Strategy/Usage[]
Li'l Nyandam is a solid long-range unit. Similar to Red Riding Mina, he is useful mainly in 4-Crown Stories of Legend stages when fighting other long-ranged attackers due to the lack of alternatives, as he underperforms significantly otherwise. Since his standing range is higher than most backliner enemies like Elder Sloth, THE SLOTH, Master A., Professor A, and Dark Emperor Nyandam (these enemies have 450~501 range, which makes Li'l Nyandam a relatively safe matchup), he can be used to chip away at them and provide some support with his slow ability when the frontlines get into a stalemate.
Unfortunately, Li'l Nyandam is of little to no use against Camelle or his variants (550), as his speed is far too quick, and outranging them by one makes him an unreliable counter, since a tiny shift in the frontline allows them to easily hit him.
Li'l Nyandam is outclassed by Cyberpunk Cat in most cases, as despite having a similar cooldown, Cyberpunk doesn't rely on chance to slow enemies and has a much greater range. With Talents, one Cyberpunk can offer a lot of support, and multiple Cyberpunks can even perma-slow enemies, which Li'l Nyandam is unable to do. That being said, Cyberpunk has minimal health and a giant blind spot, unlike Li'l Nyandam, who lacks a blind spot, can reposition once, and has significantly more health. Even so, his slow attack rate leaves much to be desired outside of chipping.
True Form[]
Schoolbus Nyandam's increased slow chance can easily grant solid support to your cat army. That, combined with his range and better time between attacks, improves the effectiveness of his ability even more, as well as nearly doubling his DPS (which is still unimpressive, though it's not his main use anyway), making him a useful support unit for 4-Crown stages or against Traitless and Relic enemies, as there are not many alternatives until you reach well into Uncanny Legends. Despite these changes, he still does not make the best use of an Elder Catfruit, and if you want a ranged unit, Awakened Mina might work better as while her standing range is only 435, her LD allows her to hit further and she does more damage.
