The Fans Who Cheated for Yi Xuan in Zenless Zone Zero

One Chinese named Night Cat Official in Bilibili player spent an entire month planning and saving 900 pulls just to get Vivian from Zenless Zone Zero. He made videos along the way, documenting his journey as he built up enough resources to finally summon her. However, everything changed overnight when a new character, Yi Xuan, was revealed.

The fan, who had been completely focused on Vivian, suddenly dropped his plans and switched his focus to Yi Xuan. He posted a new video with the title, “The plan has changed, pulling for Yi Xuan instead.” The change in direction was shocking, especially since the player’s videos before this reveal had only garnered about 1,000 views.

But after deciding to pull for Yi Xuan, the video went viral, quickly reaching over 700,000 views. The sudden popularity even caught the attention of the media, with articles humorously calling him a “cheater” for changing his mind.

So why the sudden switch? The player explained that while Vivian was cute, her stats didn’t impress him. On the other hand, Yi Xuan was revealed to be a Void Hunter, a character with much stronger performance capabilities. For this fan, the combination of visual appeal and strong gameplay made Yi Xuan a much more attractive choice.

The situation even became a meme within the Zenless Zone Zero community. Hoyo, the game’s developer, poked fun at the fan’s change of heart in one of their official ads, joking that “the plan hasn’t changed.” This playful reference only added to the humor of the whole situation, highlighting how sometimes a single character’s reveal can completely shift the plans of even the most dedicated players.
