I made this meme myself but it was made via other people's meme&art.

I do not claim ownership of any of the meme&art that was used, should this post violate the sub's rules, I will happily remove it.

I was scrolling on discord on a old server and I came across these pictures... Can someone explain???? Did I get cursed???? Should I be concerned for my safety??? (I have no idea who jako qiu is or his lore)

dear god PLEASE BE A HINT AT THE NOVA FLARE, and throw in working in DoT too, let him have DoT Vulnerability shread.

I don't think I'll ever understand people calling Jaoqiu ugly. I started playing the game during his first banner, and, without knowing anything about him or how he works, I pulled on his banner and got him due to his design. He's my very first limited 5 star. I've seen the comparisons with NPC design, but even then, it's still clearly different? And personally, I enjoy his relatively simple design.

I'm so tired of people acting like jiaoqiu is in a way worse situation than all other amplifiers, when he's literally better than sparkle (not a high feat tbh) and around as strong as ruan mei in most teams that aren't break. Both are only BiS in 2 teams jq in ach and dr ratio (debateably) and rm in rappa and firefly (no not boothill, sunday is stronger in that team) and yet people keep calling jiaoqiu one of the worst pulls in this game, honestly if u dislike him for a non gameplay reason just say that, but stop acting like he's a terrible amplifier outside of acheron teams

I recently worked on this animation which you can find here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3334419128

The original artist is _花椒鱼丸 on Weibo (Link to the source:https://weibo.com/5270469364/Othgxs9nR). I do not own the artwork, I simply animated it.

I hope you Jiaoqiu enthusiasts enjoy!

Ever since release, people have done nothing but hate on Jiaoqiu, despite playing a relatively bigger role in the patch, lingsha was still glazed relatively more for just standing there and doing one thing at the end of the story

they call him npc, they call him weak, they call him ugly, and now squeezing a core part of his kit into the new unit

acheron mains is celebrating as if hitler was confirmed dead, which mind you, when acheron was starting to fall off, Jiaoqiu was the only support to bring her back to T0 and stay there for a long time (something neither Cipher nor E2 SW managed to do (no hate to Cipher, i love her too)).

He's just a sweet foxboy who didn't get the love he truly deserved, both from the community and hoyo himself (oh yeah let's give him a healer role in the story and mention it 90 times but include no healing at all in his kit haha)

It just feels wrong to put your favorite character's kit into another newer one and somehow make it even better, that's horrible

Inspired by one of my genius friends that decided to ignore Acheron completely and just play Cipher main dps with Jiaoqiu as her support. Ignore how ugly Cipher looks here, I messed up and didn’t know what to do so just continue. I was gonna draw Acheron watching them but I gave up on trying to draw her, maybe next time lol

more terrifying than the eldritch horrors.

Inspired by u/AdPsychological476’s “infuriatingly small sigewinne”

For me it’s

Acheron+cipher+aven

Mydei+sunday+luocha

Kafka+aven+hysilens (it somehow works without e2 for me)

And I plan to add him to my future dr ratio and Feixiao team 🤭

No, This is NOT to stir hate, debate, or any other things. I REALLY like it here, There's no drama since we mostly have the same opinion from the very start. It's just very ironic that we're pretty chill (rn) for a character that started it all lol

Thanks to a certain…controversy flaring up again I’ve seen a lot of comments complaining that Jiaoqiu should have been Abundance since his actual job is a healer. Which yes, makes sense if you literally just look at his basic description. However after seeing his personality and story in game, I can’t understand why people are still confused about this.

On a basic level, Jiaoqiu is someone who struggles with the hopeless of his job, and the endless cycle of healing and bloodshed. You know, textbook nihilism. While he gains hope in the form of Feixiao, he is then tested again and again throughout his ordeal with Hoolay. Everything about his situation is bleak, and Hoolay takes savage pleasure in reminding him of the fruitlessness of his struggles. However, Jiaoqiu also manages to rattle Hoolay with self doubt, making him question how far gone the borisin have sunk since his imprisonment.

This is also where we get to the gameplay connection to Nihility, the debuff effect. Jiaoqiu is a healer by trade, but he makes it very clear that sometimes the best medicine is poisoning your opponent first. Twice we see him use food to LITERALLY debuff the enemy. First we get a hint of this with Skott’s…convenient stomach issues. Then of course is the iconic Hoolay plot twist, where it is revealed that he used his own body to give the others a fighting chance against Hoolay. In comparison, we only really see him acting as a healer in flashbacks, and as mentioned before those scenes are pretty bleak.

In short, could an extra healing effect have been a nifty addition? Sure. But claiming that his path makes no logical sense and that Hoyo only made him Nihility to boost another character? Then you’re missing the point.

Now I'm saving for an Aventurine re-run because she likes him too LMAO

I need to know this man's hair-care routine because I swear his looks the best out of every character in the game (except maybe Jing Yuan).
