Banshee
The Banshee is a Secret ranged unit from the Spooky faction. They are equipped with Banshee Hands and the Banshee Scream. |
Location
The Banshee is found on the Spooky 1 map in the dead forest on the bottom left side of the map. |
Characteristics
Banshees are a terrifying foe to face, and are capable of lifting and throwing units off. Its scream is an area attack, and will push every Unit in its radius away, whilst also killing them. The Banshee, however, cannot take extreme amounts of damage. Taking this into account, the Banshee is best left for crowd control over a moderate number of weak units with low HP, and stalling for some time for your army, but not dealing with extremely strong Units, such as the Reaper, King, etc.
Appearance
The banshee has several chains wrapping around their body. The banshee also wears ragged clothing, and the banshee has many armbands and wears a crown. As well as having no legs, but instead the banshee has chains for legs.

Strategies
Usage
As its main attack, the banshee picks up units using ghostly powers. Then, the Banshee unleashes an explosion making units around it float, then pushes them back. This ability makes the banshee a really good crowd control unit, or at least good at buying you some time, as they can pick up any unit, even giants. However, the Banshee can only withstand so much pressure, as a single hit from the Reaper is all that it takes to kill them. Considering this, if you want to get the job done, either use it when confronting multiple weak low health Units or accompanying the banshee with Units that can actually do more damage.
It is a considerable strategy to use a banshee to crowd control multiple units at once, as in the crowd controlled units they cannot attack. They are best paired up with units like musketeers and archers that can do lots of long range damage once the banshee lifts them up.

Trivia
- The unit would've originally been called Ghost.
- The Banshee is a woman in Irish Folklore that heralds the death of a family member. Whoever hears the sound will die a day later. This is probably how the scream ability came to be.
- The unit has no smooth transition between body to chains.
- The Banshee has an infinite range, which is similar to Wizard.
- A lot of Banshees can defeat the Super Peasant, but they need to be in huge numbers, like 400 banshees.
