How long does this tcg hype going to last?
I think Catheryne.is powerful as you can change the character and attack or save anyone for combo
Am actually surprised Katheryne is not on the list
You forgot Jade Chamber Card, she deserve a position in top 10.
@@bennetttheunluckyguy6428 if they keep releasing card and updating the meta with nerf/buff. i think it gonna stay for awhile. even duel link and master duel are still going fine after all these years.
Noelle and Katherine are insane: they both basically let you finish your reactions in 2 turns instead of 3. I think it's a top spot
Also Katherine + Dawn is literally op combo: switch your character for free and attack right after
@@Kkk-kt4lx what card is dawn?
@@hanma6843 literally dawn winery
@@Kkk-kt4lx how long does it last?
@@satisfaction8242
If you take Katherine and Dawn winery - you can swap character for free once every ROUND.
If it's cards with Noelle, and other with Amber and Rosa - you only can do it once you use them
I honestly can't believe Katheryn didn't make the list at all. Swapping as a fast action is huge. That card has let me combo almost every match I've done
I used to play her, but 2 dice to be able to do that once a turn isn't necessary. Against fast-tuned decks you probably get 1 legitimite use, and there is the 0-cost card that lets you do that switch. And even that is circumstantial.
@@PeachtreeCorners I think it highly depends on the party you're running with. Chars like Ayaka and Kaeya are INSANE with Katheryne. Especially since Ayaka with her talent equipped reduces the Dices you need to swap her in by 1 making it a free fast action, with a buff giving you cryo infusion with +1 cryo dmg
@@PeachtreeCorners i used in aggravate/spread combo and using katheryne let me set in very easy for dmg
@@ZeroDennis Using Shenhe+Noelle in a deck is better for swap focused deck. Shenhe cards is so underrated when it literally let you pay your chara switch forward using leftover dice from last round on top of basically super fast mid action switch (The change happens after you attack which can protect your main DPS).
One of my deck is a very rapid superconduct switch with Keqing+Kaeya+Fischl and this deck can easily dish 10+ damage in first 2 turns like a joke.
I don't like some of the cards this guy is mentioning to be honest. Why would you use that card that lets you swap for free ONCE, when you can use the support card that lets you swap forever for free. Same goes for Katheryn like you mentioned, it's way superior to the Noelle card that let's you swap fast once.
Furthermore, destroying summons is great, but there are decks that don't have summons or don't play them, or you don't get the card when they play them, so that card is dead a lot of times. Same can be said about the Itto card, you need to cast it THE TURN your character dies. If you don't have it then, it's a dead card.
And why I agree that card drawing in nice in most games, it's not the case in Genius Invokation. I'm always sitting with cards in hand because I don't have dice to use them. I'm using 2 Strategize myself, but that's more than enough. Sometimes I have 7-8 cards and no dice to use them. And sacrificing them for the needed element is useful, but you still have the issue of limited dice.
And finally, I'm surprised he didn't mention equipment cards like weapons or artifacts. Some of them are really broken like Aquila Favonia healing you 2 times or the Adventure artifact that heals you 2 when you do a skill. And these work really well with the Blacksmith and the Alchemist cards that let you equip cards for free by just sitting there
There's this one Noelle card that costs 0 dies and allows for a fast switch. Absolutely broken lol
esp if you pair it with the rosaria card, you basically switch for no cost AT ALL
REAL. pairing it with rosaria 0 switch cost is deadly. i usually use it to apply cryo/hydro, and then switch to a pyro for melt/vape reactions
This! Really good in Freeze/Overload decks. Haha.
I'm having a blast using Xingqiu+Ayaka combo and oh boy everyone freezes haha
Yeh I thought it would be here
Yeah my Yoimiya+ Fischl team are busted because of that card
Mona and Bennett combo still works I saw a screenshot of them with Diluc dealing 42 points of damage. Also Parametric transformer is nuts
Yep it's really funny lool
Lol showcase in tcg
Always has been
katheryne is pretty good, switch without ending turn once every round and uses any 2 die
@@almightynoob1631 there's a card that does that at the cost of zero...
Man I'm so glad Keqing is good in here, she's been getting great treatment from Hoyo lately, from a skin last year to the buff with dendro and now she's also one of the characters in the TCG. First of my invitations went for her and I already built a deck around her, and for now it seems quite strong
I instantly decided to buy her character card since I still don't have her after playing for 2 years
she didnt get a skin last year
@@ndihateyou yeah, it was this year
@@ame_goblin saaame!!
