Cat Unit - 396
Uber Rare Cat
Ganglion	Ganglion the Ancient

Cat

Evolves into Ganglion the Ancient at level 10.

Pros

• Strong against Zombies and Aliens.
• Zombie Killer.
• The attacks reach behind its target, which means it will also damage longer range units.
• Medium amount of knockbacks.
• Good DPS.
• High health and damage.
• Has a rebound mechanic (explained further in Strategy)

Cons

• Has a blind spot (fairly small)
• Has a relatively small target range (the range at which it will attack)
• High cost and long recharge time.
• Can sometimes be too fast, which means it will sometimes end up in front of the meatshields and take unnecessary damage

Strategy

This cat is like The Peach Devils: Good enough stats, a good set of abilities, and a lot of speed. Unlike peach devils however, this cat has a rebound mechanic. This means that it will not move while recharging an attack, (which means it won't go to the frontlines and possibly take damage it otherwise wouldn't have while recharging an attack) and it'll attack immediately after being knocked back. (be it an enemy with knockback, the spawning of a boss or just plain damage) In particular, this unit is good against Aliens and Zombies. It is a very strong anti-zombie, but it it is outclassed by Megaphrodite in the anti-Alien category (who is cheaper, longer ranged and does 3x damage instead of 1.5x).

It serves well as an LD suicide bomber. It can cripple the backlines of enemies that would otherwise be a pain to deal with when the boss knocks back. Acts as a good counter to Tackeys and Dolphina, especially when they are supported by stronger enemies, as this unit can stay safe in their blind spots. Ganglion is also good on No Return Flights, as it can snipe Master A. and the numbers of Rain Ds that start to stack up from Dolphina's blindspot.

Stats

*First stats are 1st form's initial, second and third stats include 300% treasures; recharge time may vary.

*Time between attacks is the time of the attack from the animation's end until the next attack animation start.

*See this section to calculate stats.

Appearance

• Normal: A tall slender and skeletal dragon floating above a halo ring. Much like the other dragon emperors, he has a cat face on his chest.
• Evolved:Now his body is mostly black and has wings on his forearms. Unlike other dragon emperors the cat on his chest isn't crazed. Attack animation is a bit more refined.

Trivia

• Ganglion stands out compared to the other units from the same set. Unlike most other Dragon Emperors:
  • The cat face on his body does not become similar to that of a Crazed Cat when the unit evolves.
  • He's effective against 2 types of enemies instead of one.
  • He doesn't have the knockback ability.
  • He is quite fast.
  • His stats do not improve when you evolve him.
• Ganglion's second form have its "title" after its name instead of before it. A reasonable explanation could be the that when Ganglion created the Dragon Emperors, he didn't create such traditions that the other Dragon Emperors has now.
• A ganglion is a type of cyst (Potentially disturbing images).
