Is Axe Cat Worth It?
The infamous Axe Cat, a powerhouse of the Battle Cats kingdom. Is it worth leveling up, or is it a cat-astrophic waste of resources? We’ll delve into the numbers and break down the advantages and disadvantages of this seemingly powerful cat.
History and Upgrades
Introduced in version 11.2, Axe Cat comes with 4100 health points (HP) at its basic form. Reaching the True Form can be done by clearing Floor 29 of the Heavenly Tower and is accompanied by a 6% health increase and an additional Mini-Wave on attack.
Stats vs. Performance
Here is a summary of Axe Cat’s base stats:
| Attack | Multi-Hit DP | Health | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| 350 | 900 | 4100 | 4 |
Compared to other cats, Axe Cat’s health is respectable but not remarkable. Its multihit damage (850) and range (4) make it a long-range cat, but they are average at best. Meanwhile, Brainwashed Axe Cat has significantly higher stats, making it outperform Axe Cat in raw power.
Weak Points
As a mid-lane cat, Axe Cat has two major weaknesses: limited health (compared to other beefy cats) and its decent but far from stellar multihit damage. This could make it vulnerable to Aku Cat’s (3,700 HP) direct attacks. Additionally, stronger enemies may not be delayed long enough by Axe Cat’s damage output.
| Cat | Attack | HP | Range | Why Axe Cat Performs Poorly |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kasa Jizo | Higher Range & Multihit Damage | Lower HP | Mid-Long | Axe Cat is outranged and can’t inflict enough damage with its single-target attacks |
Competition from Lower-Cost Cats
Take Tank Cat, for instance, who has 6300 health points (significantly higher than Axe Cat) but costs 1300 Gold compared to Axe Cat’s 2900. Tank Cat also packs a stronger Multi-Hit attack, pushing its power even further forward.
Conclusion
If you’ve already invested substantial resources in Axe Cat (including cat food, treasures, or even continues to revive from a single fatal mistake), it’s somewhat reasonable to continue leveling her up to take advantage of her true form. The health and mini-wave attacks will yield a moderate level of increase in power and effectiveness. However, beginners or mid-game players ought to reassess their squad and opt for more rewarding, resource-efficient cats from lower-tier floors.
Is Axe Cat worth it for the current meta? Possibly, depending on your progression and strategies. But take note of the overwhelming number of stronger alternative cats, which can effortlessly outmaneuver even a boosted Axe Cat on the battlefield.
To Level or Not to Level
Based on the aforementioned statistics, we recommend keeping Axe Cat at a beginner level if you’re serious about optimal performance. Those already heavily invested in Axed Cat might still find merit in boosting her stats (up to a point); however, for the late game and higher-level engagements, focus on other competitive cats instead.
Call to Action
Asses your priorities and weigh options. The Battle Cats meta landscape is unpredictable, but strategic cat picks and upgrading wisely will provide the highest chances of winning. Join the conversation – what is your stance on Axe Cat’s worth?
