InCookie Run: Kingdom, cookies come in different rarities, and some are way stronger than others. One of the most powerful (and rare) types is the Beast Cookies. These werethe first cookies ever made in the game’s story—but they ended up turning evil. Shadow Milk Cookie is one of those five Beast Cookies.

He is all about trickery and lies. Shadow Milk can confuse enemies with his disguise and hit them hard using four unstoppable skills. What makes him even better is that his powers can cut through cookies with damage resistance debuffs, which is pretty wild. This guide gives a quick look at Shadow Milk Cookie’s abilities, plus the best Toppings, Tarts, and Beascuits to help you build him right.

Shadow Milk is a Magic-type Cookie who fights from the middle row. His main skill,Puppet Show,targets the enemy with the lowest HP (except Safeguard ones) and sends creepy puppets to circle around them. These puppets chip away at the target and nearby cookies. When the move ends, he finishes with a Grand Finale that smacks all enemy cookies hard.

If the target gets defeated before the Puppet Show ends, he summons a Soul Phantom (a ghost character) in their place. That phantom absorbs damage and then dishes it back at enemies when the skill wraps up. At the start of the match, Shadow Milk drops anEye of Truth, which is his passive skill. This eye charges up every time your team gets hit with debuffs or he uses his skills. Once it hits four stacks, the Eye clears all debuffsfrom your team and powers up Shadow Milk, letting him deal even more damage.
