Zapper
Shocks cells that touch you. Pair it with dash — touching alone barely does anything.
The idea is simple: anybody who touches you gets zapped. In practice one player kept bumping into targets and saw no shock, then worked out that he needed to dash (Space) into them after contact to actually deal damage.
Once that clicked, zappers felt great. Another creator stacked several and called them 'way better' than his poison setup.
