Lotus Island/Strategies

This page contains strategies for the Beginner Map Lotus Island.

General Tips

 * Lotus Island is one of the more difficult Easy maps. Water towers are especially useful here.

Specific Strategies

 * For the middle rounds, a 2-0-4 Glue Gunner and a Bloontonium Reactor near or slightly below the entrance are a very effective combo for all non-M.O.A.B class bloons.
 * Admiral Brickell plus Sub Commander and two 0-3-2 Monkey Subs in the lagoon are a strong force to reckon with, especially if paired with MOAB popping power at the front of the map and Perma-Spike at the end.
 * Etienne has no line-of-sight issues, so is one of the best heroes to place near the beginning of the track, which is usually blocked by numerous bushes.
 * A 0-2-4 Dartling Gunner on the center platform with an alchemist buffing it (and set to 'target independent') can rack up more DPS than other attack towers like Captain Churchill.
 * A Juggernaut on the island below the first bend from the entrance can maximize damage at the front, because the ball will bounce off of the first bush and hit bloons as they spawn.
 * Because of the fact that there is so much water on this map, one might consider bottom path buccaneers instead of farms.
