Speed Up

Speed Up temporarily increases a unit's Speed stat, granting more movement range per turn and improving turn order priority. A faster cat can reposition more freely, reach enemies or objectives sooner, and act before slower units in the initiative order.

Speed Up is especially valuable on mobility-dependent cats that need to close gaps, kite enemies, or reach specific tiles. It also helps slower tanky cats keep up with the rest of the team. In fights where positioning matters heavily, Speed Up can be the difference between reaching safety and getting surrounded. Its negative counterpart, Speed Down, restricts movement and can be crippling for melee cats that need to close distance. Speed Up counters Slow and partially offsets Entangled or Tarred movement penalties.
