Betty Review: Is This Plushie The Ultimate 3-Star Tank?

"Don't let the cotton candy exterior fool you. Betty brings the Gargoyle's legendary stone skin to the 3-star arena. But is her 90% damage reduction enough to offset her pillow-soft attack? We break down the stats, the 'Softskin' mechanic, and why she might just be the most annoying flank in Rush Tournaments."
