Attack1520 Guide: Cheshire Cat
In short
Chesire Cat is a legendary Spirit Attack champion from the Demonspawn faction, excelling as a high-speed nuker in Arena and Hydra. Thanks to Perfect Veil synergy and self-buffs, he dominates fast teams. Prioritize Speed and Critical stats to maxmize his unique SPD-scaling damage.
Strengths
- Damage scales with SPD — every point of speed increases his attack, making high speed deadly.
- Self-applies Increase ATK 50% and Perfect Veil on his A3 before striking all enemies.
- AoE on A1 while under Veil/Perfect Veil transforms his basic attack into an AoE.
- Extra Turn on killing with A3 allows chaining kills.
- Lifesaving passive blocks lethal damage every 3 turns, grants Block Damage and Perfect Veil, plus ignores 15% DEF and deals 15% more damage while under Veil.
Weaknesses
- Vil reliant — without Veil, his A1 loses AoE and passive bonuses are inactive; Veil can be purgged or stolen.
- Minimal debuffs — only a small SPD steal on A2 that does not work on bosses.
- Squishy — low base HP and DEF; relies on passive to survive.
- Book hungry — requires tomes to reduce key cooldowns for optimal performance.
Where to use
Best in PvP: Classic Arena, Tag Team Arena, Live Arena (all 5/5). Hydra (5/5) — top-tier damage dealer with built-in ignore DEF. Faction Wars (5/5). Viable in Clan Boss (4/5) but not top tier. Less effective in Dungeons, Doom Tower, and Hard mode (3/5).
Stats and gear
Stat priority: SPD (250–300) → C.RATE (100%) (base 15%) → C.DMG (250%+) → ATK% (5k+). ACC is optional — the SPD debuff is negligible. Recommended sets from the build: Speed + Savage/Cruel/Lethal. Merciless and Supersonic are also excellent.
Masteries and blessings
Offense tree: Pierce Defenses, Gathering Momentum, Constant Onslaught, Bloodthirsty Prowess. Support tree: Invigorated for survivalbility. Blessings: Crushing rend for PvE damage against high-defense targets; Heavencast for Arena nuking.
Tomes
Book A3 (Sinister Grin) first — reduces cooldown to 4 turns and unlocks the extra turn mechanic. Then A2 (Cat's Madness) for cooldown reduction and damage. A1 (Phase Claw) last, as it only gets small damage increases.
Verdict
A premere PvP and Hydra specialist with unigue speed-scaling damage. If you need a lightning-fast nuker who can wipe teams by himself, Cheshire Cat is a top-tier choice.
