Liu Che

Skills

1. 
   Skill 1

   Glory of Shizong

   A smite sweep across up to five marches in a fan that also bogs them down for a few seconds.

2. 
   Skill 2

   Mighty Pen, Mighty Sword

   Infantry gain defence; an all-infantry troop also marches faster and shrugs off part of incoming skill damage.

3. 
   Skill 3

   Overawing Presence

   Fighting on the map his infantry hit harder, and basic attacks now and then add a small smite strike.

4. 
   Skill 4

   Expansionist

   On the map his troop deals more normal damage, and his smite hits leave their targets dealing less damage for a short while.

5. 
   Awakened

   Above All Kings

   Basic attacks on the map sometimes chain a combo strike and refund a basic attack's worth of rage.
