That’s a very interesting use of Fight for Death, never occurred to me that you could use it like that

Yep!! As long as Clorinde has her Night Vigil skill state up, that 4hp heal for bond of life can be such useful extra damage >:)

Did your opponent play the POT OF GREED?!

u/woo_tao Oct 06 '25

u/SAOMD_fans Oct 05 '25

Is basically indestructible if she has the sword weapon. Very annoying

u/Particular_Web3215 Oct 07 '25

insane comeback.

questions for the deck, waht's the difference between azdaha and xilonen here? also can i look at your decklist

u/woo_tao Oct 07 '25

TLDR: The real difference in Azhdaha vs Xilonen is aggro aka how quickly you can use Clorinde, specifically Round 2 vs Round 3 respectively.

I've posted plenty of my showcases using Xilonen recently, but a big part of the strategy is setting up on Rounds 1 AND 2 then using all of Round 3 for Clorinde. This carried me through previous metas. but starting this patch I've noticed that waiting until Round 3 against meta decks like Lord of Eroded Primal Fire discard or Mizuki swirls ends way too poorly for me. That's why I brought back Azhdaha (which I used before Xilonen came out). Azhdaha is used more like a dice generator and staller, so it's easier to begin using Clorinde starting Round 2 and dealing damage earlier.

In the duel on this post, I actually wasn't able to use Xilonen AT ALL, so she was actually useless. I think I would have benefitted from Azhdaha here, but I can't say for sure. Clutches definitely rely on decent luck after all, but that's the thrill of the game :)

Here are my deck codes. Since the patch started I've been alternating between these two, so good luck if you try them out!

u/Particular_Web3215 Oct 07 '25

yeah i tride the azdaha variant recently and having to wait for his talent or clorinde meant gosoythoth or other aggro decks would eat clorinde alive. will defo try leopard mommy variant for more card draw. thx for ze advice.

Wtf was that💀 Its like seele came from the hsr universe into the genshin universe, go in a tcg game and took over ur clorinde and said "nah it's my turn!!" (I never play tcg I forget it exists so idk how u did that but it looked impressive)

u/woo_tao Oct 07 '25

u/SussyNerd Oct 09 '25

What in the f is even happening bro has infinite dice healing and insane damage for cheap

u/woo_tao Oct 09 '25

U don't wanna see me at my luckiest LMAO I was actually unlucky this game (xilonen not set up, only 2 golden troupe stacks, no paimon support dice). I'm glad I had enough stuff in my hand to secure the win in other ways

u/Polkadotsdesign Oct 25 '25

Something like this happened to me, but instead of chlorinde it was a neuvillete, i was not happy
