Xie Mingzhe has already made ten cards of the Water Margin series. Li Kui, Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Hua Rong, and Yan Qing are all loss cards. Song Jiang protects, Wu Yong controls, Pan Jinlian harvests from a distance, Li Shishi controls and heals the group, and Sun Erniang explodes in the late game.
From the perspective of deck configuration, there is still a lack of some defensive cards. Relying only on the support of Song Jiang, the survivability of the squishy cards is very worrying. Although Sun Erniang can make a human bun for a burst after all teammates die, if Sun Erniang cannot use her skills and is controlled by the opponent, the buns she makes cannot be spread out and all the previous efforts will be wasted.
For the defensive card, Xie Mingzhe thought of Lu Junyi, who ranked second among the 108 heroes.
Lu Junyi was originally a wealthy man with great wealth and fame. Song Jiang admired Lu Junyi's reputation and wanted to invite him to join the team to enhance the reputation of Liangshan. So he sent military advisors Wu Yong and Li Kui to pretend to be fortune tellers, sneak into Lu's house to tell fortunes for him, and also designed to let him write a rebellious poem. In the end, Lu Junyi was tricked into Liangshan and became the second deal of Liangshanpo, and became the first deputy marshal of the governor's army.
This card can be designed as a taunt card to protect teammates. Lu Junyi is a martial arts expert and he is also the military governor of Liangshan. So in terms of skill design, Xie Mingzhe came up with a new idea - summoning soldiers to resist damage.
As the commander-in-chief of the army, Lu Junyi naturally does not need to rush to the front in a fight and protect himself from damage. He can let the soldiers fight in the front while he controls the soldiers from the back.
Most taunt cards are melee meat shields that rush in to absorb ranged damage. This type of "long-range taunt card" is quite rare in the current league, and Xie Mingzhe thinks this idea is worth a try.
As the governor-general of the army, Xie Mingzhe designed Lu Junyi's image by making him wear armor and hold a spear, looking majestic. He also painted him riding a horse to highlight his status as deputy marshal.
Lu Junyi (Gold)
Level: Level 1
Evolution Star Level:★
Use times: 1/1 time
Basic Attributes: HP 1800, Attack 0, Defense 1800, Agility 30, Crit 30%
Additional Skills: Military Governor (As the deputy marshal, Lu Junyi has the responsibility to supervise and command soldiers. He can summon five soldiers at the same time. Each soldier inherits 20% of his health and defense, and follows a teammate according to his instructions within a range of 23 meters. The soldier has a lock-on taunt skill and will help the teammate absorb all damage until he dies. When each soldier dies, Lu Junyi loses 20% of his health and reduces the cooldown time of the "Military Governor" skill by 20%; the cooldown time is 100 seconds)
Additional Skills: Kirin Armor (Lu Junyi can make his summoned soldiers and teammates within a 23-meter radius wear special golden Kirin Armor. The armor lasts for 3 seconds and is immune to any control during its existence; the cooldown time is 45 seconds)
Additional Skills: Fame (Target Skill: Lu Junyi is a famous hero. Enemies cannot bear to attack him and can only attack the soldiers he summons. Lu Junyi himself is not affected by any attack or control skills. If you want to kill him, please kill his soldiers first.)
This card is a summoning taunt card. When Lu Junyi appears on the field, he can summon 5 soldiers to protect 5 teammates. He can also exempt the entire team from control for 3 seconds, allowing teammates to release key skills.
His taunt ability is not as direct as Sun Ce's, but it is more annoying than Sun Ce's range taunt. Sun Ce is just one card, and killing Sun Ce will no longer affect the taunt. Lu Junyi is equivalent to 5 split small taunt cards. The opponent must kill the soldiers one by one to avoid the interference of taunt.
If the five soldiers are scattered everywhere, the enemy's firepower will also have to be dispersed, which makes it difficult for the enemy to focus fire to kill our Key card.
Although the soldier only inherits 20% of the health and defense and is relatively easier to kill, it can block key skills and protect our core output cards to survive, so the soldier has already played the role of a taunt card.
In future team matches, when our output cards are in danger, Lu Junyi will send his soldiers to force taunt to block a wave of damage, and Song Jiang will come to support and block another wave of damage. The eldest and second brothers of Liangshan are worried about the safety of their brothers, and the joint protection of Lu Junyi and Song Jiang can also make our output cards not afraid of sudden death at all, and have better room to display their abilities.
The Lu Junyi card is very useful in individual games, double games and team battles. Of course, it is also difficult to operate, especially in chaotic team battles, where you need to carefully consider how to distribute the five soldiers.
In addition, there are two characters among the Liangshan Heroes who can be made into functional cards.
