The player can get all of the Ancients, although leveling any of them meant for active builds are not so needed.

Idle builds allow players not to click in order to gain the idle status(Clickstorm can cause idle status to go away as well), activating the effect of Libertas, Nogardnit, and Siyalatas. On the other hand, there are other game tools, like Timelapses, that you can use when going Hybrid, making the earlier levels go fast instead of watching hours and hours waiting for stop insta-killing. It is effective, but not as efficient as active because you do not save extra HS by ignoring idle ancients. Hybrid – This build is a combination of an Active and Idle build, allowing levels in both clicking and idle Ancients.Note that skills are really not integrated into this build, and the ones that are, aren't significant. It can push to 182k, and after this caps out, meaning active or hybrid is the only way to go. This build is less recommended to go for as of the 1.0e10 update. They can use their inactivity to activate idle bonuses. Idle – This build is recommended for players without Auto Clickers who don't have time to click frequently.

Active utilizes more ancients than idle and has a faster kill-speed (hence zone per hour rate) meaning it is the best build to use once you have met the criteria for it. 1 can be used, but it requires a lot of player interaction for leveling heroes. Active – This build is recommended for players who are able to click frequently or are in possession of 2 or more Auto Clickers.Builds are the playing styles of Clicker Heroes.