Mona is pretty dang good in the tcg as well.
I would definitely put "The bestest travel companion" on that list, transforming 2 black into 2 omni easily save bad luck dice-rolls.
Easily one of the best cards in the game. The fact that its 2 black dice is so busted. This card can help you get your Burst up in the first round for characters that only cost 2 Energy
this and Jade Chamber. Unironically the best card, don't know why Jade Chamber isn't on the list
@@XXXEmpoleon True, that support card is so good
@dulina sandaru2 I was also shocked about send-off. It was literally the first card I put out of my deck because yes against NPC where you can look at their team before it works ofc but against real players you dont know if they even have a single summon or not...why would you deck such a conditional, possibly dead tech card? Jade Chamber is imo the best location card, better than Liyue Harbor Wharf or Favonius Library (although these are nice too). The best travel companion however I feel like is sometimes not needed because of Elemental tuning. If you have a good balance of card draw and dice manipulation alongside with direct combat effect cards, I often found myself not needing to just manipulate 2 dices, rather I'd need to create more (which is Paimons other card that he listed).
I'm surprised that this card along with Jade chamber and "Ningguang reroll" cards aren't even mentioned in the 'Top 10 cards' list.
I’m having a blast with the TCG. I hope they add more character cards in the future
They will
I hope they will and keep it balance, cuz i see yugioh as a power crept so bad
@@khaivankha7049 it will be easier to balance since the whole mode is full F2P. No money involved so no complaints if meta is shifted around.
I'll wait for zhongli card
@@boi53y same brother
I wasn’t sure if I would like the TCG, I messed around with Hearthstone in it’s early days and back in the late 90s played the Pokémon TCG, but I have to say, Genius Invocation has had me hooked. I logged in expecting to do a little bit and then go onto the Archon quest but uh…. Nope. Been playing card games pretty much exclusively.
lol same here. I have to postpone to play my archon quest interlude just because I played hours of Genshin TCG, it’s not even its complete form. Truly great new end game
this mode is really fun because you can try so many combination card, i just hope they keep updating this TCG, with adding more new card and creating new mode etc in future
@@JimRaynor2001 I like card games and think that this is the endgame I wanted. I dont like the abyss due to its frustrating and repetitive nature. This game is a breath of fresh air.
havent played the latest archon quest because I prefer playing genius invocation lol
As a Noelle main it's no brainer for me to build a deck around her. Had a really fun pvp game with Noelle solo carrying the rest of the game when I had a 1 vs 2 disadvantage.
[cries in main beidou]
I love that one card with noelle in the art. Basically quick switch.
Kaeya+signature card still carries too hard for a beginner
When i try her, I immediately notice her too op tbh lol. And i reallly not disappointed i main her too
My Noelle main friend's just decimated my team without using the other two characters in her deck 🥲
I think Jade Chamber is also amazing for teams with two same elements
I also thought it would be up there but still for me it is the strongest card
I thought this card would definitely be here. It feels like people are forgetting the power of controlling dice every round. This single card made sure that I could always damage/use a high cost card.
I think it's that good in general, even with e different elements.
@@Noirjk Having one at start gives huge advantage,having 2? That's god damn easy win,idk how that card what cost 1 energy not even on the list
Yeah, it's the strongest card for sure.
Top 10 (and more) cards in this video:
th-cam.com/video/q_T-LZ_FCNM/w-d-xo.html
0:21 Srategize/Kokomi card: Allows you to draw two cards
1:15 Resonance Cards: Gives unique buffs depending on the card
2:33 I haven't Lost Yet!/Itto card: If one of YOUR characters is defeated this round, creates an omni element dice and gives your active char 1 energy
3:32 Parametric Transformer: When anyone uses an elementa skill (skill or burst) this card gains 1 Qualitative Progress. When you get 3 of those bad boys, Three random elemental die are created
4:26 Iron Tongue Tian: Your active character will gain 1 energy if they don't have max energy, has 2 uses
4:54 or 9:03 Liu Su: The character you switch to gains 1 Energy if they don't have any energy
5:18 Paimon: Gives you a free 2 omni dice every round for 2 rounds but costs 3 of the same elemental die
6:00 Lotus Flower Crisp: Mitigates upto 3 dmg you would take on the next hit after using them, really op and prevents insta kills (good for using when the opponent has their burst ready)
6:39 Liben: Epic as always Liben got our backs once again, collects unused elemental dice (one of each elemental type)
Changing Shifts/Rosaria and Amber card: Use 1 less die when switching active characters
8:19 Liyue Harbour Wharf: Gives you two cards at the end of each turn for 2 turns in a row
8:28 Quick Knit: Grants one of your own summons an extra usage (turn)
8:44 Starsigns: Gives your active character 1 energy
9:17 Send Off/Hu Tao card: Nullifies the other player's summons
Other good cards imo:
Katheryn: Lets you switch active characters as a fast action (meaning it doesn't end your turn or pass it onto the opponent)
Leave it to Me!/Noelle card: Also lets you switch active characters as a fast action
When the Crane Returned/Shenhe card: Switched your next character to eb the active character when you use a skill
Damn.
