Genshin Impact recently conducted the 2.3 update preview livestream, and, as expected, it contained several surprising announcements. From new Geo characters such as Itto and Gorou to the return of Albedo and Eula, players can expect a lot from the upcoming patch.Interestingly, one of the biggest highlights of the livestream was the Cryo vision of Albedo. It is well known that the Alchemist holds a Geo vision, and fans were perplexed to see him perform a Cryo attack against Eula and Bennett in the trailer.Is the Cryo Albedo being controlled in Genshin Impact?Fans have come up with several theories that explain the character using a Cryo vision. The most popular theory claims that the Albedo seen in the trailer is not real but an impostor.Apparently, the original Albedo, who has a Geo vision, is right-handed. On the flip side, the Cryo Albedo in the Genshin Impact version 2.3 trailer used his left hand to perform Elemental Skills and Burst.val 🍧 slow@val_kyunObservation:Cryo Albedo uses his left hand, while Geo Albedo uses his right hand12:00 PM · Nov 13, 2021256894093Observation:Cryo Albedo uses his left hand, while Geo Albedo uses his right hand https://t.co/4A6PTmDBumAccordingly, many players believe that Albedo is being controlled by the enemy Cryo Whopperflower boss that was leaked recently.hourly kaebedo ❄️🌻@hourlykaebedoif albedo really started attacking his friends cause of some alchemy notes i’m going to laugh so hard that man is so dramatic9:55 AM · Nov 12, 2021882170if albedo really started attacking his friends cause of some alchemy notes i’m going to laugh so hard that man is so dramaticFreya Lilioth@frey_lioAlbedo geo burst (right hand) vs Albedo "cryo" burst (left hand)#GenshinImpact #Albedo10:27 AM · Nov 12, 20211713379Albedo geo burst (right hand) vs Albedo "cryo" burst (left hand)#GenshinImpact #Albedo https://t.co/YQ0HxQSCq4Atsu@AsianGuyStreamYou thought Albedo used cryo?Wrong.He is clearly summoning La Signora here so she can be a playable character in the future 😃9:13 AM · Nov 12, 20214901328You thought Albedo used cryo?Wrong.He is clearly summoning La Signora here so she can be a playable character in the future 😃 https://t.co/cZrrL8JatWtuonto@Tuont0wait cryo albedo9:01 AM · Nov 12, 202115181758wait cryo albedocecilʕ •ᴥ•ʔ@redburnygirIal... bedo????? is... albedo actually using cryo now?????6:55 AM · Nov 12, 2021al... bedo????? is... albedo actually using cryo now????? https://t.co/1SfLig0cYYK4ZUHA@k4zuhayeetALBEDO CONTROLLED CRYO WITH GEO?!#GenshinImpact #Albedo6:23 AM · Nov 12, 202158380ALBEDO CONTROLLED CRYO WITH GEO?!#GenshinImpact #Albedo https://t.co/VmHoEGKx1sKat🦚🦉@darknightwine_SOMETHING FELT SO FAMILIAR ABOUT CRYO ALBEDO3:08 AM · Nov 13, 20216914SOMETHING FELT SO FAMILIAR ABOUT CRYO ALBEDO https://t.co/Q1vgFWQZV7𝕽𝖎𝖆 🔶🔸💞@RiAsterismok do you remember that giant Cryo whopperflower boss we saw in leaks?remember how whopperflowers can transform to pretend to be other plants?Q.E.D. the evil albedo who used Cyro power was the giant Cryo whopperflower boss in disguise.7:26 AM · Nov 12, 202124248ok do you remember that giant Cryo whopperflower boss we saw in leaks?remember how whopperflowers can transform to pretend to be other plants?Q.E.D. the evil albedo who used Cyro power was the giant Cryo whopperflower boss in disguise.Kineli #GenshinImpact@Genshin_KineliOkay but what if it's not Albedo? (a theory born from the discussion)It seems highly suspicious that he uses cryo thereWhat if it's actually the future boss that was announced?

He further added that Cryo and Geo, in contrast, are much more suitable elements.jae exams week@noelfans69@M00Nkai7:00 AM · Nov 12, 2021110848@M00Nkai https://t.co/nbztNiIUVxSurprisingly, some fans are assuming that Kaeya has somehow taken control of Albedo. He was always fascinated by the Geo element and is famous for the smirk that even Albedo had during the trailer.len@mafeemuu@hourlykaebedo adding to that, Kaeya is known to fool around and smile/smirk in battle and during golden apple archipelago he also admired and complimented albedo's geo formation. this seems oddly suspicious.12:31 PM · Nov 13, 20217@hourlykaebedo adding to that, Kaeya is known to fool around and smile/smirk in battle and during golden apple archipelago he also admired and complimented albedo's geo formation. this seems oddly suspicious.However, the most straightforward explanation regarding Albedo's Cryo vision is his understanding of Alchemy. Undoubtedly, he is one of the most intelligent characters in the Genshin Impact universe and could've discovered a way to hold two visions at once.All in all, players will have to wait until the release of the Shadows Amidst Snowstorms event in the Genshin Impact 2.3 update to learn more about the Cryo version of Albedo. The Dreams of Bloom event is live at the moment, and they can get a total of 420 Primogems from it.
