The Spice Mokos
The Spice Mokos is one of the possible fourth fights a player can run into. The fight is won when the Miniboss, King Moko, is defeated.
Strategy
The fight with the Spice Mokos is a fairly standard damage race for the first two waves. Prioritize defeating Makokos before their attack can grow too high, and try to take down Grumps and Grog with heavy-hitting attacks to prevent their effects from having as much impact. However, everything changes once King Moko appears; his terrifying 10 attack and whopping 5 Frenzy nearly guarantee a game over if he gets to attack. The only way to combat King Moko is to use his own ability against him, hitting him repeatedly to give Spice to everyone (conveniently, this also helps alleviate Grumps's attack penalty). However, a Makoko and Pepper Witch always appear alongside him, and the Makoko will immediately use all the Spice it gains (particularly worrisome if King Moko is hit multiple times in one turn). The Spice applied by the Pepper Witch is mostly inconsequential once King Moko starts giving large amounts to everyone, but it still has a reasonably fast Counter and can cause grievous damage if not taken out quickly when Spiced.
The best way to ensure a clean fight with King Moko is to have attacks ready that can quickly neutralize or take out as many of his allies as possible, such as strong Items or attacks with Barrage. Once King Moko is alone, the player is free to whale on him without concern for other enemies interfering. Grumps and Grog are generally not threatening since their Counters are very high, so they likely won't be able to attack more than once in the battle. Try to save as many expendable Clunkers and Shades for when King Moko appears, as his allies' attack will dramatically increase as the fight rages on.
Two particular Clunkers are uniquely powerful in the fight with King Moko. The Moko Totem can easily trigger its Reaction thanks to King Moko granting it plenty of Spice. It only takes 4 hits on King Moko for the Totem to gain enough Spice to activate, and it's a guaranteed kill if all five hits land on him. Plinker has the highest base Scrap of any Clunker at 5, so deploying it on the turn that King Moko attacks allows it to take all five of his hits without any danger to other allied cards.
