## Background Story

### Developer Post (Chinese Server)

#### "Enthusiastic and righteous."

He has gray skin all over his body, and his tall and playful ears are unique among all mice. He often wears a green and red top that looks particularly lively.

### Cartoon Origin

Topo first appeared in the cartoon short "Neapolitan Mouse".

Noticing a commotion outside his home, he stepped outside and saw Tom hitting Jerry with a frying pan. Not only did he bravely save Jerry, but he also helped Tom when he was bullied by a local dog. After recognizing Tom and Jerry, a pair of cartoon stars, he invited them to have Italian cuisine, and even volunteered as a tour guide to take Tom and Jerry on a local sightseeing tour.

## Character Strategy

### Attribute Analysis

* Topo's overall attributes are relatively balanced, and there are no outstanding attributes. His pushing speed is low, so it is not suitable for being a Cheese role, but his Skill Strength is very high. As long as he uses his skills properly, they can exert a strong interference effect.

### Skill Analysis

#### **Active Skill: Leaning Tower**

* This skill can cause a terrain blocking effect, so cast it in some narrow intersections, so it can easily make the cat stuck while chasing, which can buy a lot of time for teammates.

* Teammates can gather in a room to push a wedge of cheese. Topo can go directly to the door in the direction the cat is coming from. When the cat comes, use the Leaning Tower to push the cat away and block the road.

* When the cat is tying a mouse onto a rocket, if Topo has no stunning items, he can directly seal the rocket with a Leaning Tower, so that the cat cannot tie the mouse (PS: it is also effective against Tom with Raging Charge activated).

#### **Passive Skill: Act of Goodwill**

* Lv. 1 passive can help Topo recover skill cooldown faster.

* Lv. 2 passive can increase teammates' rescuing speed when Topo is tied to a rocket, and slowing down the fuse at the same time. If many mice are tied, you can consider rescuing Topo last and make full use of his passive effect.

* It is more difficult to trigger Lv. 3, and it is not recommended to upgrade first.

#### **Weapon Skill: Italian Pizza**

* After a Pizza has been taken out, teammates can also use and ride it.

* When riding on a pizza, you can jump, use skills, interact, throw items, etc..

* When the Pizza reaches a certain speed, jump off the Pizza, and it will continue to roll forward with the inertia, which can be used to block a pathway when the cat is chasing you.

* Remember to drop off immediately before hitting the cat with the Pizza, otherwise you will also get stunned.

* The pizza can be spawned/dropped on platforms such as edges, stairs, and ramps to make it achieve speeds that would be naturally impossible while riding it or to attack the cat without really needing the start up.

#### **Second Weapon Skill: World Ball**

Topo became a soccer player. After charging, he kicks the soccer at the opponent with a wonderful worldie! The introduction of World Ball makes Topo more versatile in terms of stunning the cat. Here are a few tips to share with players:

* After Lv. 2, the World Ball can be used to instant-heal yourself. However, you still get the healing effect after canceling the skill, which means this will consume less time to eat food while saving up your skill at the same time!
	+ Moreover, if you have upgraded Lv. 1 passive beforehand, it will reduce the skill cooldown even more.

* While charging the soccer, you get a larger POV, similar to Mouseketeer Tuffy's Mouseketeer's Spear. This will be a great way to detect any surrounding enemies, as well as for better aiming.

* If you charge the soccer long enough, it can even bounce longer, which may hit the cat for two times, creating a surprise stun attack to the cat, dropping any mouse that they have caught.
	+ This can also be done upward or downward, so that the ball can be ensured to stay at one place more than once.

## Recommended Perks

S Class Perk **Fearless** (★★★★★)

* It is a rescuing perk, guaranteeing Topo's survivability and the rescued teammate during the rescue.

S Class Perk **Blood of Iron** (★★★★★)

* Increase Topo's survivability, on the other hand, to rescue teammates while in the state of Iron Blood, plus with the help of his passive which increases rescuing speed.

B Class Perk **Precision Shot** (★★★★☆)

* After hitting the cat, reduces the skills' CD, combining with Lv. 1 passive, it can quickly refresh your skills, and allow you to block the cat more frequently.

B Class Perk **Cut and Run** (★★★☆☆)

* Increases Topo's chance of escaping the cat's pursuit after rescuing, as well as increasing the teammate's too.

B Class Perk **Leap** (★★★☆☆)

* Makes Topo more flexible, can be used in conjunction with his Leaning Tower to reach higher places.

C Class Perk **Help Me** (★★★★★)

* A must-bring perk for all characters, so that teammates can rescue you faster.

## In-game Strategy

### Scouting Phase

* In the case of ensuring your own safety, cooperate with your teammates to explore every room on the map as much as possible, to collect information about room items + drinks + cat's location and cheese refresh positions.

### Cheese Phase

* Topo's cheese-pushing speed is relatively slow, so it is not necessary for him to push the cheese. Topo should play a role in protecting teammates from pushing cheese. You can put a Leaning Tower to block the cat on the way to attack teammates.

* You can also ride a Pizza to patrol around the cheese hole to cover the advancement of your teammates, even if the cat is approaching invisibly, you can knock down the cat immediately.

### Rescuing Teammates

* After a teammate has been caught, Topo can intercept the cat on the way to tie the mouse, mainly targeting some rockets that have been tied or the rockets that the cat has laid out traps. Release a Leaning Tower to buy time, and ride a Pizza near the rocket to deter the cat, so that the cat does not dare to tie the rocket easily.

* Topo is a very good Distract role. When a teammate is rescued from the rocket, he can let the teammate escape near him, so he can ride a Pizza to block the cat from chasing any further.

### Wall Crack Phase

* If Topo and the cat are not near the Wall Crack, Topo can use his blocking skills to delay the time for the cat to reach there, which can increase the time for teammates to break the Wall Crack.

## Advanced Strategy

### Super Jump

* Release Leaning Tower and then jump in mid-air almost simultaneously, which can reach you to a very high position if you land on the tip of the tower. The height is almost the same as the height reached by Robin Hood Jerry's triple jump!

### Invincible Stun

* Before rescuing a teammate, cast Pizza in advance, then stun the cat while in Fearless state to escape (you can also drink Shield or let King Jerry to shield you to reach a similar effect, this can improve the success rate).

### Leaning Tower Rescue

* When encountering a rocket with a mousetrap, Topo can use the Leaning Tower to slide the mousetrap on the tip of the tower, and then get stuck under the gap of the Leaning Tower to rescue, this allows Topo to rescue without touching the trap.

### Safe Passage

* Ride on a Pizza to cast a Leaning Tower, even if the cat cannot be pushed away, the floating Leaning Tower can be used to effectively block the cat, while the mouse teammates can use their small sizes to pass as an advantage.

## Character Evaluation

Topo is mainly positioned as a Distract + Rescue role. In specific terrains, Topo can cause great disturbance to the cat. The Leaning Tower can hinder cat's actions, the Italian Pizza can prevent the cat from tying mice onto rockets, and can also help teammates create an escape route. It is necessary for Topo to have a good grasp of the timing of the skills' release and the terrain to be an effective role in the game. With the introduction of World Ball, he has reached new heights, stunning the cat more easily by the nature of the soccer's bouncing mechanic, not suffering the terrain restrictions like Italian Pizza.

Beside equipping skins, he can also equip a robot mouse skin to gain more Fashion Points, same with Footprints.
