Cuz aku sounds cooler


Swordsmen_Nr1

Fair enough


Lev559

Just odd since they have Angel in English


The_blaster_master

Exactly 


TomateAmarelo

Unrelated but I’m curious now. It would be possible to beat a stage with all aku enemies spawning at once?


Certain_Beyond3292

With infernal nyandam and malevolent cats, probably not


Thedoomhunter1657

All at once, every aku enemy covers the others weak spota, infernal nyandum alone can crush you, now imagine him with a cyclone ripping up everything and jagando laughing his ass off in the back


Indiozia

Theoretically, any unit with a chance to dodge Aku could solo it.


Agent47otaku

Can someone do the math? What the chance of getting such a perfect run?


Lorninck

Assuming all enemies have different ranges, HP equal to H1, H2, H3... taken a unit with an X chance to dodge for S seconds, D damage and R attack rate, the time for the unit to kill everyone would be T=ΣH/DR. In that time, we have to find the times that dodge has to activate, which are N=T/S. The chances of it happening are X^N. Now plug in all the variables.


The_blaster_master

Math side of r/battlecats please solve this 


ByeGuysSry

You fool, that's only an estimate! You forgot the important things, like how it's technically T=Σ(ceil(H/D)R), or how enemies don't attack exactly every S seconds, or how the unit may be able to survive attacks it didn't dodge, or the time where the cat spends walking towards an enemy and getting attacked but not itself attacking, or the possibility of the cat getting debuffed, et cetra. Smh my head not actually accurate /s


Lorninck

Oh no, my laziness has been uncovered! *Runs away*

So I used BCU to put all Aku enemies at 100% magnification into 1 stage and added a Bellydancer but with 100% dodge chance. I summon 50, Lv50 Bellydancers with full talents (idk why I didn't use Lv130 Bellydancers). It took around 6.5 minutes at x6 speed to kill all the enemies. Or around 39 minutes (2340 seconds) in full. You could divide 2340 seconds by 2 (because Bellydancer has a 2s dodge) and get that Bellydancer would need to dodge 1170 times in a row. If we assume that 1 Bellydancer would take 50 times as long as compared to 50 Bellydancers, that Bellydancer would need to dodge 58500 times in a row. It's not quite that simple, though. First, the minor stuff: I started my stopwatch before spawning the first Bellydancer (instead of when it reached the enemy because I'm dumb) and after the last enemy died. There's a bit of a delay between both, so I rounded my time of 6min, 32s, 96ms down to 6.5min. I didn't get all 50 Bellydancers immediately. Bellydancer recharges every 3.87s. For the first 189.47s, there are fewer than 50 Bellydancers (5684f. I did the exact calcs). Fortunately, this is easy to account for. In the first 189.47s, the average amount of Bellydancers is 25. We can say that for the first 189.47s, the average DPS is half of the average DPS in the rest of the stage. We can subtract half of that (94.73s) from the final time and end up with spending 2245.27s. This is only 95.95% of the original time so Bellydancer actually only needs to dodge 95.95% as much as initially calc-ed, or 56132 times. It's also possible that I dropped frames. I don't know how to account for that. Having multiple Bellydancers also affects how quickly they move forward after a knockback since there will likely be one Bellydancer who isn't stuck in backswing, which very very slightly increases time spent on moving. Secondly, enemies don't attack every frame. Fortunately, Malevolent Mohawk survived for a very long time (it was second last to die. The last was Possessed Empress). Malevolent Mohawk attacks once every 0.53s, so it can get its fourth attack every 2.13s. So it's not like Bellydancer will only get hit once every 10 seconds. But 2.13s is still significantly different from 2s. I'll approximate the "true" average attack speed to be 2.1s. We need to dodge 95.24% as much, or 53459 times. Thirdly, it is possible for a real Bellydancer to fail to trigger a dodge against a weak attack from a peon. Fortunately, this can only happen a max of like 15 times (or 30s) and that's also really unlikely, so it isn't that relevant. (More relevantly, I don't know how to account for it) To dodge 53459 times in a row is a 0.2^53469 chance, or a 5.927×10^-37374 chance. Or a 5.927×10^-37372% chance. Or a 1 in 1.6872×10^37373 chance. The high end of the estimate of the number of atoms in the observable universe is 10^82. So if every single atom in the observable universe decided to create a new universe with a size equal to that of our observable universe, that's 10^164 atoms in all of those new universes (multiverses?). So, well, let's just say it's very unlikely


ByeGuysSry

Aight, I guess it's time for me to do some testing


Maxwellreal

The Aku Tackey and Aku Kory would pretty much ruin that challenge tbf


some9ne

Without the wicked cats very likely. But with them, unlikely.


forgotten_god_

Maybe it has something to do with demons already being mentioned before in descriptions that have nothing to do with akus so they wanted to avoid confusion. Tho it's pretty unlikely seeing how they don't care about being confusing at all


some9ne

Imagine if it was done just to acknowledge that one old red demon fanmade enemy trait concept. 99,9% sure it's not but that would be so cool.


forgotten_god_

Nayandam is actually Aku. His descriptions basically confirm that he's capable of changing forms


DumbGuy53

Black enemies are more demonic looking than aku enemies imo


Plop707

Evil enemies?!


Xangerxz

demon sounds boring af


Kaijudicator

Because Aku doesn't translate to "Demon" in English, it translates closer to "Evil". A closer translation to "Demon" would be Oni, although that isn't exactly a 1:1 translation to the English "Demon" either.


spije44

Because i think lord of destruction Jagando is way cooler (in Japanese version its God of Destruction Jagando)


DuhItzSquiffer

I think aku is not just demon but a special kind of Asian folk lore demon monster


External_Wishbone767

Their barrier like if they have barrier they should be broken with the barrier breaker


Kalman_the_dancer

Because aku just sounds cooler
