Snack Dash Best Creations to Support

Recommended Cat Cakes

The best Creation to support will always vary depending on the options you get, as well as the actual terrain of the arena. However, the Creations listed below can take advantage of certain situations, which will allow you to generally gain more control of the race!

Creation Recommendation
HSR Snack Dash - Lucky SnackLucky Snack For Disabling Mechanisms
If there are many Push Plates or Bumper Mechanisms present on the field, it'll be good to support Lucky Snack. Since it can disable their operations, Lucky Snack can avoid being flung to random spots.
HSR Snack Dash - TroublemakerTroublemaker For Elevated Platforms
Go with Troublemaker if the field has a lot of elevated platforms that require contestants to move around them. Troublemaker's ability will allow it to jump onto them and create a straightforward path to the finish line.
HSR Snack Dash - Diviner MochiDiviner Mochi For Slow and Slippery Tiles
Diviner Mochi will not be affected by Slow Tiles and Slippery Tiles. If many are on the field, you can avoid speed loss or sliding in unwanted directions by supporting Diviner Mochi.
HSR Snack Dash - Trash CakeTrash Cake For Speed Boosts from Trash Bags
Trash Cake is generally a reliable option in many field conditions as it will not be stunned by Trash Bags. Instead, Trash Cake will gain a speed boost and allow it to quickly pass stunned contestants!
HSR Snack Dash - Rice DumplingRice Dumpling For Complex Fields
Fields that have a lot of Special Tiles and Bubbles are best suited for Rice Dumpling. Its ability will make it search for clearer paths and avoid terrain effects.
HSR Snack Dash - Shader CatShader Cat For Narrow Paths
If part of the field contains narrow sections that are 1 tile wide, go with Shader Cat. It can make nearby Creations go backwards and sometimes fling them off the path. This will allow Shader Cat to surge ahead much faster!

How to Play Snack Dash

Snack Dash Gameplay

Select an Arena Difficulty

HSR Snack Dash - Select an Arena Difficulty

Snack Dash races have 4 difficulty levels: Casual, Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. After completing a match in a certain difficulty for the first time, you'll unlock the next difficulty!

The harder the race, the more expensive it is bet on contestants. However, you'll also earn more rewards as well! Take note that Advanced races are multiplayer, so you'll be matched against other Trailblazers that are online!

Support Your Favorite Contestant

HSR Snack Dash - Support Your Favorite Contestant

Several critters will race against each other in an obstacle course and your goal is to support the critter who you think is going to win the race. Spend Bounce-Bounce Snacks to bet on a contestant and win more back when they place in the top 3 ranks!

Each match is divided into 3 segments. With each segment, you need to pick a new contestant to support. Contestants that ranked low in a previous segment will earn more Bounce-Bounce Snacks if they place in the top 3 for the next one!

Choose Contestants Based on Terrain

Every race has a randomized obstacle course with various terrain that can slow down your supported contestant. However, each Creation has their own abilities that can negate or let them take advantage of the terrain instead!

Be sure to look at the course and consider which Creation might have an easier time navigating through its obstacles.

Once you've unlocked the Intermediate arena difficulty, you'll unlock the ability to vote for Stage Effects. These can provide various advantages or disadvantages, so it's best to go with whichever is most compatible with your chosen Creation.

The Stage Effect is randomly decided, but if a certain effect has more players voting for it, there'll be a higher chance of it getting drawn!
