Best Team Compositions for Raiden Shogun in Genshin Impact
Image via: HoYoverse Raiden Shogun rises above every Genshin Impact character to be one of the most flexible and consequential 5-star characters. As an Electro polearm wielder, her hybrid role as both damage dealer and team battery cements her place as a cornerstone unit in a vast majority of meta teams. Considering the huge variety of characters and elemental reactions present in the game, constructing a cohesive team that incorporates Raiden can really help maximize her capabilities. The Raiden National Team: A Timeless Classic The 'Raiden National' performance team is arguably the most famous and widely recognized formation. Featuring Raiden Shogun, Xiangling, Bennett, and Xingqiu, this team focuses on spamming fast Elemental Bursts, backed by Raiden's unmatched energy recharge. Raiden's Elemental Burst supercharges the team's ability to cycle ults, while Xiangling and Xingqiu take care of off-field Pyro and Hydro damage. Bennett increases the team's damage and heals them when their health is low. Perfect for those who are looking to deepen their policy knowledge and hone their media skills to become more effective advocates. Players who want to have a complete, high-damage crew that performs well in single target and AoE fights. 7 BEST TEAMS For Raiden Shogun!! [ Genshin Impact ] Hypercarry Raiden Supporting the Archon's Wrath When constructing around Raiden as the focal point of all DPS potential, the 'Hypercarry' team composition is best. Usually made up of Raiden, Kujou Sara, Kazuha (or Sucrose) and Bennett, this comp centers around dumping huge nukes with her Elemental Burst. Kujou Sara and Bennett both provide attack buffs to Raiden, and Kazuha (or Sucrose) can help swirl Electro to trigger reactions and increase Elemental DMG with their passives. When done right, Raiden's burst is capable of eliminating waves of enemies in a single hit. Hyperbloom Teams: Reaction-Focused Raiden As such Raiden easily shines as a Sub DPS in Hyperbloom teams. Here, she fulfills a very supportive Electro role alongside the new Dendro and Hydro units, Nahida, Yelan or Alhaitham. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Zumbido e perda de audição?

This very special dual carry comp of Eula, Raiden, Rosaria, and Diona. In this team, Raiden quickly provides the energy to Eula's big energy demands, and in exchange, Eula focuses on physical DPS while Raiden dishes out AOE Electro burst damage. Cryo resonance from Diona and Rosaria increases crit rate and survivability. What makes Raiden Shogun really interesting is her flexibility. Whether you play into her DPS potential or prefer for her to help a team's energy economy, she is impactful in a multitude of comps. With her scaling off Energy Recharge and her talent to buff Elemental Burst DMG, she truly enhances whatever team she joins. In the end, Raiden's ideal team is contingent on your roster, your playstyle, and how you build her. One thing's for sure—if properly constructed and supported, Raiden Shogun can rule supreme in almost all areas of Teyvat.

Genshin Impact 5.7 Update, New Characters, Banners and More
Image via: HoYoverse As the worldwide Genshin Impact community counts down to Version 5.7, anticipations soar around the arrival of two fresh playable characters: Skirk and Dahlia. HoYoverse is yet to officially release either of these characters in a drip marketing manner, but some very reliable leaks have revealed players' expectations and in a sense, it will create another edition in team-building strategies. Skirk: From lore to meta defining DPS Long teased in Genshin lore as Childe's mysterious mentor from the Abyss, Skirk is stepping out of the shadows at last. Leaks say she will be a 5-star Cryo sword user, but what offers her originality is her unusual mechanics. Her kit, supposedly, ushers in a "Sevenfold Flash" mode, where her Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks are inflected by Cryo, and this cannot be overwritten. This mode expands her attack range to some measure and offers interruption resistance but demands a very particular resource called Serpent's Cunning in lieu of Energy to trigger her Elemental Burst. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The place-to-be for automation and robotics Undo Relevant topics from automation, AI and robotics Undo Valuable contacts with international exhibitors Undo Fresh input at the top-class supporting program Undo The leading trade fair for automation & robotics Undo This unique Burst will bomb her enemies with Cryo AOE slashes, which scale in strength with the extra Serpent's Cunning sacrificed, and what threatens to get even more amusing is her interaction with certain Area-effects on the map known as Phantom Rifts, generated by reactions such as Freeze or Superconductor. Skirk can suck these up to further augment the potency of her attacks, really tying her playstyle into Freeze comps, making her a prime contender to work with Cryo buffers. Dahlia: Hydro support with a hidden role? Entering the roster as a 4-star Hydro sword-user, Dahlia seems to require at least some kit polishing, according to early beta impressions. Leaked reports hint at his synergy designed for Skirk to provide a quick swap Hydro application for consistent triggering of Freeze. While the numbers do not presently impress, the tactical niche in new comps might develop, especially should HoYoverse opt to rebalance his scaling pre-launch. Genshin continues to be a controversial opponent of male characters with the coming of Dahlia. There has been only one male 5-star character since Version 5.1, and the community has been expressing growing frustration regarding the gender-imbalance statement from the character lineup. If this is really an underwhelming character, then the reception for him might indeed put some fresh fuel on the debate. Leaked Banners Banners of Version 5.7 shall feature Skirk alongside the rerun banner of Shenhe, Emilie in the words of the respected leaker HomDGCat. Even though the banner phases are not confirmed to date, it is speculated that Phase 1 shall feature Skirk and Shenhe, the two sharing the Cryo element and maybe some synergy. This will make for an attractive Freeze team package for players who want to build around Skirk right away. ✅UNEXPECTED!!? HOYOVERSE DID THIS TO 5.7 BANNERS TODAY (New Updates) - Genshin Impact Phase 2 may feature Emilie and Mavuika, even if they are somewhat niche in the current meta. It goes without saying, though, that rerun banners represent one of the few opportunities crucial for new players to make up for missing the release of these must-have units and that each phase could very well provide an important piece towards team optimization. What lies ahead in Version 5.8? Where Version 5.7 is mostly centered on character additions and team-building changes, Version 5.8 is expected to focus on exploration. The long-awaited regions of Mare Jivari are rumored to make an appearance, thus serving as Natlan's final expansion before the official launch of the region. Considering its tentative release on July 30, 2025, this update may lay down key narrative context and set up more dramatic shifts in power within the game. Furthermore, some occasional leaks are indicating the introduction of a Hydro support that synergizes well with Skirk in 5.8 possibly displacing characters like Yelan in some rotations. If this QA female 5-star turns out to be the strong contender developers have hinted at, it is going to add on more fuel into the ongoing debates around character design direction of the game. JUST IN! NEW & UPDATED BANNER LINEUP FROM 5.7 TO 6.0, All Leaked And Confirmed Characters-Genshin While the Genshin Impact 5.7 leaks seem detailed and credible, one has to keep in mind that nothing is actually confirmed until the official release by HoYoverse. Kits can be amended, banners may be rejigged, and characters could be bumped forward to later updates. Yet, while past precedence and the consistency of current leaks almost lean to performing the long-awaited debut of Skirk, the character may very well rewrite the dynamics of the Cryo team forever. Patch 5.7 seems to go beyond just being another update, it could well be the beginning of a whole new meta era.