I've been having a blast with the game. Oceanid is easily my favorite character card and pairing her with other skill summoners like Fischel or Xiangling has been a ton of fun. I can't wait until I can get Maguu Kenki and really start popping off.
And then someone goes...
LAMENT!
How to get monster card?
@@azrihalim1313 you have to fight cats
@@azrihalim1313 Level up and Prince will offer you challenges to get them.
Same!! I’ve built a few decks based on reactions and types from prior experience. I recently made one with Rhodeia, Ganyu and Fischl for a freeze comp/summoner comp, and it’s pretty interesting on it’s own!! With it, I built it around energy and racking up more Omni die so that it’s easier to play
What about the Noelle card? Not only that it's free it also allow you to switch character as a fast action move rather than combat action, making it a really powerful action card to proc reactions
fr, also the katherine passive (may cost 2 random rolls but it lasts till the end)
Yeah I like both of these too, especially if you've just set up a combo and your opponent can't just choose characters to avoid it if you can't quick swap.
liben is legit busted. i cant believe how well hoyo did with this card game. I really hope they continue to support it instead of letting it rot. i'm having so much fun trying out all the different combos.
Changing Shifts has a perfect synergy with Leave It To Me! cause you can essentially shift from your previous active character for free and be able to attack using your new character
And if you have kaeya burst, it gets insane!
The utility of having both Dawn Winery and Kathereyne, both of which are permanent, and there being no cards that can get rid of them is a sight to behold. You basically get to swap a character for no consequence once a turn without using up any cards or dice. It's more worth it than the 1-shots, even if the 1-shots are cantrips.
@@GreatChicken2 yes, but they take up 2 summon slots, essentially making you loose tempo. But i have to say, it works wonders against freeze teams! Definitely not a bad combo, but kind of situational imo
The Noelle and Katheryne cards are also amazing, letting you change your attacker and attack in the same turn, one of my favorites to elemental reaction combos
The TCG Meta is already here I see lol
INTERNATIONAL CARDS GO BRRR
fortunately🙏
Yeah, there's a deck template floating around now and it contains most of the cards that the video describes. Liben is definitely busted and Strategize is as useful as it is in other card games (funny how MTG had a version that draws 3 and was banned, then there was a version that draws 2 that, if I recall correctly, was restricted. Hand building is too powerful.)
The card that lets you switch after attacking is pretty good in a pinch too; let’s you get a swing in with a low health character and then put them back into cover.
Good, but nowhere near the top tier of cards.
Most decks prob won´t be running them once they get the money to buy extra copies of the better cards.
How tf is Noelle Shenhe and Katheryne not here ? So far in my genshin TCG experience tempo is king, being able to swap in and do stuff without passing the turn to your opponent is absolutely crucial. Those cards I mentioned allow you to do just that.
kat is great
Agree, Katheryne is busted. Especially if your doing elemental reaction such as freeze. Effectively making the other side lose a turn
katheryne is hands down the best card, if you get it first turn you're basically set up for a snowball
Yeah this video isn't a good list lol
Yall are really ahead of the game. I'm still here testing our diluc, kaeya and sucrose 💀
Same same 💀
Enjoying the TCG a lot. There’s so much info to take in and I actually can’t wait to build a deck and see the start of Content Creator Tournaments
I’m surprised that the Jade Chamber didn’t make the list. It automatically makes sure at least 2 dice are the same element as your active character and you can have up to two out.
