Understanding Ying Abilities and Skills
Spear Will- Sweeping Fire (Passive): Yun Ying can communicate with the divine weapon “Sweeping Fire” through her thoughts. Every time she releases a skill, she gains a layer of Spear Intent. Using a basic attack will consume all Spear Intent, releasing corresponding Spear Intent skills: 【One Stack- Stalwart Peacemaker】, 【Tow Stacks: Zealous Devastation】, and 【Three Stacks-Zenith Wildfire】. This will also reduce the cooldown of 【Moonslash】 and 【Cloud Chaser】 by 1.5 seconds. Spear Intent skills cannot critically strike and are affected by 15% attack speed.
Cooldown: 0s Cost: 0
Tips: It’s recommended to turn off automatic basic attacks when using Yunying. The three layers of Spear Intent skills correspond to close/mid/long-range attack distances. Be flexible in choosing and using these skills, and insert Spear Intent skills during combos.
Moonslash (Skill 01): Yunying thrusts her spear forward, flicking upwards and then slashing downwards. The upward flick can cause a 0.5-second knock-up, dealing 100/115/130/145/160/
175 (+50% physical attack) physical damage per hit.
Cooldown: 9s Cost: 45
Tips: This skill has a long-range instant control effect. Try to hit enemies accurately.
Cloudchaser (Skill 02): Yunying charges her spear, gaining a maximum increase of 30%/32%/34%/36%/38%/40% movement speed. At the end of the charge, she dashes forward and sweeps, dealing 80/110/140/170/200/230 (+50% physical attack) to 160/220/280/340/400/460 (+100% physical attack) physical damage and a 30% slow for 1 second. The longer the charging time, the higher the acceleration, the farther the dash, and the greater the damage.
Cooldown: 10/9.8/9.6/9.4/9.2/9s Cost: 40
Tips: The longer the charge time for the 2nd skill, the higher the displacement and damage. Use it first when trying to catch enemies.
Starburn (Ultimate): Yunying ignites the “Starburn” on her spear tip, dashing back and forth in a forward area, dealing 70/140/210 (+55% physical attack) physical damage and knocking up enemies with each hit. When dashing to the farthest point, she will stab 4 times in a row, each time dealing 35/70/105 (+27% physical attack) physical damage. During the skill, she is in a super armor state and reduces the damage received by 10%/40%/70%. Activate the second stage of the skill [Roar Day], swinging “Starburn” forward and sweeping while leaving a trail of fire that lasts for 3 seconds. The sweep deals 70 (+55% physical attack) physical damage, and the fire trail deals 30 (+10% physical attack) magic damage every 0.2 seconds.
Cooldown: 40/37.5/35s Cost: 100
Tips: The ultimate skill can pull distant enemies back, providing long control and high damage, facilitating follow-up combos. Aim accurately.

Countering Ying
Mai Shiranui
Shiranui Mai’s high burst and continuous control make it easy for Yunying to be quickly killed and unable to execute her combos.
Marco Polo
Marco Polo’s agility makes it difficult for Yun Ying’s skills to land accurately.
Counterplay Tips
Pay attention to Yunying’s Spear Intent skill types and dodge her ultimate skill whenever possible. Dealing burst damage can also significantly counter Yunying.
Battle Tips for Ying
It is recommended to turn off automatic basic attacks when using Yunying. The three layers of Spear Intent skills correspond to close/mid/long-range attack distances. Be flexible in choosing and using these skills.
Use the 2nd skill to engage, then the 3rd skill to provide long-range initial control. Use the 1st skill as a control supplement, True Intent as an execution method, and Unyielding Intent and Sharp Intent as close-range combat and harassment tactics.
Recommended combos: 2-A-1-A-3-A-3-A, 2-1-A-3-3-A-2-1-A, 2-3-1-A-2-3-1-A.
