Standard Tactics: The Duke hovers lazily around the arena, constantly summoning flies. It will summon Attack Flies to orbit around himself and shield him from enemies, while spitting out Large Attack Flies that chase down the opponent. If he has enough flies orbiting around him, he will also send all of them to attack the enemy as well. Once The Duke of Flies is killed, all the flies orbiting around him as well as many that were inhabiting his body will rush down the enemy. Green Champion Duke spawns Moters (Conjoined flies that split into two Attack Flies once "defeated") instead of Large Attack Flies and is more aggressive, being willing to send out his orbital flies to attack at any time, rather than after reaching a certain amount of them. When he does this, he will shoot blood projectiles in eight different directions. Orange Champion Duke is more durable and spawns Suckers (Flies that shoot blood bullets instead of chasing the enemy) instead of Large Attack Flies.
Weaknesses: Mostly relies on its flies to attack.
