Bandit

What it looks like

The Bandit is a Legendary card that is unlocked from the Rascal's Hideout (Arena 13). It spawns a fast, single target, ground-targeting, melee, ground troop with moderate hitpoints and moderate damage. If there are ground units between 3.5 and 6 tiles of her, she will stop moving and begin charging a dash attack which takes 0.8 seconds to execute, and will deal double damage. She is immune to damage during her dash. She appears similar to an Archer, except that she has white hair, wears a mask, a forest green cloak with a team-colored patch, a brown belt and gloves, and a team-colored tunic, and wields a blackjack. A Bandit card costs 3 Elixir to deploy.
