Cheats

The Case Manager has a Lure Resistance of 2 rounds.

The Case Manager will wrap one Toon into a legal binding, forcing them to take 20 damage for Two Rounds.

• This occurs early at round 2, and then every 3 rounds after.
• If a Toon that already has Legal Bindings is given a new one, the damage dealt does not stack, but the duration of the effect will be extended by 2 rounds.
  • This duration extension is rare, though, as it can only happen when there are no other valid targets, such as when the game considers the other Toons present in battle to have gone sad that turn.
• Legally bound Toons will have a maroon roll of tape on their right wrist.

The Case Manager will throw an insurance paper at himself and up to two random Cogs, granting them the Insurance Status Effect.

• This cheat occurs on odd-numbered rounds.
• Cogs with Insurance are granted 2 rounds of Lure Resistance, standard Manager benefits (immunity to Cease & Desists and Pink Slips), and will heal 50 HP every round.
  • Healing can cause Overcharge (more explained below) with a maximum overheal of 100% the Cog's original HP.
  • This Overcharge can apply to both Grunt Cogs and any member of the Litgation Team.
• Cogs that have been Sued and receive Insurance will have the Sued effect removed, and Cogs that have been Lured for more than two rounds will have that effect reduced to one round (unlures the turn after being given Insurance).
• This status effect can stack in duration if it is reapplied to a Cog that already has insurance.
• Cogs with insurance will have green sparkles floating around their feet.

Once Cogs overheal by 50% their original HP, they will become Overcharged. Overcharged Cogs deal 50% more damage and can only be lured for 2 rounds. Grunt Cogs will also receive standard Manager benefits (immunity to Sues and Fires).

The Case Manager's cheats will be queued if he is Lured during the turn. A queued cheat will wait to be used on the turn the Case Manager unlures in addition to any other cheats he would use on that turn.

The Case Manager's Lure Resistance by 1 round and make him deal 40% more damage.

• Legal Bindings will deal 25 damage.
• This cheat will trigger once the Case Manager is the last Manager standing on his side.

Manager Synergy Cheats

The Litigation Team has unique benefits where different pairing of managers can completely alter how some cheats and its bonuses function.

Case Manager Synergy Cheats:

When paired with the Litigator:

• All Cogs that join will instantly be hooked on the Insurance Plan for two rounds.

When paired with the Stenographer:

• Once the Legally Bound Status Effect wears off on any Toon, the Stenographer will use Court Sanction on that Toon, dealing 25 damage and reducing Gag effectiveness by 25%.
• Once the Stenographer uses her Court Sanction on the Least Dangerous Toon (not to be confused with Unbound Sanctions), the Case Manager will throw a pair of Legal Bindings at a random Toon.

When paired with the Scapegoat:

• The Scapegoat builds rage 50% slower. Returns to normal if Case Manager is destroyed.
• When the Scapegoat is Enraged, the Case Manager will apply Legal Bindings to a Toon. When the Scapegoat's temper cools, the Case Manager will give Insurance to a Cog.
• Insurance Plan also gives a 15% damage boost to any affected Cogs. The Case Manager does not receive this buff, but the Scapegoat does.
• The healing of Insurance Plan is increased to 60.

Version History

v1.11.9 BETA

• Nearly every manager in the game that you can fight has new looks for Halloween and some new Halloween dialogue! Most new lines don't replace any existing ones.

v1.11.7 BETA

• Case Manager's Desperation phase was still a little weak, and Insurance was still just a shred too slow at helping freshly insured grunt Cogs.

• When Case Manager gives Insurance to a Cog that's Lured and doesn't already have Insurance, it will reduce the number of rounds that it's currently Lured to 1 instead of 2. For clarity, Insurance still gives 2-round Lure resistance, so when they get Lured again they will still stay Lured for 2 rounds max.
• If Case Manager gives himself Insurance, he correctly gets 2 rounds of it, instead of 1.
• The 15% damage buff given by Insurance when Case Manager is paired with Scapegoat is now correctly mentioned in Insurance's description.
• Legal Bindings given out while Case Manager has Desperation now deal 25 damage instead of 20.

v1.11.6 BETA

• Increased the damage of all attacks by 1.
• Reworked Scapegoat's synergies with Case Manager and Stenographer.
  • Scapegoat now has weaker rage passive buildup, and insurance Plan now gives any Cogs a damage boost. Heal boost from Insurance Plan decreased from 85 to 60.

v1.10.0 BETA

• Added unique attack lines to various Manager Cogs.
  • The Case Manager now has unique lines of dialogue for each of his attacks. Previously, all attacks shared the same lines of dialogue as his cheats.

v.1.8.0 BETA

• When Case Manager is paired with Scapegoat, Insurance Plan heals 85 instead of 50.
• Allowed Case Manager to insure cogs that are already insured, preventing rounds where he only insures himself.

v1.7.0 BETA

• Made some additional visual improvements to some Manager ability animations, such as Bayou Bellow, Insurance Plan, and Scapegoat's Rage.
• Re-animated most Cog animations from Toontown Online for every Cog body type.
• Introduced new Cog reaction animations to Sound Gags.
• Introduced a new Cog reaction animation to large Throw Gags (Birthday Cake and Wedding Cake).

v1.4.0 BETA

• Various balance changes have been made the Overclocked C.L.O. fight to make it more engaging, including moderate balance changes to the Litigation Team.
  • The Case Manager's defense has decreased from 75 -> 70.
  • The Case Manager's health has increased from 3750 to 4250.
  • Insurance Plan can now cause Overcharge at the appropriate threshold.
    • The cheat also has faster animations.
  • Insurance Plan can now target 3 Cogs instead of 2 (including the Case Manager).
• Three brand new loot drops have been added to each member of the Litigation Team!
  • Each manager will drop their respective sticker, as well as two returning drops from the Break the Law event.
    • Some of these returning drops have received updated looks and names.
    • The Case Manager now has The Book of Law and the Metallic Bowtie as Loot drops in addition to his own Sticker.
  • Toons will have a chance to earn drops from all four managers each time they complete the Overclocked C.L.O. battle, regardless of what managers they fought.

v1.3.0 BETA

• The Litigation Team now practices social distancing.
  • Cogs will now spawn between the two starting Managers.
• Cogs and Skelecogs now sport new high-quality models, fixing many visual issues with their old models and bringing their visual quality up-to-par with modern standards.

v1.2.7 BETA

• Certain minibosses have been given brand new voice samples!
  • Currently, this applies to:
    • The Litigation Team
• And in addition, there are now new, persistent visuals for the following events in-battle:
  • Case Manager's Insurance and Legal Bindings

v1.2.1 BETA

• Insurance will now remove the Sued status effect from Cogs when applied.
• Heals from Insurance will now display slightly faster.

v1.2.0.4 BETA

• Fixed a bug that would cause Sanction to trigger less often than intended while fighting the Stenographer and Case Manager in the Overclocked C.L.O. battle.

v1.2.0 BETA

• Dissatisfied with her losses against the Toons, the C.L.O. has taken up an offer from the Chairman to get back at them. In the new "Overclocked" version of her battle, the C.L.O. will be pulling out all the stops to create the greatest challenge that Toons have yet seen!
  • The Case Manager is added to the game.

Undocumented Changes

• The Case Manager's Gumball Sweetener was increased from 10 -> 15
