10 Best Support Cookies To Use In Cookie Run: Kingdom
Cookie: Run Kingdom's gameplay heavily relies on team composition. Players need to choose a good balance of tanks in defense or charge cookies, damage dealers in ambush, bomber, magic, or ranged cookies, and maintenance in healing or support cookies. With new cookies being consistently added to the game, players have a constantly changing and expanding collection of characters to choose from - so whilst some cookies, such as Cotton Cookie, used to be meta, they'll now be rarely seen in the arena.
Support cookies are some of the most versatile cookies in the game. They can serve as damage dealers, buffers, debuffers, or healers. Some support cookies are even better at keeping their teams alive than those exclusively focused on healing - which ones should you consider having on your team?
10 Frilled Jellyfish Cookie
A Damage Dealer And Debuffer Who Provides Some Healing
Frilled Jellyfish Cookie is one of the only cookies in the game to deal more than one type of elemental damage: water and electricity. As well as being a great damage dealer, she is a decent debuffer. Her "Frilled Snare" ability, prioritizing cookies, shackles up to five enemies. Her snare reduces the movement speed of the enemy team - she does extra water-type damage against snared targets but also inflicts the "zap" effect, which deals electricity damage. She will burrow into the ground to protect herself when using her skill, which grants her extra damage resistance.
Magic Candies are crafted from a cookie's information tab. They require soul essence, sugar crystals, and resonant ingredients.
However, if she gets defeated, she will dissipate into several little jellyfish, who will periodically heal the team. Her ability can be upgraded with her "Fluttering Jelly" magic candy, which requires swiftness crystals. This will allow her to shackle up to 20 enemies and increase the chance for the rest of the team to deal critical hits when she is burrowing. Frilled Jellyfish is one of the more powerful support cookies, but is not a good enough damage dealer to be meta, and has very situational healing.
9 Linzer Cookie
A Damage Dealer And Debuffer Focused On Taking Out Powerful Opponents
When using her skill, Linzer Cookie applies the "suspect" debuff to the enemy with the highest attack, and increases the chance for the rest of her team to land critical hits. Her skill deals damage to the target and slightly weaker area damage around them. Every time she uses her skill, she'll stack up "deduction" on the suspect up to seven times, decreasing their defense and buffing her team's critical hit damage.
"JUST MAKE IT GO DIAGONAL": The Latest Cookie Run Kingdom Secret Garden Event Has Fans Fuming
Cookie Run: Kingdom has a new Secret Garden event to take part in, but apparently, all is not as sweet as it appears.
The suspect debuff can even be applied to enemies with debuff immunity. When using her skill, Linzer Cookie is resistant to interrupting effects. Linzer cookie is a great debuffer for taking out powerful enemies and bosses, but will need the assistance of another support cookie, or a healer such as Okchun Cookie, to stay on the battlefield.
8 Cream Puff Cookie
Luck-Based Damage And Healing
Cream Puff's "Jellius Extremus" skill deals considerable light-type damage, healing, and buffing allies. Her ability cannot deal critical hit damage, but there is a chance of casting the spell with "great success." If this occurs, she deals more damage and provides the team with much greater healing.
Cream Puff's ability is another skill that can be enhanced with magic candy, which requires arcane crystals to activate. Her upgraded skill, "extra cream," will grant the team a passive effect which increases their chances of landing a critical hit, immunity to being stunned, and a boost to their attack. She will also receive a buff to her damage output every time she performs a successful spell and increased damage resistance.
7 Parfait Cookie
With A Fully Upgraded Magic Candy, Parfait Can Be A Great Stand-In For A More Powerful Healer
Though there are many better options, Parfait Cookie has surprisingly held up since her release. With the addition of magic candies, her improved healing abilities allow her to be a slightly better healer than Cream Puff, though she doesn't deal damage. Her usual skill without her magic candy upgrade provides periodic healing and increased defense and damage resistance. This is still decent, but you'll need her upgraded skill to stand a chance in the arena or higher-level enemies.
New Cookie Run: Kingdom Code Rewards Players With A Massive Amount Of In-Game Currencies
New codes for Cookie Run: Kingdom have arrived, bringing one code that gives players 3,000 of three different currencies to use for in-game rewards.
Her upgraded skill converts excess healing into an HP shield. It also grants debuff immunity to Parfait and the cookie with the highest attack stat, making her great for keeping your main damage dealers, such as Shadow Milk Cookie alive. Another bonus to her upgraded skill is that it provides extra periodic healing whenever an ally deals a critical hit.
6 Nutmeg Tiger Cookie
Buffs Other Fire-Type Cookies And Increases The Team's Defenses
Nutmeg Tiger Cookie is a more damage-focused support choice. Her ability, "The Great General," summons her elite guard to fight by her side, making her similar to Pumpkin Pie Cookie. This buffs all fire-type cookies and summoned creatures, healing them, and deals burn damage. The Elite guard consists of one rider and multiple fighters. If Burning Spice Cookie is also on your team, he will absorb their essence and gain the "Burning Nutmeg" buff after Nutmeg Tiger's guards have been defeated.
