In rounds like 63 it still sucks because its popping power is 60, which barely makes it pop anything. I'd better get Blade Maelstrom and use its ability (well, it makes a bit of lag, but still, its an extremely cheap ($4075 only) strategy for clean up and MOABs). On the contrary: A 0/0 Dart Monkey and a 4/2 Tack Shooter can solo Round 31 together. Ring of Fire is more long term defence, while Maelstrom is more leaning towards the short term side, due to being an ability.

Weird. I talk about Ring of Fire ALONE, upgraded 4/0 and you bring up 0/0 dart monkeys with 4/2 ring of fire.

Would you like to know what "relevance" means?

Still, back on topic, try that upgrade against packed bloons, like in round 35, it plain sucks then. If the ability is used near those types of bloons, it can actually destroy them. It can solo a ceramic if you use it at the right time (the Blade Maelstrom)
