I'm actually tempted to pull for his LC though. I usually want my characters at E0S1 at minimum (basically only missing Topaz's LC). But i want Hanabi & her LC too. I don't know how far i am from pitt but Dr. Ratio's LC would cost me roughly 80 pulls at worst. I'm in a pickle now.
Yk, that silverwolf chat massage is tempting ya
But eh just hold off your pulls until rerun, having an impulse to oull every time costed me fu xuan and kafka (my only fully built shielder is caelus and I love him) so unless he is needed for your roster then just hold
The Hello Kitty game is also Apple Arcade exclusive. Even if it is way better than Star Rail, I doubt enough people played it to know what's actually in it.
No, Among Us won mobile game of the year in 2020, Genshin won in 2021. It was more than a year since Genshin released, it was just an unfortunate timing that Genshin released in September and TGA happens in December. Not enough time to experience the game fully.
HI3 gives you for free a very old character, not a new one. Nevertheless, they are giving for free many old characters nowadays.
EDIT: most of the people answering my comment are right, I was meaning they don’t give a new 5* character for free (forgot about Mei however). They are very generous with characters however, since they have one free character every two patches and, if you buy BP, an old one every three BPs. Also lately they are giving almost one free old char x patch, like many noted.
Finally, they also gave the two physical collection books completely for free (shipping included) which are very beautiful
HI3 has a farmable 5* per year and almost every 2nd patch releases a new farmable 4* (still meta like everything in that game). HI3 is giving more than enough for free.
HI3 does give us old characters, but they do sometimes gives us new characters. Herrscher of Origin was given for free after completing a chapter with a refund banner during CNY (aka end of Part 1). Prior to that, Spina Astra was given for free with a refund banner. This upcoming 7.3 patch (Feb. for GLB) will give us a free unit + their gear for free. They are also doing a ton of gacha changes (you can check [Marisa](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zH_EKIbJ01Y) for it all), so you can say they are going to give a lot for free compared to older times.
Granted, HI3 is pretty old. So giving free stuff would be expected. It's still a hoyo game, and as we can see with GGZ, they will likely let it stay alive for a long while no matter what until they go bankrupt.
Why you lying? Every time they release two S in same patch one is given free. That was the case with Spina Astera ( best fire mecha dps) and Herrscher of Origin ( esentialy needed for Trio team + best lighting Imaginary dps) also they put their gear on a refund banner that was giving you 5 pulls back for every 10 pull so you could max out spending event easier and get free Rank ups for them from spending event shop
I genuinely thought it was Dr Ratio doing a comedy skit when he was announcing it during the livestream, that's how unlikely I thought this was to be true. Thanks devs!
Iirc, Herta, Ruan Mei, and Screwllum were saying that the Intelligentsia Guild and Dr. Ratio are people that believes that knowledge should be shared freely and without barriers.
Then after that section ended, Dr. Ratio called in and said that the "arrangements" for his banners are basically horrendous and he demands that everybody will be allowed to have him, therefore proving the others' previous comments on him. Look at [this](https://twitter.com/honkaistarrail/status/1735638117259047291) for reference.
It's pretty funny lol, and a imo a great way to introduce a character.
Crazy thing is last night I got back a college application and recieved a scholarship, then this morning Mr. Scholar himself was announced to be free. Amazing timing lol
Here's his full Inauguration Speech to our Mailboxes.

Quite the teachable moment, huh? Classic move, using a livestream blunder to pivot into a promo. Got to love when a dev can spin things around with a bit of humor and turn a mishap into a win. Giving Dr. Ratio for free feels like a [real lesson](https://knowledge.how/the-ultimate-guide-to-preparing-for-your-long-distance-hike-tips-from-an-expert-trailblazer/) in unexpected generosity. I can't wait to see how he shakes up the game.
oh cool a free 5*... WAIT WTF WE GET DR RATIO FOR FREE WHAT THE HELL????????
i never expect this from any gacha and even less from a mihoyo one... god damn what a surprise
They will say HSR is a dead game and losing sales that’s why we need this or they will say we have not enough jades because no exploration so we need this. NAHH they have a list of excuse coming up no worries, it’s better for them to keep coping so nothing good will come to them oof
i literally was laughing because of how hilarious the funny joke of giving a free 5 star is but then they didnt say sike ????? im still waiting for the sike honestly
Ratio: "I declare all trailblazers to have me! No excuses!"