Liyue Harbour Wharf, Jade Chamber and Katheryne are must have cards on my deck, personally
haven’t tried the first but god i love jade chamber and katheryne they’re lifesavers
I think the card that lets you switch without passing to your opponent is better than the one that makes it cheaper, attacking right after you switch sounds a lot better than switching and having your opponent hurt your buddy you brought in
As someone who played a lot of Gwent, I've really gotten into this mini game.
Yay!
Finally, been looking around for a good guide! Thanks a ton Brax
Hope this game mode becomes big enough to be its own game.
I am so used to having team comp guides for genshin that now when I don't have guides for TCG, I just feel lost lmao.
It's such a fun game mode.
Been running Spread Keqing too and it's quite potent.
I recommend for characters a team of xiangling keqing and fischl. The two summons will deal overload each time and do 5 damage every round for free. Keqing is just. there for op burst and electro resonance
Liben is really good. Glad to see that it wasn’t a mistake picking up both copies
I've only known Send Off for a few hours and she's already my favorite card in my deck. Xiao's costs a tone of energy, but if you have a bunch you don't need, his is pretty handy, too.
I may not use Keqing much anymore in the main game, but I'm glad I can use her in Genius Invokation TCG now! Fischl/Keqing/Collei is such a great character card set, at least to start with. I've only just beaten Mondstadt's challengers though, so I can't say much on its effectiveness past that point or against other players, but it's still pretty fun!
yeahh ive been using that too it’s so fun got me through everything currently available but i haven’t played against any other ppl yet either
There's no reason to use any 5 star except like 4 over 4 stars in the main game lmao
4 stars currently rule the meta
It's very interesting how some cards don't say anything at first glance but you then you can find some use. There's this card that switches character after you attack, which can be very clutch when you risk to be killed and you have invocations, but one more attack can kill the opponent. Kill, automatically switch, end round, you damage and apply an element and your new character can start the next round with a reaction.
Nolle and shene card also need to get honorable mention at least, I think
Who would've guessed Ayaka Freeze is ALSO busted in the TCG. I run a fast-switching near unkillable comp of Ayaka, Xingqiu, and Mona. Mona is just a good applicator all around, Xinqiu has a low-cost burst, and Ayaka procs his burst with her cryo normal. Forces opponents to do nothing but switch and they aren't able to play unless they brought a comp that either forces me to swap or has fast swapping for themselves.
wow, I cant believe Katherine/leave it to me not even in the list. the ability to nulify turn switch is absolutely strong. especially when you are setting up your elemental reaction.
I always knew a card game would be great for Genshin
It's also more immersive, now we know what people around mondstadt do in their spare time, they play some TCG!
Noelle + Ninguang are a really good pair, you can start with ninguang to set her wall and then switch to noelle, this allow you to easily build Noelle burst because it is really cheap (only 2 energy) allowing you to greatly increase you damage dealt an reducing the amount of dice needed to attack, put them with Rodheia and Lotus Flower Crisp and that deck will tank ANYTHING even a Bennet + Diluc deck
For reaction decks, Leave it to me! can be really powerful when combined with changing shifts. You can switch cards, then immediately attack.
This was really informative, thanks!
And a former hearthstone player and current slay the spire enjoyer I am sooo exited to dive into this further, one thing to always remember, draw and saving resources is op, im curious to see how the other reaction’s play and you only get to test melt and swirl in the tutorial
I can't believe you did your research so well to the point you even figured out how pot of greed works!
Crisp, clear and concise! Great guide and your voice sounds excellent ✨
really been enjoying ayaka xingqiu and kaeya. i play a lot of fast action cards to swap characters, activating kaeya and ayakas abilities.
You should try Chonyun, Xingqiu and Yoimiya
you can dish out some hefty damage with them
the card that have noel in the photo allow you to change your active character without ending your turn and it costs 0 dice it's so powerful and definitely must be in this list
Honestly, my fav card is Favonios Library. A free instant re-roll on dice and a second re-roll each turn has helped me get exactly what I needed so many times.
2:34 Itto support card "I haven't lost" has weakness though. While it seems great, especially in pvp, if your character died at the end of turn/round (because summon usually), you can't active that card. Great in general, but maybe you want to avoid to use it against opponent with summon oriented.
There's a card with Xiao on the it's face that cost 4 dice and destroys every summon, including ours. It's great against the Oceanid, but I haven't seen much use for it outside of that.
