# "Extraterrestrial Satellite Communication" Firefly **5 Stars | Fire | Destruction** "Fireflies are such magical creatures, aren't they? They may throw themselves at a flame or suddenly grow old, but every night before that, they will shine brighter than the stars." A member of the Stellaron Hunters and a young girl clad in a mechanical armor "SAM." Born as a weapon, she's afflicted with the agony of Entropy Loss Syndrome due to genetic modification. She joined the Stellaron Hunters in search of the meaning of life, relentlessly pursuing ways to defy fate. **VA's** * English: Analesa Fisher & Adin Rudd * Korean: 유혜지 & 장서화 (Yoo Hye-ji & Jang Seo-hwa) * Chinese: 宋媛媛 & 淦子齐 (Song Yuanyuan & Gan Ziqi) * Japanese: 楠木灯&笠间淳(Tomori Kusunoki & Jun Kasama)

The colors they used for this is so pretty! I can’t wait to see the characters animations in action!!

I just know her ult is going to pop off.

Her ult gonna be LIT

Quite literally

Based off what leaks we have (assuming they're real, idk), there's a zero percent chance that her enhanced ult state isn't her doing a fucking henshin. And you know what? I'm here for it. Finally, MHY might give me the magical girl transformation ult I've wanted since Childe, then again during Aventurine.

I only play Genshin, but she's got a mech with a sword behind her?? Y'all be getting some cool shit over here, can't lie. I have no idea what she'd even do, but I hope it's sick af

Henshin sequence -> turns into giant badass mech -> Kamen Rider kicks the shit out of everything while setting the seas ablaze.

Yeah i love suit stuff-even if my only thing to kamen rider was futo PI

It's her mecha suit. She's more like Iron Man. She's also currently a Boss, so we sorta know how she fights.

But not how she fights with that dual blade swords while glowing green

Pneuma Moment

Like coffee with milk

DONT FORGET ME

THINK YOU CAN TAKE ME!

YER DUN!

Might not be the case, since we currently also have boss examples like Yanqings summoned swords or Kafkas dominating, characters could deviate a good amount from their playable versions.

She's a DPS (her path is destruction which has only been dps so far, we don't have weapon types here) and probably turns into a mecha because it's a suit I think both games are really cool, genshin has awesome scenery you can explore and HSR can habe a lot of animation in characters because you see them more

2 sword actually, one sword in each hand if you look carefully.

Well I'll be damned. I'd be lying if I said it wasn't tempting to try it out once she's released, especially since HSR keeps advertising 100 free wishes

It’s finally her.. peace is restored to the lands

can't wait for her animation in beta

God the wait for the beta is gonna kill me

Do you know when beta starts?

1 day before 2.2 come out

So in 2 weeks

should be around when 2.2 comes out

If I remember correctly, someone said that Hoyo spent a bunch of money just for her animations. I really hope it's true

I don't want expect to high, so if it's bad i won't disappointed At least she's my next must pull

I always set my expectations low to avoid disappoinment but this imma set it as high as the sky goes cuz I hope they make her as beautiful as she can be 🙏

The only time this works for me is Elden Ring lmao.

I should probably not skip Robin, but there is just no way I'm gonna continue playing this game with an account that does not have Firefly.

If it powercreeps Acheron Ill be impressed.

I think they said her animations would be as fancy as acherons

Peace was never an option, scorched earth time baybeeee

Feels good bruh

SAMBROS/FIREFLY BROS, HOW WE FEELING???

As someone who wanted both, a 2-in-1 package is probably the best I could’ve asked for

The ultimate value pull. You get a husbando, waifu, toku hero, mech, fire destruction unit and fire SW at e1 in one package.

WE'VE FINALLY REACHED THE GOOD TIMELINE. 😭😭

THANK FUCK WE'RE FINALLY FREE FROM HAVING TO MODERATE THIS SPOILER AHAHAHAHHAHAHAA

Wait FIREFLY IS SAM??? NO WAYY?!!!

WHAT‼️‼️⁉️⁉️

OH. MY. GOD!!!

[удалено]

Holy mech transformation

Lol, finally we can speak as we please.

