Finger Mountains and Seas is a strategy card game with a Chinese style theme. This type of game generally involves the development and combination of cards. Some players want to know what lineup zero-spend or low-spend casual players should use. Here, we bring you the recommended lineup for Finger Mountains and Seas with zero spending. In fact, even the rarest cards in this game have ways to obtain them, so it's not difficult to put together a lineup; it just takes more time to fully develop them.
Hou Yi System:
Hou Yi is currently the most suitable core damage dealer for casual players. His biggest advantage lies in the fixed damage mechanism, which is unaffected by attribute suppression, ensuring stable damage output. The strong point is that after reaching 5 stars, he unlocks the Heavenly Fate three skills, allowing him to frequently attack normally in conjunction with his teammates' "flank" mechanism, dealing stable damage. For casual players, he can be stably used after reaching 7 stars, and 9 stars are not a must-have.
The "flank" teammates paired with him are very crucial. Ying Zheng: Stable flanking, 5 stars plus Heavenly Three is enough, simple to operate, sufficient for PVE without additional investment. Dragon Girl: Usable at 3 stars in the early stages, helps Hou Yi trigger flanking by controlling the enemy's positioning. After upgrading to 5 stars, her energy reduction significantly improves the feel, and she has a 0-cost, no-cooldown ultimate, making her an excellent support character. 7 stars can be a subsequent cultivation goal.
Pixiu: High strength as a purple card, the skill books given in the early stage, once upgraded to Heavenly Four and Five, make it very useful with low operational difficulty. Jiang Ziya: Average effect in the early stages, but can play a role in Boss battles at high stars, though the investment is slightly large. Meng Po: Although a flanking character, she heavily relies on the "Full Shore Red Flowers" state and has a turn gap period. Not recommended as a main cultivation target.
For team composition, it is suggested to choose Hou Yi as the core damage dealer, with Ying Zheng, Dragon Girl, and Pixiu as supporting flankers, along with a stable healer, forming an efficient fixed-damage output lineup. This is applicable to most PVE scenarios and has relatively low cultivation costs.
Jinwu System:
Jinwu is another main approach in later PVE, relying on the detonation mechanism of the "burning" state, making it a high-burst character. Jinwu's mechanism is to add burning through normal attacks, then trigger "Flowing Light" to complete the state detonation. This mechanism can work in tandem with Hanba, delivering a composite damage of "weakening + burning + detonation." Jinwu's advantage lies in its self-acceleration ability (line pulling), which can be combined with the flanking mechanism, starting from 3 stars, fully usable at 5 stars, with energy cost reduction.
However, the Jinwu system also has some obvious disadvantages. The burning addition is not 100% hit, and when encountering suppressive attributes (such as blue), the failure of burning leads to a broken detonation chain, causing a significant drop in damage; it relies on Hanba's weakening detonation mechanism, which cannot do without teammate cooperation; when the hit rate is insufficient, it is prone to mistakes, especially in PVP against high-evasion enemies.
Therefore, the recommended team for Jinwu is as follows: Hanba: A key联动角色，“衰弱”不可驱散、不可免疫，能显著削弱敌方攻击与闪避，是金乌引爆机制的核心辅助；狐狸：7星后天三可以提供稳定灼烧，是优秀的“打火机”；龙女/嬴政：作为兼容性夹击辅助角色，也能加入金乌队伍；西施：负面状态加成核心角色，提供额外回合与减能效果，是后期金乌体系高层通关的关键。
金乌的发挥高度依赖“不上克制”“命中达标”的前提，因此建议玩家至少保证金乌5星以上配合旱魃使用，逐步补足命中与控制链。若资源不足或命中机制不能完善，还是建议优先发展更稳定的后羿体系。
Auxiliary and Functional Card Recommendations
In addition to core damage dealers and flanking characters, stable auxiliary roles are indispensable in PVE. White Snake: Ultimate reduces energy, increases attack and decreases defense, an excellent supplementary role during energy scarcity, usable from 3 stars, and very effective at 5 stars. Xi Shi: Strong negative status support, 5 stars plus Heavenly Three is a core shortcut. Wu Xian: Purification + resurrection healer, very practical in the early stages when healing is scarce.
Chang'e: The strongest casual healer. Normal attacks heal all, ultimate revives, and requires a mid-position, good adaptability. Can be used at 5 stars, obtainable through check-in and level completion card pool selections, the first choice for a high-value healer. Xiao Qian: Extremely strong in PVP, the extra turn mechanism and resistance-ignoring dispel are very practical, offering great value among light and dark cards, and can also serve as a countermeasure card in PVE. An Nan: Suppresses Kunpeng, has a line-cutting mechanism and group damage interruption, performs well in some special PVE levels.
Thus, the zero-spend lineup for Finger Mountains and Seas basically revolves around the Hou Yi system and the Jinwu system. The Hou Yi system is characterized by steady development, high fault tolerance, and no need for suppression, suitable for most dungeons and resource acquisition scenarios. The Jinwu system features high burst and great potential, suitable for high-level Boss and elite battles, but has higher requirements for positioning, hit rate, and suppression relationships.
