The Eel is a Tier 3 Pet, available in the Star Pack. At the start of battle the Eel will gain a percentage of bonus Health in addition to its original Health. Levelling up the Eel will increase the percentage of its original Health that it gains as bonus Health.

Note that the Eel, just like every other Pet, is limited to 50 total health (and attack).

Strategy

The Eel is usually an underwhelming pet, but when obtained and levelled early, it can turn into a real threat for the opponents. At Level 2 it doubles its health, which makes it a powerhouse in the mid-game.

The most effective way to use Eel is to focus on increasing its Health until it starts reaching 50 Health at the start of battle. This is usually achieved by feeding it Peach and Broccoli and using a scaling pet like Tropical Fish. Eel should be paired with a pet like Moth and Dodo to increase its Attack and make it have good trades, occasionally even creating an early 50/50 pet. Fortune Cookie can be used instead of those pets, but it's unreliable and the extra damage is sometimes not enough.

Levelling up an Eel to level 3 usually isn't necessary unless trying to get the Achievement - it's not worth it because at level 2 you only need 25 Health to reach the maximum of 50 Health.

If your Eel has low base health, beware of it getting sniped by a Hawk or Lynx before it gains the bonus health.

If it's turn 9 or later, it's not recommended to buy Eel. It's too late to scale/level it and there are a lot better options at tier 5.
