Strategy/Usage

Waverider Kuu can be seen as a much tankier version of her usual counterpart, as her base defense stats are decently higher than her normal variant, in exchange for less attack power. However, this is Normal and Evolved Form Kuu that's being referred to, as Kuu in True Form actually has much higher base stats than this summer variant. Luckily, there are lots of differences separating them.

Her biggest weakness is that she is unable to hit Zombies that have burrowed below her, and she has no Omni Strike to hit them otherwise. The simple solution for this problem would be to spawn her after Zombies have burrowed. However, her attack rate has decreased compared to normal Kuu, which is good as that allows her to attack more often.

Against her typing, most Floating and Zombie enemies can be held at bay without an extreme amount of trouble; and combined with her Strong ability and slight increase in base stats, she can tank them decently well.

Otherwise, because of the lack of other reliable options for Zombies mostly being relegated to Iron Legion, as a Zombie counter, she works decently well. Admittedly, Cameraman Cat can do what she does well against Floating enemies, as Cameraman is easily stackable and can survive a lethal strike, making her a better option, because Waverider Kuu tends to miss.
