Brotato Saver Build Guide & Best Strategies
Saver Build & Strategien
Is Saver good in Brotato?
Saver is a strong economic character that turns hoarded materials into massive damage, but requires discipline to not overspend and survive pricey early shops.
Strengths
- Builtāin Piggy Bank plus +15 Harvesting create a powerful economy engine.
- +1% Damage per 25 materials heavily rewards saving for huge lateāgame damage.
- Pairs extremely well with HP and materialāscaling items like Padding.
Weaknesses
- +50% item and weapon prices make the early game fragile and punish greedy rerolls.
- Power spikes are delayed; you can feel underpowered until youāve banked a lot of materials.
- Requires careful spending discipline and good positioning to survive while saving.
Saver Stats & Passive Ability
Saver is all about economy and delayed power spikes. The combination of +15 Harvesting, starting with a Piggy Bank, and damage scaling from stored materials rewards you for spending as little as possible in the early and mid game. Your +50% item and weapon price penalty makes rerolling and impulse buys extremely punishing, so you generally lock in a core weapon setup quickly and then hoard materials. As your bank grows, your global damage ramps up, letting you rely on a few highāvalue items and HP scaling rather than a wide shop pool. Builds commonly focus on cheap or free sources of extra value (like Coupon or Dangerous Bunny), defensive stats such as Dodge, HP, and Armor to survive while saving, and synergies that scale directly off your growing material or HP pool.

š±Early Game (waves 1ā5)
Play ultraāgreedy: roll only once per round, grab Slingshots when they appear, and otherwise avoid spending to let Piggy Bank and your passives grow your material stash. Take cheap economy pieces like Coupon or Alien Worm from shops or crates when they appear, but recycle anything that isnāt in the core plan.

Saver HighāDifficulty Strategy
Early Game
On high difficulties, focus on surviving the expensive early waves while still preserving your economy. Aim to establish a cheap but reliable weapon setup (like Slingshot or Thief Dagger), avoid unnecessary rerolls, and only buy highāimpact economy or defense items. Prioritize Attack Speed, some HP, and Dodge so you can safely kite while banking materials.
Mid Game
In the mid game, lean fully into Saverās identity: stop or drastically reduce spending so your materials and Piggy Bank can snowball. Look for rare power spikes such as Sifd's Relic, Padding, or key crit tools while continuing to scale core stats like Attack Speed, Crit Chance (if using Thief Daggers), and Armor.
Late Game
By late game your stored materials should give you huge global damage. Transition into a stable endgame weapon setup (e.g., fully upgraded Slingshots or Potato Throwers) and fortify defenses with HP and Armor. Use your damage advantage to delete elites quickly, then focus on dodging and maintaining spacing during boss fights.
š” Saver excels in highādifficulty runs if you can resist the urge to spend early. Treat every shop visit as a test of discipline: buy only items or weapons that dramatically improve economy, scaling, or survival. Once your material stash and Piggy Bank engine are rolling, your damage and HP scaling will carry you through elites and bosses.
