Cerberus Kids

The Cerberus Kids (ケルベローズ, Keruberōzu, Ker-Bros) are an Aku variant of Those Guys that appears in Legend Stages and The Aku Realms.
==Enemy==
Like Those Guys, their main purpose is to get in the way, as they have low base stats but are usually spawned en masse. They have a chance to freeze units they hit for 4 seconds, which can be a problem, as they can prevent powerful units from shaking them off (them and other, more damaging enemies) once reached. If frozen, even tanky cats such as Dioramos may end up taking a knockback when reached despite their health.
==Strategy==
Treat them like a more annoying version of Those Guys - a simple peon that almost any attacker can defeat. Despite their high damage, the actual hazard they have is their 4-second freeze, though with a measly 120 range and single target it shouldn't matter too much. If you are worried about it, however, use Cats with Freeze Immunity, but even that is rarely if ever necessary.
As with most peons, Waves are the best way to obliterate swarms of them. Wave and Surge attackers can also exploit their low range to generate their special attacks.

==Trivia==
*In Greek Mythology, Cerberus is the canine guardian of the underworld who has three heads like how these netdwellers come in groups of three.
**Their Japanese name, Ker-Bros, is a portmanteau of Kérberos, another name for Cerberus, and bros.
*According to their Japanese description, these stickmen have actual names. From left to right, you have Tiablo (ティアブロ Tiaburo), Baal (バール Bāru) and Mephisto (メフィスト Mefisuto).
**Tiablo is one letter away from diablo, the Spanish word for 'Devil'.
**Baal is another name for the Christian demon Bael.
**Mephisto takes his name from Mephistopheles, a Faustian demon.
**They share their names with the three Prime Evils from the Diablo franchise – with the exception of Tiablo, which is off by one letter.
*The Cerberus Kids look somewhat like The Three Robbers from the picture book and animation of the same name, though with pointier hats and no other clothing. "Used to be low-level Red enemies" could be referring to how the robbers' adopted children wear red versions of their foster parents' outfits.
*There has, in fact, been a Red variant of Those Guys: Inca no Eraihito (インカの偉い人, "Eminent Inca"), a Kumanchu Royale enemy which looked like a Cat on a red seat held up by two of Those Guys.
*They have the lowest health and money drop of all Aku Enemies.
*They were technically an event enemy for a short time, as they were initially exclusive to the Empress' Research stages and The Great Diablo.
