Genshin Impact Video Leak Shows Exceptional Ayato and Ayaka Sibling Synergy

gamerant.com:

Frequent character rumors in Genshin Impact create a lot of hype for characters who are still in development. Over the last couple of updates, miHoYo introduced an interesting pattern of adding a new character alongside two banner re-runs in a single update.

Developer miHoYo has already confirmed a brand-new Genshin Impact character named Kamisato Ayato for 2.6, even before Yae Miko and update 2.5 arrived on the live servers. He will apparently be a new five-star roster addition considering that he's the only announced character.

An interesting leak on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit shows a video featuring Kamisato Ayato alongside his sister Ayaka. In the video, the player groups a group of Hilichurls before unleashing his Elemental Burst which does AoE Hydro damage. After Ayato applies the wet effect, Ayaka activates her Elemental Burst summoning a snowstorm which triggers the Freeze elemental reaction. This combo will be extremely effective against groups of enemies that occasionally tend to avoid combat.

Many players were expecting a great synergy between these two. Even though most players thought that it was his sister Ayaka who was pulling the strings for the clan, recent story quests have revealed that it's actually Ayato who assumes the leadership role. Ayaka has a unique kit that revolves around a consistent application of the Cryo element through her kit. Her rotation is different from most Genshin Impact characters in that she needs to weave in sprinting in order to infuse her normal attacks with her element. This means that she will greatly benefit from being with a Hydro character like Ayato who allows her to constantly trigger Freeze.
