Sniper Battler

Sniper Battler is a special alt form battler unlocked by upgrading to level 10. It debuts as an enemy in Wall Painting on Tumore difficulty. It has much higher range, ignores armor, and does twice as much damage, but has an extremely slow recharge and attack rate compared to its normal form.
==Character==
Sniper Battler wears the Sniper Relay Helmet, has a yellow skin, beige torso and dark blue legs. Its enemy version appears similar to its battler version, though its helmet now has a red-ish hue, alongside with it having salmon torso, and maroon legs. Prior to the Royal Flush update, they always used to crawl on the ground while carrying a beige and salmon sniper rifle respectively. Now they slowly walk towards their enemies and crouch to fire their weapons.
During April Fools, Sniper Battler has been modified to reference Grunt from Madness Combat. It has a cross-shaped face, grey skin, along with dark grey torso and legs.

==Usage==
Sniper Battler takes the range capabilities of its normal form further, increasing its already high 30 range to 40, which is ludicrous. This range paired with its high damage output allows enemies to drop dead at sudden times, and is great when your other units are in direct combat. Sniper Battler's potential to pick off units without even being on screen has drastic consequences for the enemy, weakening the enemy until they can't get back up. Its armor-piercing also allows it to deal full damage to usually very tanky units, increasing its versatility. It also has no blindspot, therefore any enemies which even sets foot on the battlefield is a target. Like with , to take most advantage of the unit, it is best to stack it.
Understandably, this massive range means that most of its other stats must be balanced to not make this unit broken. It has an 8 second attack rate, twice as slow as its normal form, meaning if it hits a peon instead of a main enemy, it needs to wait a long time to have just one more attempt, which has the same chance to fail as before. It has a really long cooldown, meaning if you want to stack this unit, you have to stall for a very long time, which may not be possible in some quick-paced stages. It also is dependent on other units to defend it because when left on its own, it becomes very vulnerable. As with its previous form, Sniper Battler is not a good unit to use for backup, as enemies tend to advance quite quickly and can get close enough to Sniper Battler to kill it.
===Strengths===
* Has a much further range compared to 
* More damage output than 
* Ignores armor’s flat damage reduction 
===Weaknesses===
* Extremely slow attack rate
* Has an expensive cost to deploy
* Terrible DPS and needs constant support
* Gets overwhelmed on hordes
* Can waste excess damage on almost dead enemies
* Long recharge time
==Strategy (Enemy)==
 is a pretty huge step up from his normal form, getting more damage range and the ability to pierce armor, in trade for some attackrate, which doesn't matter much. He can be a direct counter to armored tanks like or because of the fact that he pierces through armor, therefore being able to kill armored things faster. But really, he has a very similar strategy to , meatshielding and slowly pushing till you can reach them. If the stack is being a nuisance, try backline killers like or .
