New hero Cao Cao Will Join us on January 28

New hero Cao Cao will be released on January 28. Heavy Jaguar Horseman will also join us!



The legion led by Cao Cao is a Heavy Jaguar Horseman. Each unit is armed with a long-handled ax and the hero can activate the skill(Leopard's Charge
) to make them charge to a designated area.

In addition, when Cao Cao takes damage, part of the damage will be shared by the nearby units.



Cao Cao can also summon Cao Ren to assist in combat. Cao Ren leads 4 units, which can exist on the battlefield for 90 seconds. They are all armed with lances, which can be set up to launch Tiger's Charge towards the enemies.

When Cao Cao is executed or killed by excessive damage, if Cao Ren is alive nearby, Cao Cao's passive skill [Life Escort] will be triggered. Cao Cao will exchange positions and current HP percentage with Cao Ren, and Cao Ren will be killed instead of Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's Q skill is [Last Shadow]. After activating it, it will greatly increase the starting speed of Cao Cao's mounts for some time.



The above is the introduction of the new Hero Cao Cao. You can see more details in the game!
