Black Cyclone (Black/Floating)

Black Cyclone (Japanese: ブラックサイクロ, Burakkusaikuron) is a Black/Floating enemy introduced in the stage Attack on B-Cyclone (Expert).

Enemy

The Black Cyclone has medium movement speed, but has an insane attack rate at close range, dealing fairly high damage per hit, and hitting multiple cats.

Among the Cyclones, Black Cyclone gets knocked back more (same as Metal Cyclone) and moves faster. It is also supported by a lot of other Black enemies. Due to its lower damage compared to other Cyclones, high health units (such as most Uber Rares) can resist a few seconds of its onslaught. Without them, many anti-Floating and/or anti-Black units are needed.

Strategy

• Anti-Black units, like Cat Gunslinger or any of the Vajiras, are really useful against this enemy. To do damage, the player should spawn some heavy hitters like Bahamut Cat or any other long-range cats, whilst spamming low production cost and cooldown cats like Macho Cat and Wall Cat as meatshields to protect them. Of course, like most cyclones, spamming anti-Floating cats (particularly ones who can freeze Floating enemies) like Shaman Cat and Bishop Cat will be very effective.
• Kasa Jizo can OBLITERATE this guy if stacked. Salon Cat is also an option.
