This is a Hyperbloom team featuring Cyno, who is currently featured on the limited-time character banners of version 4.2, as the main DPS. Cyno and Kuki Shinobu apply Electro upon the Dendro cores created by their teammates in order to trigger Hyperbloom.

Xingqiu and Nahida are preferred here to apply Hydro and Dendro, respectively, off-field to create Dendro cores. The former also provides damage reduction and resistance to interruption to Cyno.

A similar team composition as the previous one, this variant switches Cyno with Alhaitham as the main DPS. The latter is considered one of the strongest DPS units in the game and can deal high amounts of Dendro damage.

The other three units, including Kuki Shinobu, can apply their respective elements off-field in order to facilitate Hyperbloom.

This Hyperbloom variant replaces the main DPS with another capable sub-DPS Hydro unit called Yelan. Her Elemental Burst is extremely similar to Xingqiu's with higher multipliers. As such, both of them, alongside Nahida, can produce a lot of Dendro cores for Kuki Shinobu to explode via her Elecro application.
