- Allowing a swallowed cat to remain inside after Belly Pound, giving Guillotina access to Digest.
Winning line
- Fight in open space and deny easy approach lanes so Toss and Jump do not create chained collisions.
- Treat 200 HP as the setup point: stabilize positioning and cooldowns before pushing her into phase 2.

Key triggers
Guillotina takes three actions per round and tries to close to melee range or inhale distant targets. At 200 HP or lower, she enrages at the start of her next turn, heals 50 HP, gains 100 max HP, cleanses debuffs, and enters phase 2. In phase 2, her movement increases and a swallowed unit can be hit by Belly Pound and then instantly killed by Digest.

Win conditions
Fight in open space and deny easy approach lanes so Toss and Jump do not create chained collisions. Treat 200 HP as the setup point: stabilize positioning and cooldowns before pushing her into phase 2. Free swallowed cats quickly in phase 2 before Belly Pound can convert into Digest.
Opener
- Use the open arena to spread immediately and make her spend movement before connecting with Toss, Jump, or Inhale.
Midfight
- Before crossing 200 HP, reset formation and make sure your team can answer a swallowed target after the phase transition.
- After phase 2 begins, prioritize freeing swallowed cats over marginal damage.
Finisher
- Close once Digest cannot remove a key cat and the team still has enough spacing to survive one more displacement sequence.

Run killers
- Entering phase 2 with the team clustered so one displacement immediately exposes another cat.
- Allowing a swallowed cat to remain inside after Belly Pound, giving Guillotina access to Digest.
- Treating 200 HP as ordinary damage progress instead of a phase breakpoint that heals, cleanses, and increases her max HP.
Positioning rules
- Do not stack cats in straight throw or inhale lines.
- Keep open landing space behind and beside important cats so knockback does not become collision damage.
- In phase 2, keep enough separation that Guillotina cannot swallow one cat while simultaneously trapping the rest of the team around her 2x2 body.

Useful
Healing or stabilization Reposition tools Backline damage that works without clumping
Avoid
