This week, Hoyoverse made an official release of 2 new 5-star characters who will make their debut in version 2.7: Sunday and Fugue, also known as SP Tingyun. Sunday and Fugue, respectively played an important role in the main story of Penacony and Xianzhou Luofu. Both of them are nowhere to found after the related plots ended, leading to many fans' speculations that they would be playable characters in future versions. Now it comes to be true.
Here is the leaked kit info for Sunday but keep in mind that all mentioned below are
based on the speculations so take it with a grain of salt.
Basic Information of Sunday:
Element: Imaginary
Path: The Harmony
Rarity: 5-Star
Sunday Drip Marketing in Honkai Star Rail
The disgraced former head of the Oak Family is a prominent figure in Penacony as the brother of Robin and the main villain in the story. As a Harmony character like his younger sister Robin, he will definitely be a support who can apply buffs to his allies.
Abilities
Based on the leaks now, Sunday's kit involves a new energy "overflow" mechanic, which is said to allow a team's overflowed energy to return to specific characters' energy pools.
In theory, an overflow mechanic can greatly help DPS hypercarries to execute their Ultimates quicker than usual, since it can store the extra energy of other characters in the team for filling DPS characters' energy pool. This mechanic makes Sunday a great support for Jingliu, Firefly and Argenti. It also sets Sunday and Robin apart since they have different support abilities and combination of the 2 characters can further amp up the main DPS's damage.
Sunday’s ultimate lifts an ally with both of his hands in a praying position while thorns wrap around them. Our man Sunday looks majestic, even more so after his drip marketing!
Basic Information of Fugue:
Element: Fire
Path: The Nihility
Rarity: 5-Star
Fugue Drip Marketing in Honkai Star Rail
Ever since Tingyun was seemingly killed off and her body was nowhere to find out in Honkai: Star Rail, there has been rumors that she will make her return in a new form of a 5-star variant. And finnally it came to be ture because Hoyoverse has officially announced Fugue, a Foxian who has her appearance and identity stolen and us given a second life under a new name.
Abilities
As a 5-star Fire character following the Path of Nihility. This would mean that she would become a unit that deals burn damage over time (DOT), possibly turning her into a viable DPS similar to other 5-tar Nihility characters like Jiaoqiu and Acheron.
According to current leaks, Tingyun’s skill attaches a tail to one ally, and when that ally attacks, there’s a 70% chance the target will be inflicted with Burn. Tingyun’s ultimate generates five additional tails, giving her a total of six tails and putting her into a state where, whenever an ally takes action, one tail is consumed. This grants a different buff based on their current Path. Many players have speculated before that 5-star Tingyun would be a support for Break Team, taking the place of Ruan Mei or Harmony Trailblazers in Firefly's team. But based on current leaks, Tingyun's kit makes her more of like a DOT support for Acheron Team or Kafka&Black Swan Team.
Keep in mind, on top of the basic information that's announced by Hoyoverse itself, these kit leaks are from some unofficial sources, so they might not be 100% accurate.
That’s all about Tingyun and Sunday. What do you think about her kit?
