Best Kinich Teams in Genshin Impact 5.0 (Ranked)

Kinich is a 5-star Dendro Main-DPS who wields a Claymore and his kit is strong in Burning and Burgeon teams. Kinich’s kit enables him to latch on to enemies with his grappling hook and constantly deal Dendro damage with Loop shots. His damage considerably increases when the Burning or Burgeon reaction is triggered by nearby allies. The best teams of Kinich will need to have characters that can trigger the Burning or Burgeon reaction with consistency to maximize his damage. Here I have ranked the 5 best teams for Kinich in Genshin Impact.

5. Kinich-Yelan-Fischl-Nahida

One of the better teams for Kinich is a Hyperbloom team. Although this is not Kinich’s ideal team, Hyperbloom Reaction still does an insane amount of damage alone, making it a very viable option. Pairing Kinich with a Hydro and an Electro unit with Kinich acting as a Dendro driver will let him easily trigger Hyperbloom. The best characters for this team are Yelan, Fischl or Kuki, and Nahida alongside Kinich.

4. Kinich-Emilie-Bennet-Zhongli

Kinich and Emilie combo is very strong, even though Emilie doesn’t buff Kinich but instead acts as a Sub-DPS. Pairing Kinich with Bennet in this team will allow him to use the Burning reaction to both enhance his kit and Emilie’s. Zhongli is also a solid choice for this team to keep the team safe from taking damage or preventing knockbacks.

3. Kinich-Furina-Thoma-Bennet

Kinich also works great in Burgeon teams, especially with Furina alongside him. Burgeon and burning reactions are perfect to trigger Kinich’s kit, and the damage taken by Kinich will only strengthen his damage with Furina in the team. Thoma is a great pick for this team alongside Bennet, perfectly enhancing Kinich’s kit to deal more damage.

2. Kinich-Xiangling-Emilie-Bennet

Kinich and Emilie’s combo is very strong, so it shouldn’t be surprising to see another version of their team comp as the best team alternative for Kinich. Instead of having Zhongli in the team to protect Kinich, adding Xiangling increases the total damage output of the team by a lot. With Xiangling’s addition, this team easily triggers the burning reaction, letting both Kinich and Emilie do their job of destroying enemies.

1. Kinich-Furina-Xiangling-Bennet

The best Kinich team in Genshin Impact will be a Burgeon team with Furina, Xiangling, and Bennet. This is the same team placed in 3rd position, with Thoma replaced with Xiangling to increase the damage output. Thoma may have a quicker CD compared to Xiangling, but she significantly increases the total damage output of the team, making it the best option for Kinich.
