The History of BTD6's Most Competitive Challenge: The 2TC
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 кві 2024
- Beating CHIMPS with only 2 towers is the most popular challenge in BTD6, and this is the full history of the 2TC. We start off with @KyrosQuickfist's run which was the first ever 2tc in BTD6 and we move on to cover the overall trends, new towers coming into the scene, and track the leaderboards throughout the entire video. So we can see what players have the most 2TCs and what monkeys are used the most in the unique runs.
Tons of footage was used from different runs but some quick shout outs are @BTDIsab @tooprood8825 @Extreminator418 @lombre9149 @ducanup01 @plisp @btd6index @FlareBloons @tai0fps
I want to wholeheartedly apologize for the mistake I made in addressing Lombre with the wrong pronouns. I'm sincerely sorry for referring to Lombre as he instead of their correct pronouns they/she. I know that this isn't only about the words themselves, but also about the respect and dignity they deserve. My actions were unintentional, but I'm aware that intent does not lessen the impact. Misgendering can be hurtful, invalidating, and can create a feeling of disrespect. I am truly sorry and will do better going forward.

There were hundreds of unique runs across several updates so hopefully I got everything. Let me know if you liked this style of video because I can definitely do more in the future!

Amazing video! I'd love to see more of these documentaries!
its now 1tc, right?
you did not get close to everything
this must've taken a massive amount of work to edit. props
This Video Was AMAZING, Maybe For More Serious Documentation Change The Music With Chiper Or Others The Like. This Video Was Awesome And I Hope You Would Do More In The Future!!

Classic NoobSimulator. What a legend for doing that
*insert gigachad gif*
Not gonna lie, I honestly hope we get a BTD animated series or even a movie telling the entire lore of the franchise and how the war between the monkeys and Bloons began
That would be awesome!
I've looked into it in the past, but animation is so expensive that I couldn't make it work :(
@@Hbomb that's fine, best to save the idea for later down the line anyway, helps us fans think up more ideas for the Lore of BTD especially since each of the games have little hints to the history ^^
@@mathewwatson-FireGem21True plus who knows,maybe in the next update we get a bunch of stuff like an evil monkey like we have previously in the lore in the form of a quest
@@LR_BUU_BOYS_ARE_OVERHATED true
I think SJB did that a while back
I remembered when SJB said that a 2TC with Ultraboost was impossible, now we are here with Ultraboost scoring 15 unique combos to this day, including one with the Crossbow Master which I was internally screaming with joy when the last FDDT was popped on R99. 😇This video was an absolute blast to watch throughout, must of taken a gargantuan amount of time to research into 2TCs, record, edit etc! I loved using the Absolute Zero with Santa Churchill! ❄A huge thank you for the shoutout Hbomb, have a nice everyone! 😄
Congrats on your recognition, Flare!🌟
Ultraboost WAS impossible. Then they buffed the price so now it’s possible
@@logert3921 Yeah in Update 35, Ultraboost's price was significantly reduced, which was when the first 2TCs on the Ultraboost were discovered.
@@christianbarbarin1109 🌠
Ayyy. Now we just need SJB to say that a 2TC with Super Mines is impossible, so hopefully we can get one with that too!
Actually really enjoyed. Thank you!
Love you SJB!!!
Forgot that Bloontonium Reactor used to just straight up pop leads
Right!? The good ol' days
@@HbombHey Hbomb, I'm pretty sure you added those little slides that tell you descriptions and stuff, MOAB doesn't stand for "mother of all Bloons" it stands for "Massive Ornary Air Blimp"
@@eggsygetrekt5655I think it was called both at different points
@@BeDatAPickle iirc, it was only called "massive ornary air blimp" but it may have been called mother of all bloons in btd3 when it was first introduced (i think so?)
Didn't it get patched just recently, after battles 2 came ou...
Battles 2 came out more than 2 years ago
This is the most inspiring, breathtaking and insane hbomb video ever. The quality it has is just insane. I'm just saying all of this because I'm probably mentioned at least once, I will now watch the video.
Nope. I completely skipped over you
Gonna be completely honest, I thought your username was pronounced Ex-Term-I-nate-or this whole time and not Ex-treme-I-nate-or lol
Great video! It's so cool to see a side of bloons I almost never get to experience! It brings me great joy to see so many talented creators in this space that can push bloons to its limits and explore what is possible in this amazing game! Much love Hbomb, keep up the amazing content! I was here before a million views! haha.
