Sayu
Roles
Support: Healer, Debuffer (VV)
Off-Field DPS (Elemental Burst)
Character Breakdown
Elemental Skill (Tap) makes Sayu roll forward a short distance and then deal Anemo DMG to enemies in front of her.
Elemental Skill (Hold) makes Sayu roll forwards continuously, increasing her resistance to interruption and dealing Anemo DMG while rolling. Using the skill again will cause Sayu to end her roll early and deal additional Anemo DMG to enemies in front of her.
Elemental Skill (Hold) can absorb another element, dealing additional Elemental DMG of the the absorbed element to enemies hit while Sayu is rolling.
Elemental Skill cooldown time creases depending on how long Sayu spends rolling.
Elemental Burst summons a Daruma that deals Anemo DMG to nearby enemies and heals nearby team members. Whether the Daruma heals or attacks enemies depends on whether there are any nearby enemies and the current HP of team members.
Can act as a Debuffer with Viridescent Venerer 4-set.
Additional Notes
C1 removes HP restrictions on Sayu's Elemental Burst and allows the summoned Daruma to heal and attack enemies at the same time.
C4 allows Sayu to recover energy whenever she triggers a Swirl reaction.
C6 allows her to use Elemental Mastery to give an ATK bonus to the Daruma as well as increase the HP restored by the Daruma during the Elemental Burst.
Works Well With
Sayu pairs well with almost all characters in the game as Viridescent Venerer 4-set can debuff Elemental RES on enemies for 4 of the elements (Cryo, Electro, Hydro, and Pyro).
Jean can work in almost any team in the game as a universal Healer.
Does Not Work Well With
Anemo cannot cause Elemental Reactions with Geo and Viridescent Venerer cannot provide debuffing for Geo and Physical DMG characters.
Sayu can still be used with these characters if your team requires healing but will provide little other value.
Teams
This character is a Healer. While some teams are provided below where they are particularly useful, this character can be used on any team provided you do not have better healing options.

In the following teams, Sayu allows Kazuha or Venti to take the role of being a Debuffer with the Viridescent Venerer 4-set and instead provides the team with a Noblesse Oblige 4-set buff alongside her healing.
