Character Traits

Golem starts with +20% max HP, gets +33% from Max HP and Armor modifications, and +40% attack speed and +20% speed when below 50% HP. The key downside: Cannot heal in any way (including life steal, regeneration, and consumables).

Must Have Stats

Focus primarily on Armor as it scales with Spiky Shield damage. Max HP provides survivability and scales with character trait. Attack Speed and Speed become crucial when below 50% HP for damage boost.

Early Game

Priority is getting multiple Spiky Shields early. Look for any items that provide Armor or Max HP. Exoskeleton is excellent as it provides both Armor and Speed.

Mid Game

Power Generator helps convert excess Speed into damage. Spicy Sauce and Alien Eye provide percentage-based damage that scales with max HP. Focus on upgrading shields to higher tiers.

Items:

Power Generator - Epic Brotato itemPower Generator - Epic item in Brotato.Stats: +1 % Damage for every permanent 1 % Speed you have -5 % DamageAvailable by default.
Spicy Sauce - Rare Brotato itemSpicy Sauce - Rare item in Brotato.Stats: +3 Max HPConsumables have a 33% chance to explode for 10 (+100%) damage when picked upUnlock requirement: Win a run with Glutton

Late Game

Continue stacking Armor and Max HP. Try to get all shields to red tier (200% armor scaling). The build becomes nearly immortal with high armor and dodge chance.

Items:

Tardigrade - Epic Brotato itemTardigrade - Epic item in Brotato.Stats: Nullifies the damage of one hit taken every waveAvailable by default.

Optional Tips

Try to stay below 50% HP to maximize attack speed and movement speed bonuses. Don't worry about healing items as they won't work. Focus on items that provide percentage-based damage, as they scale well with your high HP pool.
