Mindbane

Mindbanes are formidable enemies encountered in Sagan-1.

Description
The foul mutation from Fell experimentation with etherium on humans. They dash to their victims, and unleash a deadly etherium energy shockwave. With their human nature erased, Mindbanes are like the walking dead.

Although Mindbanes can come out of spawn points, they are usually found in cocoons, that once popped, either reveal a friendly unit (scientist or worker) or a Mindbane.

As for their appearance, Mindbanes look very similar to humans, but with green eyes. Upon their death, these enemies drop the chunk of etherium in their head.

When it comes to combat, Mindbanes have low health and are relatively easy to kill. That said, they also have a powerful area-damage attack that could potentially kill units. They walk slowly, but have a dash ability that works similarly to a Guardian's Celerity ability, and is used to close the distance between them and the player's units.

Special: Dash (cooldown 5 seconds, range 400) super fast ground speed burst.

Strategy

 * Guardians are excellent options against them. if their Celerity ability is upgraded, they can usually kill these creatures before they are able to unload a shockwave.
 * Flamewalkers are a good choice as they are immune to the area damage and they can clear many groups of these enemies.
