Enemy

Zollow, despite appearing much later than his Floating counterpart, has less health and damage than him while also being slower and only having one knockback as well. But don't treat this enemy lightly, as he has the Toxic ability and a nasty Omni Strike attack to compensate. Thanks to his combination of abilities, he can break through meatshield lines and damage your attackers easily. Zollow revives once, but, unlike most Zombies, does not burrow past cats.

His Toxic ability takes off 80% of a cat's maximum health on top of the 10,000+ base damage from his attack, instantly killing most units that have under 50,000 health.

Strategy

This undead bird shouldn't be underestimated. Due to his low health, it is advised to attack him with Long Distance Cats, Wave attack Cats or Surge Attack Cats, killing him before he can land a hit. Using Toxic-immune cats like Talented Riceball Cat, King Nekokhamen and Hades the Punisher work great against him.

His ability to revive once after death can easily mess up the player's backliners if they advance. Due to this, Zombie Killers should be brought to deal with him for good. Housewife Cat is an excellent choice, as she outranges him and can kill him in one hit
