The long awaited video is here, with many people asking since the Beginner/Mid-Game Progression Guides, what is the Key Gacha units? Here it is, the video going over all the KEY GACHA units in Battle Cats but also, this video explores which key gachas you should go for or True Form first. Mainly aimed for beginners or players in the mid-game, this video will also dive into each Key Gacha unit and break down what they do and what their purpose might be for you. Don't forget about the disclaimer. Since this video is already too long, the second part for this video will be released separately, going over the situational gachas and investment priorities, etc. More beginners progression type guides are still on the way, and many other guides further breaking down the 'How to Progress Through The Battle Cats (Mid-Game)' & 'How to Progress Through The Battle Cats (Beginners)' videos into specific topics such as this video!

Why do battle cats youtubers who are trying to help new players represent cats by their true form which will be unrecognizable to the people they're trying to help rather than presenting them by their base form to be more easily recognizable by newer players?

[@barbaricbacon9139]

For the super rare tier list, I’d swap catophone with rich cat. I feel like the extra money at the start of a level for a 1 slot combo is way more useful than anything that catophone can do

[@kittymonsta2474]

this is for beginners. most beginners don't use combos as most beginner stages give you a ton of cash

[@nvapisces7011]

Nah its not that hard to get 1 level. All you need to do is to get a little bit of cash. Cat jobs on the other hand I would consider uber tier super rare just like cyber

[@FrankTheDino420]

Hey man catophone looks hilarious and that’s enough

[@Andrew-pq3lj]

A couple points you missed: when compared to cyborg, slapsticks is MUCH more cost efficient
Cyberpunk also has extremely good talents, being slow up, survive, and cost down
The slow up talent specifically is one of the best talents in the game, giving a single cyberpunk over 50% slow uptime and allowing 2 cyberpunks to perma slow (when withought talents it would take 4)
Otherwise though, insanely great vid! Keep it up!

[@overlordsora303]

This is meant to be a guide for beginners. Getting Slapstick cats requires an Elder Catfruit, definitely not a beginners item. Same with talents, you have to progress to about mid game before you can start really unlocking them.

[@Andrew-pq3lj]

Good point, I guess I didn’t think of that when I wrote this, cyber talents are still relevant when considering his strength though even if you haven’t unlocked them yet

[@sazartgrizzlyz9074]

Boogle content is always super helpful. One thing is that rodeo is great for relic debuffs (With talents) and miter saw cripples all alien stages. other than that, sifu true form is worse ramen. Basically dont do what i did and rush uber true forms

[@franco-golpeador2435]

The problem with Chill cat is that in the moment you obtain it (before-during Into the Future) its absolutely useless against the normal alien enemies because of the range, but pretty useful on CotC for the shorter range of the star aliens, yet still, it doesn't cover the fact that he is pretty replaceable in quite a lot of situations (yet he finds his use in CotC... sometimes...)

[@carlosemilio385]

I actually dont think that its a bad idea to tf flamenco cat into bellydance cat, and its because she is actually a really good anti aku unit with talents, of course that cat should be one of the cats that you'll true form last cause you wont have that many problems against aku in the early game unless you want to beat aku cyclone, I might put aku cat into the get later tier list cause she isnt a low priority cat exactly

[@dudeimnotgay2971]

We’ll you also can’t get her tf until you beat SOL so it wouldn’t really fit in a beginner guide for key gachas. But I agree that it is worth a mention atleast

Can Can speed, double bounty, ATK, HP
Cyberpunk slow
Camera Survive, ATK, HP, crit if needed
Pizza wave, ATK, HP
Sanzo angel target
Catasaur crit
Housewife savage blow
etc.
I plan on doing a whole video diving into talents for the key gachas and stuff.

[@jericroyboy]

@@JohnBoogle Awesome! Looking forward to it. Thanks for the advice.

[@pbh7905]

First time I've watched this, I was so early in the game that I didn't know a *SINGLE* thing about any Unit mentioned alongside their importance in-game. Now, I'm almost past ItF 2 and on my way to Saint Red Fox and I definitely know now how it feels when you don't have a key gacha unit compared to when you do.
Rare units I have rn are Ramen, Sanzo, Catassaurus, Thaumaturge, Catellite, Psycho, E.Duelist, Chill Cat, Pirate and pretty much all the others at the bottom.
As for Super Rares, I have Cyberpunk, Can Can, Pizza, Fishman, Seafarer, Housewife, Cat Jobs, Nymph, Bath, Bod and Cat Base. I really need Octo, Roe and Slapsticks atm.

[@eggbaby672]

I would say if your in the later game (uncanny legends/very late SOL and cotc) catelite and rodeo are more of a priority. Docter cat could be good but rodeo is better against relics. Shigong is a really useful anti zombie meatshield so you should try getting him around the into the future zombie outbreak time. Acrobat cats are really good against tanky decent range angels. I would say the should be higher. Robot cat is hust plain trash though. Ut really depends on the situation your in and how far you are. But if you are more early in the game, try sticking to his list

[@kobyspear7928]

I wanna mention Can Can is so so without talents. I had a level 40 +2 and it would die to the simplest aliens and reds. However after upgrading its attack, defense, and speed it has become sorta what people praise. Though it has a sorta long attack animation.

Becuase of this, I'm struggling with the black trait, And I'm also struggling with general usage. Thankfully, I did get D'artanyan on a platinum ticket roll (wow I was lucky) which helped me in some stages. However, like I said, I'm struggling very much becuase I don't have these two units. I can't also really find a way to get rare tickets right now for a chance of getting Hip Hop and Pizza, since school exists. I have 782 cat food right now, So I couldn't get a draw on the superfest. Right now I'm just waiting for a 750 cat food discount so I can do a cheap 11-draw, but I may have to wait a few months for that. I'm really hoping to get those 2 super rares.
