Jiangyu’s Skills & Keys
Skills that disrupt and empower.
Key effects that turn the tide.
Top Picks:
- Intercepting Fist: Before an enemy unit within 8 tiles performs an active attack, Jiangyu intercepts, dealing Electric damage equal to 60% of attack and 2 points of Stability Damage. Applies Conductivity for 1 turn. Triggers up to 2 times per turn.
- Calm Focus: At the start of the turn, applies Positive Charge to the allied doll with the highest attack for 3 turns.
- Opening Move: Before an ally with Positive Charge (excluding Jiangyu) uses an active skill, applies Defense Down II to the target.
Rate-Up Banner: Jiangyu + More
Three dolls, one electric star.
Jiangyu debuts on a rate-up banner alongside Littara and Ksenia. She’s strong immediately at V0 and fills a core role in Electric compositions, making her a safe one-copy pull for most players.
Vertebrae Breakpoints:
- V0: Fully functional and strong right out of the box
- V1: Adds an extra Support Attack and improves buffs/debuffs
- V3: QoL upgrade fixing rotation (not required)
- V6: Not a meaningful damage upgrade compared to V0
Disclaimer: It’s not recommended to pull for V3/6; one copy is sufficient for most players.
Verdict: Jiangyu is completely online at V0. Higher dupes add convenience, but Leva gains more from investment if you’re pushing a Mono-Electric comp.
Teams: Any electric doll pairs well with her. Jiangyu can provide a cleanse for allies, but it is not a reliable or sustainable option. If you need consistent healing with dispel, you should use Ksenia or Yoohee instead.
Suggested lineup: Lenna, Leva, Mosin or flex, Belka, or flex, Jiangyu.
Leaping Tiger: Jiangyu’s Signature Weapon
Optional but deadly in the right hands.
Should You Get Leaping Tiger?
Optional. Ceia notes Leaping Tiger is not required. Jiangyu performs well with Golden Melody and other strong options, so there is no urgency to invest at launch.
Additional Outfits
A sharp look for a sharper doll.
Jiangyu’s Raindrop-Cleaving Blades outfit is available in the Outfit Shop from September 24 – October 15 at a launch discount for $9.99 / 880 tokens.
Final Thoughts
Jiangyu shores up the Electric roster as a stability-breaking support that buffs allies and debuffs bosses. She’s efficient right out of the gate at V0, with no real pressure to chase dupes or her signature weapon.
If you are committing to a Mono-Electric team with Leva, Jiangyu fits naturally. Otherwise, she is strong but not required, a unit you can comfortably pick up at one copy and circle back to later.
Good luck, commanders, and may your pulls crackle with lightning.
