Lisa vs Keqing
Defense-shredding librarian vs. the fast-paced Yuheng of Liyue
TL;DR — Quick Pick
Pick Lisa if…
- When you need DEF shred for a specific physical or electro carry
- When running a team that can protect her long Skill charge time
- When you want to utilize the Widsith or Hakushin Ring
Pick Keqing if…
- When playing Aggravate teams (with Nahida/Fischl)
- When you want a high-mobility, fast-attacking Main DPS
- When you need a character with low burst energy requirements
Keqing is a vastly superior Main DPS, especially in Dendro-Aggravate teams, while Lisa finds a niche as a specialized Sub-DPS or DEF-shredding support. Use Keqing for damage and Lisa for her unique utility or starter-team needs.

Shared Team Members
With Lisa
Fischl acts as a battery for Lisa, generating the Electro particles needed to maintain high uptime on her 80-cost Burst. Additionally, her coordinated attacks with Oz add significant off-field damage to Lisa's rotation.
With Keqing
Fischl is Keqing's best Aggravate partner, as Keqing's rapid Electro procs constantly trigger Fischl's 'Undone Be Thy Sinful Hex' passive. This creates a feedback loop of massive Electro damage and particle generation.
With Lisa
Nahida's massive EM buff from her Burst directly increases the damage of Lisa's Aggravate reactions and Skill stacks. Her Tri-Karma Purification also provides the consistent Dendro aura required to keep the Quicken state active for Lisa.
With Keqing
Nahida provides the highest quality Dendro application for Keqing, ensuring that every slash of her Burst triggers an Aggravate reaction. The EM bonus from Nahida's Burst also scales Keqing's reaction damage without requiring EM substat investment.
