Considering that it has high potential at the cost of a hefty downtime to reach that once its wall has been breached, it is nearly as costly as a Spectre for the potency of a B.A.D. clearer for Round 100.

As a freeplay, it does dwindle, but that can arguably be the case for any Spike Factory for being weak against the ever-growing demand of Bloons. It's fundamentally weak on the core tower at that point, and I still think that the upgrade does its best to still do its own thing and still be powerful enough to use.

Besides, a 500 damage spike at the normal rate is still nothing to scoff at as a general defensive or even offensive asset.
