Grenadiers, if pushed into range of Critter Launchers, are particularly vulerable due to the fact that they will likely damage/kill themselves in order to take out attacking Critters.

However, Mechs despite their high rate of fire cannot destroy the Critters in a short amount of time, due to the inaccuracy of their fire. Likewise, Heavies are also somewhat good against Critters. Scorchers perform nicely against Critter Launchers, as it has a high attack rate, will frequently switch targets and usually boasts enough damage to defeat Critters in one hit.Much like how Critters can distract Boom Cannons from destroying Tanks, troops with a low rate of fire are extremely vulnerable, since they give ample time for Critters to stack up. Troops do not prioritize attacking spawned Critters even if they come under fire. Critter Launchers are dangerous to any troop composition as they rarely tend to deal splash damage.The Critter Launcher is a medium-ranged defense which deals low damage and launches Critters at enemies to distract them.The Critter Launcher is the eighth defense to be unlocked in the game.These critters are not only a great distraction but also deal a lot of damage!"
