B Peace Bringer · Jade Rakshasa · Cao Cao developer pick Starter Beats 0 of 8 reference lineups 54.97/100 out of 100 Peace Bringer (S02), Jade Rakshasa (S02) and Cao Cao (S01) score 54.97 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.
Peace Bringer is the shield: the damage reduction and staying power buy the rounds the plan needs — carries 74% of damage reduction across its kit, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are. Jade Rakshasa brings a second damage line worth 38% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Jade Lotus puts 162% x6 into one enemy squad on a 40% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Cao Cao is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: raises what enemies take by 151% across its kit, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. Be clear about what this is: the three cover each other rather than trigger each other, so it earns its place on coverage, not on a chain. What you give up: no hero here feeds another one's trigger; Jade Rakshasa (S02) is the era weak point -- the enemy will aim at the oldest squad. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers -- the score above is what that classic core is still worth against the current roster.
