Recently, which general cards have been getting a lot of attention in the game "Code Kill"? If you want to know about the recently released cards, then in this article, I will introduce a card that has been updated in the Western Han faction's lineup. How good is Chen Ping in "Code Kill"? This is a question many players have asked after the card was updated. However, the reviews for this card are polarized: some love it, while others think it's a useless card. So, what unique skills does Chen Ping have that lead to such mixed reviews? You can find out below.
Chen Ping's first skill, "Hang Mat as Door," activates when his number of hand cards is the lowest on the field. He then gains defensive capabilities, making him unable to be targeted by other players' tactic cards. Additionally, after other players play a tactic card, Chen Ping can obtain a copy of that card. This effect allows him to expand his hand card resources.
The second skill, "Six Ingenious Plans," is a responsive effect that can only be used once per turn. If at this time, the player's number of hand cards or health points is the lowest on the field, he can choose to add 1 exclusive tactic card to his hand and play it immediately. This skill seems to provide Chen Ping with a means of counterattack in difficult situations, but in actual gameplay, there are many restrictions. For example, in the military eight-player mode, the randomness of the exclusive tactics is high, and their strength often isn't enough to sway the battle. In the 2v2 mode, using this skill requires wasting a teammate's opportunity to attack, which is a relatively high cost. Moreover, the exclusive tactics cannot be used on himself, meaning Chen Ping must rely on the presence of teammates to make this skill effective. Once a teammate dies, he will be in a very passive situation. This is one of the important reasons why some players think Chen Ping performs poorly in actual combat.
Chen Ping's other skills also have their own characteristics. For instance, "Donate Gold and Sow Discord" allows him to give this card to another character, causing 1 point of damage to a target chosen by the player. When used at the right moment, this skill can create internal conflicts within the enemy camp. "Evil Grass Proximity" and "Night Escape from Xingyang" can each force another character to randomly discard 2 dodge or slash cards, providing some counteraction against the enemy's key defense or attack cards, especially in response scenarios. Although the effects are somewhat uncertain, they can still cause some disruption to the enemy.
"Tiptoe and Stabilize Heart" allows other targets to exchange cards, so it's crucial to identify the factions correctly when using it. "Wandering in Yunmeng Marsh" is similar to a designated "Fox Cry," allowing another character to randomly obtain 2 cards from a character with cards, chosen by the player. In clear-cut combat situations, this skill is often used frequently and holds significant tactical value. "Escape from White Mount" prevents another character from being targeted by slashes until the start of their next turn, effectively alleviating pressure on teammates, especially when they become the focus of the enemy's attacks.
However, Chen Ping's actual performance in the game is not as poor as some players believe. Although the conditions for triggering his skills and the issue of hand card limits may make some players feel that he is prone to getting stuck, the benefits and defensive effects brought by "Hang Mat as Door" cannot be ignored. The condition of having the lowest number of hand cards on the field is not a strict requirement, but rather a safety net design. In the course of the game, hand cards are a resource that is constantly consumed, and managing them reasonably is crucial. When opponents run out of hand cards, they often take bolder actions, while Chen Ping, with fewer hand cards, can gain an advantage through "Hang Mat as Door," copying tactic cards to expand his hand. Even if he has more hand cards, it doesn't mean there are no countermeasures; the key is to adjust flexibly according to the situation.
For the responsive skill "Six Ingenious Plans," although there are some limitations, it is not entirely useless. In actual combat, it should not be compared solely with generals like Ma Chao or the Xuanyuan Sword, but should be considered from the perspective of Chen Ping's overall skill system and team cooperation. For example, when coordinating with teammates, teammates can use slashes to help Chen Ping trigger "Six Ingenious Plans." Additionally, Chen Ping's other skills, such as "Donate Gold and Sow Discord" and "Evil Grass Proximity," can also play a role in combat and are not completely unusable cards.
In the military eight-player mode, Chen Ping has unique advantages when playing as the Lord or Crown Prince. He can use "Hang Mat as Door" to protect himself and cooperate with teammates through other skills to disrupt the enemy's layout. The card "Unbreakable" can also be more valuable in Chen Ping's hands, as he can use it immediately after obtaining it, and under certain conditions, he can ignore it, enhancing his flexibility in both defense and offense. Additionally, features like full magic resistance at low health and the ability to reclaim used tactics on the field provide Chen Ping with more opportunities for survival and counterattacks. The three-choice option after being attacked, although involving some luck, can offer substantial benefits in favorable circumstances, providing Chen Ping with the possibility of turning the tide in battle.
So, how good is Chen Ping in "Code Kill"? It depends on how you see it. While Chen Ping has some easily criticized flaws, such as needing low health or low hand cards to activate his skills, if players can deeply understand his skill mechanics, they will find that Chen Ping's actual performance in the game is much stronger than imagined, and not just a "static white" or the new generation "prison king."
