• Taishi Ci can use "Heaven's Justice" in two main ways:

  • He can initiate the competition before attacking, giving him the potential to attack twice with the bonuses of unlimited range and an extra target for both attacks.

  • He can use the ability after his first attack, allowing one additional attack with the bonuses. If he uses the latter, the first attack before the competition does not benefit from the bonuses.

• The bonuses from "Heaven's Justice" stack with any weapon effects Taishi Ci has. For instance, if he is equipped with the Crossbow, he can attack multiple times with infinite range and each attack can target two characters.

• Taishi Ci can be incredibly dangerous offensively if he wins the competition, delivering multiple attacks with extended range and multiple targets. Enemies with only one Escape card may hesitate to use it on the first attack, fearing he has Wine for the second strike.

• Taishi Ci doesn’t always need to maximize his ability for extra attacks. He can strategically use "Heaven's Justice" at the end of his turn to force an opponent to discard cards if he doesn't need to attack twice.

• "Heaven's Justice" is costly in terms of cards. Taishi Ci needs a high-numbered card to win the competition, as well as two Attacks to make full use of the ability. This can quickly deplete his hand if he overuses his power or mismanages his resources.

• Taishi Ci lacks defensive abilities, which makes him vulnerable when under attack. He must rely on allies for protection or keep Escape cards handy.

• Supportive Characters:
  Characters like Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Liu Bei, and Lu Su can provide hand cards to Taishi Ci, helping him maintain his offensive potential by refilling his hand.

• Da Qiao's Synergy:
  Taishi Ci can attack Da Qiao and another character within her attacking range at the same time. Da Qiao can then pass the attack to the second target, effectively doubling the attacks on the second target.

• Retaliatory Characters:
  Characters like Fa Zheng, Sima Yi, and Xiahou Dun have retaliatory abilities that trigger per attack instance. This can make Taishi Ci’s extra attacks more costly or damaging to him.

King

• • Taishi Ci is a powerhouse, but he does not make an ideal king due to his lack of defensive abilities.

Loyalist

• • He is a strong loyalist, particularly when the king is someone like Liu Bei who can provide him with extra cards.

Rebel

• • As a rebel, Taishi Ci shines. If he wins the competition, he can attack the king from any range, making him a significant threat.

Spy

• • Taishi Ci struggles as a spy. He is most effective with a team, and once his role is revealed, the other players may not support him, unsure if he will turn on them.

Taishi Ci is a strong offensive character, but he can lose momentum quickly without the right support. His "Heaven's Justice" ability requires careful management of cards, as it is expensive to use frequently. Players should weigh the benefits of competing with a friend versus an enemy. Competing with a friend offers a higher chance of winning, but it comes at the cost of the team’s resources. Competing with an enemy risks losing the competition if they have a high-numbered card, potentially leaving Taishi Ci unable to attack that turn.

Taishi Ci was a righteous and loyal man, driven by a strong sense of duty and justice. Early in his life, he came to the aid of Kong Rong, the prefect of Beihai, who had helped him in the past. Taishi Ci, moved by Kong Rong's situation, took on the responsibility of aiding him against bandit forces, showcasing his loyalty to those who supported him. His actions earned him a reputation as a brave and capable warrior.

Later, Taishi Ci faced Sun Ce in battle, and although they fought fiercely, Sun Ce came to admire Taishi Ci’s valor and strength. After being captured by Sun Ce, Taishi Ci gained his respect and decided to join the Sun family, serving them loyally for the remainder of his life. His steadfast dedication mirrors the faithful and persistent warrior seen in Sanguosha, where his "Heaven's Justice" ability emphasizes his relentless pursuit of victory in combat.
