The best memes from the Genshin Impact Kaveh hack of 2023

Over the weekend, news of a malicious Genshin Impact hack began circulating around social media. Through use of third-party plugins, bad actors could abuse a Kaveh ability in Genshin Impact t✨o explode Dendro Core💞s and delete any interactable entity in the overworld. The situation is now resolved, with the developer HoYoverse making a statement that the issues have been fixed and perpetrators have been banned.

Before the official statement though, there was a period of confusion and uncertainty among playersꦬ. Some panicked. Others responded with memes. Here’s some of the best creative content that was produced during the ordeal.

Deleting Paimon

Joking about using Kaveh to delete Genshin Impact mascot character Paimon was a recurring theme in the community. Paimon is somewhat of a pꦏolarizing character due to her high-pitched voice and tendency to speak for the Traveler. Although she is beloved by many, there ꧂are some (like ) who would rather see her gone.

Can anyone introduce their kaveh to my paimon asking for a frien⛄d

had a more somber interpretation with an 11-p♊age comic where Kaveh is jaile🎀d for his actions. I wasn’t expecting to take an emotional hit from a comic referencing a video game hack.

Thankfully, the hack is now fixed and it’s safe to play with Kaveh in co-op. It’s good to see the creative, humorous side of the community during times like these.