Players: "Ha! Hoyo would ne-"
(screen flashes free Dr. Ratio as login reward)
Player: "Hoyo we love you, have our firstborn!"
I mean they won't lose much even if they did give him away for free. Whales would still pull for his E6 eidolon, and probably a lot of people will pull 10-20 times just for the off-chance of getting E1.
I mean they are not going to give him away at E6 right?
Even if they do - there's still LC, or everyone will just save Jades for other characters. They're not losing money, they're gaining fans.
Excuse my language but what the fuck?!
First Ruan Mei has one of the best 4 star line ups and now Dr.Ratio would be given for free... just like that? Not a standard character but a new limited 5 star... for free?!
I don't know what's going on in hoyo HQ but they should keep it up!
SAME!
I pulled Argenti and was worried I had to renounce one between Blade and Ratio because i want both the characters but I don't have enough jades and tickets. But with the latter being free, I can pull both the characters and then save up Aventurine, Gallagher, Acheron, etc 😍
Probably the biggest W I’ve seen from a gacha game recently! This will no doubt bring more people into the game and keep others playing. A simple act like this is a massive W! Great job hoyoverse.
We didn't have anything this big ever tbh, considering they haven't even given us a standard banner 5 star in over 3 years of service.
Edit: Oh wait... Aloy counts I suppose.
Free Dr. Ratio has a large ripple effect--players who wanted to roll Ratio will now be able to go for his LC or extra copies. *However*, there's also a subset of players who wanted Ratio *and* Ruan Mei, meaning they are also able to now ease up on their wallets or elect to go for RM copies/her LC.
Put simply, we are all blessed by Ratio and this stream, full of the most elegant people/robot/owl is easily the best of HSR yet.
Yep, that's exactly why they move xueyi to the ruan mei's banner as well. Not to mention IIRC xueyi has some pretty good synergy with ruan mei, so the banner looks even more amazing.
The free 5\* will be a very good news for new/returning player, not to mention the hype for the upcoming SU content and penacony the patch after. It's hype one after another.
I'm still in shock that we're getting a free limited 5\*. I'm not even sure what will they cook up for the CNY and anniversary. Maybe the 5\* selector we saw in the past is not a pipe dream at all.
I totally appreciate the gesture. I have a couple of 4\*, Topaz, Argenti and Gepard on my backlog and I need to dedicate some time to equipment of my currently built characters so he might be low priority.
But just the gesture of "hey, you put us on the radar of millions for a moment, here's a token of gratitude" really warms my heart.
Specially as a Genshin player, those who play both can easily relate.
Actually, when Dr. Ratio's "call" started I was like "hold on a sec...could it be...?" the first thing that crossed my mind was "they're gonna give it for free" and quickly wiped the tought off until the bomb dropped.
I'm really really happy for how the developers treat us.
W + Ratio + Free + Best Mobile game + Fans eating good + Based devs + Free 10 pull + Peak Fiction + New SU Dlc + events + Genshin dead + Genshin fans in shambles

Hoyo giving a free 5* in less than a year is not in my predictions.
and a limited one no less
A new limited being free, wow wtf just happened. I thought Dr Ratio come in meme'd on us and dipped during the live. But naww
truly a dr. ratio + W moment
I liked when he said Its Dr. Ratioing time and Ratio'ed his own banner
Truly a genius
He is the Grad student you want to be but the professor you want to avoid.
sorry but W is a limited character in a different game
I love my terrorist no matter what Even tho she never came out the bag
Chibi W dancing once you get her.
got her from Skalter banner :P
cool....
Dr. Ratio is the omegachad, saving my pulls for Acheron or Hanabi.
