Cryo Teams are About to Become MUCH Stronger – Genshin Impact



With Ganyu coming out soon, we can expect that new compositions will arise that allow Cryo to feature more of the cast in different combinations, since the only 2 strong ones currently are Chong-Kaeya and Diona + [Insert Cryo Carry]. I can’t wait to play around with her kit when she goes live.

  1. Just a reminder that I'm not able to talk about anything that Mihoyo hasn't officially released unless it's speculation. Unfortunately, while we know about Ayaka, I'm not allowed to discuss what leaks have disclosed about her kit. Same with Rosaria, who hasn't been confirmed as a playable character yet outside of leaks. 🙂

  2. I have qiqi and use her for pure healing and her cryo for that electro fatui, She dosen't do much cryo damage but it gets job done and her healing is too powerful

  3. I think ganyu is best paired with ayaka if she is going support. I have all the 4* except dione so I think I will go melt comps with xialing + skyward harp in stead of freze comps. I already have very good gladiator feather and flower, I only need to farm for set-2 cryo. Too bad this abyss is crowded with cryo enermies 🙁

  4. I agree that cryo will come up to be one of the primary damaging elements in the game alongside pyro and hydro (imho electro and anemo are more "supporting" elements at least for now due to the vape/melt being so strong), and I hope we see more characters coming up where it doesn't feel so awkward to run double cryo characters for the resonance. We don't know until things are out, but Ayaka is where all my hype if focused; if Rosaria is playable/is like a cryo lance Razor and Ayaka is more cryo focused like a Keqing, then those two don't really go that well together either, so I feel like I'm either gonna end up shoving two random cryos together for the synergy or just drop the synergy all together and just make up for it with artifacts/other characters (cough hu tao passive cough). I'm exciting to see where cryo goes, icy guys and gals have always been my favorite in fantasy combat games over fire characters.

  5. Barbara works amazingly for other Hydro characters because her aura actually buffs them at certain constellations… the only problem with that and the ONLY reason I don't use her is because gameplay becomes absolutely miserable against cryo enemies.

  6. I think the game is too new, every characters come change the meta. That why I believe right now people should just summon for their waifu and husbando instead of who is stronger.

  7. Speaking of Hydro, I'd love if their resonance was retuned or looked at again.

    With Geo getting a buff, Hydro is now definitively the worst resonance by a landslide (and it's arguable that it was the worst even before, since at least Ning and other characters benefit greatly from ATK up). Who here is, deadass, like "boy, healing sure is hard, I'll need to stack 2 Hydro users so that I can get a whopping 20% more!"

    Like, c'mon, MHY, give duo Hydro like a vaporize damage bonus or something.

  8. 3:15 While I agree that's how he turned out, his kit just screams also being a dps. Having both cryo and shatter is just too convenient and easy to fit, it makes so much sense, I just wish we had a shatter set. Actually, I wish the cryo set was just designed in such a way that it translates well to shatter builds too, since that's an avenue of Cryo, but ohh well.

    I could definitely see some crazy novel sets, imagine one that converts 100% of your characters phys dmg to 90% of the corresponding element, for example. Now nobody has to be split-dmg types, but ones that already weren't get to use other set bonuses and don't lose out on 10% of their basic attack dmg, sounds balanced to me and opens up a looooot of possibilities, if you ask me. Some characters really want their Witch's set or provide Venerer etc., I doubt this would actually be that great in general, but it's such a cool option.

    I really hope to see more artifact variety down the line, I feel like a lot more could be explored. Like for bow charged attacks, I don't like using them as a carry even if they get buffed, but it'd be cool if Wanderer's had an additional effect that HUGELY boosts one charged shot upon hitting an enemy, refreshed upon using ult. This could also be great for Amber and her spammable ult, her 2 makes her slightly more comfy for landing charged shots, would love to see her perform well with this, and she'd get to melt on the shot for 2x dmg.

    Then there's CD, a stat we can't really interact with aside from Anemo resonance and Chong C2/Bennett in his ult, maybe a cool support set?
    I could keep going, this is definitely an area I would LOVE the devs to put time and thought into.

  9. Ironically (because so many people consider geo the worst element) I feel like that element is clearly the one that synergizes the most. Albedo/Zhong/Ningguang and Noelle all have amazing ways to work together.

  10. As someone who went after Diona and really enjoys her support role and then later got Qiqi…it's really sad how much Qiqi just feels like she's in a pretty bad and awkward spot. Her cryo output is extremely underwhelming and in terms of a dedicated healing role she doesn't really do anything unique that makes her worth using over Jean or Bennet who can both do healing and more. Being a dedicated cryo healer that can't reliably break shields weak to cryo due to the low frequency of her cryo attacks feels REALLY bad.

    I'm really excited about Ganyu and definitely going to wish for her but I honestly have no idea how I'm going to use her or who I'm going to use her with… I might try a team with Klee + Ganyu + some combination of Bennet, Amber, Diona and idk maybe Chongyun. I feel like Ganyu + Amber actually have some interesting potential if you can use their bursts together to get a rain of melt reactions. Likewise if Ganyu can output enough consistent cryo status she could be pretty insane with Klee taking advantage of the cryo resonance for that extra 15% crit rate considering how heavily Klee's kit benefits from crit rate and that could likewise help keep Ganyu able to use her burst immediately on CD.

    Currently my problem is trying to figure out wtf Bow I'm going to use on Ganyu… considering I don't have any of the 5 star bows or the BP bow. I'll have to see if she wants the ER from Favonius or can actually make good use of Stringless depending on her burst's damage output. I could go for prototype crescent too…if I ever get a bow prototype. Might have to just settle with something sub-optimal and wait for 1.3 to potentially get the BP bow assuming it's the same set.

  11. This speculation but i believe how ganyu set up reminds me of a dps/ support dps
    Because none of her skills are strictly support they do nothing i mean can taunt and apply cryo so i dont think she is support honey impact updated their info and it says crit dmg as her upgrade stat if and one of her talent increases 2nd charged shot crit rate if im assuming correctly since they showed amos she gonna be shoot 2nd charged normals shoot second charged normals

    This sounds dps like but this can change but all i gotta say is if it is crit dmg she is dps and blizzard strayer is gonna sound really good

  12. Don't forget Rosaria, who is supposed to be 4* cryo dmg 👍
    If the preview stats they showed are realiable (a big "if"), she should end up with some pretty high base ATK for a 4*
