Win the Wave First
If enemies leak, add control or sustain before adding more burst. A team that survives to the boss gets more value from every upgrade.
- Control
- Sustain
- Frontline
- Priority-target cleanup

Clash of Critters Horde Invasion Guide
Horde Invasion is not just a damage check. The best clears combine control, sustain, target cleanup, and a formation that does not fall apart when waves stack up.
Prepare for Boss Windows
When waves are stable but boss timers are tight, switch one utility slot to a single-target damage unit and check element matchups.
- Voltfawn-style burst
- Punchimp-style damage
- Taptail-style cleanup
- Element advantage checks
Horde Skill Milestones
Community pages track special Horde skill breakpoints, so revisit your roster after star-ups. A unit can become better once a mode-specific milestone is unlocked.
- Review stars
- Review skill levels
- Retest after evolution
- Compare with Horde tier list
Daily Prep
Do codes, feeding, pinball, and boss attempts before serious Horde pushes so the run uses your best available account state.
- Redeem codes
- Feed core units
- Spend pinballs
- Upgrade one failing role
Why is my normal tier-list team failing Horde?
General rankings include boss and campaign value. Horde punishes fragile teams, so wave control and survival often rank higher.
When should I add more damage?
Add burst after the team stops leaking waves and only loses to bosses, timers, or high-priority targets.
