The video discusses the strengths and weaknesses of the "Cheetah" build in a game. The Cheetah has the highest mobility stat, allowing it to chase down herbivores, and has a few unique abilities such as a longer tail for stability and dark streaks under its eyes for accuracy. However, its over-specialization in agility leaves it with vulnerabilities, including low defensive stats, thin skin, and no body fat, making it unable to take many risks or defend itself. The Cheetah's non-retractable claws also debuff its potential slash damage and eliminate one of its signature combat moves. Despite its high intelligence and ability to organize coordinated attacks, the Cheetah's poor defensive skills make it difficult to defend a kill or complete the game's escort mission. The video concludes that the Cheetah is a bottom-tier build and may disappear from the meta if it doesn't change its strategies.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text:
1. The cat build has been a dominant force in the meta since its introduction.
2. Cheetahs have the highest mobility stat in the game.
3. Cheetahs can close the distance on any fleeing player at top speed.
4. Cheetahs have a longer tail than most cats, granting them bonus stability and a tighter turn radius.
5. Cheetahs have dark streaks under their eyes, reducing glare and granting bonus accuracy on attacks.
6. Cheetahs have non-retractable claws, which provides extra traction while running but debuffs their potential slash damage.
7. Cheetahs have a claw on the back of their paws that is not used for traction and remains sharp, giving them a bonus to grappling attempts while pouncing.
8. Cheetahs have poor defensive skills and cannot afford to take many risks while on the attack.
9. Cheetahs are vulnerable to hyena and lion players stealing their kills.
10. Cheetahs have a low spawn rate and struggle to protect their offspring.

12. Cheetahs' movement speed is severely hampered by obstacles and is only useful in open terrain.
13. Cheetahs' blunted claws are less useful for climbing, removing a potential defense against predators.
14. Cheetahs lack access to the ability "roar".
15. Cheetahs' player base is small, making it difficult for them to gain new evolution points.
