How To Beat Maguu Kenki In Genshin Impact TCG
To beat the Maguu Kenki in Genshin Impact TCG, players have to first get rid of the Nobushi before focusing their hits on the Maguu Kenki.
Maguu Kenki Talent Overview
Maguu Kenki in the Tavern Challenge has its Talent card equipped. This card allows the boss to switch Genshin Impact characters after it casts its Anemo or Cryo summon. Casting the Anemo version will change the active character to the next unit, while Cryo will swap to the previous unit.
The boss also has a special status called Terrormask’s Return. This will make Maguu Kenki the active character in the End Phase.
Combat Pattern
Maguu Kenki always starts the first round this way:
Nobushi’s Elemental Skill (Electro on Normal Mode, Pyro on Hard Mode) Maguu Kenki’s Normal Attack (Physical DMG)
Afterward, the next turn will go this way:
Maguu Kenki’s Anemo Skill Nobushi’s Normal Attack Nobushi’s Normal Attack
The third round will go like this:
Maguu Kenki’s Cryo Skill Nobushi’s Burst (this takes two turns to charge, so make sure to defeat the Nobushi before it’s done charging) Nobushi’s Normal Attack
Then, assuming players defeated the Bursting Nobushi, the fourth round will be done this way:
Maguu Kenki’s Elemental Burst in Genshin Impact. Maguu Kenki’s Normal Attack Nobushi’s Elemental Skill (Electro on Normal Mode, Pyro on Hard Mode)
Each Nobushi will only move once, and the enemy’s team will keep switching between each other. Because of this, actions that force the enemy to switch like Overloaded will not affect them too much.

Best Team To Beat Maguu Kenki In Hard Mode
Unlike the Normal Mode, Maguu Kenki’s Hard Mode is actually less demanding and easier to defeat. Players can use Genshin Impact Fischl and Oceanid to Electro-Charged the Nobushi, then use Bennett to solo the Maguu Kenki.
Since the enemy will keep switching between their characters, it’s best if players take it slow and don’t fast switch unless necessary.
