Mastering the Endless Strawberry Cake Tower: Strategies for Dominating Each Tray in Cookie Run: Kingdom

In the newest version of Cookie Run: Kingdom, participants revisit a classic trial from bygone days: the Infinite Strawberry Cake Tower. This challenging and intricate event had previously been removed from the game but has now made a grand return. This guide provides in-depth strategies and tips on how to conquer this tower, especially focusing on the formidable Tray 60 and beyond. We'll cover which cookies to use, the best tactics for defeating challenging bosses, and additional insights to help you ascend to the top.

Understanding Key Game Mechanics

Automatic Cookie Upgrades

One of the most significant elements in the Endless Strawberry Cake Tower is the automatic upgrade system. When added to your team, all cookies are automatically upgraded to at least 4 stars and level 70. Therefore, even if your selected cookie is at a low level or has minimal star ratings, it will be significantly boosted once it joins the team. This eliminates the need for prior extensive grinding or upgrading and allows you to focus on strategic team formation.

Obtaining Essential Cookies

It’s worth noting that if you don’t own a particular cookie, you can acquire it by purchasing 20 Soulstones from the Mileage Shop (located in Gacha > Mileage Shop). This way, even rarer cookies can be easily obtained and used in your lineup, provided you have gathered the required resources.

Initial Stages and Preparation

Trays 1 to 59: The Foundation

To navigate through Trays 1 to 59, a balanced team composition is crucial. The recommended cookies for these stages are:

• Cream Puff Cookie
• Snapdragon Cookie
• Frost Queen Cookie
• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Burnt Cheese Cookie

This team offers a blend of survivability and consistent damage, ensuring you can handle the increasingly challenging enemies. The gradual increase in difficulty allows you to familiarize yourself with team dynamics and improve your strategies.

Tray 60: The M. Cursor Challenge

The notorious Tray 60 features M. Cursor, a boss known for his resilience and powerful shield. The optimal team for this challenge is:

• Snapdragon Cookie
• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Black Lemonade Cookie
• Twizzly Gummy Cookie
• Stormbringer Cookie

This lineup focuses on maximizing DPS (Damage Per Second), crucial for breaking through M. Cursor’s formidable defenses. High burst damage can make the difference between a drawn-out battle and a swift victory.

Advanced Stages Strategies

Trays 61 to 66: Consistency is Key

These trays can be conquered using the same team that proved effective in Trays 1 to 59:

• - Cream Puff Cookie
• - Snapdragon Cookie
• - Frost Queen Cookie
• - Creme Brulee Cookie
• - Burnt Cheese Cookie

Maintaining a solid and reliable team through these stages is essential, as it builds momentum and ensures steady progress without unnecessary setbacks.

Tray 67: A Shift in Strategy

As you approach Tray 67, adjusting your team composition to introduce more DEF reduction becomes necessary. A recommended team is:

• Snapdragon Cookie
• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Snow Queen Cookie
• Rebel Cookie
• Burnt Cheese Cookie

Using Rebel Cookie enhances your team’s ability to lower enemy defenses, while the leader role for Frost Queen Cookie leverages the Rally effect, providing additional boosts to the team’s overall performance.

Trays 68 and 69: Maintaining Momentum

For these stages, the following team proves effective:

• Snapdragon Cookie
• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Snow Queen Cookie
• Stormbringer Cookie
• Burnt Cheese Cookie

Minor adjustments, like switching out Stormbringer Cookie for a more potent front liner if needed, can further enhance your team’s effectiveness. Still, this composition generally ensures smooth progression.

Tray 70: Fire and Strategy

Tray 70 introduces a boss weak to Fire-type damage. However, even without a specialized Fire-type team, you can succeed with:

• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Parfait Cookie
• Linzer Cookie
• Frost Queen Cookie
• Stormbringer Cookie

Linzer’s debuffs and Parfait’s healing and buffing capabilities make a significant impact, allowing you to tackle the boss with a well-rounded approach.

Trays 71 to 77: Power Through

The stages between Trays 71 and 77 can be managed with the following team:

• Cream Puff Cookie
• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Snow Queen Cookie
• Stormbringer Cookie
• Burnt Cheese Cookie

Despite occasional casualties, this team’s overall power ensures you can advance without major hurdles. Consistent performance and adaptability are key during these stages.

Tray 78: Tanking the Damage

Tray 78 poses a challenge due to enemies capable of quickly overwhelming tanks. To counter this, use:

• Cream Puff Cookie
• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Snow Queen Cookie
• Icicle Yeti Cookie
• Burnt Cheese Cookie

Icicle Yeti Cookie’s ability to sustain damage while providing heals is crucial for maintaining team integrity and surviving prolonged battles.

Tray 79: Easy Activation

For this stage, the strategy revolves around utilizing Beascuits properly. Simply equip 2x Beascuits of at least Rare rarity at level 20. The team remains the same:

• Cream Puff Cookie
• Creme Brulee Cookie
• Snow Queen Cookie
• Stormbringer Cookie
• Burnt Cheese Cookie

This straightforward approach ensures that you can handle the stage’s requirement with ease.

Tray 80 and Beyond

Unfortunately, the guide currently lacks details for Tray 80, as it remains unconquered. Stay tuned for updates and additional insights as new strategies are developed.

By following this detailed guide and understanding the nuanced strategies for each stage, you can navigate the intricate Endless Strawberry Cake Tower and emerge triumphant. Equip your best team, utilize the automatic upgrades, and adapt your strategy as you advance. Good luck!
