Cyno is currently one of the most anticipated characters in Genshin Impact. He is set for release along with the Sumeru update. On July 29, 2022, HoYoverse provided a first look into all the 5-star characters, including Cyno himself.

As it happens, leakers have done a bit more as they ended up revealing Cyno's Elemental Skill, Burst, as well as other abilities. Obviously, the leaks might turn out to be false, but since they are coming from multiple trusted sources, there are chances of these rumors being true.

Cyno is already known to be an Electro character who will wield a polearm. However, leaks suggest that his kit will be will be more of a combination between Xiao's E ability and Raiden Shogun's stance change during the ultimate.

Full details regarding Cyno's leaked abilities in Genshin Impact

Amongst all the characters that got revealed by Genshin Impact, Cyno was the one who got the most attention. His design, aesthetics, and style has appealed to a lot of people within the community.

Twitter was filled with artwork and appreciation for Cyno as soon as he was featured in HoYoverse's short Sumeru teaser. However, leakers did not want the hype to die down as just a day after the reveal. Thus, they ended up providing information regarding his kit and his gameplay.

Cyno will be an Electro polearm user within the game and is set to be a DPS character, as per the leaks. This is obviously quite welcome, since Dendro reacting directly with Electro makes Cyno even more valuable in the game.

Leaked kit and abilities of Cyno

The exact leaks regarding Cyno's kit and abilities have been listed below.

Elemental Skill

• Cooldown: 3 seconds

Elemental Burst

Based on the abilities, it is safe to say that if Cyno's damage numbers are big enough, then his Constellation 6 can be considered to be overpowered. The fact that it can extend the duration of Cyno's ultimate indefinitely is something that can lead to a meta-defining character in Genshin Impact.
