Advantages and Disadvantages[]

Advantages:

Their bonus reduces the opposing card's damage by 2, with a minimum of 1, which helps to sustain the lowest damage possible if they lose.
Many of the cards have very good base stats.
Many of the cards have abilities that involve gaining life back or reducing even more damage from your opponents.
They also have good abilities that deal with gaining power or attack or taking them away from your opponent.
Their bonus helps to counteract Fang Pi Clang, La Junta, and (if certain conditions are met) Paradox's bonuses.
Their bonus also makes them really unpredictable. As such, the opponent won't know whether they want to land a KO on you or not.
They can be paired with Vholt to decrease the opponent's damage further.

Disadvantages:

They rely heavily on their bonus, so they are weak when going up against Nightmare and Piranas.
They also rely on their abilities, so they also have trouble when facing GHEIST and Roots.
They may also have trouble when going up against Freaks, whose bonus is poison and Jungo, who gain life back.
They do not fare well against Berzerk, since their bonus often compensates the damage taken away from them.
Their bonus has no effect on cards with the ability Protection: Damage or Cancel Opp. Damage Modif./Cancel Opp. Power And Damage Modif.
Though they can nullify damage to the Paradox's bonus; however, if certain conditions are met, and if met the Paradox have one extra damage that the Pussycats can't reduce (unless the Pussycat card played has damage reduction as an ability).
They can also have a hard time fighting the Oblivion due the varying nature of their bonus, though like the Paradox's bonus this depends on the ability being played.

Trivia[]

The Pussycats' finishing animation has the opponent's card being wrapped in a zipper, before being wrapped in a huge corset. The corset is then pulled, until it bursts open, showing nothing but the opponent's pills popping out.
The Pussycats´s finishing animation in their arena has a red dynamite with the logo of the clan being thrown onto the opponent's HQ, while a cat meowing can be heard. The dynamite explodes in a pink cloud and destroys the opponent's HQ.
The Pussycats' weapon is a pink Birkin bag.
The Pussycats´s finishing animation in UR World, the opponent´s card is surrounded by a flying heart and transformed the card in a heart shaped frame set
The Pussycats are the first clan to have a female clan leader. The only other clans that have them (at the time of said clan's release) are the Nightmare, Rescue, Frozn, Raptors (albeit shared with a male), Hive, and Komboka.
- They are also the first to have a LGBTQ+ clan leader (Kashink).
They were the only clan that has only females in their group, or a single gender, altogether.
- This changed when Schatzi became the first male member of the clan, as well as the Komboka clan.
Their color is pink, which is a color associated with girls.
It was the first clan to have two Mythic cards before other clans got two Mythic cards too.
Their founder, Kaizerin, is responsible for the creation of the Komboka clan.
- Incidentally the male members in both of those clans are non-human, until the release of Chadwik in July 2024 on the Komboka's end.
The clan's secondary bio reads, "We, women, have a whole bunch of abilities and the game’s most defensive bonus. Why bother trying to win a round when we can reduce any incoming damage? Well, almost…"
As Kashink's profile says that they identify as non-binary, it is implied that the Pussycats do allow members with different gender identities.
Although she founded the clan, Kaizerin was dismissed by the Pussycats for her horrifying action leading to the creation of the Komboka clan, and it was later revealed in Advisor's 1891 bio, that the Pussycats never saw her as one of their own.
- This implies that although they seek to turn Clint City into a women-driven city with them as the authority, they'd never allow genocide or comparable atrocities.
In Duchess' profile, it is stated that aside from sexism, they also can't stand animal cruelty.
Up until the GhosTown's release they were the only clan that has damage reduction as a bonus, they still do as the damage reduction in the GhosTown's bonus is only active at night.
In the Urbans faction's bio, it is stated that they have a near-monopoly of Clint City's nightclubs.
