Wave 1-25 (No Checkpoint)

AOE is the only safe opener. Build around Luffy with Diamond or Gold mutation. Do not place your strongest unit in the lane that loses most often.

Wave 50 boss

The first real boss gate. Bring a Corrupted-trait or Void Emperor-trait carry. AoE clears the boss wave adds first, then focus the boss.

Wave 75 plateau

Lane pressure peaks around Wave 75. Switch from early-game AOE compositions to a God-rarity carry plus one AOE filler.

Wave 100+

Endgame. Corrupted trait plus God-rarity units plus Sky Spire prep is the only reliable build. Wave 100 clears require the full endgame build.
