Quotes

When placed:

• "The best form of defense is attack."
• "I need everyone ready to mobilize on my command."
• "Bravo, Lima, Oscar, Oscar, November, Sierra."
• "Yaaaaarrrrr!What trickery is this?" - Captain Cassie(when Captain Cassie/Commander Cassie is placed after the other)

When selected:

• "Awaiting orders!"
• "Standing by!"
• "This is Cassie."
• "Yes sir!"
• "Scramble!"
• "Go ahead!"
• "Cut it out! We need to focus!" (when annoyed)

When upgraded:

• "Ready!"
• "Systems, check."
• "Stay in formation."

When activating ability:

• "Bravo squadron, engage!" (when activating Sidewinder Strike)

When a MOAB Class Bloon appears:

• "Sizable enemy threat in bound! Brace yourselves!"

When a MOAB Class Bloon pops:

• "Good work team! Stay vigilant."

When a Bloon leaks:

• "They're outflanking us! Switch to defensive maneuvers!"

Strategies

Like Captain Cassie, Commander Cassie is a water tower. She mainly attacks with darts, but can also add more weapons and attacks to her arsenal via upgrades. She's also the most powerful water tower in the game. Consider her when the tracks got space for water, or if the player has Jetpack or Lady Rainicorn.

When you get her to level 3, it is highly recommended to have her in the battlefield especially when using Dragon Fangs. However, in later patches, the Triple Barrels and Bloontonium Tips paths have become mutually exclusive, meaning Dragon Fangs may no longer be her best weapon if opting for the Bloontonium Darts path.

With huge speed increase effects, she can shoot MOAB maulers rapidly, crushing MOAB class bloons rapidly from a global distance. Iron Hull can be used for negative effect protection, or Jetpack for land placement. Missile is not recommended on her, as dart weapons lack high attack speed options, and she is one of two characters that cannot use Baker's Shard.

R/C Plane can shoot missiles with her level 5 ability.

Cursed Ice Ring, Heart Gauntlets, Cosmic Gauntlets and Doom Gauntlets will provide her 15% speed increases each, while Medallion of Brogends and Dagger of Chilled Glass will add 10% speed each.

Trivia

• The description for the Scramble upgrade formerly was "Place more of Cassie's flying allies" but has since changed after it was modified to allow placement of any of Commander Cassie's allies.
• If the player waits on the character screen, she will either pull her binoculars out and look around or start speaking on her microphone.
• Her quote "Bravo, Lima, Oscar, Oscar, November, Sierra" uses the NATO phonetic alphabet to spell out "Bloons".
• She is comparable to Admiral Brickell, due to both being water heroes with military related powers.
• The +1 damage from the Bloontonium Tips upgrade was added as a buff for the upgrade after the Bloontonium Tips + Triple Barrels nerf by introducing "Locked By" restrictions.
