UNIT NAME: Princess Kneesaa

ALIGNMENT: Light Side

CATEGORIES:  Light Side, Attacker, Ewok

Key Attributes:

• Assists every time an Ewok casts a Special ability 
• Provides survivability to Ewoks 
• Gives other Ewoks a way to provide True Damage through assists

Inspiration:

• Leia’s time on the forest moon of Endor had her befriending the Ewok tribe of Bright Tree Village. With the Galactic Legend version of Leia Organa coming for the 40th Anniversary of Return of the Jedi we really wanted to include a new Ewok to the game alongside her. Princess Kneesaa jumped out at us as a fun Ewok to add to the game, and older fans will recognize her from her time on the Ewoks cartoon alongside Wicket and others.
• We liked the thematics of Chirpa’s lead, but it needed a lot of help to lift into relevancy
• “Working on Princess Kneesaa has been fun, my heart nearly exploded when I found out I was going to design her. Ewoks have always been my favorite creatures/species in the Star Wars galaxy. Without giving away too much, expect Kneesaa to raise Ewoks’ power level and lift their meta rankings.”

Strategy Tips:

• Don’t let how cute she is distract you
• Ideal for all Ewok team
• Build for Crits

FAQ:

• Why don’t the extra attacks from her basic gain turn meter when that’s the whole deal of Chirpa’s team?
  • We wanted her basic to provide a burst of damage to help with the “death by papercut” feel of the team, but having turn meter from each hit was getting a bit too much into infinite train land.
• Do I need Princess Kneesaa to unlock Galactic Legend Leia Organa?
  • Yes, at Relic 7
• How many people in the studio know the words to and can sing the theme song to the Ewoks cartoon?
