What's your favorite loadout for Bloons TD Battles?

Personally I use:


 * Boomerang Thrower - Very common choice for the majority of players out there, both tier 3 upgrades are very useful and they are pretty much my only offensive towers.


 * Ice Tower - This may seem like a rather unusual choice, rarely anyone uses this at all but well, I use about 4 0-1 Ice Towers on most maps, I may upgrade them on the first path but I rarely ever do so, I just use it to help slow down rushes, especially ceramic rushes.


 * Monkey Village - I used to use the Mortar Tower but it's possible to send in large camo rushes and by luck, make the rush go through before the Mortar attacks again but I see many others counter it by having other camo detection towers, anyway, back on topic, Monkey Villages decrease the price of any new towers and their upgrades if I place them within its radius. It also has upgrades to make my towers have a +1 increased max pop count (I admit this doesn't necessarily have much use to me but I have to get it anyway to obtain Radar Scanner), range boost, attack rate boost and well, that's all I generally use. I use this tower on all maps except the Cards map where I'd use the Mortar Tower instead due to the miniature track length.


 * Banana Farm - As well as giving off some good cash much like the income, you can sell it for some emergency cash if you happen to leak bloons and need to buy an upgrade/tower. They have also been buffed recently to give off $30 instead of $20!

Also coincidentally, the hotkeys of these towers spell R, A, C, V respectively which spells out R.A.C.V. aka the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria, a well-known roadside assistance/insurance company from where I live which makes it conveniently easy to remember the hotkeys :)
