Flyte

Flyte is an excellent All-Rounder Toon with 4-star Movement Speed, 3-star Stealth, and 4-star Extraction Speed. His Active Ability, Gust, places a wind zone at his location for 10 seconds that grants any Toon passing through it a 15% Movement Speed boost lasting 3 seconds. His stat distribution is nearly identical to Tisha's, with the only difference being their Skill Check and Extraction Speed star ratings are swapped — Flyte trades slightly worse Skill Checks for faster extraction. This makes Flyte a versatile pick who can contribute meaningfully to both machine completion and team mobility, filling whatever role the team needs most on any given floor.

Gust is particularly valuable when supporting slow Toons like Connie, Soulvester, and Shrimpo, all of whom sit at 1-star Movement Speed and can struggle to escape fast Twisteds such as Twisted Cocoa and Twisted Shelly. A key distinction from Tisha's similar ability is that Gust applies to Flyte himself, not just teammates. Tisha's buff does offer a higher 25% Movement Speed increase for a slightly longer duration, but being unable to buff herself limits Tisha's personal survivability. Flyte's self-applicable buff makes him significantly safer to play aggressively, and in scenarios where the team is being chased together, a single well-placed Gust can boost the entire group including Flyte simultaneously.

Practical applications for Gust cover a wide range of situations. It can be used as an escape tool similar to Flutter's Floaty Dash, deployed in front of teammates to both buff them and position Flyte ahead to draw Twisted aggro, or activated at the start of a floor to give the distractor an early speed advantage. During Elevator rushes, placing Gust at a strategic distance allows approaching Toons to receive maximum benefit — pay attention to who is still outside and time the activation when the most players are nearby, since the gust disappears after its duration expires. Save the ability for Panic Mode once a majority of Machines have been completed, as this is when the speed boost matters most. When supporting distractors during dangerous encounters, avoid randomly buffing them without warning since the sudden speed change may throw off their pathing. Ideal moments include floor starts, Elevator rushes during Panic Mode, encounters with Twisted Vee or Twisted Pebble, or when the distractor appears to be struggling. Try to anticipate their route and place the gust ahead of them rather than getting in their way.

During Blackouts, Flyte's Gust produces a small amount of light. While not dramatic, this illumination can help players navigate dark floors or locate items like Bandages and Health Kits that would otherwise be difficult to spot. Highlighting the Elevator or the correct path during Panic Mode may also assist newer players on low graphics settings, making Flyte one of the few non-light-themed Toons with utility during Blackout events. This secondary benefit is easy to overlook but can prove decisive on particularly dark floors where visibility is severely limited.

For Trinket combinations, Distraction builds center around Dog Plush, which unlocks the distractor role at 19.3 walk speed. Pair it with Speedy Shoes to reach 20.2 walk speed and outwalk most Twisteds slower than Twisted Toodles and Twisted Shelly, or use Clown Horn or Ribbon Spool to push walk speed to 21 — best suited for duo-distracting. Vanity Mirror reaches 35.75 run speed when active, outrunning nearly all Twisteds during Panic Mode. Train Whistle prevents Twisted Vee's slow and Ichor Leak effects, while Diary supports 3-star distractors without stealing aggro and Scrapbook prevents other 3-star Stealth Toons from taking aggro away. For Extraction builds, Magnifying Glass is the core Trinket that leverages Flyte's 4-star Extraction Speed. Combine it with Vee's Remote for quicker floor progression, Participation Award to maximize Skill Check extraction at the cost of window size, Thinking Cap for easier Skill Checks, or Mime Makeup to avoid attracting Twisteds on missed checks. Ghost Snakes In A Can reduces Gust's cooldown to 45 seconds, and adding Sweet Charm on top brings it down further to approximately 43 seconds.

Overall, Flyte functions very similarly to Tisha but with a slight stat swap favoring extraction over skill checks, a lower-percentage speed buff that compensates by applying to himself, and the added Blackout light utility. His flexibility as both extractor and support makes him a strong pick for any team composition, especially when the lobby includes slower Toons who benefit most from Gust. Teams running Flyte alongside a dedicated distractor should coordinate ability timing to avoid disrupting the distractor's pathing while maximizing the speed boost for fleeing extractors.
