Trolling Thunder (villain)

“His tank is his pants.”

    —Villain Vault

Trolling Thunder is one of the trappable Tech villains in Skylanders: Trap Team. As Noodles was retreating to the Nightmare Express, Trolling Thunder appeared to delay the Skylanders from following him. Armed with a huge tank, it wasn't enough to stop him from having his means of attack destroyed and trapped.

Abilities

As a playable villain, Trolling Thunder can fire explosive projectiles from the cannon mounted on his troll tank. The projectiles have a long range and arc high, due to these, Trolling Thunder is able to hit enemies who are standing on high ground, or otherwise protected by a low barrier. Likewise, this makes it harder to hit enemies who are very close to Trolling Thunder or directly beneath the tank's cannon. This attack can be rapid-fired by repeatedly pressing the attack button.

Trolling Thunder can release a large, high-damage explosion directly in front of it. The recoil from the explosion will knock Trolling Thunder back a good distance, making it useful for damaging enemies directly in front of Trolling Thunder (in the cannon's blind spot) and creating distance, allowing them to be hit with the tank's cannon more easily.
