I'd put Gwendolin on top as she is a great in early game coz of high popping power and speed, can pop lead, ability is nice and pair her up with a ninja and you have a nice defense. Late game the super attack speed and popping power, along with +1 layer damage buff is awesome.

Ezili would be second because as much as I love using her, she is not a lot of help early game. Unlike the others, you need to put in a few dart monkeys or a ninja before you can buy her. Other than that, she is great help in popping MOABs, DDTs and even BADs. Her ability to strip off camo, regrow and fortified is handy. She deserves to be at the top, if not for that early game weakness.

Third would be Obyn. You can buy him the very first round, can hold its own, pair up with ninjas, supermonkeys or druids, and your defense is solid. Wall of Trees is awesome.

Churchill. Cannot be bought very early, and levels up slowly, which pushed him down this list. But if you get him, he can pop every type of bloon, and is great help in mid-late game.

Next is Striker Jones. Now that mortars are available, and moab maulers were buffed a couple months ago, using him and spamming bombs and mortars is a good enough strategy. Just waiting for one more tower that he can buff.

I don't use benjamin anymore, because as much as money it can give, it can also take because of the bloon trojan. So a lot of money from levels 40, 50, 60 and 80 is just unavailable. When you have a strong defense, you don't really need that trojan. you need more money.

As much as I like using Quincy, he does not help in late game a lot.
