Tumor Cat

Tumor Cat is a Core enemy afflicted with Blind. Its defining mechanic is reactive: when struck, it immediately dashes forward 10 tiles with Trample, barreling through any unit in its path. It may not attack on its own turn, making it relatively passive until provoked.

The 10-tile trample charge is the most dangerous ability in its kit. Hitting Tumor Cat from any angle triggers this charge, which can travel across the entire battlefield and trample multiple cats in a straight line. Because it is Blind, its charge direction may not be fully predictable, creating chaotic splash damage potential against clustered parties.

Spread your cats across the battlefield to minimize how many are in any single trample line. Keep cats perpendicular to Tumor Cat rather than in a row behind it. Immobilize completely stops the trample charge and is the safest counter. If you must hit it without immobilize, ensure the path behind the attacker is clear so the trample charge pushes through open space rather than into your other cats.
