Classification does not include Talents

Strategy/Usage

Stilts Cat can regain terrain against short ranged, bulky Angels like Divine Cyclone quite effectively. Since it lacks area attacks and angels tend to come in groups, or outrange it, or be easy to push back with damage, better results can usually be expected from other stallers.

True Form

Acrobat Cats are both a lot bulkier and has a more consistent knockback chance. Despite this, their usability barely changes, mainly due to the lack of area attacks. Still, they work well with Ramen Cat, as they can relieve the pressure by knocking back some of the enemies, plus they make it harder for them to advance through temporary gaps. They can also stun-lock a Sunfish Jones who is set as boss or save the base from Boraphim.

Talents

The most notable Talents are Surge Attack and immunity to Wave Attacks. The former fixes the single target issue at the cost of not happening every attack; it allows Acrobat to seriously get in the way of incoming angels, using other traits to generate their surges often. When combined with wave immunity, Angelic Beast Rajakong and Youcan may seriously struggle to spawn any waves, plus the ability would allow for their use in stages where waves can't be prevented. Wave immunity also turns them into a decent wave immune ranged meatshield, although they face competitions from Dread Pirate Catley.

Attack up is inconsequential, but health up can sometimes help. Freeze resist is rarely going to help too, so it should be unlocked only if a situation demands it.

Orb

Defence up against angels is the best option. Note that it won't come into play much either way, so saving your orbs is recommended.
