Strategy/Usage

Zombie Cat is meant to be a light version of Fish Cat, as he is weaker but cheaper and faster-recharging. Use him against some of the weaker Red enemies in Empire of Cats.

Despite losing use quickly outside of Empire of Cats, he is included in a few notable Cat Combos; Biohazard and Horror Movies, when combined, can make cats like Artist far more effective as meatshields, by increasing both numbers and quality.

True Form

Sadly, Skelecat's stats prevent him from being a viable anti-Zombie unit, despite gaining strength against them. By the time this form is unlocked, there is no longer a use for him. However, unlocking this form is still recommended as it grants the player access to Bony Bone, which can easily be combined with Biohazard to improve the spammability of cats by a good margin.

Talents

Skelecat's attack and defense boosts aren't enough to keep him from being outclassed by Island Cat and Crazed Fish Cat, but, if he is also given weaken, he can survive as long as Manic Island, sometimes. Regardless of that, however, Skelecat is still much more spammable, even without the recharge up talent, which allows him to still have a use, despite being weaker that even pre-True Form Crazed Whale, but only if a massive amount of NP is invested in multiple of his talents.

Slow Resist is expensive and situational, thus not recommended.
