Obyn Greenfoot (BTD6)

"Commanding powers of nature, Obyn can shoot through solid obstacles with his spirit wolf attack."

- Bloons TD6

Obyn Greenfoot is a Hero in the game Bloons TD 6. He specializes in nature-based attacks and weapons.

In Bloons TD 6 he costs $550 on Easy, $650 on Medium, $700 on Hard, and $780 on Impoppable. If Hero Favors is enabled, he will cost $495 on Easy, $585 on Medium, $630 on Hard, $730 on Impoppable. Obyn is unlocked from the start in BTD6.

He was part of the initial release of the game (alongside Quincy, Gwendolin and Striker Jones).

His main attack launches "spirit wolves" at Bloons. This attack homes in on Bloons, can travel through objects, and pierces up to 4 bloons before disappearing, initially dealing 2 damage every time it hits a bloon. He is capable of popping Lead Bloons, but he cannot pop Camo Bloons or pop Purple Bloons outside of his abilities. Both of his abilities, Brambles and Wall of Trees, place road items based on Obyn's targeting option; if no bloons are nearby, they will be placed randomly. In addition, starting at level 4, Obyn will regularly place totems that slow down bloons randomly around nearby track within range.

Obyn Greenfoot additionally comes with sets of local-ranged buffs towards mostly Druids. Starting at level 2, he grants all nearby Druids with +1 pierce. Starting at level 11, he grants all nearby Magic Monkeys +2 pierce and +5 range, on top of any other buffs, in turn buffing Druids to +3 pierce, instead of +2. Starting at level 18, his final buff allows all Druids of Wrath to immediately start with full wrath for maximum attack speed.

Upgrades
He levels at 1x leveling speed, like all base heroes (Quincy, Gwendolin, Striker Jones, Obyn Greenfoot) and Etienne.

Strategy
Obyn Greenfoot is a somewhat easy hero to use, as his early-game damage helps excel the first few rounds with little trouble and his later levels make Avatar of Wrath + Poplusts strategies excel the later stages of the game. However, he has a very limited synergy with other towers, possesses generally poor DPS in the later rounds. On the bright side, an Avatar of Wrath + Poplusts + Obyn + strategy is relatively easy to do on easier maps, although Sauda excels better on easier maps due to her better late-game, flexibility, and synergy potential.

In terms of best aspects to offer with Obyn, certain levels of Obyn can prove to be significant. Obyn at mid-game onward tend to fall behind on his own, but once he has reached at least Level 11 his supportive potential is enhanced to affect all Magic Monkeys in his range. In later levels, his Level 18+ benefit to all Druids of Wrath and above greatly enhances Druids.

Tips

 * Obyn costs barely enough to be purchasable on the first round if the game mode is set on Easy and Medium, even without "More Cash" MK to provide bonus starting cash. However, on Hard and Impoppable, the aforementioned MK is required.

Obyn Greenfoot Plush
Obyn Greenfoot Plush is a plush. Ninja Kiwi made an announcement about this plush on Twitter. It is hosted by Makeship, and currently runs from 18th (?) December 2021 till 15th January 2022 on 1:00pm NZDT. He costs $25.99 USD. After the campaign ended, 1736 Obyn Greenfoot Plushes were sold. His campgain can be found here.

Trivia

 * He is one of the few towers that are capable of instantly popping a Test Bloon (with Wall of Trees).
 * The others are Druid of the Jungle, Bomb Blitz, Bloon Master Alchemist, Bloon Trap And XXXL Trap.
 * His spirit wolf attack is considered a plasma projectile. That's why it can't pop Purple Bloons, as those are immune to fire, plasma, and energy attacks. That's also why it can pop Lead Bloons.
 * Obyn is one of three Heroes who uses magic attacks, Ezili and Adora being the other two.
 * Obyn and Captain Churchill pronounce the "Z" in "ZOMG" as "zed", while Quincy, Gwendolin, Striker Jones, Ezili, and Pat Fusty pronounce it "zee".
 * Obyn is the fourth hero to gain a second skin, the others being Quincy, Gwendolin, and Striker Jones.
 * As of Version 28.2, Obyn is the only hero to have 2 pets (for the default skin) being the spirit wolf and rabbit.

Balance changes

 * Strangely, when BTD6 was first launched, Obyn was the only Hero who did not say anything when M.O.A.B. Class Bloons appeared or were popped, or when Bloons escaped.
 * In Version 2.0, he received voice lines when MOAB-class Bloons appeared and when Bloons escaped.
 * In Version 10.0, he received voice lines for when MOAB-class Bloons were destroyed.
 * Before the 2.0 update, Brambles only popped just 20/30/100 bloons and dissolved much quicker. The community usually considered the old ability one of the most underpowered abilities.
 * In older versions of the game, Brambles at Level 16+ actually do pop bloons of any type although not stated explicitly, but Obyn Level 16's description has since been clarified in later versions, and is confirmed since Version 18.0.
 * There was a bug in Version 18.0 where Obyn Greenfoot with the Ocean Guardian skin doesn't say Brambles quotes. In Version 18.1, this was partially fixed, because he will only say the Brambles quote upon first activation, but ever other activation he will just stay mute.

Blog posts

 * Mountain Obyn's spirit animal magical attack is a dragon, just like how Ocean Obyn shoots spirit sharks and default Obyn shoots spirit wolves.
 * Obyn likes mint ice cream.

Cultural references

 * Despite being named Obyn Greenfoot, he actually has purple feet. It's likely that his name instead refers to his affinity for nature, somewhat similar to the phrase "green thumb".
 * Ninja Kiwi actually confirmed this theory in their 14th January 2021 blog.