There's also the Chef Mao card, that after playing any Food event card it Creates 1 random Elemental Die. Could make for interesting plays using food cards
So what is the best builds for these cards? What is the required ER? Any BIS artifacts I need to farm?
ahh yes the birth of TCG beta, i love it. always bringing out the informative videos brax
Paimon and Ellin are probably the most cost effective cards.Paimon gives your 6 Omni dice in exchange for 3 and Ellin reduces the cost of skill by 1 dice which is really good for early game when you are trying to setup the cards while trying to get some element reaction set pieces
Eeeh. Ellin reduces skill cost on subsequent use. For Ellin to be useful you need to be in a situation where you have resources to use 2 skills in a row. Since skills typically cost 3 dice at baseline, it's 5 for 2 with Ellin, and having 5 dies of a same element (and of the element you actually want to use) early on without cards that affect your dice income is very unlikely. Alternatively you have normal attacks, but those aren't action efficient at baseline unless you equipment/Noelle burst. So in the end Ellin is actually hard to use early on. She's good when you have already set up some skill spam by forcing dice RNG with Jade Chamber or something, or increasing dice income via Liben/Paimon/Reso/Whatever.
Great video man! I guess it's a bit early, but looking forward to a character cards ranking
Thank you for this list. Like many card games, the idea is to maximize the amount of things/actions you can do in any given turn. If you're doing more things than your opponent, generally you're winning, unless what you're doing is ineffective.
Fun fact, if you take a drink every time the characters say, "Genious Invocation TCG" during the story quest, you won't remember what happened in the story quest. Also, you will somehow lose all your primogems but wake up to Wanderer being in your team.
thanks for this, i really dont know what cards to prioritize. im getting the draw 2 cards first!
I love changing shifts + leave it to me combo...
also when the crane returned is fun for quick reactions.
In general I like cards that produce dice and cards that have 0 cost.
Hope that they'll keep adding cards every other patch.
oh, and - I don't know whether I just didn't pay attention, or whether Timmie was forgotten again...
As a TCG Yu Gi Oh player I saw the Kokomi pot of greed card and immediately knew this thing is either going to get banned or be a staple. So yeah, bought it immediately from the cat.
It's fine but it realy can't be compared
Great tips thank you!
You should have also mentioned "Leave it to me!". I like it much better than "Changing Shifts" because you can use it at the start of a round to cast a skill and then follow it up with another skill for a reaction - increased damage. Pair it up with "Changing Shifts" and you can switch the active character instantly at no cost
I use kaeya's burst along with the winery and Katherine card, it basically allows you to spam swap damage for free, I also pair it with other cards to build up energy quickly so you can practically spam it once per round
tbh I had low expectation going in but I’m totally hooked now
Im actually having a ton of fun with it. I was really surprised how fun it is.
This new mini game is awesome! As a Magic the Gathering player, I've been having a ton of fun with this so far.
Honestly surprised Jade Chamber isn't even an honorable mention here. I don't know if this is different in other card games, but in Yu-Gi-Oh!, resource management is key. The ability to reduce the random factor is what sets the "broken meta" decks apart from the rogue or casual decks in that game.
For that same reason, I would also keep an eye on the NRE card as this game (hopefully) develops over time. Even as it is, I think it has a lot of potential (haven't been able to test it, because I don't have it). It draws a food card as soon as you play it, as well as when you play a food card once per round, and thinning the deck makes you more likely to get the cards you want when you draw. As it is, it allows you to have easier access to healing options and food buffs like Lotus Flower Crisp, Jueyun Guoba, and Nothern Smoked Chicken, and thins your deck out. That's already a lot of potential value out of just one card that cost only 2 black dice to activate, but the moment better food cards are released, this has the potential to be broken.
A card that I don't see mentioned that I think is pretty good, is Shenhe's Card, it allows you to set up reactions or force the opponent to switch, and with Keqing specifically you can use Keqing's card to use her as the active character again.
Also, it allows you to safely attack with a low hp unit.
i personally really like ganyu, ayaka and yoimiya combo.
Brax I can't believe you were hesitant to make this video! Some of us, myself included, knew nothing about TCG. And I was a big fan and player of Yu Gi Oh.
