Co-Op Mode (BTD6)/Strategies

Here are a list of strategies for the Co-Op Mode in BTD6.

Tips

 * Since cash is evenly distributed between players, you'll earn cash slowly, so Benjamin is a recommended hero and it is recommended to use Banana Farms.
 * It is actually easier to play with 1 teammate than with 2 or 3 teammates, as you gain more cash with less teammates and can thus build towers more easily.
 * Try to take advantage of what section you can place towers in. If you are restricted to the end of the map, use the land to place Spike Factories or Farms. If you are near the start, focus on the bulk of the defense and build towers to pop bloons.
 * Do not primarily focus on farming on early game. This can easily lead to losing on early rounds due to lack of bloon popping power. A notorious tactic often seen in Quick Matches are players getting Benjamin then only buying Monkey Banks.
 * Teammate badges on the teammate screen before starting a co-op game may or may not determine the skill of that player. A player who has 6 Easy badges might be better than a player who has 1 Hard badge and vise versa. It is best to not rely on a single teammate to carry on co-op.
 * Rounds 40 and 63 are the most infamous rounds on a Co-Op game, and will be the rounds that most players will lose on, especially when playing on Quick Match.
 * To combat round 40, you should attempt to farm up defense to pop a M.O.A.B. and buy at least one MOAB Mauler.
 * Round 63 can be beaten by buying two Blade Maelstroms and timing both abilities correctly.
 * Do not spam cash requests or spam money sends. It is annoying and only increases your chances that your teammates will mute you. Additionally, it takes off more time off the main defense for the team to put up with these antics.
 * You can use emotes properly to warn teammates to improve their defense, as it is easy to forget about camo, lead, or MOAB defense.
 * Playing with teammates on different platforms seems to have an impact on lag and disconnections. Whenever possible, try to match with teammates on the same platform (i.e. playing with teammates on mobile if you're playing on mobile).
 * Playing private matches can be better than playing Quick Matches, as most players will be more skilled than players on Quick Matches.
 * You can also treat this mode like Half Cash and attempt the same strategies here.
 * Arguably, a Co-Op game can be harder than a single player game due to less amount of money to build towers.
