The thing about BMC is that it's usually going to be ZOMGs or DDTs that kill you (especially the latter in Contested Territory). Spike Factories upgrades to 2/3 are a great counter for these bloons; in fact, they're the best counter for DDTs. Also, in BMC, you are rewarded for capturing a tile with no lives lost. This means that parking a Spike Factory at the end of the track, even if it's 0/0, can stop those few reds or blues or greens from leaking, and thus you get five extra bloonstones. Make that 10 :)
