Tatari roster and build priority
This Clash of Critters Critters database is a roster hub for Tataris: the collectible units you build, evolve, and place into teams against Zobos. Start with the S+ picks, scan the full list, then use the decision tables before spending Candy, duplicates, or event rewards.
Clash of Critters Critters are best understood as the game's collectible roster, while the individual units are usually called Tataris in official store copy and English guide coverage. The game pitch centers on collecting many unique Tataris, evolving them through stronger forms, and using them in tower-defense style battles against zombie Zobos.
That terminology matters for search and for players. A new player may search for a Clash of Critters Critters list, but the upgrade screen, tier-list articles, and team-building discussions often say Tatari. This page uses both terms deliberately: Critters for the broad database intent, and Tatari for the unit-level decisions players make after they identify a name.
The current public source picture is uneven. English guide sources provide a useful launch roster and rank groups, especially for evolution priority, but most exact elements, rarities, skills, and full evolution lines still require in-game verification. Instead of inventing missing facts, this database separates confirmed names from tactical advice and gives editors a clear path for future updates.
How to use this database
Use this page like a wiki roster, not as a one-line ranking. Identify the Tatari, check the public priority, then connect it to your current team problem.
Use the gallery and roster table to recognize the Tatari. Local icons are available for many names, while missing portraits are marked as data gaps.
S+ and S names from current English tier-list coverage are safer upgrade candidates than lower-ranked or single-source names.
Choose a Tatari because it solves damage, wave pressure, survival, or element coverage, not just because it appears in a high tier.
Featured picks
The S+ group is the best first stop for players trying to decide which evolution lines deserve early attention.
| Preview | Tatari | Public priority | Why it is featured | Build note | Next page |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Buddi | S+ | Listed in the highest public evolution-priority group. | Safe first candidate, but verify role and element in game. | Buddi profile | |
| No local icon yet | Dewgrub | S+ | Ranked with the top early evolution lines. | Track duplicates before committing rare resources. | Tier list |
| No local icon yet | Punchimp | S+ | High-priority launch pick in English tier-list coverage. | Likely damage-focused by name, but role must be verified. | Tier list |
| No local icon yet | Taptail | S+ | Appears in the top public priority group. | Confirm skill behavior before labeling it carry or support. | Evolution guide |
| No local icon yet | Voltfawn | S+ | One of the named S+ Tataris in current English coverage. | Do not assume element from name until the in-game tag is checked. | Team builds |
Visual database
These local thumbnails give the page the database-style visual signal players expect. More icons should be added as the public roster is verified.

Decision aid
Beginners should use rank, duplicates, and team need together. A high-ranked Tatari still waits if you cannot evolve it or do not need its role today.
| Player situation | Best Tatari direction | Why it helps | Best next page |
|---|---|---|---|
| You just unlocked roster choices | Start with S+ or S candidates you actually own. | They have the strongest public priority signal. | Clash of Critters tier list |
| You have many duplicates of one A/B unit | Compare cost against an S+ unit stuck at low copies. | A ready evolution can beat a theoretical future pick. | Tatari evolution guide |
| Stages fail because waves pile up | Look for AoE, control, or lane coverage after verification. | The problem is pressure, not just raw rank. | Best team builds |
| A boss keeps surviving | Prioritize focused damage and correct element tags. | Boss fights often punish scattered upgrades. | Zobos enemy guide |
| You are F2P and resources are tight | Build a small core, then hold lower-tier collection units. | It avoids spending Candy on bench Tataris. | Beginner guide |
Team roles
Formation guide coverage confirms that roles such as AoE, DPS, debuffs, and elements matter, but most unit-by-unit labels still need direct verification.
