Kubi is one of those ubers who can't be mindlessy sent into any battle and be expected to work, but those who had him for a long time like me, definitely know when he can be of use and how. First, he can be used for the longnecks combo, which is ideal for going into levels blind, for those who do that (or am i the only one?), second, his anti.metal use is very underrated. He knocks back all units except SMS with damage and clears the peons, giving the anti metal meatshields less damage to tank and the critters (assuming one doesn't have Paladin) have higher chances not to hit metal doges, but strong metals instead.

Inhis second form, he is still great as he has a kb up combo with eraser and he can knock back the whole enemy army quite often, but not too often. He doesn't put units in danger by pushing into backliners because the backliners are also pushed back, instead the faster frontline can catch up with the cat army first, meaning that the effect is the opposite as the slower backliners are pushed back even more. As for the double knockback, it's a problem, yes, but only in some stages in which Kubi shouldn't be used in the first place, but there are even more stages is which the double knockback is, instead, crucial. He can even control the knockback distance by using the combo with eraser or not, and Eraser is usually in the army already if the stage is good for kubi.

In comparison, Only Lufalan and Shishilan are clearly better, one could argue for Nekoluga and legeluga, but he's definitely more useful than Nobi, Assasin and Piccolan.
