#2 Yaoyao Catalyze — Keqing Main DPS (SS+)

Tier SS

Yaoyao is the team's healer and buffer. The team's damage is maximized by triggering Catalyze (Dendro + Electro). Keqing is the Main DPS using multi‑stage attacks to proc Catalyze, Fischl provides persistent Electro attachment (C6 highly recommended), and Kazuha offers grouping + EM/Res shred via Viridescent Venerer. Yaoyao provides healing and Tenacity of the Millelith buffs to increase team damage.
Key synergy: Fischl + Keqing apply Electro for Catalyze with Yaoyao's Dendro application; elemental resonance and crowd control increase burst uptime and safety.

#3 Yaoyao Bloom SS Team — Ayato + Nahida + Nilou (Yaoyao Healer)

Tier SS

Yaoyao is the healer/shielder while the team deals damage primarily through Bloom. Nilou's passive converts Bloom cores into Bountiful Cores when the team is only Dendro + Hydro, causing faster bursts and larger AoE damage. Ayato and Nilou provide on- and off-field Hydro to enable consistent Bloom with Nahida's Dendro application.
Works best with the listed artifact/weapon optimizations; Yaoyao C1 provides additional Dendro DMG support to Nahida.

#4 Yaoyao Bloom Team #2

Tier SS

Yaoyao is the healer/support for this Bloom team. The team deals most damage via Bloom reactions — with Nilou converting Bloom cores into Bountiful Cores (larger AoE, faster burst). Nahida is the on-field/main damage source (Dendro), while Nilou and Xingqiu provide off-field Hydro to consistently trigger Bloom. Having two Hydro characters also increases the duration of Nahida's Elemental Burst.

#5 Yaoyao Bloom Team — Alhaitham Main DPS Bloom (Nilou + Xingqiu + Yaoyao)

Alhaitham is the on-field Main DPS (Dendro infusion + Chisel-Light Mirrors) while Nilou and Xingqiu provide off-field Hydro to reliably trigger Bloom. Yaoyao supplies healing and team-wide buffs via Tenacity of the Millelith.
