Forged to Kill is an event stage in The Battle Cats that has a 100% chance of dropping five Cat Tickets. Like Facing Danger, Cybear's Vengeance can only be beaten once per appearance, limiting Cat Ticket farming. It costs 500 energy to play.
You must clear Into the Future Chapter 1 in order to have access to this stage.
Battleground
Teacher Cybear spawns as soon as you start the battle. Teacher Cybear has the second highest damage power in the game (999,999) and attacks from a range of 800. However, it only has 50 health and, luckily, single-target attack.
No other enemies or peons spawn at all in this stage, allowing your army free reign to wander forward.
Strategies
Because Teacher Cybear has a massive 800 range (the same as Assassin Bear) and deals 999,999 damage per hit, he annihilates almost any cat unit in the game. However, he only hits a single target with each attack and is not assisted by any other enemy units, which makes unrelenting meatshield spam the key to defeating him.
As Teacher Cybear attacks once every 0.5 seconds and the lowest possible recharge time for a meatshield is 2 seconds, you will need a minimum of 4 meatshields to permanently stall him. However, you will then need a fifth unit or Sniper The Cat in order to start whittling away his health.
Cybear is extremely slow and has single-target attacks, although has near-constant attacks and ridiculous damage, one-shotting everything he hits. The best strategy is to spam any and all cheap (75/150¢ cost) meatshields you have, including but not limited to, Cat, Li'l Cat, Crazed Cat etc.
Jiangshi Cat is pretty effective here if you don't have enough meatshields thanks to his lethal strike resistance. True Form is recommended as, since you'll have other meatshields to stall, his cost won't be an issue at all. It is not recommended to bring other costly meatshields like Sumo Cat, as they do not have lethal strike resistance and will drain your wallet.
It is recommended not to use critical hitters as they will often be destroyed quickly and his minuscule health pool of 50 means he will die extremely quickly, even without criticals. Usage of Speed Up, Worker Cat Start Up or Starting Money Up Cat Combos or a Rich Cat and Cat CPU will help massively in this battle.
Metal Cat, at max level, is extremely useful in this stage as it can survive for around 6-7 seconds of Cybear's onslaught which gives you lots of time to pile on the meatshields and quickly destroy Cybear.
