Badge Dojo · Water 2-5

Halfway through this grid, the recorded alternative that leans on evolved forms is worth a closer look.

In that alternative, lane 1 has Skinklet in row 2 with Capypapa in row 4, the middle has Clawzor in row 2 with Lullely in row 4, and Frostique stands alone in row 4 of lane 3. Maskfry and Swaystroll are not used.

Clawzor is the next form of Cribbler. It slashes with its claw for area damage and leaves enemies shredded, so it does the same job as Cribbler in the middle with more punch. Capypapa, the evolved form of Capywata, fires a citrus shot and peels oranges that heal allies, which gives the board the healing Lineup 1 lacks. In that alternative, Lullely draws health from healthy allies to heal those who are low and to power its water orb.

Frostique is the next form of Frostpaw. It throws a block of ice that slows its target and then breaks into sharp fragments that keep travelling through the enemies behind it. From the back of lane 3 that covers the whole lane, which is why the alternative leaves lane 3 otherwise empty.

That layout trades Lineup 1's pull-and-swipe trap for healing and a stronger ranged unit.
