Genshin Impact update 1.1 provides us with very good support from the start in the person of Diona. This cute healer will drive your enemies crazy, and bring durability to your whole team. This cryo archer will undoubtedly very quickly become the queen of kiting on the MiHoYo game. She can slow and freeze her enemies, then very easily reposition herself while harassing her enemies from a distance. It is also a battery to recharge the energy of your characters and it is in this role that you will like to play it.
Its very large AOEs will also provide you with a good basis for preparing elemental reactions in shambles!

To play alongside:
Diluc
Diona will be happy to support a Pyro attacker of choice. Diluc is obviously the most suitable here, and can very easily proc the effects of Melt on frozen targets which will considerably increase its damage.
Ayaka
Ayaka is a DPS that will go perfectly with Diona since they share the Cryo element, which grants access to Cryo Resonance, but Diona will also provide Ayaka with energy. Of course, Diona will also heal this DPS.
Of course, these characters are only examples and do not constitute all of the playable characters with Diona, but just a small representation of what you can do. Your imagination will allow you to create your own teams and test according to your preferences.