One is "The Speedy Walker" Dai Zong, who is very fast. It is said that he can travel 800 miles a day. He can be made into an acceleration card, and can assist melee cards such as Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong to move quickly in large-scale team battles.
Dai Zong (Earth)
Level: Level 1
Evolution Star Level:★
Use times: 1/1 time
Basic Attributes: HP 1800, Attack 0, Defense 1800, Agility 30, Crit 30%
Additional Skills: Speedy Walker (Dai Zong is known as the Speedy Walker, and can travel a thousand miles a day. When he activates this skill, all friendly targets within a range of 23 meters will have their movement speed increased by 500% and their attack speed increased by 50%. This skill lasts for 10 seconds and has a cooldown of 20 seconds)
For the professional acceleration card, Xie Mingzhe only made one skill, made the duration longer, and shortened the skill CD.
This card is not very useful in small events, and there is no need to occupy a card slot. However, in the endless mode, where there is no limit on the number of cards, Dai Zong can be used at the right time to accelerate the whole group and launch a surprise attack. When necessary, Dai Zong can also cooperate with Ma Chao, who has the ability to accelerate the team. With two cards accelerating and four wheels driving, see who can catch up!
Another person that Xie Mingzhe wanted to make into a card was Shi Xiu, a person that Xie Mingzhe admired.
Shi Xiu's most classic story was the three attacks on Zhujiazhuang. As the road to Zhujiazhuang was extremely difficult to walk, Song Jiang sent Shi Xiu to explore the way. Shi Xiu not only found out the traps on the road, but also helped Song Jiang, who was trapped in the maze, to successfully break out. Later, he deliberately lost the battle and was captured by the opponent, and entered Zhujiazhuang as an undercover agent - it can be seen that this Shi Xiu is definitely a master at intelligence work.
His skills are also designed as special function cards, targeted at certain teams.
Shi Xiu (Earth)
Level: Level 1
Evolution Star Level:★
Use times: 1/1 time
Basic Attributes: HP 1800, Attack 0, Defense 1800, Agility 30, Crit 30%
Additional Skills: Pathfinder (Shi Xiu is very good at gathering intelligence. When he activates the "Pathfinder" skill, he can automatically search and expose all traps in the scene map, and make all invisible enemy targets within a range of 23 meters appear; cooldown time is 20 seconds)
Additional Skill: Undercover (Shi Xiu pretends to be defeated and deliberately goes undercover among the enemy to gather information. When Shi Xiu becomes an undercover, he can hide in the enemy camp to collect enemy intelligence. All our cards will share the vision detected by Shi Xiu. The invisibility lasts for 20 seconds; the cooldown time is 40 seconds)
This card is very effective in dealing with special scenarios. For example, some clubs particularly like maps with traps. Putting Shi Xiu can expose the traps in the scene map, making the battle clearer. There are also clubs like Hell and Dark City, which have many stealth cards. Put Shi Xiu to investigate, know yourself and the enemy, and then arrange the next tactics.
Of course, Shi Xiu is a functional card that is more suitable for the endless mode. There are not many cards in individual and doubles competitions, so there is definitely no need to bring Shi Xiu out to investigate.
So far, including Wu Song, Xie Mingzhe has made a total of 14 "Water Margin" character cards, covering most of the well-known characters - instant death, taunt, support, treatment, control, output, everything. These cards can appear collectively in team games to lay the groundwork, or you can pick one or two of them to use in small projects. The specific usage still needs actual combat research.
After making so many cards in one day, Xie Mingzhe's mental energy was over-exhausted and he went to bed before 11 o'clock in the evening.
When he woke up the next morning, Xie Mingzhe was full of energy again.
After breakfast, he took a few cards he had made to see his master to see if he wanted to modify or repaint them.
Chen Qianlin had already checked the previous five cards, and there were no major problems. He also patiently checked the next eight cards one by one. Shi Xiu and Dai Zong were both functional cards, with distinct features and simple designs. Chen Qianlin took a look and put them down. Li Shishi was a more traditional group control + group therapy, and there was no problem either...
The key is the three cards Yan Qing, Pan Jinlian and Sun Erniang.
Yanqing relies on Xiaoyin marks to deal damage, so the data calculation is very complicated. After reading it carefully twice, Chen Qianlin made suggestions: "According to your design, one mark is placed per second in the 8-second performance state, and each mark can only exist for 5 seconds. Theoretically, when you hit the 8th mark, the previous mark is gone. I suggest changing the 8-second burst to a 5-second Xiaoyin burst, placing 1 mark per second, for a total of 5, and changing the damage caused by the mark per second from 10% to 15%, which will be smoother in operation."
After careful calculation, Xie Mingzhe suddenly understood and fully approved of his master's reform.
