Strategy/Usage[]
Despite its ability to affect every trait and having a decent Cat Combo, Slug Jockey Cat has embarrassingly poor stats across the board, particularly range, uptime, and cooldown. Slug Jockey is limited to melee enemies, and even if he locks on to something, the enemy is only slowed for less than 1/6th of the time. It takes more than a minute to get enough Slug Jockeys for even 50% uptime, which is extremely difficult considering most melee enemies make a dent in 10k HP like nothing. Its one perk is that most threats in Empire of Cats—Hippoe, One Horn, Sir Seal—have lower range than it, so it can temporarily serve as your main crowd-controller. Otherwise, use any other crowd-controller, even Easter Egg Cat, for the traits you need to counter.
Slug Jockey Cat's terrible DPS can actually be used to your advantage: stack enough of them on peons at the start of a level and they can immobilize bosses with less range than them. However, since Slowed enemies still move at a speed of 0.5, they will eventually kill the Slugcat stacks.
