Han Xin, the legendary general revered as the "Immortal of War" by later generations, possesses extraordinary military talent, which may not be fully apparent in Code: Kill as a card. After all, most players tend to remember standalone characters more. Is Han Xin good in Code: Kill? You should view him as a powerful general card in the game. Han Xin not only has a unique set of skills but also exhibits high flexibility and strategic depth.

Han Xin's initial health is set at 5 points, but his true value lies in his skills. First, let's introduce the first one, Ambush on All Sides. This skill allows Han Xin to place any number of cards from his hand into an ambush state. When another character plays a card, Han Xin can choose to discard an ambushed card with the same name, draw a new card, and immediately play a kill against the target character. This mechanism gives Han Xin more opportunities to act and enhances the effect of the kill.
It's worth noting that this mechanism even allows Han Xin to include equipment cards in the ambush sequence. However, players should be aware that since each equipment card appears only once in the standard deck, if an equipment card is set as an ambush, it cannot trigger related effects again. During the play phase, this high flexibility allows Han Xin to quickly adjust his card layout in battle, making optimal decisions based on the opponent's actions. It is recommended that players use continuous ambushes to suppress the opponent's defenses or use the card-drawing mechanism to replenish hand resources.

Besides Ambush on All Sides, Han Xin's other major skill is called Desperate Battle. The effect of this skill is that when Han Xin is in a dying state, he can choose to discard all his hand cards and draw an equal number of cards from the deck. Then, he can immediately attack any character, dealing massive damage. Here, not only can all hand cards be turned into kills with doubled attack power, but each kill also deals an additional 1 point of damage. Compared to simply playing a single kill card, this skill clearly has higher attack power, although it comes with significant restrictions.
Once these kills successfully hit and deal damage, Han Xin can quickly retrieve these hand cards. However, if the effects of these kills do not work, then those ineffective hand cards will be completely destroyed, and Han Xin himself will suffer a loss of health equal to the number of hand cards. Therefore, this is a skill that turns a desperate situation into a chance for survival. It's important to note that the timing of hand card recovery occurs before damage resolution, so even opponents skilled in seizing opportunities, like Cao Cao, cannot take advantage of this gap to obtain these hand cards and disrupt Han Xin's play effect.

The activation of this skill is not limited by the number of hand cards. Even if you have only one hand card, you can still use Desperate Battle. Of course, if you have no hand cards, then this skill cannot be used. In special scenarios such as frontline duels and raging battles, Han Xin can also activate Desperate Battle, but the kills played at this time are more of a response or trigger mechanism rather than a direct means of damage. Therefore, in these situations, even if the kills can normally trigger various equipment and skill effects, they are unlikely to cause substantial damage to the enemy. So, when using it, you need to carefully observe the ongoing effects of the skill cards on the field.

That concludes our introduction on whether Han Xin is good in Code: Kill. Currently, Han Xin's effects seem to rely more on luck, especially the second skill. If you feel that your hand is not favorable and your health is not advantageous, this skill is actually quite recommended. Used well, this card can be very powerful.
