With Genius Invokation TCG, the developers of Genshin Impact have added an entire trading card game to the RPG just like that for players to enjoy. Much like in the main game, all characters – in the TCG, of course, in card form – have their specific strengths and weaknesses. If you want to build the best decks, you will of course need the appropriate character cards. This Genshin Impact Genius Invokation TCG tier list will show you which character cards are especially strong.
Genshin Impact TCG character tier list: S-Tier
S-Tier cards excel in their field and often cover several important aspects at once – these are the characters that make up the foundations of the most powerful Decks.
- Kamisato Ayaka – strong passive and easy completion of Cryo reactions.
- Ganyu – superior area damage and shield penetration.
- Mona – easier character switches and constant Hydro application.
- Keqing – increased card draw and outstanding ultimate.
- Xiangling – constant passive Pyro application.
- Fatui Pyro Agent – strong passive and cheap ultimate.
Genshin Impact TCG character tier list: A-Tier
A-Tier cards are also very powerful in their field. However, they have more limited uses than their higher tier counterparts.
- Xingqiu – reduces incoming damage and provides Hydro infusion for allies.
- Bennett – cheap ultimate with healing and damage boost.
- Chongyun – provides Cryo infusion for allies.
- Yoimiya – powerful ultimate for one-turn kill combos.
- Fischl – excellent summon for Electro reactions.
- Collei – very good summon for Dendro reactions, only easily available Dendro card.
- Noelle – reduces incoming damage and powerful ultimate
- Maguu Kenki – high flexibility thanks to Anemo and Cryo powers.
Genshin Impact TCG character tier list: B-Tier
B-Tier cards are still exceedingly potent under the right circumstances, but everything has to be right for that to happen. They are therefore less flexible overall than higher tier cards.
- Diluc – strong Pyro damage against single targets with ultimate high cost.
- Kaeya – ultimate is only effective on switches, though very useful.
- Rhodeia Of Loch – summons are strong, but there is an RNG factor.
- Sucrose – useful ultimate with Anemo powers.
- Ningguang – reduces incoming damage, can pierce elemental shields.
- Razor – solid, but overshadowed option in the Electro element.
- Jadeplume Terrorshroom – long build up time for powerful strikes.
- Cyno – long build up time and high energy cost for his powerful attacks.
Genshin Impact TCG character tier list: C-Tier
C-Tier cards have significant weaknesses and have a niche existence – when everything is right for their use, they perform well. However, as soon as plans change, their usefulness drops.
- Barbara – constant but low healing.
- Diona – low healing for high cost.
- Jean – fantastic, but very expensive ultimate.
- Mirror Maiden – overshadowed in the Hydro element.
- Stoneskin Lawachurl – no elemental damage.
Genius Invokation TCG is still quite fresh and players are just scratching the surface of the game mode – plus there will certainly be future updates with new cards in store, so things are constantly in flux. While the tier list can show you strengths and weaknesses and rank them in general terms, in the end, you’ll have to decide which characters to build your deck from based on your own taste and playstyle as well as your opponent’s decks in challenges. There are plenty of possibilities to consider, so be open to experiments!
