==Performance==
+ Deals massive damage to Black enemies
===Pros===
*Area Attack
*High health and DPS
*Fast attack rate
===Cons===
*Long animation and cooldown
*Low movement speed
*High cost
==Strategy/Usage==
Weightlifter is a very good offensive unit against Black Enemies. It has a relatively fast attack rate, moderate recharge and cost, while its massive damage ability to Blacks rips them to shreds by exploiting their low range. It is extraordinary in levels like Black Premonition, where large amounts of Black threats spawn.
Since this unit is slow, a little expensive and doesn't have the best recharge, it's best to make the most of each.
===True Form===
Pizza Cat is an excellent anti-Black cat overall. Dealing 62,900 damage to Black enemies at Level 30 with 100% Void Fruit, Pizza Cat will demolish any black support if meatshielded properly (although it can still fall back on his high HP). He also gets much better survivability in TF due to his increased HP, standing range and knockback count.
===Talents===
With talents, his performance as both an anti-black attacker and a general midranger become better, as he gets both attack buffs (Increasing his base damage to 18,870) and a chance to create waves. His wave attacks (30% chance for a level 2 Wave Attack) not only let him deal much better damage to more durable black enemies, such as Dark Otter, but also allow him to snipe backliners such as Tackey, Le'noir and even Director Kurosawah, as long as there's a frontline present. Pizza Cat's Wave talent is considered one of the most important talents in the game, although it is more expensive to level than Can Can's Extra Money and Sanzo's target Angel. He's also able to work as a crowd controller with his 50% chance to slow black enemies for 2 seconds, although as he is usually used to defeat them, this might become counterproductive if Pizza fails to kill them, as this instead pushes them out of the line of fire. It is instead recommended to use Bombercat to crowd-control Black enemies. Finally, the Cost Down talent is mostly just for convenience as Pizza is not too expensive for what he does, but can be useful sometimes. The only really bad talent is health up, as Pizza rarely needs it, due to relying on outranging threats most of the time and its very high cost for how little it does.
