The official release info for the next patch is starting to come in. Today was the livestream, and in the next few days we should be getting PVs for Feixiao. (Will update this post as they show up.)
Currently relevant are the upcoming banners:
- First half is Feixiao + the trio of Kafka, Black Swan, Robin
- Second half is Lingsha + Topaz
Poor Ratio got skipped. Fingers crossed that he comes up together with Aventurine in 2.6 patch.
Kafka is the first character to have a 2nd rerun, skipping Seele, Jing Yuan, Luocha who came before her. Topaz is the fastest character to have a 2nd rerun... she just had her first rerun two patches ago. -_-
My current plans are to pull for Feixiao and Robin. Then Feixiao's LC. We'll see if I am lucky enough to get all of these with the pulls I have saved up. *fingers crossed*
Not much info in the short trailer we got. But it does seem like we've got Vidyadhara preceptors showing up as villains and taking credit for Hoolay's jailbreak. (BTW, huge difference between the CN and EN livestream, since I guess the EN VA for Feixiao couldn't make it, so her character was replaced by Guinaifen in the EN version.)
New map is a refurbished Xianzhou battleship now serving as the martial arts tournament set.
Ooh, fans pointed out that the villainous Preceptor Taoran is the same dude that talked to the journalist in the previous Dragons PV. Hm. He looks and sounds younger in the current trailer than in the PV (different VA too)...but if he had rebirthed in between, he shouldn't be using the same name still. Also, what's up with the horns?

Found another lore fragment mentioning Taoran. He definitely seems to be a contemporary of Dan Feng. Doesn't seem to be a proponent of the Preceptor council seizing power permanently from the High Elder position though. At least at the time.
