As mentioned above, this pick rate data is based on the Spiral Abyss, so this defines strong meta picks people are using to clear high-level floors. It’s a relatively small sample size too ⁠— as while there are over 5,000 participants, Genshin has millions of active players.

It is a good indication of the game’s meta, though. The pick rates also show who is popular, and maybe who you should look at rolling for in upcoming banners (like reruns).

We will update this with each new update, so keep an eye out as one of your favorites could soon become the best pick to choose.

So, there you have it – that’s everything you need to know about Genshin Impact pick rates for update 2.7.
