Rusher & Crowd-Controller |
Strategy/Usage[]
Thunder Jack is meant to be used as a rusher, with his rapid attacks essentially stunlocking enemies within his target traits if his knockback activates. He has the rare combination of insane DPS and health, with no knockbacks to interrupt his flurry of punches. He can't reposition, but merely advancing your frontline is more than compensation, not to mention he himself is vulnerable to knockback and warp, with sufficiently low range that a Mesocosmocyclone can potentially clip him into an enemy base. All of these make him a prime choice to spend Catseyes on.
If used as a rushdown attacker, like A.Bahamut, he excels with his sheer weight of fire, though this depends on the stage in question. Targets that aren't pushed away by his extreme damage or knockback ability may quickly destroy him, but he can still put a large dent in them. Meanwhile, enemies that can be easily pushed away will often leave his effective range if there's still room to move, but this also impedes their own attacks, potentially allowing him to close in and pummel them. His speed enables him to return the fight quickly after suffering from knockback abilities by enemies like H.Nah and Mr. Mole. Naturally, his pressure is also excellent against Long Distance attackers in general, especially Henry, as in his evolved form he is Immune to Freeze. On the other hand, his Single Target attacks, short range and lack of knockbacks all contribute to make him non ideal against hordes, as he is likely to be overwhelmed and die very early.
As mentioned before, Thunder Jack's knockback ability is an integral part of his utility and allows him to control enemies within his targeted traits. On average, it activates every 0.7 seconds, but his compatibility varies wildly. Ranged Aliens have the damage, speed or Barrier strength to keep him away, but he can still easily counter their melee units, such as Cyberhorn and Nimoy Bore. Angels usually have many knockbacks themselves and are often equipped with ways to make up for it, mostly in terms of raw stats, so he can't best them in direct confrontations when other efficient counters already exist. As for Zombies, his knockback can potentially force them to stop burrowing if it catches them in the act and also deal heavy damage directly, or reposition them away from vulnerable units, though his lack of Zombie Killer does have its downsides without proper support.

Trivia[]
- In his Japanese description, it's stated that he received his powers after being hit by a lightning strike. This could be a reference to the DC character Shazam who is able to transform after getting hit by a lightning strike.
- His design may be inspired by the design of Blast from One Punch Man. Both have a similar cape, similar sunglasses, a generally similar outfit and fight by punching with their gauntlets.
- Bloody Jack's description is likely a reference to a trope in Japanese media where places, usually schools, have a unique "seven mysteries", usually supernatural events.
