Five official starter lineups: choose an engine
Identify the resource producer, trigger, and beneficiary before copying the final seven units. Each official build has phases, card images, a reference board, and failure checks.
Five different engines
- Three Kingdoms Entry: Cao Cao, Xiao Qiao, and Cai Yan turn Entry triggers into levels for Lu Bu.
- Sunset Sea Preparation: grow the core, then amplify through Athena and Heino.
- Great River Totems: feed Ao Yin through totems and Engage, keeping totems alive.
- Heluo Coins: feed Baili Xuance with coin production and add Taiyi for protection.
- Zhulu Tactics: effect cards trigger Mi Yue; keep the intended carry most equipped.
Read the opening cards
- Check early engine cards before committing. One late carry does not equal a working engine.
- Boards use official starter configurations. Adjust for opposing Blink, control, and focus fire.
