Cookie Run Crumble hands you a growing roster of Cookies, but only a handful carry teams through boss fights and late stages. The rest fill early-game gaps or serve narrow support roles. To cut through the guesswork, here is where each of the 37 summonable Cookies lands right now, along with the reasoning behind the top placements.
Quick answer: Oven Wanderer Cookie and Wind Archer Cookie sit at the very top as the two TSSR units, followed by a strong S-tier group of SSRs including Vampire, Twizzly Gummy, Milky Way, Strawberry Crepe, and Dark Choco. Aim your early pulls at those.
How this ranking was decided
Placement weighs six things together: story progression, boss fights, team utility, raw damage output, survivability, and long-term value into the endgame. A Cookie that carries early but falls off later ranks lower than one with steady scaling. This reflects the current build as of August 2026 and covers all 37 summonable Cookies.
| Tier | What it means |
|---|---|
| S | The strongest Cookies, with high damage, strong utility, or survivability and few drawbacks. Top priority to build. |
| A | Excellent in most content, but may need specific teams or carry minor limits versus S tier. |
| B | Solid for early and mid-game, less impactful once you reach endgame content. |
| C | Niche picks that work in specific teams but sit lower on the investment list. |

S tier: the Cookies to build first
The two TSSR Cookies anchor this tier. Oven Wanderer Cookie stacks a 81.8% Charge DMG hit into an 86% ATK explosion, and its chained charges plus flame damage over time make it a reliable group-clearer. Wind Archer Cookie leans on a short 2.5-second cooldown for near-constant uptime, with the Last Wind ability landing 304.4% of ATK and piercing up to five enemies for both burst and crowd control.
The SSR half of S tier is just as important because you can actually pull these more often. Vampire Cookie’s single-target strike of 431.5% ATK targets high-attack enemies first, which matters against dangerous late-stage threats. Twizzly Gummy Cookie chains up to four extra targets every 3.5 seconds for steady damage, while Milky Way Cookie and Strawberry Crepe Cookie handle area clearing and knockback. Dark Choco Cookie rounds it out as a defense-shred support, stripping up to 75% DEF across ten stacks.
| Cookie | Rarity | Why it ranks here |
|---|---|---|
 Oven Wanderer Cookie | TSSR | Burst combo of 81.8% Charge DMG into an 86% ATK explosion, plus flame DoT and chained charges for group clears. |
 Wind Archer Cookie | TSSR | 2.5-second cooldown for constant DPS; Last Wind hits 304.4% ATK and pierces five enemies with knockback. |
 Vampire Cookie | SSR | 431.5% ATK single-target hit that targets high-ATK enemies, plus up to 45% Accuracy Down for 4 seconds. |
 Twizzly Gummy Cookie | SSR | Twizzly Beam deals 211.6% ATK on a fast 3.5-second cooldown and chains up to four extra targets. |
 Milky Way Cookie | SSR | Wide-area DoT for 2.5 seconds with Knockback, and can fire Sugarcloud Express twice in a row. |
 Strawberry Crepe Cookie | SSR | Crepe Crasher deals 159.2% ATK AoE on a 4-second cooldown and pushes enemies back. |
 Dark Choco Cookie | SSR | Reduces DEF 7.5% per stack up to 10 stacks; Dark Sword Strike adds damage, knockback, and a 5-second debuff on a 6-second cooldown. |
A tier: strong picks with minor conditions
These Cookies perform well in most content but usually need the right team or setup. Espresso Cookie hits 300.3% ATK once its combo lands, though it takes a few skill phases to ramp. Toothpaste Cookie and Cream Soda Cookie both boost ranged compositions with Range Synergy, so they shine in shooter-heavy lineups and dip elsewhere. Scorpion Cookie is a long-fight specialist, stacking Poison up to 20 times, while Milk Cookie’s Crunchy Strong Pediatrician handles sustained healing and an ATK buff.
