TV Bot: Stop

Internal engine status effect. This is a command status applied by the TV Bot enemy. The "Stop" command immobilizes or stuns the target, preventing them from moving or acting for a turn.

TV Bot enemies cycle through different commands on their screens, and Stop is a crowd control effect that locks down a cat for a turn. The lost action can be critical in tight fights where every turn matters. Cats with Stun immunity or high resistance to control effects are less affected by Stop.

Tracking the TV Bot's command rotation helps predict when Stop will activate. Position key damage dealers outside the TV Bot's range during the Stop phase to avoid losing their turn. The other TV Bot commands (Die, Dumb, Obey) have different effects. Eliminating the TV Bot removes all command threats.
