BOSS
KAPPY KAWANO
Ghost King I is the 1st stage of Invasion of the Swamplord. Next stage: Ghost King II.
STRATEGY
Kappy Kawano creates a Surge on every hit and answers your Surges with Counter-Surge, so Surge immunity is the entry requirement.
- The standard Surge-immune core of talented Boogie Cat, talented Actress Cat and talented Li'l Lizard Cat handles both Kawano and the Miz Devils.
- Ancient Egg: N003 works as a meatshield that Surges cannot touch.
- Bring a shield-piercing unit for the Miz Devils sitting behind their shields.