I wouldnt say great
good but you can only expect so much from someone who only looked at the website and didnt even join the index server and talk to people in the community
Amazingly this kinda just scratches the surface. This community is so deeply entrenched in the intricacies of the challenges they take on, it's impossible to cover it all without losing most of the casual viewers lol
Hour long Hbomb video? What a change! I bet this was inspired slightly by the TRUE history of bloons by orangE
It was inspired by that and Tewtiy's The FINAL Boss Battle in Bloons!
I figured it was my turn to put in WAY more work into a video and see how people like it :)
@@Hbomb I feel like it turned out well, I guess you got your place in the hall of Bloons
Wow, absolutely amazing video Hbomb, a huge thank you so much, for crediting me for Corvus 1tcc, that took just an absolutely absurd amount of effort from not just me, but the rest of the community aswell, as soon as we found out he could camo solo, we just took it as far as possible until I was finally able to break 95 at like 3am the night before a giant calculus test (yes that was originally me, masmaves got it from crow, who got it from me lol) (i did not fail the test somehow), amazing video, huge thanks!
What about mir0 who had saved up like 10 corvus camo solos before anybody knew about it?
@@-0_. lol true true
i've always said trans people do some of the hardest things in gaming you are helping to prove my point
@@Transgender__ im the lombre im trangender
Lmao, let's be honest. Bloons is more important that Calc
👀2 towers chimps history... 2 million pops chimps history next?
👀
If it takes as long as this one... it'll be out in about 3 months :)
I was shocked to learn that Dennis was still in the game. I had thought that he was out of the scene for a good four years now, but apparently Golden Apple is his CT team.
Huh, the more you know.
I guess most of the games that I was really good at a while ago I'm still somewhat active in. So that makes sense
I absolutely love this video. You did an amazing job. I'm really invested in 2tcs and have been for years.
Wait a second, there's an in-game achievement for 2 TC now?
I stopped playing shortly after the Benjamin patch so I never knew it was a thing...so um....I don't have the achievement for 2TC. 😂
Hello my goat i love you thank you for causing such an important part of my life
the btd6 community changed me in so many ways (not always for the better but oh well) and it wouldnt have happened how it did without you
im eternally grateful
Lmao. That is so funny
I'm glad you swung by, you started a massive community around this challenge :)
3:07 MOAB doesn’t stand for ‘Mother Of All Bloons’ is stands for ‘Massive Ornery Air Blimp’
It’s does stand for Massive Ornery Air Blimp, but it’s derived from Massive Ornery Air Blast. Much like the actual bomb, most people (developers and community alike) refer to it as the “Mother Of All…”
It’s both.
You can argue about it, but there’s no point. It’s like arguing that someone’s name isn’t really John because their parents originally named them Jonathan.
@@Piktroin the first game it was introduced, ninja kiwi specifically stated that it was not mother of all bloons, but massive ornery air blimp. So even if some of the community may refer to it as that, it is inherently incorrect
@@Jells_ that’s true. According to Ninjakiwi, it DOES stand for Massive Ornery Air Blimp. I’m not arguing about that.
I’m arguing that a large portion of the community will *always* refer to it as the Mother of all Bloons, because it’s a parody of the *actual* bomb with essentially the same nickname, which precedes the game.
Ninjakiwi didn’t create the term MOAB. They can tell us what it stands for in the context of their own game, but they don’t get to remove the inherited properties or nicknames from something they didn’t actually create in the first place.
Like I said, it’s a pointless argument, but Ninjakiwi could also be considered “inherently incorrect.”
@@Piktrowhat a pointless comment. it stands for massive ornery air blimp and if you say anything else, you are wrong, full stop.
@@UltraLegoEnthusiast how about right, half stop? Maybe forward, quarter stop? Everybody keeps correcting me when I’ve already agreed with all of you, twice, on the name.
Talk about pointless comments 😂
This was such a cool video to watch. I love this style of editing, and you covered the history in a really great level of detail. Great work!
Great video. So much of this takes me back. I loved watching the new combos when they were rare and the ISAB ones had great production quality. It was fun getting to pioneer Ace completions even though so many people ended up so much better than me at Ace micro eventually. Love the history.
HOLY GOAT :000
Finally, a video like this! Great work!
