Piercing Quicken Explanation

Strengths and Weaknesses

Piercing Quicken Deck Combo Cards

Combo Card 1	Combo Card 2	Result
Fischl	Tighnari	- Both Fischl's Elemental Skill and Tighnari's Clusterbloom Arrow are summons that provide the Quicken reaction, making them difficult to deal with if the opponent does not have copies of Guardian's Oath or Send-Off.
Keqing	Tighnari	- Keqing's Lightning Stilleto switches her in as the active character and infuses her Normal Attacks with Electro DMG to help refresh the Quicken buff.
Katheryne	Tighnari	- Katheryne makes switching characters count as a Fast Action and facilitates the need to constantly swap out characters for the Quicken buff.
Tighnari	Gambler's Earrings	- The Gambler's Earrings helps you stay on the offensive because the deck needs to end matches quickly.

How to Play Piercing Quicken Deck

Starting Hand

Recommended Starting Hand
Katheryne	Paimon	Toss-Up	Chang the Ninth

Katheryne is a must keep since you will be switching characters a lot to trigger and make use of the Quicken buff.

As an offensive deck, you will want to keep the aggression up and Paimon can help out with the Omni Element generation.

Toss-Up can help you with staying on the offensive if you get unfavorable dice rolls.

Chang the Ninth provides good value with the card draw from triggering Quicken.

The Combo

Start with Fischl as the initial active character and use her Elemental Skill to apply Electro. Switch to Tighnari and use his Elemental Skill for the Quicken buff and do a Charge Attack to summon a Clusterbloom Arrow. This combo gives you two summons that increase your damage, deal damage between rounds, and keep the Quicken buff up. Keep up the aggression when you have Quicken up.

After the Combo

If you are up against another aggressive deck, heal your characters with Mondstadt Hash Brown. Switch to Keqing if your other characters are low to build up her Energy and use her Elemental Burst to deal Piercing DMG and finish off the opponent's key targets in the backline. Tighnari and Fischl are better off refreshing Quicken but they can also deal Piercing DMG if they can take down important targets.

Piercing Quicken Deck Best Used Against

List of NPCs

Wagner

Shitou

Qiuyue

These NPC cards have low HP pool and no shields which gives you free reign to set up your Quicken buff and quickly take down their characters.

Friendly Fracas

Xingqiu

Ganyu

Yoimiya

These characters have decks that will need time to set up their game plan. As an offensive deck, you just need to keep up the aggression and end the game quickly.

What does this Deck Counter?

Good Against Stall Decks

This deck takes advantage of the Quicken buff to dish out high damage from Electro and Dendro attacks, as well as chip damage in between rounds from the summons Oz and the Clusterbloom Arrow. You can quickly end matches before the opponent has a chance to stabilize and play for the late game.

How to Counter Piercing Quicken Deck: How to Beat

Use Defensive Decks

Mona	Arataki Itto

This deck is weak against defensive decks that have plenty of Shields. Shields severely dampen the damage you deal and nullify the chip damage from your summons.
