This Crossbow Master Change Is Strange… BTD6 / Bloons TD 6 – one of the more divisive tier 5s in the game got another balance change, but not necessarily a huge buff or nerf… does it end up changing anything?

I think the identity claim is in comparison to its previous upgrade, which i think is fair.
Hey ISAB, I just thought of a challenge, (or at least a basis for a challenge) Can you beat chimps mode using only Bow/cross bow based monkeys? (So Quincy, Crossbow master, and Sky wardens)?!
I can feel sticker potential with this thumbnail
Another Permaspike showcase
I'm pretty sure that this way, the new crossbow master gets better DPS from % attack speed boosts as (lets use an arbitrary %) 15% from 0.475s is simply bigger % than from 0.2375s. But I'm too lazy to check how big of a difference in DPS it is.
You can just leave spikes at smart targetting
Drop the price of crowbow master by 1000 every patch until people complain.
It adds aura and hype moments though 👀
Isab not using smart spikes after he bought the village gave me an abondoment issue
I feel like ….. level 17 quincy should have a passive ability called archery range efficiency that makes all bow an arrow monkies (quincy , cross bow and sky warden) shoots ..idk… 1,5 x?2x? it buffs both quincy and crossbow … i dont THINK it wouldbe overly outrageously powerful …but makes it semi viable late game?
it technically has double pierce and counts damage buffs/debuffs twice.
18:50 swear jumpscare
i miss the really hard expert list maps
10:54 i saw pink Bloons in all waves
To me, Ninja Kiwi lost any semblance of intelligent balance changes after Corvus' massive downgrade.
It'll take a while before I think anything they do is a good idea again.
I feel like this is maybe a nerf because imagine you deal 1 dmg with 2 atack speed and 2 dmg with 1 atack speed and the enemies have 3 hp… The atack speed is just better
I still think that the crossbow master should of gotten ricocheting projectiles like what quincy has. It would help it more maps that don't have straight lines like most expert maps.
4:03 what the dog doin
I really got addicted to bloons again it's awesome. But I like watching more than playing bloons for some reason. The sound of balloons popping is just music to my ears and I like putting a stream in the background while I'm playing something, usually something mindless that I don't have to focus to much on the actual game (like the dark west since I already played the demo a lot I can just run through it for the fun of it).
If i had a dollar every time they make a tower attack half speed but have double pierce or some dumb shi
I believe they should put strikers 25% pierce bonus on quincy
Because striker is already extremely strong and quincy is only really good late game with a perma brew
Doesn't smart targetting automatically put spikes at the end of whichever track that has bloons? So you don't have to micro it
Everyone talking about interesting stuff and talking about how good this map is BUT,
I like bloon
I thought the change would make it shoot more with the new Tier 5 cause of attack rate cooldowns
as someone who is far less experienced than you, I think you underestimate the early game carries.
perma washed crossbow master balanced around having 2 of them
I also had this map for my final map in my Odyssey adventure and of course on round 99 I lose how disappointing very hard to set up…
To get black borders on Maps, do you have to beat it without any continues and no hero or is it just no continues?
2:35 retrying last round.
9:19 does double shot means you double dip in debuff? Like super brittle applys to both shots so it's technically a small buff
NK pressed the button that does nothing
"This does nothing" it makes it MUCH better with Alch buff (slower attack speed also helps) and with all damage debuffs. And allows it to just one shot a ceramic instead of having it turn into a blue and then have to shoot it again (this is a more visual than practical thing, but till good).
I think having more projectiles but less attack speed is worse late game but good early game to maximize the pierce
fyi, you can target spike factory in the middle and defend both lanes
