Cover-Credits:
Ayaka has been a long standing DPS in Genshin Impact. Released all the way back when Inazuma was first introduced, she still stands tall in the meta. With so many characters released since, she has many team options depending on what the player has. And with her return in the 4.3 Update, players are once again going to be adding Ayaka to their roster of characters. Whether you're an F2P player or have several 5-star characters, there are team options for every player. Let's take a look.
Ayaka's Best Teams in Genshin Impact
Freeze-Focused Teams
Ayaka + Shenhe + Kazuha + Kokomi
Role: Primary DPS (Ayaka), Cryo Support (Shenhe), Elemental Resistance Reduction (Kazuha), Hydro Support & Healing (Kokomi)
Strategy: Using two Cryo units to unlock Cryo Resonance and increase CRIT Rate against Cryo/frozen enemies. Ayaka deals massive damage while supported by Shenhe's Cryo DMG buff and Kokomi's healing.
Ayaka + Rosaria + Kazuha + Kokomi
Role: Primary DPS (Ayaka), Cryo Support (Rosaria), Elemental Resistance Reduction (Kazuha), Hydro Support & Healing (Kokomi)
Strategy: Like the previous setup but substituting Shenhe with Rosaria, capitalizing on her unique abilities to enhance CRIT Rate and energy replenishment for Ayaka.
Elemental Reaction-Oriented Teams
Ayaka + Diona + Sucrose + Xingqiu
Role: Primary DPS (Ayaka), Cryo Support & Shielding (Diona), Anemo Support (Sucrose), Hydro Support (Xingqiu)
Strategy: A F2P-friendly team with characters like Diona for shields, healing, and energy recharge, Xingqiu for Hydro support, and Sucrose for crowd control and Elemental Resistance shredding.
Ayaka + Ayato + Ganyu + Kokomi
Role: Primary DPS (Ayaka), Sub-DPS (Ayato & Ganyu), Hydro Support & Healing (Kokomi)
Strategy: This composition focuses on continuous crowd control and AoE Elemental Burst damage with Ayato and Ganyu synergizing well to freeze enemies while Kokomi offers healing and support.
Specialized Elemental Strategies
Ayaka + Ganyu + Shenhe + Kazuha
Role: Primary DPS (Ayaka), Sub-DPS (Ganyu), Cryo Support (Shenhe), Elemental Resistance Reduction (Kazuha)
Strategy: A mono-Cryo team with Anemo to maximize Cryo damage, with Kazuha reducing enemy Elemental Resistance and Shenhe bolstering both Ganyu and Ayaka for immense Cryo-based assaults.
These team compositions showcase Ayaka's potential in different playstyles. But they can be further tailored based on available characters and play preferences. The flexibility in team options makes Ayaka one of the nicer characters to have in Genshin Impact.
