  • Yun Jin
  • Sucrose
  • Xiangling

The excellent sub-DPS characters present in this banner almost made it impossible for the players to skip the banner. While Xiangling is an important character for beginners specially in the Spiral Abyss, Yun Jin was a recently added Geo character. Sucrose, on the other hand is quite beneficial in Anemo DMG as well as elemental reactions.

Nevertheless, the 5-star characters were undoubtedly the main reason for the high revenue growth of this banner. Ayato’s abilities as a Hydro character make him surpass Childe as he provides a huge Hydro AoE DMG whereas Venti is still the best character for crowd pulling. As the game’s meta is introducing powerful characters, pulling for Venti might be a wise choice.
