A surprising Genshin Impact leak has surfaced, showcasing the combat potential of the highly anticipated character Skirk when paired with Escoffier and the Hydro Archon, Furina. As with every major update, Genshin Impact enters a beta phase where testers explore new characters, weapons, and regions before their official release.

While HoYoverse hasn't officially confirmed Skirk's arrival, multiple leaks strongly suggest she will become playable in Version 5.7. Alongside her, players can anticipate the introduction of Dahlia, a new 4-star character rumored to complement Skirk's abilities.

A recent leak from the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit showcases Skirk's gameplay in a team featuring Dahlia, Escoffier, and Furina. While damage numbers from beta servers should be taken with caution, the footage clearly demonstrates Skirk's remarkable synergy with Escoffier. The Fontaine chef enhances Skirk's elemental damage output, making her an ideal support partner.

Many players who initially hesitated to pull for Escoffier are now reconsidering, as her C0 version appears to be Skirk's perfect companion. Contrary to speculation about Skirk introducing a new element, leaks confirm she will wield Cryo in Genshin Impact.

The leaked video highlights a team composition focused on triggering Frozen, one of Genshin Impact's most crowd-control-heavy elemental reactions. Enemies remain immobilized for extended periods, showcasing why Frozen teams remain popular among players.

As expected, Furina emerges as the optimal Hydro support, providing damage buffs while her Salon Members maintain off-field pressure. Some theorists suggest the team could be further optimized by replacing Dahlia, but the footage effectively demonstrates her compatibility with Skirk - particularly relevant as they'll likely share a Genshin Impact banner.

Based on HoYoverse's update schedule, Skirk and Dahlia should debut in the first banner cycle of Genshin Impact Version 5.7, expected to launch around mid-June. This update promises to introduce exciting new content beyond just characters, including potential developments in the Natlan storyline.
