Version 4.4 is already more than half over. With the official release of the brand-new DPS Himeko · Nova, and the new Fate collaboration strengthening the previous Fate collaboration characters, the mainstream top-tier team comps have once again been reshuffled. Today we bring you the current top 5 team comps of version 4.4 — let's see if they meet your expectations.

TOP 5: Remembrance Team

Castorice + Evernight / Mortenax Blade + Cyrene / Tribbie + Hyacine

Evernight + Cyrene + Trailblazer (Remembrance) + Hyacine / Tribbie / Pela

Currently, the mainstream Remembrance teams are mainly divided into two routes: Castorice-led and Evernight-led. Among them, the Castorice Remembrance team focuses on mid-to-high-cost builds, while the Evernight Remembrance team focuses on mid-to-low-cost builds. However, regardless of which team, under the targeting of the current version's meta, the main DPS basically requires a baseline configuration of E2S1, and key support characters are best to have a certain level of cost as well, in order to achieve decent results.

Yet, if you can assemble the 16-cost complete Remembrance Team, it can still dominate the current meta. As a team built since version 3.2, it has shone brightly for over a year and still possesses such terrifying cross-content capability.

TOP 4: Himeko Train Team

Verdict Team: Himeko • Nova + Sunday / Trailblazer (Remembrance) + Sparkle / Mortenax Blade / Tribbie + Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae / Huohuo

Decimation Team: Himeko • Nova + Welt Yang + Mortenax Blade / Tribbie / Sparkle + Huohuo

As the newly released summer flagship DPS, Himeko's numbers and effects are undoubtedly explosive, and the environment is unquestionably "all green lights." Ignoring Weakness Toughness reduction and her unique damage-dealing method means that her cross-element combat capabilities will not be weak in the future.

However, this team desperately needs Trailblaze Companions as teammates. Its current strength only proves its extremely high overall quality. Next, Trailblazers who have pulled Himeko • Nova can still confidently enjoy several patches. As for the future — the future can be looked forward to.

TOP 3: Evanescia Elation Team

Evanescia + Yaoguang + Trailblazer (Elation) + Huohuo

The Elation team-formed by the second-half flagship of version 4.2 has near-dominant performance at low-to-mid cost levels. For most players' setups, Evanescia's overall performance can even rank first in the current version.

Under the situation where the Elation team environment is all green lights, the mechanical completeness and numerical performance of this team are already nearly the best possible outcome. If there is corresponding after-sales support for the Elation team in the future, this team's strength at mid-to-high cost levels will still not be low.

TOP 2: Mortenax Blade Follow-Up Attack Team

Mortenax Blade + Ashveil + Tribbie + Acheron / Hyacine

This team could actually be ranked first, because the perpetual motion logic is deeply ingrained in people's minds. But putting aside the perpetual motion, this team's environment, numbers, and mechanics are still top-notch in the current version. Teammates mutually buff and recharge each other, dealing damage through a mix of Ultimates and Follow-Up Attacks. This is currently the team that resembles a system team the most, apart from the Remembrance team.

TOP 1: Standard Elation Team

Silver Wolf LV.999 + Yao Guang + Sparxie / Trailblazer (Elation) / Asta + Huohuo / Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae

The standard anniversary flagship team from the first half of version 4.2. Its mid-to-high-cost performance is genuinely strong. The overwhelming numbers and favourable environment somewhat mask the issues of incomplete teammates and flaws in the team's rotation logic.

In fact, these problems can be partially solved through manual operation. There are also plenty of online showcases of low-cost Elation teams achieving high scores — this is a character with a huge gap between skill floor and ceiling. Currently, only an E2S1 Silver Wolf LV.999 is needed to comfortably clear all content. At the same time, if teammates have higher investments, the Sparxie + Yao Guang Elation team can even take one side while Silver Wolf LV.999 takes the other — somewhat similar to the dynamic between Castorice and Evernight. This is also a case of "the strong getting stronger."

Summary

In the current version, Break teams and DoT teams still have consistent environmental support, remaining ever-popular. After the second Fate collaboration, Red A's team has achieved dominance in the low-cost environment that is no less than Evanescia's team, while Saber's team has also received certain reinforcements in the low-cost domain. Mid-cost Phainon teams, Anaxa teams, and the buffed Seele still hold their own in battle.

Now, Honkai: Star Rail has rarely entered a state where a hundred flowers bloom, and everyone's teams can shine. So, what are the five teams in your mind? Feel free to share.
