Samkok New Force Tier List

If you’ve been grinding through Samkok and wondering, “Which New Force generals are actually worth my resources?” our Samkok New Force tier list will help you get your answer. The New Force update shook up the meta, and knowing who’s top-tier can make the difference between steamrolling your opponents and getting stuck in the grind.

Whether you’re a casual player or chasing leaderboard glory, this tier list will break down the best New Force heroes in Samkok right now — plus a few underrated picks you might want to try.


SS Tier – Top of the Meta

Lv Bu
Zhuge Liang

💡 Tip: If you can only invest heavily in one or two generals, start here.

Both SS and S-Tier heroes are considered to be the meta. That said, SS heroes are a must-have if you want to be super competitive in PvP modes like Arena. Currently, pairing Lv Bu and Zhuge Liang is the meta. That’s why they are at the top of our Samkok: New Force tier list.

Lv Bu

Lv Bu is a high-damage dealer. He starts with strong basic attacks and a powerful “enraged” state that triples his damage. With more stars, he gains the ability to deal true damage every few hits and can attack more often when his teammates use skills.

His ultimate strength comes from his rage mechanic; he gains rage from his allies’ actions and, at max level, transforms into a devastating area-of-effect attacker. With high rage, his attacks deal extra damage to all enemies, making him a character who scales from a strong single-target threat into a team-wiping powerhouse.

Zhuge Liang

Zhuge Liang is a dedicated healer and team support who uses his skills to keep allies alive and boost their stats. His basic attack provides single-target healing, while his main skill is a powerful area-of-effect heal that also buffs the entire team’s attack.

Raising his talent level is very important as his skill becomes even more valuable, with a chance to cast again at half value, boost allies’ critical hit stats, and significantly increase the team’s rage regeneration. This makes them a vital character who ensures the team’s survival while also speeding up the use of their most powerful abilities. He’s Lv Bu’s best running mate.


Samkok New Force Tier ListS Tier

Guan Yu
Lu Xun
Zhao Yun
Lady Huang
Zhang Liao
Sun Shangxiang

S-tier heroes are meta in Samkok: New Force. As you are getting into the later stages of the game and you are climbing the arena, these are the heroes that you want to have on your team.

Guan Yu

Guan Yu‘s main power comes from the ability to chain attacks, as both his basic attack and skill will let him attack again if he defeats his target. He gains a self-buff called “Sacred Might” with each attack, which increases his damage and his chance to pursue targets when allies attack.

At higher talent levels, he can debuff an enemy’s defense while boosting his critical hit chance, and his critical hits deal massive bonus damage based on the target’s max health, making him perfect for taking down the enemy frontline.

Lu Xun

Lu Xun is a crowd control mage who uses the burn status effect to dominate the battlefield. He specializes in an area-of-effect skill that deals damage and has a chance to stun all enemies, with the stun chance increasing greatly on burning targets.

At max talent level, he gains the ability to reliably apply and spread burn and gets rewarded with extra attacks and rage when allies inflict burn. His ultimate ability ensures that he either gets a guaranteed chance to try for another stun or extends his crowd control on enemies who are already stunned, making him a master of battlefield control.

He’s what makes the fire team work with Sun Quan, Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu.


Samkok New Force Tier ListA Tier

Ma Chao
Zhang Fei
Diao Chan
Hua Tuo
Xiao Qiao
Yuan Shao
Sima Yi
Guo Jia
Jia Xu

A-tier heroes are solid to be part of a competitive team. In many cases, you are going to use some of them as fillers or for specific roles to round up your team.

Ma Chao

Ma Chao is a rage-control hero who disrupts the enemy team. He primarily uses his skill to attack an entire row, with a high chance to reduce enemies’ rage.

At max talent level, his basic attacks also gain a chance to reduce rage, and he can punish enemies for restoring their rage by pursuing them with an attack.

He also deals bonus damage to enemies with high rage and can completely prevent enemies with low rage from gaining more, making him a perfect counter to teams that rely heavily on their ultimate abilities.

Zhang Fei

Zhang Fei is a dedicated tank and protector whose main goal is to absorb damage and keep his allies safe. His primary skill taunts enemies, forcing them to attack him instead of his teammates, and at higher talent levels, this ability can also shield his most vulnerable allies.

He becomes incredibly durable by passively reducing the damage from powerful hits and can even punish attackers by reducing their rage.

His ultimate talent at max level makes him an unkillable force for a turn, where he becomes immune to death and gains a powerful life-steal effect after taking what would be a fatal blow, allowing him to survive and turn the tide of battle.


Samkok New Force Tier List – B Tier

Dian Wei
Zhu Rong
Xiahou Dun
Taishi Ci
Sun Quan
Sun Ce
Zhou Yu
Cai Wenji
Cao Cao

B-tier heroes are serviceable. You can use them to fill some gaps in your team until you get a better option. That said, if you are a new player and you get them during the early stages of the game, they can help you push through the game’s content.

Dian Wei

Dian Wei is a Berserker-like hero who thrives against enemies that apply debuffs (for example, Fire teams). His main skill hits all enemies, but leaves him vulnerable afterward in a “Weakened” state, though he can cleanse himself of debuffs if he has enough rage.

He gains more damage from being debuffed and can get a free attack if he has no debuffs to cleanse. His ultimate abilities allow him to cast his skill twice and, most importantly, gain extra, super-charged turns upon getting a kill, allowing him to quickly wipe out an enemy team.

Fire Team

Sun Quan, Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu along with Lu Xun are the heroes that you need if you want to play around with a Fire/Burn team.


Samkok New Force Tier ListC Tier

Lv Lingqi
Liu Bei
Lady Zhen
Da Qiao
Guan Yinping

C-Tier heroes are what you’re most likely going to use in the early game as a new player. If I had to recommend one of these, that would be Guan Yinping. Let’s talk a little bit about its skillset.

Guan Yinping

Guan Yinping is a unique burst damage caster who constantly attacks all enemies with her skill, but is then stunned for a period afterward. Her damage is directly tied to her rage, and she gains a significant damage boost for having a lot of it.

The key to using her effectively is to manage her “stun” drawback, which can be reduced by getting a kill with her skill. At higher talent levels, it deals extra damage to high-health targets.
