==Strategy/Usage==
===Normal/Evolved Form===
Sports Day Cat is a meatshield, meant to stay in the front and tank hits in place of others. Their stats make them fairly good very early in the game, as they can act as a tougher, but more expensive Tank Cat. Using a Treasure Radar to obtain them early from the easiest stage could, therefore, result in them having some use. They are, however, quickly left in the dust by Eraser Cat, who can quickly get as much health while costing much less and being able to improve a lot more. Overall, they quickly end up with no use, as they are outclassed in every aspect. 
===True Form===
Rampage Cats gain longer range. This turns them into a ranged meatshield that can be used in stages where filling the frontline with cats is problematic, such as stages with Dolphina (Floor 35, No Return Flights) or some Omni Strike enemies. Unfortunately, there is no health gain, meaning that this unit will still die in one hit most of the time. 
The range also comes in handy when you are faced with a typical frontline attacker and a wave enemy, like Teacher Bun Bun variants paired with Kory variants (as in Labyrinth of Hades), Rampage's high range will make it so that when Bun Bun pushes into your attackers, Kory will miss his chance to create a wave, as unlike standard meatshields, Rampage will not advance. This is especially notable in Bakoo's Revenge stage, where you really don't want her to hit anything.
Despite this, ideal conditions for this form's use are rare, plus they face competition from Cameraman Cat and Jiangshi Cat, who may also be used in some of the same situations. In summary, don't use this.

==Appearance==
*Normal Form: Three Cats surrounding a Tank Cat. The Tank Cat has a red bandana. In BCTW and BCKR, it instead has a blue bandana.
*Evolved Form: Three Macho Cats carrying a tied up Tank Cat. Several red bandanas cover his eyes. While he still looks happy, he appears to be in obvious distress.
*True Form: The Macho Cats have now hoisted the poor Tank Cat onto a pole, whacking enemies with said pole to attack. The design is most likely a reference to "Bo-taoshi", a Japanese sport.
==Trivia==
*Rampage Cat's design and Japanese Name, Bo-Taoshi Cat, references bo-taoshi, a famous game similar to capture-the-flag in Japanese sports days 
*In the Taiwanese and Korean version of The Battle Cats, the Tank Cat is wearing a blue headband.
*Both stat-wise and cost-wise, this unit is a literal combination of three Cats and a Tank Cat.
