Kazuha’s burst, "Chihayaburu", is a powerful tool in a Freeze team, especially when paired with Cryo characters like Ganyu, Ayaka, or Rosaria. Here’s how it all works:
1. Kazuha’s Burst: Setting the Stage
Kazuha’s burst creates a "Whirlwind" that sucks enemies in, dealing Anemo damage and applying the Swirl reaction. This is where the magic happens with Cryo characters.
2. The Cryo Connection: Swirl and Freeze
When Kazuha’s Whirlwind comes into contact with a Cryo character’s Cryo application (like Ganyu’s charged shots or Ayaka’s skill), it triggers the Swirl reaction. This amplifies the Cryo damage and most importantly, applies Cryo to all the enemies caught in the Whirlwind.
3. Freeze: Lock and Load
Now, with Cryo applied to all the enemies, the next step is crucial. This is where the Cryo characters shine! They apply Cryo even more, either through their skills, bursts, or attacks. Once a character like Ganyu or Ayaka applies enough Cryo, enemies get Frozen.
4. Frozen: Vulnerable and Powerful
Frozen enemies become completely immobilized, unable to attack or move. This is a huge advantage in combat because it makes them sitting ducks for your DPS characters to unleash their full potential.
5. The Kazuha Advantage: Amplified Freeze
Kazuha’s Whirlwind, combined with Cryo characters, makes freezing enemies a lot faster and easier. Imagine Ganyu’s charged shots or Ayaka’s skill hitting multiple enemies caught in the Whirlwind, instantly freezing them. This is where Kazuha truly shines.
6. The "Double Swirl" for Increased Cryo Damage
Kazuha’s burst can even trigger a double Swirl! If your Cryo character applies Cryo while the Whirlwind is active, Kazuha’s burst will then swirl Cryo with whatever element is already on the enemy. This further increases the damage output and creates a chain reaction of Cryo application.
7. Beyond Freeze: Kazuha’s Other Benefits
Kazuha doesn’t just enhance the Freeze team through Swirl and Cryo damage. Her burst also:
- Provides Crowd Control: Grouping enemies together for easier targeting and damage.
- Increases Elemental Damage: Kazuha’s burst can increase the elemental damage of all teammates, including Cryo characters, making their attacks even more powerful.
- Empowers Cryo Characters: Some Cryo characters like Ganyu benefit from the increased elemental mastery provided by Kazuha’s passive talents.
In summary, Kazuha’s burst is a vital component of a Freeze team. It accelerates the freeze process, increases Cryo damage, and provides crowd control, making it easier for Cryo characters to unleash their full potential.
