anemo support do you think xiao needs? Battery? Buffer? Or perhaps anemo shielder?
@Zyox A decent anemo res shredder would be a nice start, coupled with plunge attack bonus unit like Candace/Yun Jin and you have a Gorou level buffer for him
I think Xiao needs a consolidated support (like some mix of Diona and Gorou) that covers all three of your examples:
– Elemental Skill could provide an Anemo shield and generate a good amount of particles.
– Elemental Burst gives a buff (maybe Anemo Damage Bonus)
Something like that.
If we can’t have it all, Xiao needs a support that both shields and batteries at the very least.
Unrelated but when is 3.4? I’m saving for Yelan speculated rerun
Patch 3.3 starts on 7/December/2022. If it lasts for 5 weeks, then 3.4 will start on 11/January/2023 otherwise on 18/January/2023.
Thank you that’s very helpful
Am I supposed to level his Normal Attack Talent?
No
Who’s gonna fucken stop me
No, his burst mode have different scalings, like Raiden. Work on his burst and skill. NA on him are utterly useless, unless u are building him physically or with an infusion support character like c6 bennet
does that mean, “the catch” actually good on him?
Yes but Cyno has to fight Raiden and Guoba for it
Nah. The attacks during his burst aren’t considered burst damage (unlike Raiden’s). The Catch is kinda bad on him.
Not really. Unlike Raiden, the attacks he makes during his burst duration aren’t considered burst damage.
Leveling up his Normals is like leveling up raiden’s Normals. Think about it.
Is his normal attack worth leveling up or should I focus just on burst and e skill??
Only burst and E
Focus on skill and burst. He won’t be using his normal attacks in his rotation and his burst has separate scaling from his normal attacks.
Primo trap kekw. Keqing is 2 times stronger and is cheap to build and use. Not to mention you probably have her from random 50/50 loss. Cyno just a weak puppy
Simp alert*
Oh if only this game had any kind of content where the strength of a character actually matters. How the hell a harmless, casual and dumb game got such a autistic and insufferable audience like this??
that’s… actually a really good question and i have no idea why it is this bad
lmao hard cope
You’re acting like big damage is necessary in this easy af baby game lmao
Is it true he’s like 5* Razor? Cuz Razor kinda sucks
Yes, but actually No, since razor mechanic mosthly focused on physical attack and cyno focused on Electro and he’s more synchronized with Aggrevate + swirl reaction, which is kinda OP, and Expect Nahida kit would be dendro off field applicator
Yeah, I predict Nahida to be an off-field dendro applicator with either healing to the team and/or elemental-skill dmg boost (similar to Raiden with burst dmg).
Especially the latter option makes sense in my eyes, bc both Cyno AND Nilou have parts in their kits that specifically are considered elemental-skill dmg, so it’d make sense that a character in the near future will boost that dmg.
And considering that both character will 100% need and use a dendro character, it makes sense that Nahida will be the one who does that, I guess
Not at all interested in him but hot mommy Candace is on his banner… sigh at least my pity is low.
then why are you here.
Candace’s design is great, but her kit is a bit of a mess too. She won’t be very useful.
Candace is boring. I’d rather throw her to that other boring waifu this patch so that there’s a chance there are better characters on Cynos banner like Heizou.
Is Heizou still relevant??? lol
I think he already joined Itto in the lack-of-relevance bin
This guy would join there too after a few weeks from release
Relevant lol? Yeah Heizou is the best 4 star catalyst user we’ve got so far, saying he’s irrelevant now is just hilarious
in the correct teams itto is literally one of the strongest dps characters in the game rn so idk what you’re on about. heizou is decent in a vacuum but lacks dedicated supports for running him as anything but a driver for beidou/fischl/xingqiu/yelan
Itto is … quite literally … the highest Geo DPS at C6 right now. His overall damage during is burst is able to one-phase Ruin Serpent. Not one hit, but one Q duration.
Itto’s DPS has infinite potential through his C1 and C6 effects. Unlikely youll ever see a string of CA’s that doesnt end, but its possible.
No, he’s not one-slash C3 Raiden, nor is he cheesed out C6 Hu Tao or absurd talent value C6R5 Ayaka. But Itto is extremely good DPS for the element he uses.
3.1 is so boring. It lasts until Nov 2 god that’s so damn long. Cyno and Nilou are such mid chars. And then we have another boring loli archon… I guess all the exciting characters are coming next year
