Plow

Plow grants the elite enemy 3 stacks of Trample and the ability to move one space toward the source of any damage it takes. Trample allows the enemy to deal damage to units it moves through or over, turning its movement into an offensive action. The MoveTowardsDamageSource passive means that hitting the Plow elite from range actually pulls it closer to your attacker, closing gaps automatically. The enemy has a blue-grey tint.

Plow is most dangerous on large enemies (2x2 or bigger) that can trample multiple cats when moving through your formation. The automatic advance toward damage sources makes kiting nearly impossible, since every ranged attack brings the enemy one step closer. Plow combined with Speedy creates a relentless charging threat that crosses the battlefield rapidly while dealing trample damage along the way. In tight rooms, the Plow elite can repeatedly trample back and forth through your team, dealing damage on every movement.

Position your cats spread apart rather than clustered, so the Plow elite can only trample one cat per movement at most. Knockback abilities can push it back after it advances, but remember that the advance happens on each damage instance. Trample immunity from mutations or items completely negates the movement-based damage. Walls and terrain blockers can prevent the enemy from trampling through your formation. Focus fire from a single direction so the Plow elite's advance is predictable rather than pulling it in multiple directions.