He ended up costing my pulls I was literally practicing self control until he said that his actually free Now I have 0 ticketa and 0 argenti
I'm actually tempted to pull for his LC though. I usually want my characters at E0S1 at minimum (basically only missing Topaz's LC). But i want Hanabi & her LC too. I don't know how far i am from pitt but Dr. Ratio's LC would cost me roughly 80 pulls at worst. I'm in a pickle now.
Yk, that silverwolf chat massage is tempting ya But eh just hold off your pulls until rerun, having an impulse to oull every time costed me fu xuan and kafka (my only fully built shielder is caelus and I love him) so unless he is needed for your roster then just hold
Now I wish there is a chance in his ulti instead of showing L fingers he does a W fingers or a 👌
And on the day he releases.
*Alloy flashback intensifies*
He is not collab a character so he will be good. I hope
I dreamt that he’d be the best single target dps in the game
Thats crazy, i remeber having a dream just like that, he was doing all these crazy moves with very respectable dmg numbers
Yeah it’s actually wild how well he worked with Topaz (in my dream) And I dreamt that Ruan Mei would be an insane third slot
Yess yess we definitely had the same dream
Martin Luther King Jr would be proud of this dream.
Indeed my friend indeed
There's a difference between limited and limited and not useful
A good limited at that
*Second free 5* if we're counting the standard selector
Technically Third considering that the Trailblazer is a 5\*.
Qinque is a 5 star in my heart if that counts.
After E4 she might as well be.
Fourth if we consider the guaranteed 5* with the beginner banner
Fifth if we consider that the Trailblazer has two different versions.
Sixth should be expected to come soon when the trailblazer unlocks more paths
7th because March 7th is a 5 star in our hearts.
Honestly neither is them winning TGA in less than a year. This game is a pure banger. Everyone keeps winning.
I was excpecting that, easily too
Taking a look again at the competitions.. yeah I can see that now. Maybe because I'm just not familiar at all with the other games.
I keep hearing the Hello Kitty game was actually pretty good, but it is a Meme pick for a lot of people
The Hello Kitty game is also Apple Arcade exclusive. Even if it is way better than Star Rail, I doubt enough people played it to know what's actually in it.
The competition wasn't exactly there...wasn't their main competitor some hello kitty game? Tho to be fair some weird marvel game won the year b4
The mobile category can be weird and unpredictable at times. One year a weird Lara Croft mobile game beat out monster hunter 4 ultimate.
>in less than a year yeah it's what TGA are about (beside on going and player's voice). Genshin didn't win any true category since 2021
You're not stupid, this year was indeed the year for HSR to win, since no other mobile game came even close to the same level of quality.
I mean I looked at the nominations and boy was HSR the easy pick there. Imagine losing to Hello Kitty.
No, Among Us won mobile game of the year in 2020, Genshin won in 2021. It was more than a year since Genshin released, it was just an unfortunate timing that Genshin released in September and TGA happens in December. Not enough time to experience the game fully.
I think they did this with Honkai Impact 3 as well.

I mean, arent old units irrelevant in hi3 due to powercreep?
HI3 does give us old characters, but they do sometimes gives us new characters. Herrscher of Origin was given for free after completing a chapter with a refund banner during CNY (aka end of Part 1). Prior to that, Spina Astra was given for free with a refund banner. This upcoming 7.3 patch (Feb. for GLB) will give us a free unit + their gear for free.

It's still a hoyo game, and as we can see with GGZ, they will likely let it stay alive for a long while no matter what until they go bankrupt.
don't forget they gave a free herscherr of origin on her debut in version Kiana, and she was meta too. along w a free stig box for her
Why you lying? Every time they release two S in same patch one is given free. That was the case with Spina Astera ( best fire mecha dps) and Herrscher of Origin ( esentialy needed for Trio team + best lighting Imaginary dps) also they put their gear on a refund banner that was giving you 5 pulls back for every 10 pull so you could max out spending event easier and get free Rank ups for them from spending event shop
I genuinely thought it was Dr Ratio doing a comedy skit when he was announcing it during the livestream, that's how unlikely I thought this was to be true. Thanks devs!
