Strategy/Usage

DONALD MORDEN is an alright Crowd-Controller with some pretty decent stats to boot. Since it also has higher range than Special or Rare Alien knockbackers, it can target enemies like Ursamajor, Maawth and I.M. Phace. Its niche of knocking back Aliens is not the best though, since on Alien-dominant stages, it will cause your other Cats to push into the range of backliners and get killed. It doesn't have much usage as a generalist sadly, since its stats are similar to Bahamut Cat, with the exception of its notably lower range. If you have Mizli, she'll likely be more useful because of her Warp Immunity and Slow ability, on top of her significantly lower recharge.

True Form

DONALD MORDEN finally differentiates itself from Mizuririn by gaining an extra target trait. Although another anti-Traitless Cat is great, it is mostly outclassed by Tourist Cat, who has a faster recharge, Freeze and many immunities. For this reason, it likely won't be too useful unless Tourist Cat is outranged by a Traitless enemy, or playing on a stage combining Traitless and Alien threats.
