Cat Unit # 239
Super Rare Cat
Sniper the Recruit	Sniper the Heavy

Cat

Evolves into Sniper the Heavy at level 10.

Pros

• 100% chance to knock back enemies (except metal).
• Very Long attack range.
• Evolved form is its own Cat Combo, powering up its already strong knockback effect.
• Quick attack animation

Cons

• Very low health and attack power
• Slow movement speed.
• Very long recharge time
• Long time between attacks.
• Single target.
• Doesn't knock back metal enemies

Strategy/Usage

• This Cat has a very long ranged attack. The damage is not too high but its ability is particularly useful when stacked.

• This unit is essentially a free Sniper powerup (excluding high damage but instead a better knockback). It is essential in stages with a single boss (such as the Crazed Cats).
• This unit is also useful to knockback slow and tanky bosses like Crazed Tank Cat.
• Sniper the Recruit combos extremely well with Unknown Cat. Unknown Cat benefits from the knockback upgrade offered by Sniper's cat combo, and the two of them together can successfully pin almost any boss to the enemy base. When fighting massive, tanky bosses like THE SLOTH, Crazed Tank Cat, or Dancer Cat, it is possible to use Sniper and Unknown in tandem to keep enemies stuck to their base, allowing your long-range damage dealers like Hacker Cat to destroy the base without having to eliminate the boss.
