Shikanoin Heizou is one of the characters that can work well with other 4-star characters. It might make him very popular. Heizou deals swirl damage with normal attacks if you use an off-field sub-DPS character. Xingqiu is one of the best options as he applies a shield, heals and what is very important he gives off-field Hydro ability that applies Hydro every time your active Genshin character performs a normal attack. Fischl has an elemental skill that places a crow that deals Electro damage to nearby enemies. That is good for Swirl and Charge effects. Bennett provides heal & additional attack stat for the whole team while inside the AOE of his elemental burst.
Good characters for this comp: Yelan, Mona, Xiangling, Raiden Shogun, Yae Miko, Kuki Shinobu, Beidou, Sangonomiya Kokomi, Jean.
