Genshin Impact: The Top 10 Strongest Teams in 2025

The world of Teyvat continues to evolve with new characters, regions, and elemental reactions reshaping the meta landscape in Genshin Impact. As we move through 2025, certain team compositions have proven themselves to be exceptionally powerful across various combat scenarios. Let's dive into the current top 10 strongest teams dominating the battlefield this year.

1. Lunar-Bloom Supremacy

The introduction of the Lunar-Bloom reaction has created one of the most devastating team compositions in Genshin Impact history. This team revolves around the synergy between:

• Nefer (Main DPS)

• Lauma (Dendro Support)

• Kaveh (Bloom Detonator)

• Nilou (Bloom Enhancer)

What makes this team exceptional is Nefer's ability to absorb Dendro cores and convert them into massive damage through her Seeds of Deceit mechanic. When paired with Lauma's consistent Dendro application and Nilou's Bloom enhancements, this team can achieve one-rotation clears in most combat scenarios.

2. Raiden National

Despite being around for years, the Raiden National team remains one of the most powerful and F2P-friendly compositions in the game:

• Raiden Shogun (Main DPS/Battery)

• Xingqiu (Off-field Hydro)

• Xiangling (Off-field Pyro)

• Bennett (Buffer/Healer)

The beauty of this team lies in its simplicity and effectiveness. Bennett buffs the entire team's attack, Xingqiu and Xiangling provide consistent off-field elemental application for reactions, and Raiden ties everything together with energy regeneration and massive burst damage.

3. Nod-Krai Electro-Charged

The Nod-Krai region introduced the Lunar-Charged reaction, creating a powerful team archetype:

• Flins (Main DPS)

• Ineffa (Electro Support)

• Aino (Hydro Application)

• Sucrose (EM Buffer/Crowd Control)

This composition leverages the unique Lunar-Charged reaction, which significantly amplifies Electro-Charged damage when properly triggered. Sucrose's Elemental Mastery sharing and resistance shredding further elevates the team's damage ceiling.

4. Hypercarry Arlecchino

Arlecchino's unique kit and scaling have made her one of the most devastating Pyro DPS characters:

• Arlecchino (Main DPS)

• Yelan (Off-field Hydro)

• Zhongli (Shield/Resistance Shred)

• Bennett (Buffer/Healer)

This team focuses on maximizing Arlecchino's personal damage through vaporize reactions. Zhongli provides necessary interruption resistance while Yelan and Bennett offer the perfect support framework for consistent, high-damage vaporize reactions.

5. Freeze Domination

The freeze team composition continues to excel in crowd control and consistent damage:

• Skirk (Main DPS)

• Escoffier (Hydro Application)

• Shenhe (Cryo Buffer)

• Kazuha (Crowd Control/Elemental DMG Bonus)

Skirk's fluid playstyle makes her perfect for freeze teams, while Escoffier provides the consistent Hydro application needed to maintain the frozen status. Shenhe's Cryo DMG buffs and Kazuha's elemental damage bonus create a team that can lock down enemies while dealing tremendous damage.

6. Hyperbloom Nahida

The Hyperbloom reaction has evolved into one of the most powerful team compositions:

• Nahida (Dendro Application)

• Yelan (Hydro Application)

• Kuki Shinobu (Electro Trigger/Healer)

• Xingqiu (Additional Hydro/Damage Reduction)

This team excels at creating and detonating Dendro cores for massive damage. Nahida provides excellent off-field Dendro application, while the dual Hydro resonance not only creates more Dendro cores but also increases the team's overall HP, which benefits Kuki Shinobu's healing and damage.

7. Rainbow Chasca

Chasca's unique ability to leverage multiple elements has created a powerful and flexible team composition:

• Chasca (Main DPS)

• Furina (Hydro Support/HP Management)

• Ororon (Off-field Electro)

• Bennett (Buffer/Healer)

This team takes advantage of Chasca's ability to benefit from having Pyro, Hydro, and Electro characters in the party, creating a versatile team that can handle almost any combat situation through multiple reaction types.

8. Burning Melt

The introduction of Kinich has revolutionized Burning-focused teams:

• Kinich (Main DPS)

• Emilie (Dendro Support)

• Thoma (Pyro Application/Shield)

• Bennett (Buffer/Healer)

Kinich's kit is specifically designed to capitalize on the Burning reaction, which has traditionally been underutilized. When paired with Emilie's Dendro application and consistent Pyro from Thoma and Bennett, this team creates a unique damage profile that excels against groups of enemies.

9. Double Hydro Hu Tao

Hu Tao continues to be one of the strongest single-target DPS characters in the game:

• Hu Tao (Main DPS)

• Xingqiu (Off-field Hydro)

• Yelan (Off-field Hydro)

• Zhongli (Shield/Resistance Shred)

The double Hydro resonance provides HP bonuses that directly benefit Hu Tao's damage scaling, while ensuring consistent Hydro application for vaporize reactions. Zhongli's shield prevents interruption and shreds enemy resistance, creating an environment where Hu Tao can maximize her damage potential.

10. International Childe

The classic International team remains powerful years after its inception:

• Tartaglia/Childe (On-field Hydro)

• Xiangling (Off-field Pyro)

• Bennett (Buffer/Healer)

• Kazuha (Crowd Control/Elemental DMG Bonus)

This team excels at area-of-effect damage through Childe's Hydro application and Xiangling's Pyronado, creating consistent vaporize reactions. Kazuha's crowd control and elemental damage bonus, combined with Bennett's attack buff, create a team that can quickly clear groups of enemies.

Honorable Mentions

Several other powerful team compositions just missed the top 10:

• Yae Miko Aggravate with Tighnari, Zhongli, and Nahida

• Neuvillette Hypercarry with Furina, Xilonen, and Kazuha

• Varesa Plunge team with Iansan, Xianyun, and Furina

The meta in Genshin Impact continues to evolve with each new character and region released. While these teams currently represent the strongest options available, the dynamic nature of the game means new powerful compositions are always on the horizon. The key to success remains building teams with strong synergy between characters and reactions, while also considering your personal playstyle preferences.

Whether you prefer the raw power of vaporize reactions, the control offered by freeze teams, or the new Lunar-Bloom and Lunar-Charged mechanics, Genshin Impact offers diverse team-building options for players of all preferences and investment levels.