Summon | Effect On Burning Spice Cookie | Duration |
|---|---|---|
Fighter |
| 10 Seconds |
Rider |
| 10 Seconds |
The rider causes area damage whilst the fighters taunt the enemies and protect themselves with an HP shield and damage resistance buff.Despite being a support, Nutmeg Tiger's summons actually makes her able to tank. I personally wouldn't recommend solely relying on her tanking ability instead of using another good tank such as awakened Dark Cacao Cookie, as when using her I find that her summons tend to die quite quickly. However, they are very helpful as a second line of defense.
5 Peach Blossom Cookie
A Good Support Overall, But Is Particularly Effective In Beast-Yeast
Peach Blossom's "Heavenly Fruit" ability summons a peach tree that periodically heals the team andincreases their damage and debuff resist. His usual healing ability is quite average, but he provides massive additional healing for the cookie with the lowest HP, which makes him an effective healer. He also serves as a debuffer, inflicting the "Unripe Peach Bao" effect onto enemies. This deals periodic damage and slows their attack and movement speed.
However, Peach Blossom Cookie stands out because of his immunity to the "Apathy" effect. His ability grants other cookies resistance to Apathy, and grants Apathy targets increased attack and damage resist. This makes him extremely useful in episodes 3 and 4 of Beast-Yeast, especially if the player does not have Mystic Flour.
4 Peppermint Cookie
A Great Counter For Fire-Type Cookies
Peppermint Cookie uses their conch horn to summon a Peppermint Whale, which creates a large wave that deals water-type damage towards opponents. It also grants the team an HP shield and heals allies in proportion to the damage dealt. When using their skill, Peppermint Cookie is resistant to interrupting effects. Their skill can be upgraded using arcane crystals, sugar crystals, and refreshing peppermint.
Peppermint Cookie's Refreshing Waves ability does a lot more damage in PvE compared to PvP.
Their upgraded skill, "Refreshing Waves," dispells all "burn" effects inflicted by enemies and provides affected cookies with an extra HP shield, even effects which usually cannot be dispelled. This also applies to Burning Spice Cookie and Nutmeg Tiger Cookie's debuff effects. This makes them good to have on a team to counter these cookies, but also great on a team with them for more surviability, considering how both cookies can also burn their allies. Since Burning Spice is a must-have in the current meta, Peppermint Cookie is a very underrated support choice.
3 Star Coral Cookie
An Overall Reliable Healer
Star Coral Cookie is of the epic rarity and defaults to the rear position. Her "Twinkling Coral" ability heals her allies, and she is able to serve as a consistent buffer. She provides small HP shields, an increased chance of critical hits, increased attack speed, and immunity to being stunned.
Cookie Run: Kingdom - Best Toppings & Beascuits For Black Sapphire Cookie
The final member of the deceitful trio has arrived in CRK to join Shadow Milk and Candy Apple - how should you build Black Sapphire Cookie?
She also amplifies the effects of buffs for 12 seconds - her cooldown time is 14 seconds, so lowering her cooldown with toppings or beascuits will make her a very useful cookie on your team, especially when paired with another buffer. Her lantern provides periodic damage to enemies, making her immune to the sleep and drowsy effects. This means she can effectively face off against Moonlight Cookie - instead of succumbing to the effect, she will further restore her allies' HP.
2 Snapdragon Cookie
An Amazing Healer And Buffer Who Can't Take Damage
Despite their name implying they could be a dragon, Snapdragon Cookie is of a special rarity, and is a safeguarded cookie, meaning they completely bypass any damage. This means that when having one of these cookies on your team, you don't have to worry about losing them during battle, as they'll survive for as long as the rest of your team does. Snapdragon serves as a fantastic healer and buffer, providing periodic healing with their "Arcane blossom" skill and stun, damage, and debuff resist.
The BTS cookie collection also includes safeguarded special support cookies. They weren't worth mentioning in this list since they can no longer be obtained from the Gacha and are obsolete compared to the top pick. However, if you are an older player who managed to obtain them, they will be a great substitute.
The "Arcane Blossom" also grants an HP shield, and will increase the attack of the rest of the team. This ability has a special effect when applied to cookies of the dragon rarity, called "Draconic Lifeforce." This increases their maximum HP by 15%. There is currently only one dragon cookie in the game i.e. Pitaya Dragon cookie. However, this is expected to change after the release of Dark Enchantress.
1 Cream Ferret Cookie
Your Dependable Ferret Companion
Not to be confused with Cream Puff Cookie, Cream Ferret Cookie is another special support cookie who was released after Snapdragon Cookie. Their main ability, "Snuggly Ferret," grants powerful team healing and slightly weaker periodic healing. It also increases damage resistance, and increases the power and frequency of critical hits.
Cream Ferret will grant the "Fuzzy Scarf" buff to the cookie with the highest attack, or a cookie whose HP is below 50%. This increases their periodic healing, attack, debuff resist, and critical hit damage. If the cookie has less than half their HP, they will be granted the "Special Friend" effect, which gives them an HP shield equivalent to their maximum HP, and extra periodic healing.
Special cookies such as Cream Ferret and Snapdragon are some of the best choices for your arena team. The team limits for ancient, legendary, beast, and dragon cookies don't include cookies of the special rarity, meaning you can still have powerful support without sacrificing one of your major damage dealers. Cream Ferret Cookie is the best support character in Cookie Run: Kingdom, but Snapdragon Cookie is also a fantastic choice.
