The ability of the Cookie Run Kingdom Shadow Milk Cookie is called Act 1: Lies. It works as follows:

Act 1: Lies

Shadow Milk casts the Puppet Show ability at the enemy with the lowest Max HP. While it is active, the targeted Cookies and units around it take damage periodically. Notably, Puppet Show is not cast on enemy Shadow Milk Cookies as long as no other targets exist.

At the end of the Puppet Show, the Grand Finale triggers. Ṭhis ability deals damage to all enemies, proportional to Puppet Show’s target HP, and applies Taint on them. On top of that, if an enemy is knocked out before the Puppet Show ends, a Soul Phantom will appear at its location and take the damage instead. A portion of the damage taken by Soul Phantom is added to Grand Finale’s damage.

After being defeated, the Shadow Milk takes his Shadow Form and replaces himself with a Puppet. Until the Puppet is defeated, the Shadow Milk gains the Power of Deciet.

Shadow Milk Cookie summons the Eye of Truth when the battle commences. Based on the debuffs currently active on the entire team, the eye gains stacks of Truth. Once enough stacks are accumulated, the Eye will remove all the debuffs from the team, increase damage, and reduce the defense of the Shadow Milk Cookie.

When Shadow Milk gains the Power of Deceit, the Eye of Truth will turn into the Eye of Deceit, and gain some stacks of Truth. Once enough stacks are collected, it will fire the Tenet of Deceit attack and deal area damage (max 300,000). The Taint will also reset after the Tenet of Deceit attack.
