Monkey King
The Monkey King is the boss unit from the Dynasty faction. They are equipped with the Monkey King Staff. |
Characteristics
The Monkey King is a mythical being that wields a magical staff and has a long Monkey Tail. They are ferocious in combat, leaping into crowds of enemy units, using sweeping attacks with their staff while jumping around frenetically. The Monkey King defeats his enemies using his special techniques. With his staff and powerful attacks, the Monkey King proves to be a formidable fighter who should not be taken lightly. They can create clones of themself for a short while, and the clones will attack enemy units as powerful as the original, before disappearing into thin air. In combat, the staff may also grow in length, increasing the reach of sweep attacks.
In most interpretations, the monkey king is mostly shown as an adventurer or a god, and is based off of the Chinese legend of Sun Wukong.
Appearance
The Monkey King is a unique Wobbler in that it has several abnormal body parts. The Monkey King, for one, has a baboon-like head. It has blonde hair and a dark colored face, and also wears a golden crown around their head with feathers attached. The Monkey King wears a scarf. The Monkey King wears a robe with golden strips that covers only their left side of their upper body. They wear a wrapping around their waist and have puffy shorts with golden folds. They also wear little pointy wooden shoes. The Monkey King also has a odd looking curvy tail. The staff that the Monkey King wields is very fast and has golden and emerald designs on the ends.
Unit Voice
Usage
The Monkey King is a great unit for crowd control due to its swift attack covering a big radius, thanks to the range of its weapon and its jump ability. However, it can also take out some strong single units like the King because of the bonus damage that its clones can give. This means that it is also great at distracting. Due to its cost and relatively average HP, it should not be left alone as it can get shot down by Siege units or other range based troops.
Trivia
- The Monkey King is based on Sun Wukong, a Chinese Legend.
- It and the Witch are the only units able to clone themselves.
- The Monkey King's ability to duplicate does not only come from the staff, but also is a separate ability.
- Another interesting thing to point out is that in the myths they cloned themself via plucking out one of their hairs, and turning it into a clone, rather than hitting people around with their Golden Crown Staff.
- If it can be partially frozen by the Ice Archers; upon cloning, the copy itself will also be frozen.
- Keep caution when using the Monkey King, because most units can figure out which Monkey King is the real one when it self-duplicated, and the enemy will go straight for it.
- If a Taekwondo unit is placed right next to an enemy monkey king the Taekwondo will one shot it.
- The Monkey King has actually less health than the Monk.
- The Monkey King's clones are weak enough to be skewered by the Reaper's appendages; oddly, they will not drop their staffs upon death, similar to Zeus or the Ullr.
- The Monkey King's weapon can be expanded in size whenever it attacked, giving them an advantage against crowds.
- As of now, the clones will make a fan blowing noise when they disappear.
- The Monkey King can (but not always will) lose to a Samurai. The Monkey King can also be defeated by the Teacher, Fencer, and Ballooner.
- Sometimes, the Monkey King’s doubles transform into real ones, so even when the real one dies, the double will continue the fight like a normal Unit.
