Strategy/Usage

Normal/Evolved Form

Due to being the Li'l version of a Normal Cat, Li'l Bird Cat suffers from a severe lack of good basic stats, which makes it underperform greatly in its field. For this reason, usage of Li'l Bird Cat prior to unlocking its True Form is not recommended.

True Form

Although its health and range still leave it highly vulnerable, Li'l Flying Cat's anti-Zombie perks allow it to take a specialized role as one of the few spammable anti-Zombie damage-dealers. Li'l Flying Cat annihilates most Zombie peons, even Zories, although it can't handle Zir Zeal, Zang Roo and a few others due to lack of range. Despite this, it serves as a great Zombie Killer, just make sure you aren't overwhelmed when those dangerous enemies burrow under your front line.

To improve its performance, but also due to the lack of accessible alternatives for dealing with Zombies in 4♛ stages, it is recommended to upgrade Li'l Flying Cat whenever possible.

Talents

Target Relic and Curse Immune give Li'l Flying rather decent stats against Relics, especially in 4♛ stages or no-gacha strats. While he does outrange very few Relics, he really works well against those few. He can notably shine against a swarm of Sir Rel or even Primeval Cyclone with proper team support.

Similarly, Attack Buff and Defense Buff work really well, assuming that Li'l Flying is already boosted with Catseyes, to really improve his stats against Zombies and Relics.

Curse, however, is not really useful. It can prevent Relics from themselves cursing your Cats, as situational as that can be, as well as potentially helping against a few Zombies. However, most Zombies are stat-based and thus not hindered by Curse for the most part. Overall, this talent is too situational to be worth the NP, though the other talents are all great.
