Strategy
Due to Bytes expensive placement cost and weak slowdown effect, combined with the fact it can't slow enemies above 200hp, they are not recommended for the early game. Level 5 Byte completely stops any enemy without the electricity or void property for 5 seconds. This is particularly valuable against faster enemies. Level 4 and 5 Bytes effects don't overlap with each other, allowing one to be applied right after the other, stalling enemies for longer. Thanks to this, Level 4 can be put a tad bit earlier on the track than Level 5 to greatly increase the likelihood of speedy enemies being successfully paralyzed by Level 5. Byte synergizes very well with Hotdog Frank and Yasuke, as they can deal massive damage to stunned enemies with their melee attacks. Much like Dumpster Child, it is recommended to set targetting to random, so that each attack from bursts hits a different enemy, increasing Byt'e's overall consistency and effective coverage.
Patch history
Byte used to do damage, but it was removed in the Cloudy Catastrophe update. There was a dancing Byte in the old lobby. They were found in the clothes shop area. During any Christmas Event, they had a Santa Hat on Top of themself. The dance in question happens to look similar to the Shuba Duck dance meme, as it turns twice in a row then spins around fully, then repeats. Currently, the dancing Byte can be found in Juniper's shop next to the "Tower Heroes" logo on the right. Byte was made by Scientist. Byte has an extremely similar appearance to Virus and Malware, this is specially the case on level 3 and 4 Byte respectively.
