Summary
AGenshin Impactplayer has encountered a disturbing glitch featuring Fontaine’s most popular magician, Lyney. This character was the first five-star roster addition in the Fontaine arc where he was introduced alongside his sister Lynette who also works as his assistant in Lyney’s magic shows.
Travelers often encounter many different glitches while exploring the Teyvat content, which is not surprising sinceGenshin Impactkeeps introducing new content with every update. One recent glitch including Lyney has left many fans pondering whether it was merely an unfortunate event or part of a magic trick.
A Reddit user named XinXaiXoku has shared a video that shows Lyney dying in a very unsettling way while exploring one ofthe underground locations in Teyvat. While jumping to a lower part of the temple, the player did not account for a smaller platform attached to the wall, which resulted in Lyney’s death. During his death animation, his head appeared to get stuck to be stuck in the platform while the rest of the body continued downward, which resulted in his neck being stretched unnaturally. This weird interaction got a lot of attention in the community as the post reached over 2.9k upvotes onGenshin Impact’s main subreddit. Some comments compared his stretching abilities to Luffy from the popular anime series One Piece.
Despite being introduced as a friendly character,Genshin Impact’s main storylinehas confirmed that Lyney comes from the House of Hearts orphanage. This is a famous facility located in the infamous Snezhnaya region which tainted his reputation in the eyes of the citizens of Fontaine. The revelation of this secret even made HoYoverse change the official splash art for Lyney, Lynette, and Freminet.
Since his release, Lyney has become one of the fan-favorite characters thanks to a kit that goes perfectly with his overall personality. His in-game animations are filled with references to magic, and he’s widely considered one of the best-designed characters on the roster. When it comes to his on-field power,Lyney is a reliable DPS bow userwho can dish out tons of Pyro damage, especially if surrounded by the right supports.
Unlike mostother DPS units inGenshin Impactwho benefit from triggering many different elemental reactions, Lyney actually works best when placed alongside two or three Pyro users. Travelers can add one neutral support like Kazuha to enhance the party’s damage potential.
