Underdog quick answer
Underdog asks for a Pressure 10 or higher win at level 30 or less. Treat it as an efficiency route: stop farming once food, movement, one defense layer, and one damage plan are online.
A late-June post-patch screenshot does confirm Underdog can still scale well after the unlock is already done, reaching Pressure 10 into Extinction 8, but that is after-unlock proof rather than the actual unlock route.
Avoid collection detours and shiny hunting while testing it; extra levels can turn a winning run into a failed unlock.
