President Knabe

Character overview

President Knabe’s Cola attracts enemies before exploding. Use that delay to keep moving, and retain a direct attack for anything that reaches you before the can detonates.

  • Cola
  • Throwables
  • Delayed explosion
Signature item
Knabe Cola attracts enemies and then explodes.
Unlock code
Enter erstknacktsdannknallts through the main-menu key icon.

Strengths

  • The character throwable combines attraction with a delayed explosion.
  • Cola provides a specific recipient to build compatible throwable support around.
  • A menu code provides an unlock route without a road encounter.

Weaknesses

  • The explosion is delayed rather than immediate.
  • Enemies gathering near an obstacle can leave little room to move.
  • Gun-only support does not automatically improve the thrown Cola item.

Choose this character when

Choose Knabe when you want a throwable that groups enemies before damaging them.

Choose another character when

Avoid using the delayed explosion as your only answer to enemies already at close range.

Priorities

  1. Keep moving while enemies gather around the can.
  2. Preserve direct damage for nearby targets before the explosion.
  3. Choose activation support that accepts Cola rather than assuming all weapon modifiers apply.

Builds and equipment

Enter erstknacktsdannknallts at the main-menu key icon to unlock President Knabe.

The signature Cola attracts enemies and then explodes. Keep moving while enemies gather, especially when an obstacle could trap you beside the group. A backup weapon can deal with a nearby enemy before the delayed explosion, provided enough hands remain.

The Japanese notebook compares Knabe with Bananaperson because both use a character throwable. Choose activation support that accepts Cola; a thrown can does not inherit a gun-only effect simply because the gun is nearby.
