==Strategy/Usage==
Ryu Cat is pretty much a better pre-True Form Flower Cat with better HP, range, attack rate, and freeze uptime, but worse cooldown and slower movement speed. However, Ryu Cat suffers from the same issues as Flower Cat: it has an unreliable proc rate, and single target attacks. The problem only gets worse when you later get Bombercat who has a guaranteed chance of freezing and Area Attacks, making Ryu Cat become outclassed very easily.
However, before Bombercat is obtained, stacking him up behind a large amount of meatshields can effectively counter Doge Darks, sometimes Gory Blacks, and, if there’s only one or two, and you can still heavily meatshield, Shadow Boxer Ks. But he still has the problem that Black Enemies, similar to Angel Enemies, are aggressive pushers that are meant to quickly destroy your units, with a highly damaging, rapid attack. 
The only real reason to use this unit is if you don't have any better units to choose from for freezing Black Enemies, (like Bombercat.) though he can at least be properly used for levelling up your User Rank.
