Unsurprisingly, this feature is carried even to the more trivial part of the game. For example, when players are playing Pokemon with Fungi in the Fabulous Fungus Frenzy event, Elemental Reaction is involved in the gameplay. In the card game of Genius Invokation TCG, Elemental Reaction is also a major part of the game mode, so it’s crucial that players get familiar with all of them.

List Of Elemental Reactions In Genshin Impact TCG
To summarize, this is how each Elemental Reactions work in Genshin Impact TCG.
The following table shows Reactions where the order of the Elements doesn’t matter, meaning players can swap Element 1 and Element 2 freely:
Meanwhile, as players can’t apply Anemo and Geo on enemies, the order of the following Genshin Impact TCG Elemental Reactions can’t be swapped. Swirl and Crystallized can only occur if the enemy previously has Cryo, Hydro, Electro, or Pyro attached on them.
How Do Elemental Reactions Work In Genshin Impact TCG?
In Genshin Impact TCG, Elemental Reactions will occur if players hit a card with two different Elements. Most playable cards deal Physical DMG on their basic attack and Elemental DMG on their Skill and Burst, but there are a few exceptions. For example, Catalyst characters in Genshin Impact always deal Elemental DMG even on their basic attack. Some monsters, like the Oceanid, also deal Elemental DMG on their basic attack.
After hitting an enemy with Elemental DMG, the Element will be applied on them (except Anemo and Geo). Then, if players hit the affected enemy with a reactive Element, Elemental Reactions will occur.
Let’s say players hit a card with Diluc’s Skill and apply Pyro. Afterward, the same character is hit by Hydro via Xingqiu’s Skill in Genshin Impact. Pyro + Hydro creates Vaporize, which increases Xingqiu’s Skill DMG by 2.
The attached Element won’t disappear on its own, but players can also utilize Elemental cleansing in Genshin Impact TCG. To cleanse, simply use character Skills that self-apply a reactive Element.
For example, if players’ card is affected by Pyro in Genshin Impact, they can remove it with Hydro using Xingqiu’s or Barbara’s Skill. Just be careful with this mechanic as self-application also opens the road for the enemy to trigger Elemental Reactions.
Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
