It's videos like this that help out the community so much like he said with returning and new players, videos like this. And if the new players know of this youtube channel will know of these videos and know what to do so they don't struggle in the long run Now I May not need this video because i've been playing for 2 years

[@soobsocool]

I wonder why so many people quit crk for 2 years then suddenly come back.. I quit crk 2 yes ago during the fq banner, then recently I saw an ad that was about crk, and I started a new account. I wonder if that is the case for other people.

By far one of the best videos you have done and I have watched/supported you for a long time. Honestly if I could make another vid recommendation It would be for a Video on best teams for each of the Guild boss battles. I know you did one for Avatar recently (I think) but a vid on each would be super helpful as I am coming back to the game after a 6 month break and feel like I'm starting all over again (Basically am as most of the cookies I had built for Meta are not so Meta anymore and there are a slew of new cookies I now need to obtain/build lol) Anyway, thank you for the GREAT/SUPER informative video! Greatly appreciated

[@bryanlub5432]

Hi hyrool just a quick question, im a new player and i just got the lvl 80 star jelly from the bounty event and was wondering if its worth using on a cookie that's lvl 60 (highest lvl i have). I dont have that many star jellies to upgrade my cookies at the moment. If so who would you recommend to use it on? (Frost queen, black pearl, crimson coral or white lily all 60s)

[@HyRoolLegend]

White Lily would be the one to use it on. Definitely going to lose out on some exp that you used to get to lv60 but still not bad to upgrade to lv80 for that massive stat boost!

[@pitaya_is_cool1408]

This is just my personal list, but I feel I have enough in game experience to give a somewhat accurate ranking (i did beast yeast hard without beascuits and part of it without white lily, plus I consistently rank in Elite 1 every arena season) This is mostly based around beast yeast (hard) and master mode since pretty much everything else can be cleared with whoever you want if they have decent investment. Crowd control: 1. Mozzarella and prune juice (only if used together) These two are pretty obvious. They both give DoTs and take the pressure off your tanks in a stackable way, which makes them great, especially for beast yeast to the point where with proper cycles you don't need a tank 2.White Lily Pretty much your all rounder. Almost every enemy has no resistance to her vines, so she does what prune juice and mozzarella do, if noticeably worse, with the advantage of more immediate damage and only one team slot that can be used on a healer. 3. Golden cheese, Black Pearl, Frost Queen These are all pretty good, though black pearl and frost queen need AT LEAST +10 crystal jam to work well. More enemies are immune to their debuffs tho so unless you need more concentrated damage (golden cheese) there are better options out there. Healers: 1.Parfait (+20 magic candy minimum) Your all rounder healing option. Gives you anything you want and more. Healing can be a bit lacking at times but she works great with partners so it's not a huge deal 1.5 snapdragon Honestly this could be number one, I just find myself using parfait more often. Snapdragon sacrifices healing in favor of shields and damage resist, which can be super helpful if you only need a bit more tankiness to beat a level, but oftentimes greater, more consistent healing prevails in higher levels 2. Cream puff (you need to own magic candy, upgrades are nice to have but optional) This is pretty much ONLY for master mode crispia. A heal to full and crit buffs are nice, but can leave something to be desired when not paired with another healer. (aka parfait saves the day once again) (honorable mention to pomegranate here, 1.5x attack is not to be underestimated, but her slot in the middle of teams makes her susceptible to getting sniped) Tanks: 1.Fettucine Easily the best tank out there. Can sponge an obscene amount of hits, has full healing, and what is practically a revive. Only downside is revive often doesn't help much as fettucine will almost always be your last cookie to die, but still not enough to take them down a tier as it's just a bonus anyways. 2. Icicle Yeti Can take pressure off your main tank, and is straight up INVINCIBLE as the only front liner. Needs a team to be built around them for full potential, but can be splashed onto a fettucine team with (preferably) frost queen and still achieve good results paired with a healer 3. Crimson coral More or less Fettucine-. Only advantage she has is saving team slots and having slightly higher damage resist, that being said when you need it you REALLY need it. (honorable mention to financier here, a great partner for creme brulee, but pretty much only inside arena, so she doesn't make the list here) Single Target: 1. Creme brulee Haven't used him much myself bc bias, but is an absolute MONSTER with robes. Financier helps, but is entirely unnecessary. 2. Captain Caviar This guy only BARELY made the list, and that's only because 1 single target unit seemed a bit.... off. Just use golden cheese, or honestly your favorite cookie. 3 crowd controls can substitute a single target while giving tons of buffs. (honorable mention to sorbet shark here, I've had a great time with them, but they're my favorite cookie so with them being hypermaxed and all, I don't think my experience is very accurate to that of others) Buffers: No. Any good units these days come with buffs packaged into the preexisting unit. For example, Parfait and snapdragon. I plan on updating this as time goes on, and answering questions about setups and toppings in the replies. I'd also be happy to take suggestions. Thanks for actually reading all this lol, and hope this helps.

[@Nelii_i]

Hi thank you so much for the informative video^^ It really helped me but I'm still a bit lost... the only cookies I have leveled up (lvl 50-60) are Pure Vanilla, Squid Ink, Moonlight, Linzer, Elder Faerie, Creme Brulee and Silverbell cookie. I have many others who based on my research are considered good but I really don't have any resorces to level them up. I was wondering if I can make a decent team with them or should I stop wasting time and resources on them and invest in someone else? My current team is PV, Moonlight, Squid Ink, Creme Brulee and Linzer. The team is 340k power and I feel like it's too little but I'm scared of using another team because then I'd feel like I wasted all my resources... I would be really glad if you could recomend me what I should do

[@Nelii_i]

I don't know if it's of any help but I also have Pitaya Dragon cookie, Sea fairy cookie, Snow Sugar cookie, Latte cookie, Tarte Tatin cookie, Werewolf cookie, Mercurial Knight cookie, Milk cookie, Black Lemonade cookie, Caramel Arrow cookie, Matcha cookie, Purple Yam cookie, Sorbet Shark cookie, Pumpkin Pie cookie, Candy Diver cookie, Pomegranante cookie Frilled Jellyfish cookie, Madeleine cookie and Milky Way cookie

[@flazeanimations]

So I wanna ask for the 2-1-2 team, for the dps one on the middle, should I use captain caviar cookie or tarte tatin cookie? And for the tank should I use burnt cheese cookie or financier cookie? (I've already chosen fettuccine as for the tank 1)

@@HyRoolLegend he is squishy with my team but I’ll give it a shot. Should I add him with cream puff and feta, burnt cheese and snapdragon?

[@LunarNoorstar]

Is crit resist any good for the cookies when upgrading the toppings? I've been trashing and trying to get more damage resist. But, am I wrong for neglecting crit resistance?

[@pitaya_is_cool1408]

Nope. Topping substat priority is as follows: Damage resist (4%-6%, everything else is kinda meh on a cookie that can use resonant toppings) Cooldown (1.3-2%, though the actual quality of the substats don't matter as much on something that isn't damage resist) Attack (can be changed with cooldown, depending on cookie's role in team) Crit% (if you're on the fence with a piece that has cooldown or attack, you could continue rolling with this) Everything else (basically trash)

well for boss stages like 17-30, it is best to use a cookie who is able to deal a ton of single hit burst damage like Creme Brulee and Tarte Tatin or even Captain Caviar. White Lily and Black Pearl are great but when it comes to boss battles the 3 epic cookies are actually going to be way better
