Plants vs Brainrots Hit List Event Overview
The Hit List Event is a limited-time feature introduced as part of the massive Cards Update on October 11, 2026. This revolutionary event combines the thrill of hunting specific targets with the strategic depth of the new Card System, creating an engaging gameplay loop that rewards both active and passive playstyles. Unlike previous events where you simply collected brainrots, the Hit List requires you to actively defeat specific targets while the mission is active, adding a layer of strategy and timing to your gameplay.
| Event Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Event Duration | October 11 – October 18, 2026 (Limited Time) |
| Total Targets | 20 Unique Brainrots |
| Final Reward | Tomade Torelli Godly Plant |
| Reset Cost | $50,000,000 for multiple completions |
| Location | Central Island (Event Platform) |
| NPC | Tomade Torelli |
What makes this event particularly special is its integration with the new Card System. As you progress through the Hit List, you’ll earn Card Packs that contain powerful new cards with unique abilities. These cards can be equipped in special slots (unlocked through rebirths) to provide various buffs and effects, creating a synergistic relationship between event completion and character progression.
How to Start the Plants vs Brainrots Hit List Event?
Getting started with the Hit List Event is straightforward, but there are some crucial details you need to know to avoid common mistakes. Follow these steps precisely to ensure you’re set up for success from the beginning.
Step 1: Access the Central Island
First, you need to reach the event area. Here’s how:
- Teleport to Central Island: Use the glass door teleporter (costs $1,000,000)
- Navigate North: Once on the Central Island, head north to find the Defeat Brainrots event platform
- Locate Tomade Torelli: Look for the frustrated-looking tomato NPC swaying near the event table
Pro Tip: The $1,000,000 teleport fee might seem steep, but it’s a one-time cost and absolutely worth it for access to this event and other Central Island features.
Step 2: Initialize the Hit List
Once you’ve found Tomade Torelli, interact with him to receive your first target:
- Talk to Tomade Torelli: He’ll give you your first target from the 20-brainrot hit list
- Check the Event Table: The current target’s name appears adjacent to the event table
- Prepare Your Base: Set up your attacking plants strategically before hunting begins
Important Note: Unlike other events where you can use pre-captured brainrots, Hit List targets must be defeated DURING the active mission. Brainrots obtained through Eggs or previous captures don’t count toward your progress.
Step 3: Understand the Target System
The Hit List works differently from other events you might be familiar with:
- Sequential Progression: You must complete targets in order (1-20)
- Active Mission Requirement: Targets must be defeated while the mission is active
- Automatic Target Updates: After defeating a target, a “Claim” button appears over Tomade Torelli
- Reward Collection: Click the Claim button to receive your reward and unlock the next target
Common Mistake to Avoid: Don’t waste time capturing brainrots before starting the mission. Only defeats that occur during the active Hit List mission count toward your progress.

