AGenshin Impactchart shows impressive revenue numbers for the previous Limited Character Banner that featured re-runs for Kamisato Ayaka and Shenhe. Character re-runs are a common gacha mechanic that allow players to acquire limited characters they might have missed in the past.
WithGenshin Impact’s pool of playable characters constantly expanding, each banner cycle now includes a double banner that features two five-star characters and three four-stars. The only new character that arrived in the second part of update 3.5 was Mondstadt’s Cryo polearm user Mika.

Reddit user TimocaSamJa has shared an interesting chart that reveals how well the Ayaka and Shenhe double banner did in terms of overall sales. According to the post,the second Limited Character Banner in 3.5took the third spot on the all-time banner revenue list. This came as a surprise to a lot of players who claim that even though they expected the banner to attract sales, they would’ve never guessed that it could squeeze into the top 3 on the list. However, it should be noted that the data shown in the chart only represents iOS devices from the Chinese server which means that the overall sales are even higher.
Banner re-runs have become increasingly popular over the last couple of months which is proven by the fact that the three most successful banners on the list feature re-runs for popular characters. Kamisato Ayaka is considered a powerfulDPS character inGenshin Impactwhose playstyle revolves around dealing Cryo elemental damage. The three go-to team comp types for this character are the Permafreeze, Superconduct, and Mono-Cryo party.
Even though Ayaka is much more popular in the community than her banner colleague, recent revenue reports have revealed thatShenhe actually attracted more sales on this banner. The main reason is likely that this is her first re-run, and she was released way back in update 2.4. Shenhe and Ayaka have great synergy and having both of them on the same team will trigger the Cryo Resonance which increases their Crit Rate potential.
Some fans claim that there is a high chance that the next double banner couldbreakGenshin Impact’s overall revenue record. It will feature the Sumeru Archon Nahida who’s by far the strongest five-star support in the game that uses the Dendro element. She will be joined by the Hydro user Nilou with whom she has great synergy with since they can trigger the famous Bloom elemental reaction.
