	~ Short description

Captain Cassie is a monkey hero in Bloons Adventure Time TD, and is a character that can only be placed on water. She is unlocked by completing the Underwater City mission "Pirate In Peril". She works like the Monkey Buccaneer, but shoots bombs instead of darts and costs $600 to place. Captain Cassie has an alternate version called Commander Cassie, whose attacks work like a Destroyer.

Description

Just like Commander Cassie, she is a brown monkey with dark brown hair and eyes. She wears a red bandana and some gold earrings. She wears a pirate outfit, hence, her name.

Cons

• Average attack speed

Star Boost

Cassie will receive the following permanent boosts as she levels up:

• 2 stars - Base attack cooldown decreased by 0.1*
• 4 stars - Base attack blast radius increased by 2
• 6 stars - Base range increased by 4
• 8 stars - Base attack cooldown decreased by 0.1*
• 9 stars - Base attack blast radius increased by 2
• 10 stars - Additional, free crew allies permanently equipped (does not use an ally slot)

*Shows "attack speed increased by X" in the official patch notes and in the game - this is misleading. The attack speed stat is the inverse of attack cooldown.

Quotes

When placed:

• "Thar be somethin' in the water."
• "All hands on deck!"
• "Raise the anchor!"
• "Ya-haarrrh! Thee Bloons better start runnin'!" (when you place Sai the Shadow)
• "Yaaaaarrrrr! What trickery is this?" (before or after placing Commander Cassie)

When selected:

• "Captain on deck!"
• "Avast!"
• "Ahoy!"
• "Man the cannons!"
• "Yarrgh!"
• "Yes? I mean, Yarr?"
• "You'll be walking the plank if you don't stop that!" (when annoyed)

When upgraded:

• "Hoist the sail!"
• "Worth every doubloon!"
• "Yippee! U-ur-urrh, Yaaaaarrgh!"
• "That be some fine booty!" (when upgraded to Treasure Hunter)

When a MOAB Class bloon appears:

• "MOAB-y Dick on the horizon!"

When a MOAB Class Bloon pops:

• "Thar she blows!"

When activating ability:

• "Ya-haarrr! We've hooked the big one!" (after MOAB Takedown finishes)

When a Bloon leaks:

• "Man overboard!"

Strategies

• Her main source of damage is typically from her ability, so she relies on cooldown reduction.
• If she does not have her ability unlocked, her best damage source comes from her grapes. Note that her grapes do not benefit from damage increases and only specific sources of damage, such as damage against MOABs, so opt for bonus MOAB damage and attack speed trinkets instead in that case.
• When placed on land with Jetpack equipped, she can free up some space in water for her crew allies to take. If there's no water and the player lacks Lady Rainicorn, she cannot use her MOAB takedown ability and she is generally not good without her ability. Her Crew Upgrades upgrade gives two more crew allies. Warrior PB can help give her one more crewmate.
• If Captain Cassie is at level 5 and Supermonkey with Sun Avatar upgrade is in range, the secret Treasure Hunter upgrade will be revealed and available for purchase (once purchased, will yield the hidden achievement "Treasure Hunter"). This upgrade can be used as one of the many ways to generate more in-game cash, perhaps to fund Supermonkey's ultimate Sun God upgrade.
• She is best placed near the track as her grape shots spread out the further she is, less projectiles will hit strong targets.
• It's recommended that Anchors are spent on Commander Cassie instead, since she is a more powerful character in terms of damage output.

Trivia

• Cassie calling MOAB Class Bloons "MOAB-y Dick" is a play on Moby Dick, an 1851 novel.
  • It can also be a reference to the MOAB-y Dick track from Bloons TD4 Mobile.
• As described above, Cassie has a hidden Treasure Hunter upgrade that isn't revealed on her upgrade tree until specific conditions are met. This upgrade only reveals itself during these conditions, and does not stay permanently revealed once purchased.
  • Upon purchasing this upgrade, the player is awarded with a hidden achievement of the same name. When the requirements are met, it will show on the upgrade tree.
• Captain Cassie's pro "Can be placed on water" is misleading, as it wrongly implies that Cassie is already placeable on land and/or lava.
• Captain Cassie is hinted at not being a pirate（her description in game means her past）, as she breaks out of her pirate accent during the "Pirate In Peril" outro when Max demands her to join the fight for Ooo, and in one of her upgrade lines.
• There's a glitch in the Martian Games which makes her be placed on land. When the "Shuffle" rule is in Magic Man's Rules, there is a chance Cassie can be placed on land.
• Cassie has a second hidden achievement that is revealed if you place her in an underwater map.
