Best Teams for Gaming
Gaming Works Best in Pyro Reaction Teams
| Rating | Team Description |
|---|---|
| Best | ▼ Melt Team - With the release of Citlali, her ability to apply Cryo consistently and shred Pyro RES makes her a great support for Gaming in a Melt team. - Xianyun and Bennett are healers and also provide their own buffs for Gaming. - Gaming can be built with more EM for more Melt DMG since Bennett is on the team. Pyro Resonance also gives him an ATK buff as well. |
| 2nd | ▼ Vaporize Team - Vaporize team with Furina is Gaming's former best team but it can still deal high enough damage. - Furina can easily gain Fanfare stacks with all the teammates having HP effects so Gaming can get a max DMG buff easily. |
| 3rd | ▼ Overload Team - Both Durin and Chevreuse Overload teams can be used. - Ineffa's shielding provides additional comfort but if Gaming is in the air more, Durin's team would be better depending on your preference. |
| 4th | ▼ F2P Melt Team - F2P Melt team for Gaming to maximize the reaction's multiplier to boost his damage. - Can be changed to a Vaporize team if you don't have some of the alternative characters. |
As a Plunging Attack DPS, Gaming's Pyro element enables him to amplify the damage he deals using Elemental Reactions. Notably, Melt and Vaporize work well by multiplying his damage, while Overload is a mono-Pyro team type that greatly boosts Pyro damage.
Melt Team
Team Composition & Equipment
| Character | Weapon Artifacts & Stats |
|---|---|
Gaming | Serpent Spine Marechaussee Hunter x4 Main ATK% / Pyro DMG Bonus / CRIT Rate or DMG Sub 1. CRIT Rate or DMG 2. Energy Recharge 3. Elemental Mastery 4. ATK% |
Xianyun | Crane's Echoing Call Song Of Days Past x4 Main ATK% / ATK% / ATK% Sub 1. Energy Recharge 2. ATK% |
Bennett | Aquila Favonia Noblesse Oblige x4 Main Energy Recharge / HP% / Healing Bonus or HP% Sub 1. Energy Recharge 2. HP% |
Citlali | Starcaller's Watch Scroll Of The Hero Of Cinder City x4 Main EM / EM / EM Sub 1. Energy Recharge 2. Elemental Mastery |
Gaming's best partners are Xianyun and Bennett as Plunge Attack and ATK buffers to boost Gaming's damage. Citlali replaces the 3rd member, who is usually a Hydro Sub-DPS, since her Cryo application is good enough for Gaming and has a long duration.
Rotation Of Melt Team
| No. | Procedure |
|---|---|
| 1 | Start with Xianyun, use her Skill once, then perform a Plunge Attack. |
| 2 | Use Xianyun's Burst before switching her out |
| 3 | Switch to Bennett and use his Skill then Burst |
| 4 | Switch to Citlali and use her Skill then Burst |
| 5 | Switch to Gaming and use his Burst |
| 6 | Use Gaming's Plunge Attack combo (Skill then Plunging Attack) to deal damage |
| 7 | Repeat from Step 1 once buffs expire |
The rotation is slightly different from Gaming's Vaporize team since Xianyun no longer needs to hold VV since Scroll set is easier to trigger.
Substitute Characters
| Character | Sub | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Xianyun | XilonenJahodaSucroseKazuha | - Any Elemental RES shred support and healer can be used as an alternative to Xianyun. - However, they will have a noticeably weaker impact on Gaming's damage since Xianyun greatly buffs Plunging Attacks. |
| Bennett | FurinaIansan | - Furina can be used as DMG buffer in Gaming's Melt team since Frozen still triggers Melt. - Iansan is another option for ATK buffing but since she's Electro, Gaming will have a higher ER requirement. |
| Citlali | Escoffier | - Escoffier can be used as a Cryo Sub-DPS alternative with no range restrictions. If used with Furina, she can help provide healing to maximize Furina's DMG buff. - Rosaria can also be used as a Cryo Sub-DPS and CRIT Rate buffer, but her Burst is stationary. |
If you are replacing Citlali, you can change to a Vaporize team instead if you have Furina.

