Key triggers
Crater Maker cycles through Crater Howl, Consume, Pukewave, and Rampage as primed attacks. Taking damage from an ability changes the attack Crater Maker is preparing and fires side projectiles. Consume instantly destroys the unit or object on the tile directly in front of its mouth.

Fight plan
The safest way to approach the fight without reading a wall of text.
Win conditions
Read the stalks and the primed attack before deciding whether to damage Crater Maker or reposition. Keep the mouth tile clear whenever Consume is queued. Use ability damage deliberately because each hit can alter the next primed attack and fire side projectiles.
Opener
- Identify the first primed attack from the head stalks and spread before spending ability damage.
Midfight
- Manipulate the primed attack only when the resulting pattern is safer for your current board.
- Reposition before each queued attack rather than trying to race the 280 HP bar.
Finisher
- Commit only when the next primed attack and the reactive side shots cannot punish the finishing sequence.

Run killers
- Leaving a cat on the Consume tile in front of Crater Maker when the instant-destroy attack resolves.
- Triggering reactive side projectiles with repeated ability hits while fragile cats are exposed on both flanks.
- Clumping before Crater Howl, Pukewave, or Rampage and losing multiple units to one primed pattern.
Positioning rules
- Never end a vulnerable cat directly in front of the mouth when Consume is the current threat.
- Keep the left and right firing lanes clear before using abilities that will trigger reactive projectiles.
- Leave enough open board space to survive Rampage without being pinned against walls.
