Strategy[]
Rodeo Cat's Talents and Thaumaturge Cat are still viable options to use in this stage in the same way as its predecessor; you can also use Healer Cat to freeze Primeval Cyclone, although a proper setup is needed. Professor Cat Jobs is also useful here as in the original debut level, but is highly RNG-dependent and requires luring.
It is possible to stall the Primeval Cyclone using the the previous stage's drop Modern Cat, although note that you still need supporting Crowd-Controllers and Research Combos.
Strategy 1 (ft. Talented Rodeo)[]
Level 50+6
Level 50
Level 30
Level 50
Lineup: Biohazard, Bony Bone, Little Warriors, Cameraman Cat 50+6, Can Can Cat 50, Rodeo Cat (Target Relic), Thaumaturge Cat, Modern Cat 30, Manic Eraser Cat 50
Items: Rich Cat, Sniper the Cat
Notes: Normal Cannon was used, although Slow Beam/Thunderbolt could be helpful if you want to delay Primeval Cyclone in a pinch. Breakerblast is for regaining ground.
To start-off, try to take out Sir Rel with Can Can. You could stack the CC units and meatshields at any moment to prevent Primeval Cyclone from pushing too much when it comes out, but beware of your cash. If it does get slowed, spam Cameraman at all costs and only add your CC units sparingly. Primeval Cyclone will have a hard time reaching your stack, all while taking heavy fire. Manic Eraser could be helpful for briefly stopping Li'l Bun Bun for your Cameraman stack to get a quick kill, and so as Gory Black, allowing your support units to continue paralyzing Primeval Cyclone. Due to the support enemies' respawn delays being slightly above a minute, the Cameramen stack are given plenty of opportunities to inflict heavy damage, hopefully defeating it before more appear. With it gone, your units should have no trouble in demolishing the base.
As Cyberpunk cannot be used to provide consistency initially, this strategy will fall on its face if the Rodeos don't hold up and may take a couple of tries.
Strategy 2 (ft. Prof. Cat Jobs)
Lineup: Power of Darkness, Dragon Driller, Camera Man Cat 40 (Survive Talents optional), Prof. Cat Jobs (True Form not required), Courier Cat 40, Manic Eraser Cat 35, Modern Cat 30, Eraser Cat 20+28.
Items: Rich Cat (Required)
You may substitute any equivalent Weaken Up Combos. Wait for the first few Squire Rels to reach the base. Then spawn Camera Mans and some meatshields to deal with the incoming Sir Rels (spawn in Courier if the Sir Rels start to damage the base too much). When the boss spawns, stop spawning meatshields but continue to spawn Camera Man and spawn your Prof. Cat Jobs. When Primeval Cyclone starts to near your base, resume spawning meatshields as you don't want him to land a lucky hit on Prof. Cat Jobs. For the rest of the fight continue spamming Courier, Camera Man, and your meatshields, assuming you lured correctly and have enough stacks of Camera Man/Courier, the peons should not be a problem. If you're worried about the first Li'l Bun Bun, bring Thunderbolt to freeze him when he first starts hitting the frontline. With correct meatshielding and luring this strategy is very consistent and should reliably beat the stage without needing Talented Rodeo Cat.