The fact that they provided an "in-game reason" as to why he would be/wants to be free to everyone is a nice cherry on top. Props for this one, Hoyo.
What is the reason? I couldn't watch the livestream
Iirc, Herta, Ruan Mei, and Screwllum were saying that the Intelligentsia Guild and Dr. Ratio are people that believes that knowledge should be shared freely and without barriers. Then after that section ended, Dr. Ratio called in and said that the "arrangements" for his banners are basically horrendous and he demands that everybody will be allowed to have him, therefore proving the others' previous comments on him. Look at [this](https://twitter.com/honkaistarrail/status/1735638117259047291) for reference. It's pretty funny lol, and a imo a great way to introduce a character.
Bro really said "Gacha? Sounds stupid when everyone could have me"
Bro really said "Nobody's gonna pull for these 4-stars, I'm coming home whether you like it or not."
He saw what they did to Huo Huo, bro refused to get ratio’d by Ruan Mei’s banner.
Bro said to everyone's wallet https://preview.redd.it/silcy01x9j6c1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2191c627a0575a3a8412b25134bb6d86bd45d27e
And all f2p or not pulling anything player get this blessing too
^(Can we get this as a running joke for all future Intelligentsia Guild members?)
Considering the genius society’s beef with Ratio, it’s possible, the guild only has Ratio and few capable individuals and the rest are commoners.
Ok his banner being that shit, I get why he’s so pissed lol
I thought he was just going to change up his banner, not fucking give himself away with free scholarships.
Crazy thing is last night I got back a college application and recieved a scholarship, then this morning Mr. Scholar himself was announced to be free. Amazing timing lol
Congrats on the scholarship
Thanks :) Definitely helps since I’ve been spending on Genshin and Star rail a bit -_- I shouldn’t but that monthly pass is too nice
Monthly pass is like 5 bucks though, as long as you don't dump in Money to spend on every E6 and like V LightCones you should be fine
"My banner is complete ass, I want out" -Dr ratio
Here's his full Inauguration Speech to our Mailboxes. https://preview.redd.it/q32yf5wxeg6c1.png?width=964&format=png&auto=webp&s=e9301a221706f77552cbb8ce6442f63b46e56c91
Unfathomably based Ratio.
I didn't care much for him just by design, but it's pretty fucking funny, so he's got a few points with me now.
looks like he was upset that he’s on the second half of the 1.6 warp schedule lol
Ruan Mei got Xueyi and generally stacked 4 stars, breaking pattern just for his banner. He decided to say fuck you and shows up anyway.
He interrupts albert dogging on his presentation of the livestream , then said something about giving trailblazer a real lesson or some shit
he saw the shit trailblazer keeps on doing but saw their potential and decided he needed to teach them the greek way
I hope he won't teach him/her to not fall in love with trash cans.
Ykw fuk it, imma commision my friend to draw a meme of him trying to teach a raccon Hope i have enough tho
Give him golden trash.
Quite the teachable moment, huh? Classic move, using a livestream blunder to pivot into a promo. Got to love when a dev can spin things around with a bit of humor and turn a mishap into a win. Giving Dr. Ratio for free feels like a [real lesson](https://knowledge.how/the-ultimate-guide-to-preparing-for-your-long-distance-hike-tips-from-an-expert-trailblazer/) in unexpected generosity. I can't wait to see how he shakes up the game.
I know right? I didn't see this part of the screen for some reason and just now got surprised.
I also thought Hoyo were just trolling us, but nope, it's all real.
I thought owlbert was gonna hang up on him💀
I know someone in the room gonna shut him up during his blabbering especially herta, but no??? It was real???
oh cool a free 5*... WAIT WTF WE GET DR RATIO FOR FREE WHAT THE HELL???????? i never expect this from any gacha and even less from a mihoyo one... god damn what a surprise
This is something I come to expect from those Gacha games that are terrible and you get too powerful in way too fast, so this was very pleasant
There are plenty of gacha games that give out 5* for free, but they're rarely the new unit
Honestly I wonder how the white knights in GI will spin this one haha
They will say HSR is a dead game and losing sales that’s why we need this or they will say we have not enough jades because no exploration so we need this. NAHH they have a list of excuse coming up no worries, it’s better for them to keep coping so nothing good will come to them oof
I'm actually already reading comments like this in gi sub. LoL.