Neat stuff! Though I haven’t played *as* much 2TC as most of the other Index challenges, I still hold it in high regards (when a lot of the milk isn’t involved, anyway) so this was a neat video to see. Keep up the good work 🌴
I really like these video essay types videos and im ecstatic that it seems like you're gonna make more! I'd love to see more of these about several things about the history of btd 6 (or other bloons games, but i mainly play btd 6)
It would be wise to see how other poeple make these "Full history of [Game Event]" videos to see how you can improve on them. I dont mean anything malicious by this or anything just some advice because having an idea of how these videos are usually formatted helps alot, and would save time
Thank you! I was sad I missed out on "The History of BTD6" because I had that written down in my list of ideas for years before that big video blew up. I think the next video of this by me will be the history of the 2MPC
Love these historian type videos. You are a legend sir!
wooo! I LOVE having hour long BTD6 content to go through. Fun video so far. It’s also funny being a recent player and seeing the old art for Moab class Bloons and WOF. So goofy
Lmk if you liked it all the way through, or if I should cut down a bit the next time I make a big video!
Thanks for this history lesson. Appreciate the the time and effort to make this video possible.
You should add the index to the description.
Additionally, three towers have yet to complete a 2tc (if we count sauda and gerry combos) that are theoretically affordable in CHIMPs. Those are Ben, Jones, and Super Mines. I have a bounty out on completions with those towers $50 for smines, and $100 for the others. Gwen (somehow, shockingly) was the fourth to last to be completed. I had a bounty out on her which was finally paid to tooprood
I just added it, good call!
Now I just want to see a smines 2tc
@@Hbomb So do I. So do I.
this vid was a nice trip down memory lane!
just putting it out there that shredder beat flying fortress in the mad dash to 2TC #110 for a brief crazy moment. The groundwork was laid with biper and I took a break.. until NK started dropping big buffs to fortress (gg extrem). But r98 solo tech went hard and shredder still had its moment
shoutout to plorder, missed but never forgotten
🙏🙏 thank you goat
the battle was fierce and I was honestly rooting for shredder cuz you guys were putting so much more effort into it but I guess the patch notes decided otherwise :(
I am a bit saddened by the fact the year long battle between the aces has come to an end, but it was fun lol
I didn't realize the monster I was creating when I introduced you to the index.
1 hour long Hbomb video about 2TC, this is gonna be a good one! I love your videos, specially the longer ones ❤
Haha, hopefully you like it!
I was inspired by This History of Bloons and Tewtiy's The FINAL Boss Battle in Bloons!
Where they put in a ton of work and made a longer video than normal
22:46 "This is a BIG combo" is the bestest name for that.
Hmmm this seems about as well researched as one can do without delving into the community themselves too deep, good job!
One major thing though is the fact that version hopping was allowed, so a lot of the runs that appear "done" in version 31 were actually done much later when players were allowed to revisit past versions (which is quite the process, unfortunately, but it did allow for some cool 2tcs)
For example I myself have never touched 2tc in version 31 until lately with this change, version 31 was also known as the most broken version of all time and had all sorts of wacky bugs that players didnt figure out in time despite the gap between 31 and 32 being the largest gap between updates and so it still had a lot left to give.
There were a few other past versions that were touched upon too iirc, but the vast majority of stuff was done in 31 so the numbers there are a bit skewed
another small thing to mention would be saudas ban only happening after the geraldo 1tc
theres a lot more that was missing too but overall without beyond extensive research that is unreasonable to be expected from anyone, this is a great video to catch up to the history of the challenge with! Great job.
Thank you! I should've reached out to a few 2TC-ers to see what to cover, but I'll just have to do that for the next in-depth video. I'm glad you liked it
Oh man this is your best video yet dude. Amazing work!
fun fact ninjaBmans completion of obyn anti is often suspected among players to be cheated but has been grandfathered in as it is so old
Oh? What cheat is suspected?
your name has an interesting reddit thread pop up when it's googled
@@jeffe2267 i would get it taken down if i could its pure misinformation
dont get me wrong i was an awful annoying toxic person back then i am NOT proud of who i was but it wasnt like that i was never bigoted i never said slurs
that fucking post i hate it so much
@@vyor8837 with how low the proof standards were back then naming any specific way of faking the completion is an absurd thing to try and do but with the positions of the towers r100 seems impossible based on modern analysis and especially there is no known way to have the arms behave how they are shown in the screenshot of the end screen
we have access to the version that the combo was done in and many people have independently come to the conclusion of it being faked
@@lombre9149 cool, good to know.
