Can Iluoyi Replace Nana Li? Crimson Team Really Got Stronger?!

Iluoyi is set to officially launch on July 23. It’s finally almost here! Before the new character arrives, the hottest topic in the community is: can Iluoyi replace Nana Li and become the best support for the Crimson team?

Based on current test-server player data, the answer looks like yes!

Iluoyi’s Creation Flower mechanic recently went through a major adjustment — the number of copied Creation Flowers increased from 5 to 12. This change directly pushed her value in the Crimson team above Nana Li’s. There are still a few days left before the final launch, so we can’t say for sure these are the final numbers, but they’re a useful reference for team building!

Creation Flower Comparison: Iluoyi vs. Nana Li

The Crimson team’s damage loop relies heavily on the Everflow reaction triggered by Creation Flowers to restore energy and stack attack buffs. Nana Li originally used her passive to increase Creation Flower attack frequency and was one of the Crimson team’s core supports. But Iluoyi’s new adjustment has completely changed the landscape!

According to TapTap player tests, Iluoyi’s copied Creation Flowers generate the first bloom at 1.05 seconds and the 12th bloom at 12.05 seconds. The Creation Stem disappears at 14.02 seconds, and the interval between flowers is about 1.1 seconds. The detailed comparison is as follows:

ComparisonNana LiIluoyi (new version)
Creation Flower countBase 5 flowers, passive boosts attack frequency12 copied + 5 base = 17 attack instances
Trigger intervalAbout 1.35 sec/triggerAbout 1.1 sec/trigger, more frequent
Everflow stabilityStable 8 triggers within 9 sec, sometimes 10Stable 10+ triggers within 9 sec
UtilityPure damage, no healingHeals the whole team + revives teammates
Damage buffsCreation-based buffsAttack buffs + crit damage bonus + defense ignore

If these are Iluoyi’s final launch numbers, the conclusion is clear: Iluoyi offers far more support value than Nana Li!

She not only provides more frequent Creation Flower triggers — stable 10+ Everflow procs within 9 seconds, compared with Nana Li’s 8-10 — but also covers healing, damage buffs, and revival. That raises both the Crimson team’s forgiveness and its damage ceiling, making her even more pull-worthy!

What Do Crimson Team Players Think? Community Reactions Are Split

At the moment, the community is divided on whether Iluoyi can truly replace Nana Li:

● Supporters: complete mechanics, total domination

Some players point out that Iluoyi has healing and support utility, and her Creation Flower mechanic lets the Crimson team go all out, while Nana Li is basically just "a cannon that makes the Crimson team go all out." Iluoyi’s Reversion state can make 3 teammates enter an invulnerable state, and her Ultimate can even revive characters—features Nana Li simply does not have.

● Skeptics: real performance may fall short

Others worry that "Iluoyi’s Creation Flower attack speed is slow, her energy recharge is slow too, and her Ultimate charge is less stable than Nana Li’s," with some even saying, "Unless she triggers once per second, she’ll always be less stable than Nana Li."

That said, the latest test data shows that a 1.1-second trigger interval is already much faster than Nana Li’s 1.35 seconds. Even if it’s not under 1 second, it’s enough for the Crimson team to consistently trigger 10+ Everflow reactions within 9 seconds!

Recommended Test Team (Crimson Everflow Team)

According to multiple tests, the best setup is:

Crimson (Light main DPS) + Iluoyi (Spirit support) + Yi/Hasol (Phase sub-DPS) + Main Character Zero (Creation utility slot);

Key logic: Light (Crimson) + Spirit (Iluoyi) + Phase (Yi/Hasol) = triple Everflow reaction. Once triggered, Creation Flower hits restore energy for the whole team and speed up Ultimate rotations;

Yi can consistently extend the Delay duration to about 16 seconds, longer than Hasol’s 12 seconds, making the overall performance more stable~


Iluoyi Is Worth Pulling, But Is Your Premium Currency Ready?

Overall, Iluoyi’s brand-new 12-Flower Creation mechanic really gives the Crimson team a qualitative leap. She not only makes Crimson’s Ultimate rotation more stable, but also provides healing, damage buffs, and revival, making her overall value in the Crimson team surpass Nana Li.

If you’re a Crimson player, Iluoyi is very likely a must-pull — her mechanics fit the Crimson team extremely well, and she may even become the final piece of the Everflow team puzzle. And even if you don’t have Crimson, Iluoyi is still a highly versatile support with strong long-term value.

If you don’t have Crimson, Iluoyi is still a highly versatile support and can fit into Creation teams, Spirit attribute quick-swap teams, and other comps. As the game’s first limited S-rank healer/support, her long-term value should be safe.

But here’s the problem: with two limited S-rank banners back-to-back in Version 1.2, the pressure on your premium currency is real!!! To make sure you can pull Iluoyi smoothly when she goes live, planning your top-up in advance is the safer choice~

If you play on the global or Hong Kong/Macau/Taiwan servers, you can consider topping up through a legitimate third-party platform. Kardz is one option. It supports top-ups for KARDZ and uses UID direct recharge, so you don’t need to provide your account password. You can search for "Neverness to Everness" on the official site to check the corresponding premium currency packages and discount info.

Before placing an order, a few quick reminders:

● Confirm your server: make sure you know whether you’re on the global server or another regional server before ordering to avoid topping up the wrong one.

● Keep your order screenshot: after the transaction, it’s recommended to keep a screenshot for future reference.

● Check after delivery: log in to the game to confirm your premium currency balance, and contact platform support right away if there’s any issue.

Prep your resources in advance, and when Iluoyi goes live on July 23 you can pull her immediately without scrambling at the last minute! Wishing everyone no off-banner pulls, an instant jackpot, and the character you want on the first try!