| Role or tag | What it does | When it matters | Data confidence | Related guide |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single-target DPS | Focuses damage into one priority enemy or boss. | Boss Challenge, durable Zobos, late-stage blockers. | Role concept supported; unit mapping needs screenshots. | Team builds |
| AoE or wave clear | Hits groups or lanes so waves do not stack up. | Horde-style pressure and crowded campaign waves. | Role concept supported; exact Tataris need verification. | Gameplay |
| Control or slow | Buys time through slows, stuns, lane disruption, or debuffs. | Fast enemies, row jumps, and fights where damage needs ramp time. | Guide videos mention debuff-style tactics; map per unit later. | Zobos |
| Support | Improves carries through buffs, healing, shielding, or utility. | When one carry is already worth protecting. | Needs in-game ability text per Tatari. | Roles guide |
| Element counter | Uses the right element for the encounter. | Bosses and events where the enemy type creates a clear mismatch. | Elements matter; full chart still needs verification. | Enemy counters |
Elements should be treated as a serious part of the Clash of Critters Critters database, but not as a place for guessing. Formation guide coverage mentions elemental planning, including Earth DPS examples for specific boss strategies, yet the public sources do not provide a clean element chart for every Tatari name in the roster.
The practical rule is simple: use element notes as a decision layer after the name and role are confirmed. If a boss or Zobo type keeps beating you, check whether the team lacks the right element or whether the problem is actually wave control, range, or survival. Once in-game screenshots confirm element tags, this page should grow a second database table that maps each Tatari to element, counter use, and best modes.
Evolution
Public English coverage agrees that evolution priority matters more than collecting every name at once.
| Decision | Use this rule | Why it protects resources | Next step |
|---|---|---|---|
| Choosing first evolution line | Prefer S+ or S units that already help your active team. | High rank plus active use is stronger than rank alone. | Compare ranks |
| Spending duplicates | Check duplicate requirements in game before feeding copies. | Costs can vary by star level and stage. | Read evolution guide |
| Building lower tiers | Only invest if the Tatari solves your exact blocker. | It keeps collection bias from draining Candy. | Check enemies |
| Planning future profiles | Add icon, element, role, skill, availability, and evolution chain together. | A complete profile is more useful than a thin name page. | Example profile |
Profile routes
Use individual pages when a Tatari already has enough local data for a more detailed decision.
Accuracy
This section is intentionally visible. It keeps the page useful now while making the next data collection step obvious.
| Missing data | Why it matters | How to verify | Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elements for each Tatari | Needed for counters, bosses, and event planning. | Capture in-game roster or profile screenshots. | High for S+ and S names. |
| Roles and skill text | Needed before giving team-build advice. | Record ability tooltips and test lane behavior. | High for profile pages. |
| Rarity and availability | Needed for F2P value and beginner recommendations. | Check summon pool, code rewards, events, and story rewards. | Medium high. |
| Evolution chains | Needed to connect first-stage names to later forms. | Verify name changes in evolution screen or official media. | High for S+ names. |
| Missing local icons | Images improve trust and scanning on database pages. | Add local assets under assets/critters/thumbs/ with width and height. | Medium. |

FAQ
Clash of Critters Critters are the collectible units used in teams against Zobos. Official store copy and English guides usually call individual units Tataris, so this page treats Critters as the search term and Tatari as the in-game unit term.
For practical roster browsing, yes. Critters is the broader game and SEO term, while Tatari is the unit name used when guides discuss collecting, upgrading, and evolving a specific creature.
The safest starting point is the S+ group cited by current English tier-list coverage: Buddi, Dewgrub, Punchimp, Taptail, and Voltfawn. Check your duplicates, role needs, and current stage before spending resources.
It includes the currently sourced public roster names from English guide coverage plus local images for confirmed site assets. The official listings mention 100+ Tataris, so this database will expand as more names, roles, and icons are verified.
Names and tier groups are source-backed when marked, but most element, role, rarity, and skill fields still need in-game verification. The page separates confirmed names from tactical notes so players do not mistake guesses for data.
Start with the full roster table, filter mentally by tier or build priority, then open the tier list, evolution guide, or team builds page depending on the decision you are making.
English guide coverage says evolution depends on duplicate copies for early stages and trial requirements for later stages. Because duplicate requirements can vary by star level, confirm the cost in game before committing rare copies.
Public sources list many names and rank groups, but they do not always publish exact role, element, rarity, skill text, or full evolution chains. The verify note tells editors what still needs a screenshot or in-game check.
Beginners should use this database to identify units and use the tier list to decide investment priority. The database answers what a Tatari is; the tier list answers how urgently to build it.
