Strategies
Like Captain Cassie, Commander Cassie is a water tower. She mainly attacks with darts, but can also add more weapons and attacks to her arsenal via upgrades. She's also the most powerful water tower in the game. Consider her when the tracks got space for water.

When you get her to level 3, it is highly recommended to have her in the battlefield especially when using Dragon Fangs. However, in some of later patch notes Triple Barrels and Bloontonium Tips paths have become mutually exclusive, meaning Dragon Fangs may be no longer her kind of weapon.

With huge speed increase effects, you can make crazy fast heavy hitting MOAB maulers and Missile trinket crush MOAB class bloons left and right faster than all dart weaponry on Cassie combined. Reinforced Hull for negative effect protection and Jetpack, first is rightfully hers, for land placement with Snake Darts for speed and Missile trinket inheriting speed boosts and Banana Replicator to double her earnings.

• Ice Ring, Ricardoio's Gauntlets, Cosmic Gauntlets and Doom Gauntlets will provide her 15% speed increase each.

• Medallion of Brogends and Dagger of Chilled Glass will add 10% of speed each.

Trivia

 * The description for the Scramble upgrade formerly was "Place more of Cassie's flying allies" but has since changed after it was modified to allow placement of any of Commander Cassie's allies.
 * Her quote "Bravo, Lima, Oscar, Oscar, November, Sierra" uses the NATO phonetic alphabet to spell out "Bloons".
 * She is comparable to Admiral Brickell, due to both being water heroes with military related powers.
 * The +1 damage from the Bloontonium Tips upgrade was added as one of buffs after Bloontonium Tips + Triple Barrels nerf by introducing "Locked By" restrictions.
