Lady Red Jade
The Lady Red Jade is a Secret melee unit from the Dynasty faction. They are equipped with the Guandao. |
Location
Lady Red Jade can be unlocked on the Dynasty map, on the roof of the large center building. It's tricky to spot but you will find their weapon tucked between a ridge on the first tier eave, directly above the front entrance. If you can't see it, merely push the camera against the center wall just above the hump and look down until you hear the unlock sound. |
Characteristics
Lady Red Jade is a melee Unit that attacks by swinging their weapon in very wide arcs, sometimes even in complete circles. They will do this consecutively, even using spinning kicks to attack. The Lady Red Jade does not spin as continuously as the Mace Spinner does, but its attacks are still swift. Lady Red Jade is not fragile, and will need many attacks to take this warrior down.
As of the Unit Creator update, Lady Red Jade now has a new ability named 'Tornado Swipe', which allows them to make a small tornado every 15 seconds, which ragdolls units around the air and deals low damage. Lady Red Jade can also deflect projectiles now.
Appearance
Lady Red Jade appears as a substantially tall wobbler, donning a decorated dress with elbow length sleeves, a knee length skirt, and boots. Lady Red Jade also wears a seeming hairpiece, along with wielding their mighty Guandao.

Strategies
Lady Red Jade is a master formation disrupter, as it is able to launch a tornado at enemy Units, sometimes even killing them. However, it is useless against most melee units when it comes to the same price.
Usage
- Thanks to Lady Red Jade's Tornado Swipe ability, Lady Red Jade can break enemy formations and dissociate an army of light units. Along with that, Lady Red Jade's ability sends people up in the air, so usually, it will also cause units to take fall damage. This makes them useful against "Glass Cannons", like the Sensei.
- Because of them being immune to taking damage while using their Tornado Swipe and deflection ability, it works pretty well as an anti-ranged unit, but this still depends on the timing, as it will do its job as long as the ranged units are placed in less than 7.5 WM far from it (to activate their tornado swipe,) though the deflection often compensates for this.
- Due to their relatively quick attacks and sped up momentum with their Spin Slash, Lady Red Jade is excellent at dealing with boss units like The King or Pirate Queen, primarily when in a 1v1. When said boss units are paired with ranged units, it works even better for Red Jade because of her ability to deflect while she's within combat.
- Due to the Master Projectile Block ability, Lady Red Jade is quite a good melee unit to use against hordes of 10-15 ranged units. Combing that with their Tornado Swipe ability, it can disrupt ranged formations.
Counter
- Lady Red Jade is not good against an army of Taekwondo units, and sometimes, a single Taekwondo can win if the former misses their attacks.
- High DPS hordes like chieftains are effective against Lady Red Jade, since several ones can take it down.
- Armored units are effective, as a single Da Vinci Tank is enough to take several Lady Red Jades out from medium range.
Trivia
- The unit was confirmed to be a secret unit in this tweet and the weapon was confirmed in the comments section.
- It was confirmed in the files that the unit was called Red Jade.
- If the player places enough cheerleaders Lady Red Jade will turn into a large tornado, as large as Blackbeard's one.
- Lady Red Jade's Guandao can reduce damage from certain large projectiles, namely the bomb cannon. Lady Red Jade can survive 3 bombs at full health when facing the opposite direction of them, but can survive up to 7 if their Guandao blocks all of the shots, though they will have barely a sliver of health left.
- It has a tendency to twist its weapon behind its back after performing its Tornado Swipe ability.
- When it does their Tornado Swipe, it cannot take damage, which is pretty effective against ranged units.
- The unit is based on Liang Hongyu (梁红玉)(1102-1135), a legendary female Chinese general of the Song Dynasty. Her name translates to 'red jade' in English. The link to Real Red Jade wiki. (This was confirmed in Sanna's tweet)
- In one case, after UC beta update, they could defeat a Tree Giant. It is possible (though it is extremely rare) that it can still defeat the latter.
- It used to cost 2000 at the time of its initial release.
