≈Score is close: the simulator estimates one detail of Leafy Trap, Wicked Mirror. See why
Leafy Trap: when picking purchases the simulator uses a simplified version of this card, so it may buy it less than it should.
Wicked Mirror: when picking purchases the simulator uses a simplified version of this card, so it may buy it less than it should.
Fires a volley of 4/5/6/10 bullets at the enemy, each dealing 40% damage.
Main piece (★): the plan revolves around it.
Community tier list, April video (S): S with the slow Variant. Without it (A), its burst still breaks the snail Boss's shields and wins games on that Boss.
Attacks 6/7/8/15 enemies at once, dealing 40% damage.
Community tier list, April video (S): With Variant II it attacks again on every kill and clears the wave alone. Without it (A): good early damage, hits many enemies, breaks shields.
Magic (5 sec): Transfers the 1/1/1/3 highest-HP Rush Squad Units on the field to the opponent, with 15%/30%/60% of their Max HP. Make this Minion Sleep.
Part of the plan: Control: stall the game and win late.
Works together with: Berrinetta, DandeLion, Rosen Death, Wicked Mirror, Valkyris.
Community tier list, April video (B): Sends the opponent's strongest Rush unit back to their side. Dangerous against single-carry decks, but depends on its 5 s timing and needs more testing.
Don't have it? Use Headless Jack (score +10.0)
Can be obtained from Harvest Pots, Recruitment, and the U-Pick Farm.
Ready: Temp demotes 1/2/4 enemy Minions by -1/1/1/3★.
Main piece (★): the plan revolves around it.
Part of the plan: Control: stall the game and win late.
Works together with: Berrinetta, DandeLion, Leafy Trap, Wicked Mirror, Valkyris.
Community tier list, April video (B): Demotes enemy stars and lowers speed and damage. Very annoying against Tomato Twister (stops it from growing), but not a win condition.
Ready: If the enemy's total ATK is higher than yours, this Minion Temp gains 45%/70%/100%/200% of the total ATK difference.
Part of the plan: Control: stall the game and win late.
Works together with: Berrinetta, DandeLion, Leafy Trap, Rosen Death, Wicked Mirror.
Tier list (B, the wiki's rating): Ready: if the enemy's total ATK is higher than yours, it gains Temp ATK equal to 45%/70%/100% of the difference. It's the comeback card: the further behind you are, the harder it hits. When you're ahead it does nothing, and its attack is slow (3.2 s). In the deck builder, it shows up in several of the top Summon decks.
Don't have it? Use Pumpkin King (score +10.0)
Can be obtained from Harvest Pots, Recruitment, and the U-Pick Farm.
How to play the match

Questions
Which card should I level first?
Greenkeeper: taking it to level 10 raises the score by 10.0, more than any other card in the deck.
Can I play it without spending money?
Yes: no card in the deck is from the paid Battle Pass.
Is it worth chasing a Variant?
The best is Apple Sheriff II instead of Apple Sheriff: +10.0 score. Variants come from Rumble Chess and Variant Recruit (unlocked at 700 Trophies).
What if I don't have Greenkeeper?
Use Cabby Trainer instead (score +5.0). It's the card that matters most: without it the score drops 19.0.

Drags the match out to win on the clock. Rosen Death and Leafy Trap buy time while your HP holds.
Deck builder scores at level 8 (1,000 to 2,199 Trophies), from simulated matches that run until a Captain dies, as in the game. Opponents: 150 random decks and the 6 meta decks the builder generated itself. The fight was calibrated on Oct 10 with my own real matches.
Oct 06, 2026: guide rebuilt in the new format (versions, round by round, leveling order, Variants and matchups), with the recalibrated deck builder and APK 2.0.1021 numbers.
