Kit Reveal: Disguised Clone Trooper

UNIT NAME: Disguised Clone Trooper

ALIGNMENT: Dark Side

CATEGORIES: Support, Clone Trooper, Empire

Key Attributes:

• Ruse triggers additional effects in abilities, such as being able to stun the enemy and dispel their buffs when using his basic ability or inflict debuffs on certain enemies with his special ability.
• His Territory Wars Omicron “Clever Ruse” makes it that Ruse no longer expires until the end of battle and if any enemy inflicted with Order 66 is defeated, Lord Vader and Dark Side Clone Trooper allies take a bonus turn.
• Disguised Clone Trooper has strong synergy with the other Dark Side Clone Troopers under Galactic Legend Lord Vader

Inspiration:

• Disguised Clone Troopers were part of Order 66, gatekeeping the Jedi Temple for Jedi returning to Coruscant after the distress beacon beckoning them back was activated as a trap
• Dressed in Jedi robes, Decoy Squad Five would ambush the unsuspecting Jedi as they approached the temple. 
• We wanted more Dark Side Clone Troopers who were present at Operation Knightfall and had a different visual look than Appo and Knightfall Trooper have.

Strategy Tips:

• Prioritize your targets and aim for those that have Order 66, and especially if they are Jedi or Light Side Unaligned Force Users, to take advantage of massive damage he deals when attacking.
• Be aware when facing teams that can remove Stealth, since much of his survivability and effectiveness comes when he is stealthed.
• Be patient and wait for the stacks of Damage Over Time to build up before using his Special Ability, as he deals additional damage for each stack of Damage Over Time.
• His Unique 2 grants him stealth if there are Galactic Republic enemies and if he doesn't have Ruse at the end of each of his turns, he gains Stealth for 3 turns.

UNIQUE 1: Clever Ruse (Zeta)(Omicron)

Final Text:

At the start of each of Disguised Clone Trooper's turns, if he was Stealthed, he recovers 15% Health and Protection, and gains 20% Turn Meter and Ruse until the end of that turn. When Disguised Clone Trooper attacks, he loses Stealth.

At the start of each enemy's turn, if Disguised Clone Trooper had Stealth, all other Dark Side Clone Troopers allies gain Retribution, until the end of that enemy's turn. If that enemy was a Jedi, Disguised Clone Trooper gains Tenacity Up until the end of that enemy's turn, which can't be copied, dispelled, or prevented.

While in Territory Wars: Ruse no longer expires until the end of battle. If an enemy inflicted with Order 66 is defeated, ally Lord Vader and Dark Side Clone Trooper allies take a bonus turn.

Ruse: This effect triggers additional effects in abilities; Ruse is removed at the end of the turn

UNIQUE 2: Decoy Squad Five (Zeta)

Final Text:

(Zeta) If the target enemy had Order 66, Disguised Clone Trooper deals Massive damage when attacking. If the target enemy was Jedi or Light Side Unaligned Force User, he deals an additional instance of Massive damage per Relic Amplifier level.