Gaming's classic premium team. Xianyun buffs his Plunging Attacks, Bennett buffs his ATK and Furina buffs overall DMG. Similar to his Melt team, Gaming can be built with more Elemental Mastery since Bennett buffs ATK a lot.
Rotation Of Vaporize Team
| No. | Procedure |
|---|---|
| 1 | Start with Xianyun, use her Skill once, then perform a Plunging Attack. |
| 2 | Switch to Bennett and use his Skill then Burst |
| 3 | Switch back to Xianyun and use her Burst to trigger Swirl for VV |
| 4 | Switch to Furina and use her Skill then Burst |
| 5 | Switch to Gaming and use his Burst |
| 6 | Use Gaming's Plunge Attack combo (Skill then Plunging Attack) to deal damage |
| 7 | Repeat from Step 1 once buffs expire |
Compared to other teams with Furina, she is used last in the support rotation since Gaming, Xianyun and Bennett's HP effects will trigger Furina's Fanfare stacks easily.
Substitute Characters
| Character | Sub | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Xianyun | XilonenJahodaSucroseKazuha | - If you're still using Furina in the team, bringing any Elemental RES shred support with healing works better than the usual shred support. - You can bring RES shred only supports if Furina isn't on the team though Gaming and Bennett's HP changes should suffice for Furina's stacks. |
| Bennett | Iansan | - Iansan is the next best ATK buffer for Gaming though her Element would mean Gaming needs more ER. |
| Furina | AinoKokomi | - Aino can have great Hydro application and range with a 2nd Moonsign character. Jahoda is recommended to be used with her since Jahoda can hold VV. - Kokomi can help apply Hydro, but her range is limited and stationary. |
Overload Team
Team Composition & Equipment
| Character | Weapon Artifacts & Stats |
|---|---|
Gaming | Serpent Spine Marechaussee Hunter x4 Main ATK% / Pyro DMG Bonus / CRIT Rate or DMG Sub 1. CRIT Rate or DMG 2. Energy Recharge 3. Elemental Mastery 4. ATK% |

Bennett | Aquila Favonia Noblesse Oblige x4 Main Energy Recharge / HP% / Healing Bonus or HP% Sub 1. Energy Recharge 2. HP% |
Ineffa | Fractured Halo Gilded Dreams x4 Main EM or ATK% / ATK% / CRIT Rate or DMG Sub 1. CRIT Rate or DMG 2. Energy Recharge 3. ATK% until 2000 4. Elemental Mastery |
Overload team using Chevreuse as the core. All three characters aside from Gaming provide sustain support and Ineffa provides Electro application. Chevreuse and Bennett work together to buff Gaming's stats.
Rotation Of Overload Team
| No. | Procedure |
|---|---|
| 1 | Start with Ineffa and use her Skill |
| 2 | Switch to Chevreuse and use her Burst then Skill (Hold) |
| 3 | Switch to Bennett and use his Skill then Burst |
| 4 | Switch to Gaming and use his Burst |
| 5 | Use Gaming's Plunge Attack combo (Skill then Plunging Attack) to deal damage |
| 6 | Repeat from Step 1 once buffs expire |
Ineffa doesn't need to use her Elemental Burst in this team and only her Skill is needed for deploying Birgitta and creating shields.
Substitute Characters
| Character | Sub | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Chevreuse | Durin | - Durin can replace Chevreuse as shred support if he's paired with Fischl. |
| Bennett | Iansan | - Iansan is an ATK buffer who can be used in an Overload team as well. |
| Ineffa | FischlRaiden Shogun | - Fischl is the preferred alternative for Electro Sub-DPS, especially if you are using Durin as the shred support. - Raiden Shogun can work as Electro Sub-DPS with a long duration on her Off-Field applier. |
F2P Melt Team
Team Composition & Equipment
| Character | Weapon Artifacts & Stats |
|---|---|
Gaming | Mailed Flower Marechaussee Hunter x4 Main EM / Pyro DMG Bonus / CRIT Rate or DMG Sub 1. CRIT Rate or DMG 2. Energy Recharge 3. Elemental Mastery 4. ATK% |

Iansan | Tamayuratei No Ohanashi Scroll Of The Hero Of Cinder City x4 Main Energy Recharge or ATK% / ATK% / ATK% Sub 1. Energy Recharge 2. ATK% |
Bennett | Favonius Sword Noblesse Oblige x4 Main Energy Recharge / HP% / Healing Bonus or HP% Sub 1. Energy Recharge 2. HP% |
Gaming's F2P team makes use of Iansan's ability to hold Scroll set to buff Pyro DMG. Rosaria gives him a CRIT Rate buff and applies Cryo for Melt while both Iansan and Bennett buff his ATK.
Rotation Of F2P Melt Team
| No. | Procedure |
|---|---|
| 1 | Start with Bennett and use his Skill then Burst |
| 2 | Switch to Iansan and use her Skill then Normal Attack |
| 3 | Use Iansan's Burst before switching her out |
| 4 | Switch to Rosaria and use her Skill then Burst |
| 5 | Switch to Gaming and use his Burst |
| 6 | Use Gaming's Plunge Attack combo (Skill then Plunging Attack) to deal damage |
| 7 | Repeat from Step 1 once buffs expire |
Substitute Characters
| Character | Sub | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Rosaria | DionaAino | - Diona has a smaller range for her Burst that applies Cryo but she can be used for healing and an EM buff when she's C6. - If you don't have Diona or Rosaria, you can change the team to Vaporize and use Aino instead. |
| Iansan | SucroseJahoda | - Sucrose can provide an EM buff and help reapply Elements with her Burst. - If you're doing a Vaporize team with Aino, use Jahoda as the shred support since Aino needs Ascendant Gleam effect for a better application. |
| Bennett | Iansan | - If you are using a VV unit but don't have Bennett, you can still use Iansan and have her on Noblesse set instead. |