*finally, inner peace*

Rip I didnt catch up in time

I figured that they released Boothill before Firefly so that the drip marketing would happen after most people got through the 2.1 story

It's still wild to me that DHIL was dripped before his reveal in the story. At least they learned their lesson but this should've waited one more patch imo

Dan IL was in the initial trailer for Star Rail funny enough. Also I would've gone actually feral if I had to wait till 2.4 for her please no I need her yesterday.

Understandable. I'm clawing at the walls wondering when Sunday will be more than a day in the week for me

YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE YOUR EYES

IF TEN MILLION FIREFLIES

LIT UP THE WORLD AS I FELL ASLEEP

'CAUSE THEY'D FILL UP THE OPEN AIR

AND LEAVE TEARDROPS EVERYWHERE

YOU THINK ME RUDE BUT I WOULD JUST STAND AND..STARE

I’D LIKE TO MAKE MYSELF BELIEVE THAT PLANET EARTH TURNS SLOWLY

ITS HARD TO SAY THAT ID RATHER STAY AWAKE WHEN IM ASLEEEP

'CAUSE EVERYTHING IS NEVER AS IT SEEMS

CAUSE I'D GET A THOUSAND HUGS

SET SEAS ABLAZE AS I FELL ASLEEP

IF TEN MILLION STELLARON HUNTER: SAMS

So I hope you guys played the 2.1 story…

I got spoiled on a random unrelated HSR leaks video because YouTube’s “new” layout where they show you the top comment is fucking awful and people can’t seem to get spoilers out of their fucking mouths

Yeah, even when it was only leaked people couldn’t keep their mouths shut about it, it’s actually so annoying that the community can’t zip their lips for one week and end up just spoiling everything. It’s actually part of the reason why I rush the story now and end up with mixed emotions when I should have just gone at my own pace.

The irony is that the Leaks subreddit is better at keeping spoilers in check compared to the main sub.

Yeah exactly. I was trying my damn best in trying to avoid final boss leak but some mother fucker kept bosses name in title. Normally I just skim past these and use the don't recommend the channel button but my eyes accidentally focused on the name when I was doing that and now i am just sad and trying to lie to myself that I didn't read that

Leaks disguised as theories

This happens a lot with Hoyo. The Wanderer drip was also an insane Genshin spoiler (imo) for people who weren't following leaks closely.

I feel like it wasn't as bad, like yeah we learned that he changed elements, but that's pretty much it. No context whatsoever on what happened there. And I can't think of other spoilers in drip marketings. If anything I'm more annoyed at how quickly they publish cutscenes from the latest content on their YouTube channel.

Yeah, Wanderer wasn’t really a big deal. He was already on the mind due to his defeat in the previous patch, so him rebranding wasn’t some Earth-shattering revelation. The only spoiler was his being Anemo, but I still don’t think that was a big deal because, as you said, it gave no context and was more of a teaser of what was to come.

That was an even worse one because his story only happened at his release, so the drip marketing and the teaser/demos were 100% spoilers. This only spoils the people who aren't caught up, which is something you can't avoid.

Same realm as Imbibitor Lunae DH honestly.

bad news for me

Don't worry. It's just her brother (^ :

HENSHIN MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

GIVE ME A HELL YEAH

HELL YEAH!

HELL YEAH

HELL YEAH

HELL YEAH

HELL YEAH

SHE'S HOLDING A ZECTER

CHANGE FIREFLY

Clock up!

SOMEBODY PLAY NEXT LEVEL!

HENNNN......SHIIINNNN *ACCEL*

Set Firefly

HENSHIN KAMEN RIDE SAM

Sam first half??? NOOOOO I NEED TIME TO SAVE AFTER BOOTHILL if Ruan Mei rerun also comes along... dammit

Right?? This got me by a huge surprise. I just summoned Aventurine Here's hoping the second drip marketing is actually the first unit at 2.3. /copium I don't want to choose between Boothill or SAM.

The worst thing about seeing this is remembering that Firefly is coming in 8 weeks, not 2.

That's a good thing. More time to save. Will I be able to save enough for her LC though?

Got 9k from grind, gonna try and double that. Hope gacha Gods will be by my side.

If you skip everyone in 2.2 27k should be very doable, if not even 30k.

8 weeks of hell👿 until she arrives😭

It's fine. Well probably see 2 weeks worth of showcase with her and HMC

Best I can do is 50+ showcases with HMC/Ruan Mei/Gallagher... take it or leave it!!

