UNIT NAME: Captain Tarpals 

ALIGNMENT: Light Side

CATEGORIES: Attacker, Gungan

Key Attributes:

• Heavy damage dealer for Gungans
• His Basic ability deals additional damage to buffed enemies and dispels all the buffs from them
• Ouch Time deals True damage to all enemies which scales with the number of debuffed enemies
• Becomes a juggernaut with his Territory Battle omicron

Inspiration:

• Probably the most recognizable Gungan outside of Jar Jar and Boss Nass, we wanted to make sure that we got Captain Tarpals into the game alongside his Gungan allies
• The visuals on his abilities really call back to the Battle for Naboo against the Trade Federation Battle Droids
• The names for the abilities are all based on his lines in The Phantom Menace, further reinforcing celebrating that film’s 25th Anniversary

Strategy Tips:

• Captain Tarpals Special ability, No Giben Up, can scale highly based on the number of debuffs present on the target enemy. Try to apply as many debuffs as possible to deal heavy damage.
  
• Utilize No Giben Up to Mark a high priority target that Gungan allies can follow up on.
  
• He gains a bunch of powerful benefits when the allied Shield Generator is active. Make sure to protect the Shield Generator at all costs.
• Captain Tarpals will counter attack enemies that are debuffed and deals True damage based on his max protection when attacking out of turn.