The oceanid summon really did me in today's match glad I can finally found a counter for it
Thanks! Great vids
omg thank you for explaing the itto card! when i played against the npcs i thought it was useless because it was so easy to defeat them without any of my characters dying. but collei was kicking my ass and i had to start over twice.
that’s what i thought too until some guy w the fatui in liyue killed 2 of my chars at once ☠️ still won but damn
So, I'm still a beginner, but as a beginner I have some other card suggestions for newer players since some of the cards in the list are a bit more complex to use than others imo, and, although the cards in the vid are probs better than the ones I'll suggest when used properly, you'll usually get more use out of others overall as a beginner. Once you've played enough you can probably make your own strategies that may use the cards in the vid more, also I think some of the things mentioned in the video were said to be mainly for going against other players, but I'm gonna be focusing solely on NPC battles since they should probably be you're priority if you're also new to TCG.
Instead of Changing shifts (reduces cost of switching by 1) I'd suggest Leave It to Me (lets you switch without immediately ending your turn), although overall switching isn't great unless you know what you're doing, being able to switch and still attack afterwards is much more useful then reducing the cost. This may not be true with more experienced gameplay or against other players, but it certainly is for new players where you quite often have spare energy, meaning Changing shifts isn't as good, but may have a burst available on another character that can kill the active enemy.
Resonance only works if you have 2 or more of the same type of character in your deck, and since you can only have 3 characters I'd suggest not bothering with resonance and have 3 different elements, this is because when you're new you have so many NPC's to duel and, although for the most part cards are very similar per region, having the diversity will make it less likely for you to go against someone you can't defeat just because of your characters, which would then mean you'd have to make a new deck with different characters specifically to counter that 1 enemy, which is a pain, and you'll have to do it multiple times. E.g abyss mage shields ONLY take damage when you cause a reaction with them, otherwise they're basically invincible. Also you will not actually be sacrificing any damage output by not using resonance because you can add other cards which are better suited to your build.
Food can actually be incredibly useful when you don't have a full understanding of all the cards in the game, remember you can sometimes view what moves your opponent will play, which will show you the damage, food can help you survive a hit you wouldn't have before. Although in the short term helping one of your characters survive 1 more turn doesn't seem great, it can help you deal the damage you need to then destroy one of their cards, it also allows you to use your burst if you have it instead of dying because when you die all that energy disappears. Don't bother with the normal attack reduction food though, it's pointless, lotus flower crisp and the healing ones are more beneficial.
Timmie is great, he costs nothing and in 3 turns you'll get a free omni dice. Although this isn't as good as some of them, being free and giving an omni dice is still pretty good.
The Bestest Travel Companion is also really good, you can choose any 2 dice and make them omni, even though it says the cost is 2 of any, it immediately refunds them both as omni, so you basically get to switch 2 of your bad ones for omni for free.
As I mentioned, swapping characters isn't usually the best idea unless you have some sort of plan, so I wouldn't suggest Liu Su (if you SWITCH to a character with NO energy, they gain 1 energy, lasts 2 turns), instead I'd suggest Iron Tongue Tian (A character who does not have MAX energy gains 1 energy, Active character is prioritised), the reason I think he's better overall is because one of your characters will always gain energy from it, and it prioritises active which is also really good, whereas Liu Su works far less often, again, with an experienced player they are both probably as good as each other, but Iron Tongue Tian can work for more of your basic strategies, unlike Liu Su who will only help if you have a plan on everyone's energy and you plan to switch with someone who doesn't have energy, and, again, switching is usually not the best unless you have a plan.
Wagner isn't a must, but I would suggest him, along with a few weapons for your characters, weapons can actually do quite a lot, and with wagner you can equip a weapon for free, even one with a cost of 3, by the start of your next turn, also if you have more than 1 of the same weapon type then you have more options.
Favonius Cathedral heals your active character for 2 hp for the cost of 2 dice of the same element, lasts for 2 turns. This almost always comes in handy unless you are going to die before the end of the phase, but even then if they do die then if the character you are forced to switch to has taken damage they also get a heal, also doesn't help if the enemy has either boosted burst damage, or multiple characters with bursts available.
Jade Chamber is nice, at the start of the round, when you roll, at least 2 of your dice will be of the element of your active character. Sure, you can sacrifice some of your cards to change the element anyway, but you should really have a deck with only cards that can be useful in relatively common scenarios, so Jade Chamber allows you to save some important cards for later, also it's a location so it has infinite duration.
This one's probably self-explanatory, but character-specific cards (the ones that, when that character is active, uses your skill or burst + gives a small bonus effect) can sometimes be really good to have on you. Some of them cost more than a burst but give a small buff of some sort, but they won't always be helpful so it really depends on what characters you are using.
