Ineffa vs Razor

Modern Electro tactical speed vs. the original Physical wolf

TL;DR — Quick Pick

Pick Ineffa if…

  • When you want to play a modern, reaction-based Electro carry
  • For faster, more dynamic combat rotations
  • In Aggravate teams for better scaling and damage

Pick Razor if…

  • As a budget Physical carry in the early game
  • If you enjoy the 'unga bunga' style of high-impact claymore hits
  • When running a dedicated Superconduct team with Rosaria
Verdict

Ineffa is significantly more powerful in the current meta due to Electro reactions outperforming Physical damage. Razor is a beloved classic, but Ineffa's kit is far more refined and versatile for late-game content.

Shared Team Members

With Ineffa

Fischl provides Ineffa with Electro Resonance and the energy particles needed to maintain her high-uptime shield and turret. Oz's coordinated attacks also help Ineffa maintain constant Electro application for reaction-based teams.

With Razor

Fischl is the essential battery for Razor, generating the Electro particles he needs to keep his Burst active at all times. Her off-field damage from Oz also complements Razor's Physical-heavy playstyle by providing consistent Electro support.
