#3 Tighnari Burgeon Team — Dendro Catalyze / Burgeon (SS)

Tier SS

Core idea: Tighnari is the main DPS. The team is built to generate Dendro cores (Bloom) and then trigger Burgeon/Catalyze-style reactions with Electro to deal large AoE damage. Nahida and Fischl provide Dendro application and off-field Electro respectively, while Kuki Shinobu acts as healer/support and helps trigger Spread/enable reactions.
Note: keep Tighnari as the on-field DPS with Nahida/Fischl enabling reactions and Kuki providing sustain and EM support.

Tighnari
Main DPSDendroDendro

Tighnari is the team's main DPS. The Dendro from Tighnari reacts with Hydro to trigger Bloom (creating seeds/cores), then those seeds can be interacted with other elements (Electro/Pyro depending on composition) to trigger Burgeon or Catalyze for big AoE damage.

#4 Tighnari Catalyze Hyperbloom

Tier SS

Core idea: Use Nahida + Kuki to enable Catalyze/Hyperbloom setups that maximize Tighnari's Dendro damage. Team switches between Tighnari and Ayato as the active Main DPS depending on burst cooldowns. Kuki provides Electro application and strong Elemental Mastery scaling to empower Hyperbloom cores.
