Shrimpyro – Fire DPS
In-game bio: “Has a strong sense of justice but is easily misguided. An innocent gopher was once accused as the bad guy, and Shrimpyro charged in without a second thought. Punch first, think later. Plenty of heroic deeds, plenty of enemies to show for it.”

How to use Shrimpyro
Deploy Shrimpyro in the back row, behind a Tank or Guardian, so it can fire the whole lane. As a Fire Tatari it should face Grass Zobos and avoid lanes with Water Zobos — the game shows a green thumb when the match-up is right. Shrimpyro is T1 — the line gets its full kit at Pyroviathan, so treat this form as a stepping stone.
Tier verdict for the Shrimpyro line (A): Fast punches that Burn and deal bonus damage to Burning targets (fixed in the Jul 15 patch); Pyroviathan carries Aura: Fire. The clean Fire DPS pick.
Shrimpyro line Horde Invasion skills
In Zobo Horde Invasion every Tatari learns three extra skills at Horde levels 3, 5 and 7; they are shared by the whole Shrimpyro line (only the base skill differs per form).
| Base | Quick Jabs: Quickly throws 3 punches. |
|---|---|
| Level 3 | Scattered Jabs: Attacks have a chance to fire 3 waves of scattered punches. |
| Level 5 | Blasting Jabs: Attacks have a chance of dealing small AoE damage when connecting with enemies. |
| Level 7 | Piercing Jabs: Fires numerous waves of fan-shaped punches. |
Horde verdict (B): Level 7 fires waves of fan-shaped punches; fine DPS filler for Fire-countered waves.
