For players planning long term progression, Crickex Affiliate style efficiency thinking fits Liuyin perfectly because her value comes from smart stat conversion rather than raw numbers. Liuyin is an S-rank Physical Break unit whose entire kit revolves around converting excess critical rate into Impact, enabling rapid swaps that stack Daze, trigger vulnerability windows, and upgrade ally chain attacks into full ultimates. Her overall investment priority follows a clear order, starting with her core passive, then active skills, followed by her engine, drive discs, and finally team rotation optimization.

Liuyin’s role blends fast break initiation with off-field support. Through managing Praise stacks and empowered special attacks based on rock paper scissors inputs, she rapidly builds Daze while applying extended stagger vulnerability. This setup forces chain attacks and allows teammates to skip directly into ultimate skills, which is where most burst damage comes from. Her design rewards players who enjoy fast decision making and clean rotations, since timing is the name of the game.

Her core passive is the single most important mechanic in her kit. Any critical rate beyond 50 percent is converted into Impact at a one to two ratio, capped at 100 Impact. On top of that, she provides a flat Daze vulnerability bonus, making critical rate her most valuable stat by a wide margin. Praise management also matters, as she enters the field with a base amount and gains more through empowered specials. At three stacks, she can apply Malicious Complaint to extend stagger duration and increase damage while consuming Praise to force chain attacks.

Skill upgrades should follow a strict priority. The core passive must be fully maxed first since it directly controls stat conversion and vulnerability scaling. Empowered special attacks come next, as they drive Daze buildup, debuff application, and Praise generation. Support and ultimate skills enhance damage and rotation flow, while basic attacks can be upgraded modestly for energy recovery when needed. Dodge upgrades are largely unnecessary and can be skipped without consequence.

Engine and drive disc choices reinforce her critical-focused design. The four-piece Mountain King set is considered best in slot due to its critical-to-Impact conversion and teamwide crit damage bonus. Two-piece options favor critical rate first, followed by Impact or energy regeneration. Main stats prioritize critical rate on slot four, physical damage on slot five, and energy regeneration on slot six to maintain smooth empowered special loops.

In team compositions, Crickex Affiliate level consistency shows in fast swap break squads. Liuyin pairs best with burst damage dealers who capitalize on upgraded ultimates, supported by energy regeneration and defense shredding allies. The typical combat loop opens with a triple empowered special sequence to stack Praise and apply debuffs, then swaps into teammates for chained ultimates. In the endgame, Crickex Affiliate minded players who manage stats carefully will find Liuyin delivering reliable control and explosive momentum without missing a beat.
