Valeriy's Best Team in Genshin Impact 7.2

Valeriy enters Genshin Impact 7.2 as an Electro shielder, and his strongest listed lineup is Valeriy + Mitya + Yae Miko + Odette. For players tracking latest genshin-impact updates, the takeaway is straightforward: Valeriy is a sustain slot that also pushes Electro damage rather than a pure defensive pick.

Why This Comp Works

The core logic is layered Electro support. Valeriy supplies the shield and a flat DMG bonus for Electro hits, while Mitya and Yae Miko provide the Electro offense the buffs are meant to amplify. Odette rounds out the team as the fourth slot in the source composition.

His constellation value is unusually front-loaded for a support:

  • C2: grants Elemental Mastery (EM)
  • C6: grants Crit Rate and Electro Stellar-Conduct Crit DMG

That makes Valeriy's ceiling relevant to Stellar-Conduct teams specifically, not just generic Electro comps. Exact scaling values are not stated in official materials.

Testing Notes and Consensus

No official damage calcs or clear-speed data for this comp have been published. Treat the lineup as the source-listed best team, not a verified speedrun standard. Rarity, weapon type, and exact banner phase for Valeriy remain unconfirmed as of the 7.2 reveal cycle.

Teams and Synergies

Core Comp

Slot Character Role
1 Valeriy Electro shield, flat Electro DMG bonus, sustain
2 Mitya Electro offense
3 Yae Miko Electro sub-DPS
4 Odette Fourth slot per source comp

Budget and F2P Path

Valeriy can still support several other Electro DPS units, so players without Mitya or Yae Miko are not locked out. A F2P-viable approach is to keep Valeriy as the shielder and slot in an Electro main DPS you already own. The shield covers survivability; the flat Electro DMG bonus keeps the slot from being dead weight.

Rotation and energy constraints are not stated in official materials. Until community testing lands, plan around Valeriy's shield uptime first and treat his buff window as a bonus rather than a fixed rotation anchor.

Build Notes

Artifact sets, main stats, and ER thresholds for Valeriy are not stated in official materials. What the source does confirm is his support profile:

  • Shield strength is the baseline requirement
  • Flat Electro DMG bonus rewards keeping him in Electro teams
  • C2 EM and C6 Crit Rate / Stellar-Conduct Crit DMG are the constellation breakpoints worth noting

For low-spend players, C0 Valeriy already delivers the shield and Electro bonus. C2 is the first meaningful damage-oriented step; C6 is a luxury target, not a baseline expectation.

Should You Pull?

Genshin Impact 7.2 arrives 2026-11-04, with the Special Program airing 2026-10-23 at 08:00 AM ET (UTC-4). HoYoVerse has confirmed a "huge drop-rate boost" for Valeriy after the November 4 update, but his exact banner phase and rarity are not stated in official materials.

Opportunity cost matters here. 7.2 also brings a Furina rerun and a new Chronicled Wish, per EarlyGG's banner coverage. If you already have a stable shielder, Valeriy's pull value depends on whether you run Electro or Stellar-Conduct teams. If you lack sustain, his shield-plus-buff package is a reasonable pickup — not an obligatory one.

Takeaway

Valeriy is a sustain-first Electro support whose best listed team is Valeriy + Mitya + Yae Miko + Odette. His flat Electro DMG bonus and constellation buffs give him a real offensive role, but exact numbers, build targets, and banner phase are still unconfirmed. Pull if you need an Electro shielder with upside; skip if your sustain slots are already covered and your Primogems are committed elsewhere in 7.2.
