Genshin Impact: KisaragiAsh's Ningguang cosplay is just perfect

Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact Update 2.7 will arrive a few weeks behind Hoyoverse's schedule. While waiting for news on the new release date, there is no better way to pass the wait than by admiring a Ningguang cosplay signed by KisaragiAsh, which once again masterfully interprets Liyue's Tianquan.

Ningguang is one of the "veteran" characters of Genshin Impact, having been in the game since its launch in 2020, and has a major role in all events that take place in the Liyue region. She is in fact the leader of the Qixing, a committee formed by the major merchants of the state that governs the city. She is described as a successful business woman who has built her immense fortune through hard work and a dense network of contacts and informants that she has built up over time.

KisaragiAsh had already impressed us in the past with the Ningguang blue evening dress from the Lyue festival. Today's cosplay is equally successful and is based on the classic version of the character, with the elegant traditional Chinese dress. This interpretation really does not lack anything: from the wig to the costume all the details are taken care of down to the smallest detail, as well as the location and the post-production effects that give that extra touch of character to the shot that never hurts.


If you are looking for other cosplay, we suggest that of Poison Ivy, one of Batman's nemeses, signed by Enot. Staying on the Genshin Impact theme, however, we recommend the Yelan cosplay signed by Larissa Rochefort and the Yae Miko cosplay by Peachmilky.

3-time Dota Major winner MidOne secretly whales for Genshin waifu Kamisato Ayaka

Play now and get your waifu going.

Long-time professional Dota 2 player and Team SMG’s position 1 player Yeik “MidOne” Nai Zheng doesn’t just spend his days destroying Ancients — he explores the vast world of Genshin Impact’s Teyvat as well.

The ex-OG Esports offlaner is known throughout the Dota 2 community as a one of the best Invoker players in the scene alongside Nigma Galaxy’s Amer “Miracle-” Al-Barkawi, Evil Geniuses’ Abed Azel Yusop, and TI10 champion and Team Spirit’s Alexander “Torontotokyo” Khertek.

On his list of achievements, MidOne was the first player to hit 8,000 MMR on the Southeast Asia server, and has bagged three Dota 2 Major championship titles at The Chongqing Major, the MDL Disneyland Paris Major, and DreamLeague Season 8 during his time with Team Secret.

Apart from Dota, he also plays Call of Duty: Warzone, and most recently Genshin Impact.

The Malaysian player posted a screenshot of his Genshin account on Twitter, showing all the characters that he owns in the HoYoverse game. He is very fond of the 5-star character and Cryo sword user Kamisato Ayaka, so much that he has unlocked all of her constellations.

Constellations are upgrades that improve a character’s set of talents. Each newly-acquired Genshin character starts at constellation 0. Players can only unlock each constellation by acquiring another copy of the character, which they have to roll for, up to a maximum of six.

Dance of SuigetsuKamisato Ayaka gains Usurahi Butou every 10s, increasing her Charged Attack DMG by 298%. This buff will be cleared 0.5s after Ayaka’s Charged ATK hits an opponent, after which the timer for this ability will restart.

Similar to Filipino actor and Genshin whale Alden Richards and his C6 Ayato, the pro player probably spent an estimated amount of US$3,000 to get a C6 Kamisato Ayaka in a worst-case scenario.

This estimated computation does not include the free Primogems that can be obtained through quests, Masterless Starglitters that can be converted to Intertwined Fates, and the extra Genesis Crystals that come with certain top-ups.

MidOne has yet to reveal his total and official spending in the game. However, one thing is for sure — his love for Ayaka is immeasurable.

Aside from Ayaka, he also owns two other 5-star characters, Diluc and Mona, and has plenty of 4-stars in his party such as Sayu, Sucrose, Xingqiu, Rosaria, Bennett, and Xiangling. MidOne’s account is currently level 40 at world level 5.

His former teammate, Martin “Saksa” Sazdov, marveled at the rarity of his tweet rather than the impressive C6 Kamisato Ayaka.

“You gotta play it, Martin,” he convinced his friend. “Get your waifu going.”

Aside from MidOne, Alliance’s Henrik “Admiral Bulldog” Ahnberg has also played Genshin.