The previous design did have a loophole. If you hit the back, the front mark would be gone, and there would be problems with the joint when killing alone. Now it has been changed. The flute sound lasts for 5 seconds, 1 second to hit 1, 5 seconds to hit 5. From 8×10%, it has become 5×15%, and the total damage has indeed decreased a little, but the problem is that 5 marks can exist at the same time, plus the 2 marks added by the prodigal son, the total is 7.
When Yan Qing goes to kill a card alone, he can quickly stack 7 marks on the card and detonate it within 5 seconds. At the same time, he can also cause a small amount of damage to enemies on the path, achieving the dual purpose of group attack + single kill.
——Fade Sound of the Flutes: Yan Qing enters the performance state, increasing his attack speed for a short period of 5 seconds. He plays a flute once per second, causing 80% wood damage to all enemy targets within a 5-meter melee range, and adds 1 musical mark. Each mark lasts for 5 seconds, causing 15% continuous wood damage per second; cooldown time is 30 seconds)
With this change, you can use it in conjunction with "Return of the Prodigal Son" to kill people instantly.
Chen Qianlin then proposed a modification to Pan Jinlian: "Pan Jinlian refreshes her skills after poisoning the target. Your design idea is to harvest cards, but her skills continue to lose health for 5 seconds after feeding poison. Killing a card in 5 seconds can easily be saved by the opponent's healing skills. You can shorten the time appropriately and increase the output per second - change it to 3 seconds, the rhythm will be much faster."
The 3-second poison kill will obviously speed up in actual combat. Xie Mingzhe naturally knew that the faster the harvesting card, the better. He designed a 5-second buffer period because he was afraid that it would not be approved. Hearing this, he couldn't help but worry, "If it's 3 seconds, won't it be too strong?"
"Appropriately lower your basic attack power. 3 seconds is a more appropriate rhythm. The review should not be difficult for you."
Xie Mingzhe nodded. His master had a deeper understanding of skill data than he did. If his master said there was no problem, then there must be no problem.
Chen Qianlin picked up the last card and his eyes immediately stopped on the skill.
Sun Erniang, the owner of a shady shop and a human meat bun.
He looked at it in silence for a long time, then raised his head and asked Xie Mingzhe a question: "You have never eaten a bun stuffed with human meat, have you?"
"...I'm not that perverted!" Xie Mingzhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It's just skill design. Master, don't worry. Although the cards I made are weird, I am still very normal and don't eat weird things."
"Yeah." Chen Qianlin's expression eased a lot, and he was obviously relieved. He really didn't know how to comment on his little disciple's skill of making "human meat buns".
Chen Qianlin suppressed the discomfort in his stomach, ignored the strange description, and looked at the skills carefully.
There is nothing wrong with the design of the black shop owner. It is not the first time that he "kills even his own people when he goes crazy". It's just that last time Cao Pi only killed Cao Zhi. When Sun Erniang goes crazy, she can kill all her teammates and make the team destroyed.
The second skill...
Chen Qianlin said: "There are some problems with the description of the skill. Whenever a character card dies, Sun Erniang can quickly make a basket of buns - the official data engineers don't know how to judge the word "quickly". Either you specify that the buns must be made within X seconds, or just write that it is made instantly, which is an instant skill."
Xie Mingzhe nodded seriously: "Let's make it instant, otherwise Sun Erniang will be interrupted when she spends a few seconds making buns."
Chen Qianlin said, "You don't have any rules for the skill range. If my teammates die 50 meters away, Sun Er Niang will definitely not be able to make buns. In addition, the ghoul can devour corpses. When Sun Er Niang and the ghoul exist at the same time, corpses will become very popular. Should she make buns first or eat corpses first?"
Xie Mingzhe: “…”
Corpses are in great demand. What kind of perverted professional league is this?
The corpse-eating ghost designed by Gui Sirui is quite perverted, but Xie Mingzhe thinks... using corpses to make buns seems even more perverted.
Xie Mingzhe thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I'll add a skill - when a character card dies, Sun Erniang can choose to make human meat buns from all the dead characters within a 23-meter range. The corpses that she doesn't make into human meat buns can be affected by other skills."
In other words, if Sun Erniang makes buns, it is useless to resurrect because the corpse has already been turned into meat stuffing. If she does not make buns, the ghouls can eat them, and we can also use the resurrection skill. This is a problem of the order of skill settlement. If a character dies, Sun Erniang has priority. If other cards die, then the ghouls will eat them first.
Chen Qianlin had a complicated look on his face: "It's fine to change the method, but are you sure you want to use the skill name 'Human Meat Buns'?"
Xie Mingzhe smiled and said, "Well, Master, have you lost your appetite after hearing this?"
Chen Qianlin: “…”
After that, playing against Xie Mingzhe not only made me feel uncomfortable mentally, but also stomachically.
