• After Sun Ce awakens, he becomes Awakened Sun Ce.

• "Passion" goes into effect before the red-suited Attack or Duel goes into effect. In other words, Sun Ce may draw an Escape or Attack to avoid damage when other characters target him with these cards.

• "Passion" is not activated when Sun Ce uses a red-suited Attack in response to a Duel or Barbarians, as he does not target another character with this card in these cases.

• When Diao Chan uses "Sow Discord" to force Sun Ce to Duel another character, "Passion" is activated.

• "Soul Position" is an awakened ability and Sun Ce cannot choose to not activate it when the conditions are met.

• "Brave Gesture" is Base Zhou Yu’s ability that allows him to draw an additional card during his drawing phase (net draw of three cards instead of two).

• "Brave Spirit" is Sun Jian’s ability that allows him to select a character at the beginning of his turn and force them to either draw X cards then discard one or draw one and discard X cards, where X is the difference between Sun Jian's maximum health and his current health.

• If Sun Ce is the king and loses a competition for "Takeover", the two cards used in the competition are simply discarded.

• Sun Ce can only refuse competitions if "Soul Position" has been activated. Otherwise, he must compete with Wu characters.

• "Passion" is useful both offensively and defensively. Sun Ce does not lose cards when using Duel or red-suited Attacks, and enemies may hesitate to target him with these cards since he draws one before they go into effect.

• "Soul Position" grants Sun Ce two powerful abilities once awakened. The combination of "Brave Gesture" and "Brave Spirit" provides him and his team with a strong card advantage.

• Sun Ce is a unique and effective king, as "Brave Spirit" becomes more powerful with an extra unit of health. He also actively contributes to defeating rebels, unlike many other king characters.

• "Passion" may not always be easy to activate, as most Attack cards are black-suited. This power also does not protect Sun Ce from offensive abilities or tool cards.

• Sun Ce is significantly weaker when not the king, as "Brave Spirit" is only available to him when his maximum health limit is three, and its effects are reduced.

• "Takeover" can put Sun Ce at a disadvantage if Wu characters who are rebels compete with him, wasting his cards.

• Healing Allies:
  Wu Guotai and Hua Tuo can keep Sun Ce alive at one unit of health, helping him activate "Soul Position" and making "Brave Spirit" stronger.

• Card Advantage:
  Sun Shangxiang benefits from "Brave Spirit", as she can draw and discard equipment to activate her "Armed Consorts" ability.

• Forced Duels:
  Diao Chan’s "Sow Discord" forces Sun Ce into Duels, triggering "Passion" and potentially causing his opponent to hesitate, as Sun Ce may draw an Attack in response.

King

• • Sun Ce is an exceptional king due to his ability to contribute actively to combat through "Brave Spirit". While "Takeover" may be risky, Wu loyalists can use low-numbered cards to give him extra cards.

Loyalist

• • Sun Ce is a strong loyalist, though he loses effectiveness with one fewer health. "Passion" still provides value, especially when facing rebels.

Rebel

• • Sun Ce is competent as a rebel. "Passion" helps him confront the king, and his offensive potential remains high.

Spy

• • Sun Ce is a mediocre spy. His powers are not ideal for keeping the game balanced, and "Soul Position" does not provide enough leverage in one-on-one battles.

Sun Ce is a unique character, best utilized as a king, despite the potential downsides of his "Takeover" ability. His gameplay revolves around "Passion", which can be activated offensively or defensively, and "Soul Position", which greatly increases his power once triggered. Playing Sun Ce often involves taking calculated risks, as lowering his health deliberately to trigger his awakening can backfire if not managed carefully. As the king, Sun Ce shines by combining personal strength and synergy with his Wu allies.

Sun Ce was known as a bold and energetic leader, earning the title "Little Conqueror" as he led a rough and tumble life, expanding his territory in Jiangdong. One of his most famous acts was recruiting Taishi Ci after a personal duel, recognizing Taishi’s value and adding him to his army, demonstrating his sharp instincts on the battlefield. Sun Ce's success was built on a series of daring campaigns, where he carved out a foothold for the future kingdom of Wu.

However, Sun Ce's promising rise was cut short when he was ambushed by assassins during a hunt. Though initially surviving the attack, he sustained severe injuries that left him vulnerable. Soon after, he fell seriously ill and could not recover from his wounds. His death at a young age left Wu in a precarious position, with his younger brother Sun Quan taking up the reins of leadership. In Sanguosha, his abilities reflect his aggressive nature, especially in his king role, where he has the ability to push others into competition and gain advantages through sheer force, much like his bold moves in history that led to his early victories and dominance in Jiangdong.
