How to Beat Cyno in a Friendly Fracas
Freeze Cyno's Cards
Mona and Ganyu provide opportunities to Freeze Cyno's Character Cards, making it harder for him to attack!
Deal AoE Damage to all his Cards
Both Ganyu and Keqing have attacks perfect for dealing damage to all enemy cards. Dealing AoE attacks such as these can end the battle faster!
Avoid his Elemental Burst
Cyno's Elemental Burst can deal a lot of damage, so it's best to avoid him using it. Force Cyno to swap active characters, freeze his Cyno card, or defeat the card first to avoid getting hit!
How to Beat Cyno in a Serious Showdown
Rely on Shields and Healing
Cyno's deck is one of the hardest to battle against, since it's made to bruteforce damage until your HP is depleted. And also with Xingqiu present, it's easy to do Electro-charged to shred the HP of your cards on standby.
Relying on shields and healing can help you mitigate some damage and replenish some of your lost HP.
Use Piercing Attacks
Piercing damage or any elemental reaction with similar effect, can be a good way to ensure a safe battle against Cyno's deck. You can do this with Ganyu's Burst, which you can further enhance with Fischl's Oz.
Relying on summons as your secondary damage source can be another way to go around Cyno's deck, especially on instances where you're pushed against the wall and had to choose between healing or attacking.