| Cookie | Rarity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
 Espresso Cookie | SSR | 300.3% ATK burst and enemy pull, but needs multiple skill phases to reach full damage. |
 Cream Puff Cookie | SSR | 3-second whirlwind ticking every 0.33s; low 18.1% ATK per tick relies on enemies staying inside. |
 Madeleine Cookie | SSR | 163.4% ATK on a 3.5s cooldown with long range and knockback; damage falls off in later stages. |
 Toothpaste Cookie | SSR | Burst plus healing worth 447.6% ATK and 70% Range Synergy; best in ranged teams. |
 Schwarzwalder | SSR | 113.6% ATK AoE on a 4.25s cooldown; 1-second stun only fires 15% of the time. |
 Pomegranate Cookie | SSR | +69% Skill AMP for 9 seconds and 100% Projectile Speed Synergy, held back by a 10s cooldown. |
 Scorpion Cookie | SSR | 100% Poison chance stacking up to 20 times; damage is over time rather than burst. |
 Space Doughnut’s Royal Excellence | SSR | Fires up to 3 beams with a 20% chance to transform enemies into doughnuts. |
 Cream Soda Cookie | SSR | Melee plus wave attacks and 50% Range Synergy for 4s; individual damage is low. |
 Milk Cookie’s Crunchy Strong Pediatrician | SSR | Continuous heal for 5.5s plus ATK Increase and 75% Duration Synergy; little direct damage. |
 Popcorn Cookie | SR | Line-clearing laser for 1.8s; relies on enemies staying in the beam. |
 Pancake Cookie | SR | 30% DEF Down for 5s and a 20-hit bombardment; the debuff only procs 15% of the time. |
B tier: dependable through mid-game
B-tier Cookies get you through early and mid-game comfortably before stronger units take their slots. Ion Cookie Robot mixes 202% ATK damage with shields and 35% damage reduction, but its transform takes 30 seconds to trigger. Nameless Cake Hound offers AoE plus 15% team damage reduction on a slow cooldown, and Herb Cookie stays useful even in some SSR teams thanks to its healing and Volley Synergy. Strawberry Shortcake Cookie earns a spot here mainly for the Pierce Synergy that pairs so well with Wind Archer Cookie.
| Cookie | Rarity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
 Ion Cookie Robot | SSR | 202% ATK with shields and 35% damage reduction after a 30-second transform. |
 Strawberry Shortcake Cookie | SSR | +110% Move SPD for 5.5s and Pierce Synergy; limited utility outside pierce teams. |
 Nameless Cake Hound | SSR | AoE with knockback and 15% team damage reduction, on a long 7.25s cooldown. |
 Skating Queen Cookie | SSR | +65% CRIT DMG and Chain Synergy; own damage capped at 28.4% ATK. |
 Melon Soda Cookie | SSR | 25 quick-fire rounds on a 5.25s cooldown; no team utility. |
 Licorice Cookie | SR | Summons 3 servants for 7s; they inherit only 5% of caster HP. |
 Herb Cookie | SR | Heals 40.8% ATK over 6 ticks with Volley Synergy; little direct damage. |
 Rye Cookie | SR | 6 quick-fire rounds on a 4s cooldown; purely offensive. |
 Dr. Wasabi Cookie | SR | Up to 3 beams on a 4s cooldown; small 1.5 radius limits coverage. |
 Peach Cookie | SR | 45% Evasion after attacking on a 3.5s cooldown; buff lasts only 1.75s. |
C tier: niche and low-priority
These Cookies work in narrow situations but rarely justify heavy investment. Several are support units whose long cooldowns cap their uptime, like Orange Cookie’s 60% CRIT Rate buff or Rockstar Cookie’s shields, both stuck on 9.5 to 10 second timers. Tiger Lily Cookie needs a transformation before it does anything meaningful, and units like Lemon Cookie simply lack the damage or utility to keep pace once better options arrive.
| Cookie | Rarity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
 Orange Cookie | SR | 60% CRIT Rate and Multistrike Synergy for 10s, but a 9.5s cooldown and no real DPS. |
 Macaron Cookie | SR | Range Synergy and CRIT Rate buff; tiny 0.75 radius and low damage. |
 Rockstar Cookie | SR | Shields and Pierce Synergy on a 10s cooldown; minimal damage. |
 Tiger Lily Cookie | SR | 113.7% ATK per second in Tiger Rider form, gated by a 10s transform cooldown. |
 Lemon Cookie | SR | Fast 4s cooldown but low damage and no crowd control or buffs. |
 Dr. Bones Cookie | SR | Strong emergency heal for low-HP allies; 20% stun chance and weak damage. |
 Witchberry Cookie | SR | Pierce with 5.5s of continuous damage; needs enemies close and offers no buffs. |
 Lime Cookie | SR | Healing plus a 60% CRIT Rate buff, slowed by an 8s cooldown and low offense. |
Who to pull and reroll for first
Rerolling early pays off because an S-tier Cookie removes the need to swap out your core team later. The best reroll targets are Oven Wanderer Cookie, Wind Archer Cookie, and Vampire Cookie, all of which stay viable deep into the endgame. Note that the TSSR pair only appears in the gacha at gacha level 6, so plan around reaching that unlock.
Two SSRs, Dark Choco Cookie and Strawberry Shortcake Cookie, can be earned for free through quests, so it is worth maxing them since they are often among your first legendaries. Strawberry Shortcake Cookie in particular becomes near-mandatory alongside Wind Archer Cookie because its Pierce Synergy dramatically improves clear speed.
Tip: If you pull only lower-tier SSRs at first, keep using them to progress and swap them out as your S-tier options arrive. B and C Cookies remain perfectly functional filler until then, so there is no need to stall while chasing a perfect roster.
Rankings shift whenever new Cookies and balance changes land, so treat this as the state of play for the August 2026 build and revisit it after each content update.
