What is this coolGuy unit? ANSWERED

[mkmunnabhai9]

I have seen this unit with player rangel117. It has 9 attack 10 armor 10 p. Armor and 3 different aura. Is it a easter egg unit?

Yes. You can see CoolGuy in Hall Of Fame.

Yes it is an Easter Egg, but anyone can find and use it. I believe it was designed by CoolGuy (and named after him obviously) but I think the real CoolGuy has been long gone from here, kidnapped by real life.

To find the EE, there is an EE upgrade that you can buy with your gems. This does not give you the unit, only a clue how to find him. The clue baffles many people, but contains all the information you need.

"there is an EE upgrade that you can buy with your gems" actually you can not buy and no need to buy, you can have the clue without paying gems.

Oops, my bad, duff information alert
Obviously Stratego is a lot more generous than I thought

Thanks for all this information.

Also one piece of advice - to beat this unit more easily - be aware of very agile defense category weaknesses.
Siege rams, ranger and what's worst weakness- cheap scout dog have bonus damage against CoolGuy.
Currently also flailmen deal huge damage, because of armor ignore property (although it's not really intended).

Coolguy also cannot be carried by e.g. wagons, siege towers so it's exposed to ranged attacks and easier to outmanouver.
