Hello everyone, I'm Gaming Xiao Di.

Recently, there have been many activities in Honor of Kings, involving skins and heroes, such as preview leaks for the Five-Five Blackout Festival and announcements about hero strength adjustments. After careful observation, Xiao Di noticed that Sun Shangxiang frequently appears in these activities. What exactly is going on?

Skins returning one after another

In the recent preview leaks for Honor of Kings' Five-Five Blackout Festival, besides the much-anticipated new collaboration skin for Nezha, news about the Fantasy Shop opening was also announced, and it will include two skins, one of which is Sun Shangxiang's "乘龙·问璇玑" (Dragon Year Limited Skin). This Dragon Year limited skin is making its first return, available at a minimum discount of 20%. For those who missed it before, this is quite good because the skin's feel is excellent, comparable to that of the Doomsday Mech skin.

Everyone might be quite surprised by this sudden return of the skin, but it's actually not very strange, considering that during previous limited free periods, this skin was on the free list. Moreover, currently in the game, another Sun Shangxiang skin is also returning: Sun Shangxiang's "火炮千金" (Cannon千金). This skin is very old, and its quality isn't high. Its initial price was only 288 coupons, but later it wasn't sold directly again; it became available only through draws. Fortunately, there's a guaranteed mechanism—it will definitely appear within 100 draws. I wonder if anyone has tried drawing for it?

The hero also received enhancements

If you've been following the latest hero adjustment announcements, you'll notice that Sun Shangxiang also received enhancements recently, mainly modifying the cooldown of her first skill and the impact of basic attacks on the cooldown reduction of the first skill. It's important to know that Sun Shangxiang heavily relies on her first skill; all her damage is directly linked to the basic attack after rolling with the first skill.可以说, the first skill is Sun Shangxiang's core damage skill, so this adjustment provides significant help for her.

The reason for adjusting Sun Shangxiang is simple: her current data is far below normal strength. Latest data shows Sun Shangxiang's win rate is only around 45%, slightly better than Gong Sunli on the射手 win rate榜, and she's also in the bottom ten on the全英雄 win rate榜.可以说, her strength is indeed somewhat low, hence the urgent enhancement.

However, this enhancement hasn't truly addressed the core issue. Sun Shangxiang's win rate hasn't changed much. Xiao Di checked win rates in other tiers, and they're similarly dismal. The main reason is that Sun Shangxiang's唯一 displacement and primary damage output are both tied to the same skill. This forces Sun Shangxiang players to choose between two options: prioritizing output means losing displacement and easily getting caught, but prioritizing survival means unable to deliver high damage, thus missing opportunities. It feels necessary to adjust her again.

Various signs indicate that Sun Shangxiang might have major moves in the coming months. The rumored Sun Shangxiang Sanrio collaboration skin circulating online is likely true, and its quality might not be low. After all, Sun Shangxiang hasn't had a new skin for整整两年, so it could be an无双, or even a珍品无双 isn't impossible.

That's all for this content. If you think it's还不错, feel free to like and support. If you have anything else to say, ask, or want to see, leave a comment below—I'll read them all~
