The Phase I banners for Genshin Impact 4.0 have been released, and many players have spent their Primogems summoning Yelan. This Hydro Bow character is extremely flexible when it comes to team compositions.
Yelan is a 5-star playable character with excellent off-field Hydro application and is often compared with the 4-star Xingqiu. As a burst DPS, Yelan can fit in with any team that utilizes Xingqiu and can replace him as an alternative. There are multiple strong teams to choose from and it can be pretty confusing to distinguish which Yelan teams perform the best.
Hence, the following article will showcase the top 5 teams for Yelan in Genshin Impact.
Top 5 team compositions for Yelan in Genshin Impact
Based on several Genshin Impact Theorycrafters and content creators, Yelan excels the most in the following team compositions:
5) Permafreeze Teams (Ayaka + Diona + Kazuha or Venti)
Permafreeze teams continue to be a part of the meta in Genshin Impact. It is important to have a good off-field Hydro character like Yelan in this team composition to enable Hydro to apply a "frozen" reaction with Ayaka, or any other Cryo DPS character.
Players who do not have Ayaka or Kazuha can use any other Cryo DPS as an alternative, and any other Anemo crowd-control character, such as Venti or Sucrose.
4) Electro-Charged (Kokomi + Fischl + Kazuha)
Electro-charged teams are also great for Yelan, who can apply for wet status on enemies very quickly. Pair her with Kokomi, Fischl, and Kazuha and get an excellent balanced team.
Excluding Yelan, all other characters in this electro-charged team are flexible as well. Players who do not have a Kokomi, Fischl, or Kazuha can also use Barbara, Raiden, Venti, and Sucrose as alternatives.
3) Vaporize (Hu Tao + Xingqiu + Xiangling)
The Yelan team composition focuses on extremely high damage through Vaporize reactions. Yelan has high ER requirements in constellation zero, so the team has Xingqiu to help with that and also for Hydro application.
Although the team will destroy any enemy in the overworld, it will struggle in the Spiral Abyss without any shielder or healer. Xingqiu's Elemental Skill can absorb some damage from enemies which helps. Despite that, it will still be extremely difficult to clear three chambers even if players have out-of-the-world dodging skills.
2) Yelan National (Xiangling + Xingqiu + Bennett)
Yelan is also flexible enough to be used with the national team with Xiangling, Xingqiu, and Bennett. The double Hydro combination makes sure both characters have enough energy particles to have Elemental Burst at demand.
While Xingqiu and Xiangling will trigger vaporized reactions, Yelan can stay on the field to activate her passive talents to deal additional damage to her normal attacks and Elemental Burst.
1) Vaporize Variation (Yoimiya + Yunjin + Bennett)
This variation of the Vaporized team is extremely powerful with the following characters:
- Yoimiya (Main DPS)
- Yunjin (Normal ATK buffer)
- Bennett (Healer and Buffer)
With no crowd control or AoE damage dealers, this team can struggle a little with multiple enemies, but the high amount of damage the team can exert makes up for it. This team is effective against single-target monsters and is Spiral Abyss-friendly.
