Jester
The Jester is a Secret melee unit from the Medieval faction. They are equipped with Jester Daggers and the Jester Kick. |
Location
Go to Medieval 1 and zoom in on the right side of the map. Look for three barrels next to a brick wall; inside the middle barrel is the Jester's head. Zoom in and look at the hat until it glows and pops. |
Characteristics
The Jester is a Unit with proficiency in dodging. They make use of their nimbleness to the fullest by front-flipping out of harm's way. They are fitted with sharp daggers on their hands and toes, which they utilize by stabbing hand-to-hand and delivering a lethal kick respectively.
As proficient in killing and dodging the Jester is, they are incredibly fragile and can easily succumb to minor injuries. They are also unable to dodge Projectiles from ranged weapons.
Appearance
The Jester is clad in a team-colored jester outfit and hat. They have two knives strapped to its sleeves and two knives on its shoes.

Strategies
Usage
The Jester is a melee unit which attacks primarily by kicking or stabbing; it is able to dodge attacks by front-flipping when attacked by melee units.
They are used as a distraction against enemy melee, as it can dodge most attacks from them. They are, however, especially weak to ranged units, since Jesters can only dodge melee attacks. One shouldn't confront a Jester with melee units and ranged units, since the melee attack may cause the Jester to inadvertently dodge one or more projectiles as well.
The Jester seems to struggle when dodging downward striking attacks from larger units, and so is best used to tie up standard melee units.
In addition, the Jester is very vulnerable to other kicking units; despite normally being able to dodge melee attacks, the Jester cannot dodge kicks, as they technically don't count as an actual attack, but as a separate action.
Encounters
This unit is encountered in the Wild West (Campaign). |

Trivia
- The Jester becomes immune to damage while dodging, but will still be affected by status effects like fire.
- The Jester Kick is unavailable when possessing the Jester.
- The Jester was esteemed for their ability to single-handedly defeat a King; since then, it is rare for a Jester to defeat a King as they now swing quicker and better.
- In extremely rare cases, when the Jester dodges, it can also damage or even kill the unit due to its kicking ability.
- The Jester's actual hat and shoes are not available in the Unit Creator.
- The Jester Hat that is available has a larger size and lacks a yellow border at the collar.
- While the Jester now dodges by front-flipping, their unlock portrait still shows them backflipping out of danger, which was back before the legacy update.
- In the initial launch of the Unit Possession update, there was a glitch where the Jester, Vlad, Taekwondo and Ullr would be available before the player had found them; this was quickly fixed.[1]