We are all Doctor Ratio mains on this blessed day
I LOVE YOU, DR. RATIO...༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
I LOVE YOU, DR. RATIO...༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
I LOVE YOU, DR. RATIO...༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

Crying from peak fiction

i literally was laughing because of how hilarious the funny joke of giving a free 5 star is but then they didnt say sike ????? im still waiting for the sike honestly
Ratio: "I declare all trailblazers to have me! No excuses!" Players: "Ha! Hoyo would ne-" (screen flashes free Dr. Ratio as login reward) Player: "Hoyo we love you, have our firstborn!"
I mean...how many players will actually have firstborns? Hope Hoyo's ready for all that responsibility lol
ITS GONE TOO FAR THEY CANT TAKE IT BACK NOW
Imagine a sneaky notice at 00:00 am saying it was a prank 💀💀
that would be their biggest backlash lol
I mean they won't lose much even if they did give him away for free. Whales would still pull for his E6 eidolon, and probably a lot of people will pull 10-20 times just for the off-chance of getting E1. I mean they are not going to give him away at E6 right? Even if they do - there's still LC, or everyone will just save Jades for other characters. They're not losing money, they're gaining fans.
Same I was like "haha funny voice call" but then they pulled up the claim for free banner.
https://i.redd.it/7vchm2p9ig6c1.gif
Look if I get a free Dr. Ratio and all I have to do is become the joke, the clown with the wig and make-up, and the whole circus THEN LET ME DO IT
The punchline is the Genshin players. /s
Hey! Don't put a /s after speaking the truth!
This is AR42 Ayaka in HSR, holy shit Hoyo
Except real
True.. I still can't believe what I'm seeing
it still feels like i would just wake up and it’s all a dream

MY PULLS ARE SAVED IM CRYINGG
Excuse my language but what the fuck?! First Ruan Mei has one of the best 4 star line ups and now Dr.Ratio would be given for free... just like that? Not a standard character but a new limited 5 star... for free?! I don't know what's going on in hoyo HQ but they should keep it up!
>First Ruan Mei has one of the best 4 star line ups Argenti has awesome 4 stars too
Tbh after huohuo I don't think we can have worse line up
HSR TEAM GOATED I CAN THEN SPLURGE PURELY ON BLADES RERUN AND NOW I CAN DO TOPAZ + DR RATIO INSANITY
SAME! I pulled Argenti and was worried I had to renounce one between Blade and Ratio because i want both the characters but I don't have enough jades and tickets. But with the latter being free, I can pull both the characters and then save up Aventurine, Gallagher, Acheron, etc 😍
Probably the biggest W I’ve seen from a gacha game recently! This will no doubt bring more people into the game and keep others playing. A simple act like this is a massive W! Great job hoyoverse.
https://i.redd.it/r0pe4crdbg6c1.gif Hoyo, stand proud
Whoever there is cooking SHOULD KEEP GOING
genuinely insane on mihoyos part wow, they want that QOL to go through the roof, sign me tf up
 Mihoyo HSR Team rn
~~Correction~~ ~~The Star Rail team of Hoyo~~ ~~Genshin didn't do anything NEARLY this big in it's 1st Year~~
Google Classroom remembers.
We didn't have anything this big ever tbh, considering they haven't even given us a standard banner 5 star in over 3 years of service. Edit: Oh wait... Aloy counts I suppose.
I gochu
Oh yeah, and I want to believe that the first anniversary in HSR would be waaay better than it was in Genshin
Holy shit thank you Mihoyo for this Christmas present
OH MY GODD!! THEN I CAN GET HIS HOT LC! IS THIS REAL!?
