Metal Cat (Super Rare Cat)

Metal Cat is a Super Rare Cat that can be unlocked by playing the Rare Cat Capsule when "Limited Edition" is part of the current pool. 

Cat Unit # 200
Super Rare Cat
Metal Cat	Metal Macho

Cat

Evolves into Metal Macho at level 10.

Pros

• Only takes 1 damage per attack, except for Critical Hits.
• Decent recharge time.

Cons

• Awful health. (only 2 HP at LV 1)
• Single target attack.
• Very low attack power.

Strategy/Usage

• Expensive at first sight, this cat is exceptional if used properly. Metal Cat can take a maximum of 10 hits when it is level 20, but will only get knocked back 2 times, meaning that he can stop the progress of a single enemy, regardless of its attack power, by standing in front of it for two times 5 hits. Hence, he is very useful against powerful enemies with slow attacks, such as Dark Emperor Nyandam, THE SLOTH or Kory.
• That being said, another utility for Metal Cat is to allow the player to build up his/her money while Metal Cat stops the progress of a giant enemy tough to kill.
• However, what makes Metal Cat a good unit is also his downfall; as said before, Metal Cat will die after 10 hits, no matter what. Against quick enemies such as R. Ost (If R. Ost Crits, then Metal Cat dies even sooner), or even Squire Rel, his use will be pointless. When there are a lot of peons, rather than wasting $600, use your usual tough meatshields such as Eraser Cat and Crazed Wall Cat.
  • That said, if the player has Manic Macho Legs, the strong wave attacks will clear a path for Metal Cat to do its job despite peons.
