Jianxin supports Iuno alongside Verina. Iuno can lead her own team. Lynae plus Mornye is the premium hypercarry core; Ciaccona, Yinlin, and Jianxin are documented alternatives, while Aero Rover is the free-form utility route.

Jianxin supports Xiangli Yao alongside Verina. Lynae is Xiangli Yao's strongest general buffer and enables Mornye's full Tune support. Yinlin remains the natural Electro/Liberation alternative; Changli is expert-only quickswap and is not ranked as a normal recommendation.
