Dislyte Xuan Pin Point War Cleave Team and Speed Guide

To run an effective Xuan Pin cleave team in Dislyte Point War, you must tune her speed to act immediately after your Action Point (AP) pusher and directly before your primary damage dealers. Xuan Pin functions as an offensive force multiplier whose third ability grants Xiangqi enhancements to allies and applies vulnerability to enemies, allowing your burst units to wipe enemy teams on turn one.

Turn Order and Speed Calibration

Speed tuning determines whether a cleave offense succeeds. Xuan Pin should not be your fastest unit, nor should she trail your damage dealers. If she moves before your AP pusher, her gear stat requirements become excessively difficult. If she moves after your damage dealers, your nukers waste their strongest attacks without her offensive modifiers.

Use the following turn sequence:

AP Pusher or Speed Lead (Tiye, Unas, or Dhalia): Acts first to secure turn priority, push allied AP forward, or reduce enemy AP.
Buffer and Enabler (Xuan Pin): Deploys her third ability to distribute Xiangqi pieces across your squad and debuff enemy targets.
Secondary Controller or Stripper (Ethan or Gaius): Removes enemy Immunity buffs, dispels shields, or inflicts Ability Lock to neutralize counter-attack passives.
Primary Damage Dealer (Leora, Tevor, or Ashley): Fires high-multiplier area-of-effect or single-target burst skills while empowered by Xiangqi pieces to eliminate the enemy squad.

Xiangqi Buff Synergy in Cleave Offenses

Xuan Pin’s kit distributes chess pieces that dictate how damage dealers interact with defensive teams.

Xiangqi Buff	Tactical Role	Optimal Pairing
Soldier	Increases damage dealt and ignores a portion of enemy defense.	Primary AoE nukers attempting turn-one team wipes.
General	Amplifies Attack and triggers pursuit assist attacks.	Single-target snipers and execution-based damage dealers.
Cannon / Chariot	Enhances critical strike performance and hit scaling.	Multi-hit attackers breaking through shields and damage caps.
Horse	Provides speed acceleration and turn meter manipulation.	Secondary controllers maintaining combat tempo.

Point War Team Compositions

Depending on the defensive lineup you face, configure your Xuan Pin offense into one of two setups:

Speed Cleave Blitz

Role: Defeating rival speed teams and balanced squads.
Core Setup: Xuan Pin paired with a speed lead (such as Tiye or Ethan) and rapid AoE nukers (such as Ashley or Gaius).
Execution: Ashley's passive adds true damage when allies land critical strikes, synchronizing with Xuan Pin’s offensive pieces to overwhelm targets before they take a turn.

Targeted Execution Core

Role: Breaking heavy tank defenses featuring high-HP units, revivers, or mitigation passives like Cecilia, Hyde, or Lian.
Core Setup: Xuan Pin paired with high-impact single-target or reset-capable damage dealers (such as Tevor or Raven).
Execution: The General buff calls frequent pursuit attacks, allowing reset-dependent snipers to trigger execution passives and eliminate durable threats one by one without triggering shared damage mechanics.

Overcoming Defensive Obstacles

High-tier Point War defenses deploy specific mechanics designed to survive turn-one burst damage:

Stand-off and Survival Passives: When facing Espers that survive lethal blows, ensure your buff stripper or a multi-hit attacker acts immediately after Xuan Pin to strip defensive statuses before the enemy counter-attacks.
Contested Speed Matchups: If rival speed leads threaten to contest the first turn, run Ethan or high-base-speed openers alongside your primary pusher to retain turn priority.
High Effect Resistance: Equip your controllers and strippers with sufficient Accuracy to guarantee dispel effects and AP reduction land before your nukers strike.
