Stake

Stake, the mechanized snek that strikes with the force of a full-speed truck.

Competitive Role: Attacker

Overview
His primary gimmicks are lots of Bleeding, self-damage boosts, and being the embodiment of "Now that's a LOTTA DAMAGE!". However, while its stats could easily make it OP rank from how disgustingly high they are, the only thing holding it back is that the only negative status effect it can inflict is Bleed (Special has AoE Mega Freeze, which is fantastic, but unreliable since it's a Special) which makes it less useful against opponents with traits that give them Bleeding immunity.

Pros:
 * Look at those nightmarish stats! 3,685 Power is around the power VIP and Nemesis monsters have!
 * Great trait
 * Finally a new "S tier" non-exclusive Water monster!
 * IT'S NOT EXCLUSIVE!
 * 50 damage AoE + Bleeding
 * Self- Damage Boosts
 * Low cooldowns
 * 75 Water dmg + Bleeding move w/ 1 CD
 * Slightly low stamina costs
 * Special has AoE Mega Freeze
 * Somewhat breaks the meta from how nearly OP it is

Cons:

You need to pay to get him without cells most likely
 * Limited to just Bleeding, which doesn't matter much considering that it hits like a speeding truck.
