Byte

==Description==
Byte attacks using his cable, upgrading them will eventually allow them to stun enemies for a few seconds.
	
* Incredibly useful for faster enemies & bosses, especially on relatively short maps.
* Synergizes incredibly well with Melee towers.
* ⚡️ Shock and ⚠️ Paralyze have two separate immunities, thus they can be used together	
*Electric Type enemies are only affected for 1 second.
*Short range.
*Very expensive to place and upgrade.
*First 3 Levels have an under HP system
*Due to Byte's level 5 paralyze using the same immunity as El Goblino's standard traps, it's possible for a Byte to grant an enemy (Or worse, a boss) immunity to the trap's stronger stun by paralyzing them before they would have stepped on a trap.
*Extremely vulnerable to stuns, potentially allowing fast enemies to avoid the attacks.
==Upgrades==

== Strategy ==
*Due to Bytes expensive placement cost and weak slowdown effect, combined with the fact it can't slow enemies above 200hp, he is unrecommended for the early game.
*Level 5 Byte completely stops any enemy without the electricity or void property for 5 seconds. This is particularly valuable against faster enemies.
*Level 4 and 5 Bytes effects don't overlap with each other, allowing one to be applied right after the other, stalling enemies for longer.
*Byte synergizes very well with Hot Dog Frank and Yasuke, as they can deal massive damage to stunned enemies with their melee attacks.
== Trivia ==
*Byte used to do damage, but it was removed in the Cloudy Catastrophe update.
* There is a dancing Byte in the lobby. He can be found in the clothes shop area.
** During any Christmas Event, He has a Santa Hat on Top of himself.
*** The dance in question happens to look similar to the Shuba Duck dance meme, as it turns twice in a row then spins around fully, then repeats.
