First Half UP: Soukaku Youye
Character Analysis
Youye is the second limited S-tier support, specializing in Disorder teams, unlike the more general-purpose Yao Jiayin. She significantly boosts all aspects of Disorder comps:
Stats: increases attack, Disorder build-up efficiency, and damage for Disorder and Disorder-overload (Disorder + Break).
Mechanics: her staining mechanic helps lower-tier Disorder characters build stacks faster, improving team synergy.
Major Disorder DPS—Luna Yuecheng and Jian—benefit most from Youye. Anby, while a direct-damage DPS, sees much faster stack build-up with her, achieving impressive gains.
Plus, Youye pairs perfectly with Alice in the second half, solidifying her role in top meta compositions.
Pull Advice
Support picks are limited in Zenless, making Youye a must for any Disorder comp. She outdoes Yao Jiayin and adds flexibility to your roster.
➡️ Recommendation: ★★★★★ (Must-pull)
If you don’t even have a Disorder DPS yet, hold off—you won’t benefit much without them.
Second Half UP: Alice
Character Analysis
Another physical Disorder DPS—but rather than a direct-damage route like Jian, Alice follows a physical Break-focus similar to Luna Yuecheng. Her Polarized Break and Break-ignoring mechanic put her above Jian in raw strength.
However, with Vivian's introduction and the first-half rerun of Anby Demara, both Jian and Piper have received power boosts. Given limited Polychromes, deciding whether to spend on Alice is tough.
Pull Advice
If you haven’t pulled a physical Disorder DPS yet and have the budget, Alice is a strong pick as your counter to physical compositions.
➡️ Recommendation: ★★★☆☆ (Optional)
Already have Jian, Piper—or don’t have Anby yet? Focus on Youye and Anby first; leave Alice for later.
First Half Rerun: Anby Demara
Character Analysis
The sole virtual-hunter DPS, Anby remains top-tier. Her hybrid build lets her excel in both Disorder and Break teams. Even in Season 2, she outshines main DPS like Yixuan from 2.0.
Pull Advice
For those without Anby, definitely aim for a 0+1 pull setup. She’s potent with Luna, Vivian, or Break compositions. If you have multiple Disorder DPS, get Youye first, then Anby, but Anby remains a must-pull DPS.
➡️ Recommendation: ★★★★★ (Must-pull)
If you’re budget-limited, 0+1 for Anby is enough—she carries beyond that. Need stronger stack gains? Consider Youye later.
Second Half Rerun: Luna Yuecheng
Character Analysis
Luna is a versatile Disorder DPS, perfect as a main or off-DPS, even allowing double-support setups. While not always mandatory, she’s flexible and cost-effective.
Pull Advice
If you’re missing Vivian or Bernice but plan to get Anby or Alice, Luna makes a strong secondary DPS. But if you only need a main Disorder DPS, focus on Anby and Alice first—this is a highly contested banner, so limit Luna to a backup role.
➡️ Recommendation: ★★★☆☆ (Optional)
Summary & Pull Priority
All four UP units are top-tier for Disorder teams in 2.1.
Soukaku Youye is essential for every Disorder composition.
Anby Demara remains one of the strongest main DPS.
Alice and Luna Yuecheng are excellent but slightly lower priorities.
Pull Order Recommendation:
0+1 Anby Demara (main DPS)
0+0 Soukaku Youye (support)
0+1 Alice (main DPS)
2+1 Anby Demara (extend Anby stack +1)
0+0 Luna Yuecheng (flex DPS)
💡 If you don’t lack Disorder DPS, prioritize Youye first.
