Fun Facts about BTD5 you probably never noticed

 * You can drag the Mortar Tower's target around and treat it like a Dartling Gun
 * Get a 2-0 Dart Monkey and a SMFC Dart Monkey, use its special ability and then quickly upgrade the 2-0 monkey to Juggernaut (or spike-o-pult), you now have a hyperspeed Juggernaut :P PROBLEM NINJAKIWI? one-time use only
 * There is an ace of spades card wrapped around the helmet of the monkey in the medium difficulty icon
 * The MOAB Assassin's special ability can pop black bloons and camos
 * Tack Sprayers are much more effective against MOAB-class bloons than the Ring Of Fire

BTD5 Glitches and Weird Facts
Note that some of these might be a deeper explanation of the facts above

Tack Sprayers deal more than eight times more damage than the Ring Of Fire against MOAB-class bloons???
After a lot of testing I found something very strange, I retested it several times on different places and conditions and it was still the same. '''I found out that a Tack Sprayer was far more effective against MOAB-class bloons than a Ring Of Fire! '''I also found out that a blade shooter (2-3) was inbetween the two as well as a 2-2 tack shooter which had dealt fairly close to the amount of damage as the blade shooter.

So you basically pay a fair bit of money to upgrade to the 4-2 tack shooter and it dramatically decreases its effectiveness against MOAB-class bloons. It reminds me of the Bomb Tower's Frag Bombs upgrading to Cluster Bombs which eliminates its ability to pop leads although Bloon Impact brings it back but stilI, the Tack Shooter's case is far worse. I EVEN THOUGHT THAT NINJAKIWI BUFFED THE RING OF FIRE!! *Mind Blown* WTF?!?!!!!!?!?!??!?!!!1one!!1

I found out that the tack Sprayer shoots sixteen projectiles and despite the Ring Of Fire shooting almost twice as fast, it only shoots one 'projectile'. I tested this by putting 3 of each of the following towers under the first curve in Monkey Lane: 4-2 Ring Of Fires, 3-2 Tack Sprayers, 2-3 Blade Shooters and 2-2 Tack Shooters against a MOAB .The Tack Sprayers made the MOAB go through two health stages amazingly, the Blade Shooter made it go through one health stage as well as the 2-2 tack shooter although the Blade Shooters destroyed it a bit faster because its upgrade makes the Tack Shooter's fire rate increase. The Ring Of Fires didn't even make it through the first health stage unless you place five of them under the first curve and even then, it barely does so. The Ring Of Fire shoots one projectile yet the Tack Sprayer shoots sixteen, however this is slightly compensated (an unfitting word for this situation) by the fact it shoots almost twice as fast as the tack sprayer.

I can therefore conclude that Tack Sprayers deal more than eight times more damage than the Ring Of Fire against MOAB-class bloons

Hyperspeed Juggernaut is possible :D
By geting a 2-0 Dart Monkey and a SMFC Dart Monkey, use its special ability and then quickly upgrade the 2-0 monkey to Juggernaut, this will give you a Juggernaut that shoots at the same speed as a super monkey (unupgraded). This also works if you upgrade it to a spike-o-pult. After the special ability of the SMFC dart monkey has stopped the Juggernaut will attack normally and if you try it again, the Juggernaut will not shoot super fast anymore, you have to buy another 2-0 dart monkey and repeat the steps all over again.

Dart Monkey
I used to use the triple darts upgrade very often in the earlier levels until I got the Boomerang Dojo which

increases the price of Dart Monkeys and their upgrades. I used to like SMFC a lot as triple dart monkeys would turn into super monkeys throwing 3 darts rapidly, it was like several 'Dart Gods'! Sadly, they nerfed it so they would only act like regular unupgraded super monkeys regardless of their upgrades. Juggernauts still have their power but there are plenty of other towers that I prefer over them but still, two Juggernauts can take down the ceramic layer with ease.

Favourite Upgrade: Juggernaut



Tack Shooter
Next, I want to look over the tack shooters, I liked the blade shooters and I heard people say that the blades could pop 2 layers at a time but I found this out to be false however. It is still a good upgrade along with Even Faster Shooting though as it can almost fully guaranteed using all of its blades facing the track to pop bloons every time. I find the tack sprayer very useful against MOABs (and some lower ranked bloons) and the Ring Of Fire against ceramics but the Tack Sprayer is much cheaper and I found out is that it deals eight times more damage against MOAB-class bloons if all of its tacks are used (more details about this here)

Favourite Upgrade: Tack Sprayer

Sniper Monkey
The sniper monkeys has upgrades for every stage of the game making it a very reliable tower. The unupgraded sniper or a 1-0 is great for picking off those few escaping bloons in the early rounds. During the middle game, 2-3 snipers are effective against all bloon types making them very useful. Even in the freeplay levels, cripple moabs are great in giving the TOTMG more time to attack and the 2-4 snipers are used to replace the banana farms (as the rounds in freeplay are very long). This makes the sniper monkey an awesome tower.

Favourite Upgrade: Semi-Automatic Rifle

Boomerang Thrower
The Boomerang Thrower is one of my favourite towers, especially combined with the Boomerang Dojo (almost like Double Ranga). the Bionic Boomer is one of the best towers for the early rounds but can still dominate in the later rounds in large amounts although I usually replace them with Glaive Lords.

"Oh wat da f*k. Bother telling me, why so many glaive lords? the're just glaive ricochets with 2 glaives around them." -A comment on one of my youtube videos  The two glaives that 'hover' around the glaive lord aren't like any ordinary glaive, placing 3 glaive lords under the first bend of monkey lane will make any amount of MOABs ripped to shreds, even if you hold 'I' in sandbox mode. This is why it was an ideal solution for the 12th of July daily challenge when the MOABs came in. I've also always wondered what it would look like to have a Double-Ranga, Turbo-Charged Boomerang Thrower with a third tier Boomerang Dojo under the influence of an MIB Monkey Village with its special ability been used. Speaking of which, I have a third tier Boomerang Dojo, TOTALLY WORTH IT, it only increases the cost of the dart monkey which is the cheapest tower overall anyway. I also found the Glaive Ricochet quite useful as well, they can pop an infinite amount of bloons which is useful against mass amounts of bloons

Favourite Upgrades: Bionic Boomer and Glaive Lord

These two upgrades were equally epic so I had to pick both of them :P

Ninja Monkey
Many people like this new tower a lot, the 4-2 Ninja Monkey is very powerful and are great against ceramics. The truth is that I never use the 2nd path (unless it's like a daily challenge or something) as it just doesn't seem to be worth it, for example the Bloon Impact upgrade of the Bomb Tower would make a wonderful substition for several Flash Bomb Ninjas as it covers a far wider area as well as firing the bombs faster. I still think the Bloonjitsu upgrade would do well in the earlier rounds, especially against ceramics.

Favourite Upgrade: Bloonjitsu MORE COMING SOON!!