To summarise, all the previous suggestions I gave are only from a beginner's POV, I am not saying these cards are the best in the game, or that I think I know more, but when you're new strategy can be pretty hard, I've certainly found that, and these cards are ones that have helped me in far more situations overall against NPC's.
I've been running an all summons deck rn and its been a blast
I prefer the 2-cost Paimon over the 3-cost one, even if you do get more Dice out of the 3-cost one. The 2-cost is basically a cantrip converter, and works instantly, where you have to wait for the 3-cost ones. If you're running the likes of the Parametric Transformer and Liben already, you probably don't need that much dice generation, you just need conversion.
Been playing the genshin tcg all day. Its that addicting I didn't start the scaramouche story quest yet lol I have half of these cards on the list
Fav library is absolutely op. Being able to reroll dice an additional time every turn is broken. Especially since you can use two at a time
At first, I wasn't enjoying the card "send off" at all, but after seeing this explanation it made a lot more sense, so thanks for the video!!
Another good card I like to use is Shenhe card. (I didn't pay attention how it's called). Basically it automatically switches your active character to the next in line after you attack the opponent. It costs only 1 dice any really useful for elemental reactions. Especially when Noelle or Katherine cards haven't show up yet or been already used
Freeze team with Ayaka, XQ and Kaeya is kinda decent. Kinda hard to setup but can easily wipe if done right
The Best Travel Companion also deserves a mention in my opinion. Dice fixing can be huge in keys spots and turning junk dice into Omni allows for the most flexibility. It costs you a card, but having the option to use a skill or burst rather than a normal attack is a huge boon.
Really surprise no mention of jade chamber is so nice to keep that damage rolling and cards flowing
Thank u so much brax. Now i can improve my tcg playing and will got lesser chance of losing 👍🏻
I haven’t lost yet, is really bad if you already ended your turn or most of the time that will happen because of summons attacking and you ended your turn, it’s really no use if the opponent is a summon based deck.
Can't wait to build a Mill deck 😩🙏🏻 Everyone loves fighting my MTG version
I'm coming back to share 3 other food cards that can be helpful. The 1st is good if you're not running 2 characters of the same type: it costs nothing and reduces a character's next normal attack by one unaligned dice-or you can use it for tunning. Another is the pizza: heals 1 on use and at the end of the next 2 rounds. The last is Adeptis (spel?) Temptation. Yes, it costs 2 black die, but increases burst damg. by 2.
Pot of greed,brings back the memories of that one meme with the black dude
I think katherine is good as hell as well as noelle as they can help you switch as a quick switch and you can do elemental reaction without worrying the enemy changing their active or killing your character
I love this game mode and I would like to watch a character tier list
I found a lot of success with "bestest travelling companion" it turns any 2 dice into omni which is the among the best ways to start off a play in the game imo.
good video, the only one i have question about is the itto event card......since my character never die bc i usually freeze opponents monster......having that card in my deck seems useless.....rest of the list is awesome!
Can you do top 10 character/boss card next?
No mention of the Favonius Library
1 cost reroll + better rolls in the future tutns id crazy strong
Changing Swift with the card has Noele on it that she's using her Q, that makes changes the character to fast action. It's a messed up combo for me once you get in the early game. Two characters get elemental reaction
not only rosaria, but I think also the noelle card is pretty strong! the one that let you switch character as a fast action, althought it cost 1 dice so depending on situation and how ur dices are one or another is better
Thanks for the great list I assume the free cards from story means I should finish the tutorial to get the default deck including these cards.
2 jade palaces and two geo sets (on ninguang for example and one other character)
can make you get 8 geo dices guaranteed
it's useful when ninguang skill does 4 dmg (sacrificial fragments plus her card)
she gets 1 geo dice everytime she uses skill, plus burst being able to one shot character
This deck is literally the one I went for immediately it's so much fun! Fischl and Collei summons destroy from the sides
I'm surprised Jade Chamber didn't make it in. For ONE DIE, you PERMANENTLY make all your rounds a lot easier, guaranteed to being able to use a skill/burst rather than relying on lucky rolls and/or discarding cards.
I'll agree with most of these, but also add Knights of Favonius Library. 1 cost, allows you to reroll more dice per turn. Pretty damn good at making sure you're getting the right elements indefinitely.
Changing shifts with Leave it to me is my favorite card combos cuz it basically gives me a free character switch while that same switch is considered as a fast action. Best part is, they're both free.
