Strategy/Usage[]
JUPITER KING's niche is to knockback and slow Aliens. It's a niche with some big benefits, but equally big weaknesses. On one hand, the niche allows it to hold back a trait that's pretty notorious for swarms. On the other hand, Aliens are a trait also brimming with backliners, in which its abilities can cause it to push too far and endanger your other units. It's a niche that should be self explanatory for his usage, but JUPITER KING's performance leaves a lot to be desired due to its low proc chances, long attack rate, and general lack of noteworthy abilities to justify how unimpressive it is. As such, if you need a unit to knockback or slow Aliens, Racquet Cat and Psychocat will be more than enough for the job.
JUPITER KING has good range and ok DPS, allowing it to be usable as a generalist, but its not highly ideal due to lacking mobility and survivability. As such, it gets outclassed by Ururun Cat very easily.
True Form[]
Through the guaranteed surge ability alone, GOLDEN JUPITER CC's usage skyrockets. It essentially gives it an extra attack, resulting in its ok 4.7k DPS turning into an incredible 9.4k. The surge itself is also very reliable, spawning at 700-400. This allows it to rank as a top generalist, being applicable in almost any scenario and delivering monstrous results in a similar vein to Mighty Lord Gao. On top of that, it also gets a big health buff, allowing its lack of survivability to be easier to excuse in the event that an enemy can snipe it. However, as with any low-knockback count uber, protecting GOLDEN JUPITER CC is very important.
GOLDEN JUPITER CC crowd controlling doesn't change on its own, but the surge allows it to have better matchups, as it can snipe backliners and even knockback enemies twice in one attack. It also get a guaranteed barrier breaker, just to add even more matchups. However, its Slow duration and chances are still quite low, so don't count on it for too much when it comes to being a crowd-controller, as it's far better suited for being a generalist.
Overall, GOLDEN JUPITER CC is a stellar unit, and is beyond worth all 7 Catfruits needed to obtain it.
