Strategy/Usage

Unfortunately for Tin Cat, there is no good use for him outside of few stages like The Dom Awakens as Black Enemies either outrange him or have tons of knockbacks. This only gets worse when you look at his single target. Tin is also easily outclassed by other anti-black stallers such as Cat Gunslinger and Bombercat, leaving little use for this unit. It can, however, be rather helpful at pushing back enemies like Le'noir, Director Kurosawah or Le'Grim in, at least, some cases. Also note that his faster second form can work better than the third due to the faster speed, so pick wisely!