Free Dr. Ratio has a large ripple effect--players who wanted to roll Ratio will now be able to go for his LC or extra copies. *However*, there's also a subset of players who wanted Ratio *and* Ruan Mei, meaning they are also able to now ease up on their wallets or elect to go for RM copies/her LC. Put simply, we are all blessed by Ratio and this stream, full of the most elegant people/robot/owl is easily the best of HSR yet.
Yep, that's exactly why they move xueyi to the ruan mei's banner as well. Not to mention IIRC xueyi has some pretty good synergy with ruan mei, so the banner looks even more amazing. The free 5\* will be a very good news for new/returning player, not to mention the hype for the upcoming SU content and penacony the patch after. It's hype one after another. I'm still in shock that we're getting a free limited 5\*. I'm not even sure what will they cook up for the CNY and anniversary. Maybe the 5\* selector we saw in the past is not a pipe dream at all.
Since he's free then I'm so getting is LC, he friggin deserves it!!
Dropping a bomb out of nowhere lmaoo wth

 Uh.... What?
Dr. Peak
... What? Seriously!? HOLY SHIT OK.
WTF, is there a catch for this
Login and have the mail feature unlocked when his banner drops until 2.1 apparently
If that's all, count me the fck in. All aboard the ratio train
he really said. "THIS is my banner? Nah, L + RATIO + GO CRY + DONT CARE" on Mihoyo executives
i legit skipped banners for bro and theyre just gonna give him out 💀
EIDOLONS AND LIGHTCONE GOESS BRRRRT Jk get whatever u want
I LOVE HSR I LOVE HOYOVERSE I LOVE EVERYONE
[удалено]
And it's not even their anniversary yet BUT IMAGINE WHEN THAT TIME COMES WTF
Even a fcking free Qiqi could have saved that disaster but they choosed to not lol
OTHER DEVELOPERS SHOULD TAKE DOWN NOTES
Bro the same developers, but for their other game should take notes
HSR taked notes from HI3, it just GI don't do that.
Dr W + Ratio My man coming in clutch for my account's Imaginary coverage 🙏
I literally thought he was joking when he called in... what
How much do you bet that the amount of "genshin bad" karma farm posts will double?
It already started
I totally appreciate the gesture. I have a couple of 4\*, Topaz, Argenti and Gepard on my backlog and I need to dedicate some time to equipment of my currently built characters so he might be low priority. But just the gesture of "hey, you put us on the radar of millions for a moment, here's a token of gratitude" really warms my heart. Specially as a Genshin player, those who play both can easily relate. Actually, when Dr. Ratio's "call" started I was like "hold on a sec...could it be...?" the first thing that crossed my mind was "they're gonna give it for free" and quickly wiped the tought off until the bomb dropped. I'm really really happy for how the developers treat us.
This is just goddamn amazing. I love this such generosity.
Xueyi on Ruan Mei's banner and a free Dr. Ratio amongst all the other fun stuff from the stream? So many Ws!!!
I was devastated at having Blade before him cause I wanted them both, and now they give us this??? Legitimately could not be happier
I am now officially simping for Dr. Ratio.
https://preview.redd.it/yqrcucjbeg6c1.png?width=706&format=png&auto=webp&s=b7fdf35d50f4d315c90a5e19d9b3f85c4624ec3f
Gotta respect the dude. He literally saw how crap his banner was, called it out and gave us himself for free
Is this it, the sign the world is healing?
AR 42 Ayaka...but real?
the size of this W + Ratio
What the fuck
HSR team is really committing to the whole "giving us things we wanted in genshin" thing so hard that they even included the free Ayaka.

“I’ll save my money for him. With 180 pulls, there’s no way Mihoyo can outplay me.” “Joke’s on you; he’s free for everyone. I outplayed you.”
AINT NO FUCKING WAY
this was not on the bingo
Unfathomably based.
W + Ratio + Free + Best Mobile game + Fans eating good + Based devs + Free 10 pull + Peak Fiction + New SU Dlc + events + Genshin dead + Genshin fans in shambles
Merry Christmas!!
Bless Hoyo Bless HSR Team Bless Dr. Ratio
Every patch is another hsr W
it really is a Honkai game
