A possibly better and harder to kill Hulk. A hardy, attack-focused Tactician that can protect and deal massive damage. Like Hulk his accuracy is very low.

Capable of dealing massive damage from round 1 and more so if he sticks around. Very low accuracy and 1-hit attacks means he might miss a lot except for his level 6 attack.