2026 Advanced Strategies for Completing the Hit List
Now that you know what you’re hunting, let’s dive into the most effective strategies for completing the Hit List quickly and efficiently. These advanced techniques will save you countless hours and maximize your success rate.
Optimizing Brainrot Spawn Rates
One of the biggest challenges players face is the random spawn times of target brainrots. Here’s how to dramatically increase your spawn rates:
Riot Potion Strategy
- What it does: Doubles or triples brainrot spawn rates for 10 minutes
- Best time to use: Right after starting a new target mission
- Where to get: Leftover from Prism Event or purchase from other players
- Pro Tip: If you don’t have Riot Potions, Speed Potions from the shop are a great alternative, increasing spawn and movement speeds by 50%
Spawn Time Optimization
Brainrots can spawn anywhere from 5 minutes to several hours, but you can influence this:
| Time Range | Probability | Action Required |
|---|---|---|
| 5-15 minutes | 30% | Stay active, monitor closely |
| 15-60 minutes | 50% | Semi-AFK, check periodically |
| 1-3 hours | 15% | AFK with auto-claim setup |
| 3+ hours | 5% | Consider server hopping |
Advanced Technique: Some players report that switching servers after 30 minutes of no spawns can reset the spawn timer, though this isn’t officially confirmed.
AFK Farming Setup
For maximum efficiency, especially overnight or during school/work, set up this AFK farming system:
Required Setup
- Strong Plant Formation: Arrange your best attacking plants to cover all lanes
- Auto-Sell Configuration: Enable auto-sell for everything except Secrets and Limited items
- Auto-Clicker/Macro: Set up to spam the “E” key for automatic claiming
- Stable Internet Connection: Ensure you won’t disconnect during extended AFK sessions
Optimal Plant Placement
Front Line: [High DPS Plants] - [High DPS Plants] - [High DPS Plants]
Middle Line: [Area Effect Plants] - [Area Effect Plants] - [Area Effect Plants]
Back Line: [Support Plants] - [Support Plants] - [Support Plants]
Pro Tip: Plants with area-of-effect attacks work best for AFK farming, as they can handle multiple brainrots simultaneously without requiring precise targeting.
Inventory Management for Maximum Efficiency
Nothing stops progress faster than a full inventory. Here’s how to optimize your inventory management:
Auto-Sell Best Practices
- Enable Auto-Sell: Turn it on immediately when starting the event
- Exclusions: Only exclude Secrets and Limited items from auto-sell
- Benefit: Even auto-sold items count toward Hit List progress, so you don’t lose anything
Manual Inventory Cleanup
If you prefer not to use auto-sell, follow this routine:
- Every 30 Minutes: Check inventory and sell common items
- Keep Only: Essential plants, rare items, and mission-critical brainrots
- Prioritize: Always maintain space for new captures and rewards
Card System Integration
The Hit List Event is closely tied to the new Card System. Understanding this integration is crucial for maximizing your efficiency:
Card Slots Explained
- Starting Slots: 1 card slot (available to all players)
- Maximum Slots: 5 slots (unlocked through rebirths)
- Slot Progression: 1 additional slot per rebirth, up to Rebirth 5
Best Cards for Hit List Farming
Based on community testing and my personal experience, these cards provide the biggest benefits for Hit List completion:
| Card Type | Effect | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Spawn Rate Boost | Increases brainrot spawn frequency | All targets, especially rare ones |
| Damage Amplifier | Increases plant damage output | Tough targets and AFK farming |
| Luck Enhancement | Increases drop rates and rare spawns | Late-game targets and rare items |
| Auto-Claim Assistant | Automates reward claiming | AFK farming sessions |
Pro Tip: Focus on acquiring and upgrading Spawn Rate Boost cards first, as they’ll provide the most consistent benefit throughout your Hit List journey.
Troubleshooting Common Hit List Issues
Even with the best strategies, you might encounter some challenges. Here are solutions to the most common problems players face:
Issue: Target Not Spawning
Problem: You’ve been waiting hours for your target brainrot to appear.
Solutions:
- Verify Active Mission: Ensure you’ve properly initiated the Hit List mission with Tomade Torelli
- Check Server Population: Try switching to a more populated server
- Use Spawn Boosters: Activate Riot Potions or Speed Potions if available
- Server Hop: After 30 minutes of no spawns, try changing servers
Issue: Claim Button Not Appearing
Problem: You defeated the target but can’t claim your reward.
Solutions:
- Wait 30 Seconds: Sometimes there’s a delay before the Claim button appears
- Check Inventory Space: Ensure you have room for the reward items
- Re-interact with Tomade Torelli: Talk to him again to trigger the claim
- Rejoin the Server: If all else fails, rejoining can fix UI glitches
Issue: Progress Not Counting
Problem: You’re defeating brainrots but your Hit List progress isn’t updating.
Solutions:
- Confirm Active Target: Double-check you’re hunting the correct brainrot
- Check Mission Status: Ensure the Hit List mission is still active
- Avoid Pre-captured Brainrots: Remember, only defeats during active missions count
- Report Bugs: If the issue persists, it might be a bug requiring developer attention
Issue: Inventory Management Problems
Problem: Your inventory keeps filling up and stopping progress.
Solutions:
- Enable Auto-Sell: This is the most effective solution
- Regular Manual Cleanup: If not using auto-sell, clean inventory every 30 minutes
- Prioritize Items: Keep only essential plants and rare items
- Use Storage: Utilize any available storage systems for less important items

Reset Mechanics Explained

Hit List Event FAQ

Completion time varies significantly based on your setup and luck. On average, players complete the Hit List in 2-4 days with active play, or 5-7 days with casual/AFK play. With optimal strategies and spawn boosters, some players complete it in under 24 hours.
Can I complete the Hit List without spending Robux?

What’s the best plant setup for Hit List farming?
The optimal setup varies based on your progress and available plants, but generally includes:
- Front Line: High DPS plants like Dragon Fruit or Watermelon
- Middle Line: Area effect plants for crowd control
- Back Line: Support plants that boost damage or provide utility
Are the Hit List targets different each time?
No, the Hit List targets are always the same 20 brainrots in the same order. This consistency allows players to plan their strategies and know exactly what to expect.
Can I trade Tomade Torelli plants with other players?
Tomade Torelli plants are typically considered limited or rare items, so trading policies may vary. Check the current game rules and trading guidelines, as these can change with updates.
