Best Rock Tatari in Clash of Critters: All 42 Ranked

Rock evolution lines by tier

Tier	Line	Role	Why
A	Gibber → Turtuff → Rockshell → Terraton	Guardian	Rock Guardian whose spinning shell pierces and, in Horde Invasion, shields allies; longer single-lane reach than Rubblet. Terraton carries Aura: Rock.
A	Rubblet → Cobbledon → Rockzilla → Meteorax	Tank	The most-searched Tatari in the game: a basic Rock tank whose beam covers more lanes than Gibber, later Meteorax gains Aura: Rock. Short range keeps it out of S, but it is a safe first Rock project and evolves into Cobbledon at 6 stars after 300 Zobo kills.
B	Drilleroo → Cragolin → Borelord	Specialist	Rock Specialist with Stun + Knockback heavy hits; three stages, retreat skill "Where To?" in Horde.
B	Gopher → Watchroo → Bastogard → Cratzar	DPS	Rock DPS that burrows and Blinds; Cratzar (T4) is solid lane filler.
B	Humbug → Humbleetle → Zenscarab → Hierotyrus	DPS	Rock DPS whose dung balls linger and Slow; Hierotyrus (T4, Aura: Rock) added Jul 1, 2026.
B	Joeyo → Puncharoo → Kangachamp → Kaiseroo	Guardian	Rock Guardian whose charged punch inflicts Fragile; Kaiseroo (T4) added Jul 29, 2026.
B	Momopo → Lulupo → Lilypo → Gemmapo	Tank	Rock Tank that gains stacks after kills and punishes Frail enemies; clashcritters rates it A among starters, we keep it B until more late-game evidence.
B	Punchimp → Rockfu → Rockwu → Rockong	DPS	Rock DPS that summons clones; Rockong is a fun boss-stage pick.
B	Shardsnail → Gemsnail → Jewelsnail → Crystalsnail	DPS	Summons a Crystal Cluster that inherits its high DEF and tanks ahead of the front row; wiki notes it deals less damage than peers, so it is a utility pick.
B	Taptail → Rattlecoil → Clangnaga	DPS	Rock DPS sound waves that pierce on the rapid volley; three stages.
C	Dozy → Snoozebo	Tank	Rock tank that heals while snoozing — "good early/mid Rock tank" with a healer behind it.
C	Mudrump → Rockhog	DPS	Mud balls that Slow; the weakest of the Blue Rock lines.

Where Rock Tatari matter most

Chapters: bring Rock lanes against Lightning Zobos and bosses (see the Zobo codex for each boss's element) and never against Grass.
Rock Badge Dojo: a 5v5 ladder of 30 stages; the stage 1-10, 2-10 and 3-10 masters award badges that buff every Rock Tatari. Full opponent teams on the Rock Dojo page.
Horde Invasion: Rock counters the Lightning bosses in the 35-wave rotation — see the Horde tier list.
Evolution trials: T3 trials are element-specific (for example Grass lines must shoot 20,000 pinballs, Rock lines use 5,000 Energy Drinks in Goldrush) — see the evolution guide.
