Layla is Sumeru’s residential sleepy head and she brings a brand new thicc shield to play with. In today’s video, we’ll be taking a look at how strong her shield is at constellation 0. We also take a look at how much damage she does with both a shield build and a DPS build.

Oops, I used a clip of Rosaria instead of Mona in the Shenhe team at 9:30. Oh well, my point is still the same.
My guess next region is supposed to be hydro we will need cryo to freeze enemies and new characters might need more powerful shield
Liked and subscribed because of the cats in picture⭐
was thinking of using her on a Freeze team…. so Rosaria, Mona, Layla, and for healing Kuki
Well… Hmmm… She's cute tho
Can you do a showdown comparison of Ayato and Childe with Nahida since Childe banner is on and Ayato banner might be around the corner?
Meanwhile i pulled her bc she's kind of ma type of waifu **runs**
Always love watching your videos, thank you for covering Layla!
She's so cute… I want her. But I don't want to pull the 5* on either of the banners, and I've already struggled to find even creative uses for Candace and Dori. Guess I'll hope she finds me off-banner at some point
where klee jump
I don't really consider her shield to be 100% uptime especially compared to Jonlee's. You still need to switch to Layla to recast her shield if she is not on-field and if there's a fatal strike at that moment then it's byebye lol.
Another visually stunning character with a great personality but easily overshadowed by a mid kit, just like Candace. 11/10 design but barely brings anything to the table but hey, Jenshin is an easy game, so Why would Hoyo give a damn. Great overall Layla showcase, she's a great character to run around collecting mats or doing daily/quest with kek
I blew through 60 rolls before a single Layla showed up, simply because I like her design. Regarding her performance in teams though… yeah, it's pretty much as everyone else has already said. Underwhelming. I'll likely use her purely out of stubbornness and blind hopium that future updates/characters will somehow make her better (think Kuki).
She lowkey makes melt diluc fully viable, no longer limited to vape is he.
For my double hydro HuTao team, she is perfect !
omg i love ur cat <3 and you 🙂
I like how her melee animations look like Hoyoverse personally slapped the cryo catalyst out of her hand, handed her a sword and told her to figure it out
From what I looked at on her constellations her the stars from her skill and burst doesn’t really do better dmg itself until c6 but c4 gives team normal atk and charged atk dmg buff based off of her hp so there’s that. I do wish one of her constellations made it similar to fischl where could trigger shooting the stars faster
Layla is so meh, that it makes Diona looks like a 5 star. Cant believe mihoyo is making 4 stars worse than another 4 star that does the same or better.
I popped her into my Eula team and she fits perfectly well. She's a better Tenacity support than Zhongli, especially against bosses. I don't like bringing Zhongli everywhere and prefer to diversify my teams so having alternatives is great. Also, I don't play baby characters like Diona. I refuse.
Can you do a Shield comparison video?
I like shielders and if my diona is able to survive tons of stuff tho I don’t like her so I didn’t build her much then layla will absolutely shine while sleeping
I got her for the strong shield, periodical cryo application, 100% tenacity uptime, and with the fav sword she generates more energy for the team than Zhongli.
As a player who has gotten tired of Diona's shield breaking and zhongli's anti energy philosophy, she's a welcomed addition.
Is Layla shield better or Thoma? Since both Thoma e and q give shield?
I know she's mainly a shield support, but i'm surprised she barely does any damage at all.. Kind of sad she isn't better than that 😢
100 pull and I don't get her wtf mihoyo
I hope she's a great support for dehya 😍
I would go for her non interruption shield feature, for the rampaging dehya on field.
As f2p i think im enough with c0 :"v
Cause i need to save more for scaramouche huhu
I only find her useful in the Hutao team cause the cryo application can cause melt by Hutao sometimes and c6 Diano isn't very useful for Hutao.
Has anyone ever used Diona and thought the shield wasnt enough (and was worth trading healing for)? That about sums it up for me, especially when my Diona is already geared and C6 over all the past banners. Only for new players imo.
Was lucky to get her … But wont use her @.@
She have FULL TIME SHIELD
Even Diona don't have it!
poor diona. hutao replace her for better employee who not heal
the fact that she is cyro shielder is kinda a good new for me as yoimiya enjoyer, now i can put layla as shielder, sub dps ganyu, yoi and bennet to which i can enjoy 2 cyro sinergy
i thingk she will be a fun char
just imagine layla xinqiu yoi + beido/fiscl/yelan
comparing a c0 layla to c6 diona, i think i get to skip this
Imagine Layla's C6 is like Fischl's but on Layla's ult. Yoimiya's going to be happy.
What was very important for me is that layla can apply cryo offield with her skill. Which is good for my DPS like razor. Personally I don't have the habit of using my elemental burst unless I have to because I'm not the kind to waste it on overworld enemies when they die with a kazuha E. Considering the only other character who can do this is qiqi (and I don't have qiqi) layla is quite a relief for me
Try layla with chongyun with 4pc blizzard. Real dps layla
Wait no what’s your Eula build? I don’t care about Layla anymore how tf do you hit that 700k?
omg that pyro rwgisvine dodging is what hapoens when you zhongli too much
she's definitely not built for dps but i can get her to a copium sub dps level with a little work. if you want her to do any kind of damage you have to nerf her shield and ignore her burst. her normal and charged attack scale on attack just like any other character. pair her with a decent cryo damage build and chongyun to infuse her sword and she can do 6~8k per normal even at 4/4/4 talents. shes never going to do numbers though lol. good cryo application if you can keep her burst up. basically stronger diona shield + 4* ganyu burst(though the tracking is better than just random drops).
Its sad that the only thing she is even competent at is shielding. I really don't understand why she cannot do more damage. She doesn't heal like Diona which is Diona's second niche behind the shielding. I'm not even saying she needs to do a lot of damage but come on it should be more quite a bit more then she currently does. Classic hoyo move to completely cuck all the new 4 stars and make it so they are only barely decent at 1 thing if that.
How does Layla do with Diluc since he can use his elemental skill 3 times? I was hoping for a forward Melt Diluc, but ICD ruins that yet again. Still, I haven't acquired her to test it out myself :/
Even so, I think it could only possibly work with her at C6, if at all.
Edit: 11:15 wait, are you saying her shield is stronger than Thoma's? You sure?
Layla + Dehya is going to CLAP.
Laya cryo stars + Dehya gravestone pyro attacks = nonstop melt reactions.
The pain of freezer burn will be epic.
Sounds like a solid 4 star to me. She's a cryo shielder with solid cryo application; decent particle generation and a very good shield. Nothing groundbreaking, but she fits well into the current roster.
I think she'll be especially good in fridge teams, as Zhongli isn't ideal there. Particularly bloom-fridge. dendro+2*hydro+Layla, or dendro+hydro+sucrose+layla. Depends how her stars behave in AOE. Shame her personal damage isn't higher, though.
She's also (like Candace) probably a good elemental applier for Diluc and Bennet's reaction carries.
Actually, if her cryo-application is slow enough, she may just be able to melt off of burning… So Nahida, Bennet, Layla, flex?
Your Eula clip is just pure flex.
Can we stop comparing any shield char to zhonli
Not every one has hom