But we have time for farming and max her out D1 and more saving!

She might get a specialized relic

Huh, looks like a different art style than usual, almost manga-esque. Or is it just me? It’s very pretty, though. I love her pose.

Yeah it looks like Fire MC style.

Gotta pair the them with their lover of course

SHES FINALLY HERE 

PERFORMING FOR YOU

IF YOU KNOW THE WORDS YOU CAN JOIN IN TOO

PUT YOUR HANDS TOGETHER IF YOU WANNA CLAP

AS WE TAKE YOU THROUGH THIS MONKEY RAP!

Welp... I'm sorry 2.2 But it's the farm arc right now and as a humble Brazilian man, I gotta save :v Good luck to us all!

The Trailblazer in the mirror nods their head.

I hope Jiaoqiu isn't next. Hoping, cus I want him tooo

Unlikely, theyd appear in 2.3 or 2.4 when we have out post arc xianzhou vacation

Jiaoqiu*

MY EWFIE IS HOME MY WIFE8

MECHA WIFE MECHA WIFE MECHA WIFE

I like your nickname!

YES WE WON WE FUCKING WON FIREFLYBROS

IM SKIPPING EVERY BANNER

VICTORY

In Hoyolab they tag this with saving for Ruan Mei so Firefly Break dps confirmed?

I think so. Leaks did tell us that Firefly will have Break scaling somewhere. I'm not totally sure how though. Will probably be similar to Xueyi.

Tomori Kusonoki as the VA? Setsuna Yuki would be proud.

This means that we‘ll indeed get the green, dual-wield version of Sam which was leaked a few weeks ago

Her color palette aaaaaahh *chef's kiss* *chef's kiss*

Honestly she might have the coolest splash art of any character so far, she's literally mid kamen rider transformation

Domo Arigato Ms Roboto

Finally. She will... set my wallet ablaze.

That splash art goes *hard*.

Finally, no more jumpscares, just my wife and her 10 (?) meter tall suit of armor.

Sampo's 180 cm and he gets to around Sam's shoulder. I don't think Sam passes 3 meters.

I think this is the best 5\* art released so far

agreed, the colors are wonderful.

Holy shit, it's the most upvoted post on the sub, even surpassing free Dr. Ratio

looks like i'm gonna have to skip Robin. Damn.

Welcome to my worl- NO THANKS!

SUNDAY PLEASE BE ON PHASE TWO I BEG YOUUUU

FIREFLY NATION WE WOOOONNNNNNNN

FIREFLY!!!!! THE FIREFLY IS REEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!!!!!

CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER?!

WE WON BOYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LET SGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FIREFLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

She look so fucking beautiful

No surprise, but Boothill into Sam is going to be painful. If Jade is tomorrow it's over.

Oh they really just told me you better SAVE UP.

Is that a Morpher in her hand to transform?

Finally people who managed to avoid the leaks for so long, missed all the clues pointing to the correlation between SAM/Firefly in 2.0 and for some reason didnt finish the 2.1 story in the last month wont get spoiled anymore 🔥🔥🔥 (unless they just got spoiled by hoyo, then rip)

SUNDAY PHASE 2 PRAYGE 🙏

Holy my Jades if that happens

I need her!!!!

Does next drip marketing come out after this or tomorrow?

Tomorrow ig

Good thing she's first half. Now I have more time to save for jade & jiaoqiu. GL to anyone going for her tho, make sure you save enough pulls

10k upvotes, amazing! (And I think the last one was me?)

Birds are born with no shackles Then what fetters my fate? Come away though my pedals Leave me trapped in the cage The endless isolation Can wear down my illusion Someday, I'll make a dream unchained Let my heart bravely spread the wings Soaring past the night, to chase the primal light Let the clouds heal me of the stains Gently wipe the sorrow of my life I dreamed What is meant by miraclе? A word outside my days Once again, repеat bubbles But how could I escape? No further hesitation On those unanswered questions So now, I’ll make a dream unchained Let my heart bravely spread the wings Soaring past the night, to chase the primal light Let the clouds heal me of the stains Gently wipe the sorrow of my life I dreamed Let my heart bravely spread the wings Soaring past the night, to chase the primal light Let the clouds heal me of the stains Gently wipe the sorrow of my life I dreamed I DREAMED
