The guide

Here are two ideas for you: Dr/ASS Dr. Deranged Deck Build: The main carry is Dr. Deranged, activating the Mage synergy for extra damage. Bosses in Wave1–4 deal magic damage, so use Pirate for Wave1–4. Wave5–7 deal physical damage, so swap to Yogg (I also tried pets that boost HP later, which you guys can try out too). Star Upgrade Priority: VERY IMPORTANT: In Wave 1, you MUST upgrade Dr. Deranged, Sandqueen, and Don all to 5 stars, and have all 7 lineup spots filled. This might take a few retries . As long as Dr. Deranged stacks up buffs in Wave 1, you can slowly max out the rest later. Positioning: Wave 1: I tried two setups. At first, I tried the bottom one, but Hel kept stealing kills, so I blocked Hel's position (the top layout). That allowed the buffs to stack successfully. However, if your hero levels aren't that high, I think you can still try the bottom setup to help clear mobs faster, so I included it as well. Wave 5: Swap Pirate for Yogg and adjust positioning. Wave 5 is super critical—once you pass this, you're set. Dr. Deranged will die, but he'll deal massive damage first, and Phoenix will finish off the remaining HP Wave 6–7: as shown in the screenshot/image Assassin Here's another Assassin clear strategy: core DPS is Silver Fang. Pirate/Yogg swap strategy remains the same at wave 5 wave 1: get Silver Fang and Destroyer Wee to max stars wave 5: switch to Yogg. Failing here usually means Silver Fang lacks damage wave 7: position units around Yogg to tank the hits deck positioning guide here: ⁠strategies-share⁠Wilderness Chapter 4 (HARD)——Dr... That's all the tips! feel free to give it a few tries

I noticed that using Michael makes the Assassins run all over the place, so I tried a build without Michael@S1xMadd
