Cards to Aim for Initially
| Card | Recommended Reason |
|---|---|
| Bullet Trick | - Can add 1 Shadowchaser Shell to hand - Essential for opening moves |
| Lost Legacies in the Sand | - Can redraw hand - Helps stabilize opening moves |
| Conductor's Top Hat | - Can discard card when switching equipped character to active - Keep Qucusaurus or Conductor's Top Hat as essential for opening moves |
| Qucusaurus | - Can discard card when switching equipped character to active - Keep Qucusaurus or Conductor's Top Hat as essential for opening moves |
| Awesome, Bro | - Can search for Qucusaurus - Keep if you don't have Qucusaurus |
| Stormterror's Lair | - Can search talent + reduce cost by 1 - If you didn't draw talents |
How to Play
Turn 1: Select Skirk, Chasca Talent → Switch to Chasca
On Turn 1, select Skirk and use Chasca's talent card to add a Cryo Shadowchaser Shell to your hand. Then equip Qucusaurus or Conductor's Top Hat to Chasca, switch to Chasca → use Skill in that order to trigger Cryo Swirl. To achieve this, actively use Draw/Search cards.
Turn 2: Chip Away and Stack with Abyss Lector and Skirk Talent
On Turn 2, switch to Abyss Lector & use Skill, and trigger Superconduct with Skirk's talent and Void Rift to chip away at enemies and stack Skirk's Serpent's Cunning simultaneously. Use remaining cost for Artifacts and Event cards.
Turn 3 Onwards: Trigger Superconduct and Finish with Skirk
From Turn 3 onwards, trigger Superconduct with Abyss Lector while finishing with Skirk. If you can use Skirk's Elemental Burst after stacking Serpent's Cunning, it's easier to finish multiple enemies simultaneously.

How to Play
Opening: Escoffier Skill → Lyney Pyro 3 Normal Attack
For the opening, use Escoffier Skill, then switch to Lyney and use Pyro 3 Normal Attack. Use remaining cost for Support/Event cards to prepare for subsequent turns.
After Opening: Aim for Reactions with 3 Characters + Place Summons
After the opening, aim for Melt/Vaporize/Frozen reactions with all 3 characters while continuously summoning summons. To effectively utilize Hydro Tulpa's passive and Fell Dragon event card effect, use summons completely instead of refreshing them.
Finish with Hydro Tulpa Burst or Fell Dragon
In the late game, finish with Tulpa Burst with summons active or Fell Dragon at maximum effect. You can also activate Fell Dragon with Ultimate Surfing Buddy! or Hydro Tulpa's Skill/Burst to deal even more damage.
Genius Invokation TCG Beginner Best Deck
Electro-Charged Swirl Deck
※Can be built with just obtaining Mona as it uses 2 free characters
※If you lack cards, substitute with what you have on hand
| Equipment (Talent) Cards | ||
|---|---|---|
| Stellar Predator×2 | Chaotic Entropy×2 | - |
| Support Cards | ||
| Liben×2 | Knights Of Favonius Library×2 | Liyue Harbor Wharf×2 |
| Liu Su×1 | Chang The Ninth×2 | Katheryne×1 |

| Quick Knit×2 | Strategize×2 | The Bestest Travel Companion!×2 |
| Toss-Up×2 | Calx's Arts×2 | Leave It to Me!×2 |
| When The Crane Returned×2 | Changing Shifts×2 | - |
Cards to Aim for Initially
| Card | Recommended Reason |
|---|---|
| Stellar Predator | - Can attack while enhancing Fischl's Skill - Recommended as Fischl's Skill is important for this build |
| When The Crane Returned | - Can switch characters while attacking with Skill - Can immediately switch to Sucrose after When The Crane Returnedf + Fischl Skill |
| Leave It to Me! | - Can Quick switch characters at 0 cost - Recommended as it makes triggering elemental reactions easier |
| Chang The Ninth | - Can draw 2 cards at 0 cost after triggering 3 elemental reactions - Also compresses deck - Worth aiming for as this build can trigger elemental reactions from Turn 1 |
Turn 1: Fischl → Sucrose to Spread Electro
In the opening, activate Fischl's Elemental Skill to apply Electro to the opponent. Then, aim to spread Electro to all enemies with Sucrose's Electro Swirl. Activating Fischl's Oz in the opening allows elemental application during End Phase, making Swirl easier to trigger.
Turn 2: Ideally Activate Sucrose's Burst Too
If the situation allows, it's ideal to also aim for Sucrose's Elemental Burst on Turn 2. Using the Elemental Burst places a summon that can trigger Anemo Swirl, potentially spreading the next attack's element to all enemies via Swirl.
Turn 3: Aim for AoE Damage with Mona's Elemental Skill
On Turn 3, use Mona's Elemental Skill to trigger Electro-Charged reactions for AoE damage. From then on, try to spread elements to all enemies with Swirl before dealing damage and you'll be good.

| When The Crane Returned | - Can switch characters while attacking with Skill - Can immediately switch to Mona after When The Crane Returned + Keqing Skill |
| Leave It to Me! | - Can Quick switch characters at 0 cost - Recommended as it makes triggering elemental reactions easier |
| The Bestest Travel Companion! | - Can generate 2 Omni Elements - Recommended when you draw it as Undivided Heart's cost is heavy |
Decide Whether to Aim for Freeze or AoE Damage Based on Opponent
The strength of Frozen Superconduct is being able to deliberately aim for either "Frozen to freeze enemies" or "AoE damage from Superconduct or Electro-Charged". Decide whether to attack or defend after seeing your opening hand. When in doubt, starting with 'Mona' allows flexible play - don't forget this.
Be Mindful of Ganyu's AoE Damage Too
What you should be mindful of when playing is where to use 'Ganyu's' AoE piercing damage. Chip away at HP with Electro-Charged and prepare your hand so you can sweep with Ganyu, adjusting HP accordingly.