This is one of the best videos that showcases a game history while also making it understandable to people who don't know anything about it.
Amazing video keep up the good work
Just finished work. This video is great to watch on the ride home and the walk. Really do love long form content, so this is super nice.
Lmk if you liked it enough for me to make more of these. It was fun to make, but WAY more work than normal. So I want to make sure people like them before I make more
@@Hbombvideo is excellent. The only thing I feel is missing is some background music. For long form content, I feel emplemon has the best mix of background music that’s interesting enough to where you can perfectly hear it, but it never interrupts and makes the viewer not pay attention to your commentary. I would perhaps look into something similar for longer videos, if possible. Aside from that, extraordinary video.
Holy fuck, I'm so excited to see long form content from you! I bet this'll be awesome!
Hopefully you liked it. I was nervous about making a video this big
@@Hbomb It was a GREAT video, I wasn't really bored at all watching it and was kept interested the entire time.
Hbomb went all out for this one. Excited to give it a watch.
It's been in the works since February!
as an ex-moderator of the index from the early days, this brings back so many memories!!! Although I was much more involved with 2mpc, 2TC still holds a special place in my heart. If you ever need help with info for a 2mpc video though, feel free to get into contact with me, and i’d be glad to help out :D
I wanna throw up seeing the OG blimps..
Lmao
And look at the old wall of fire texture! Makes me feel nostalgic.
Nice. Hopefully one day we can see a part 2 in which I have the most og's. Currently in 4th rn
what if i come back 🗣️🗣️🗣️
(this is a joke fuck no never not in a million years)
@@lombre9149 not until you have every red ball record
@@grandma2263 FUCK
This seems very cool, gonna give this a watch :D
Let me know what you think. I didn't know about the old version 2TCs so some of the later ones are out of order. Oops
hello Mr archmage
@@spok_real he's mr 1tc sauda
"In 29.0, the Wizard Lord Phoenix picked up 6 new combos, 4 of which were by Extreminator."
Bruh I got snubbed out of this whole vid. While my other 2tcs I understand cause they were part of large groups, this was unforgiveable.
I DID DOUBLE WIZ IN 29.0, TWICE
First time anyone did 2 of the same starting tower, and it wasnt even mentioned
rip
actually tho double wiz is so fucking cool
Okay "The King of Aces" is the most badass nickname I've ever heard
These are truly achievements, Ive only done a few 2TCS... and they were either easy ones that were done already, or brutal ones i couldnt even finish.. the thing i feel most accomplished with this game tho is when i got 2mp with gigantosaurus on frozen over day 1 of his release lol
A Salt style chimps doc, love it 🥰
19:25 I actually started alt map 2TCs! Alt map doesn't necessarily refer to non-logs; it directly refers to completing existing combos on different maps than the original (which tended to be logs).
didnt it start with you alt mapping obyn anti?
my bad line altted obyn anti you altted archprime
I'm the Oskar, from 51:40, i wait for APC history smh
I'm still mad all of your 2tc proof were images. 😡
Jk. I would've loved to show some footage though
I was too lazy to record any 2tcs also didn't expected any real index history video about this, but ngl the video looks pretty good and the montage/animations are epic so it would be interesting to see the same about other index challenges (or maybe even ,,mauler" ones)@@Hbomb
apc isnt interesting enough tho
A 1 hour informative video, lessss go!!
Man, I remember the times when getting a 2tc was an if question, not how fast. Tyler's obyn and dark champion was definitely the craziest
Holy shit The 1st 2 chimp challenges was uploaded on my birthday
I’m excited to see how this continues to grow, especially with the mermonkey coming soon
👀
Maybe that'll be my chance to get on the index!
It is unfortunately a bit of a dying community, videos like these could bring forward a wave of new people though which I am hopeful for. It'd be amazing to get some new names in there! My tip would be to indeed look at patch notes AS SOON AS THEY ARE OUT and try and do something with those, or any new towers/heroes that release with already well established towers like wizard lord phoenix, then rush those.
This Video Was AMAZING, Maybe For More Serious Documentation Change The Music With Chiper Or Others The Like. This Video Was Awesome And I Hope You Would Do More In The Future!!
Thanks! It was a ton of fun to make (and work). I'm excited to get better with music though, I think that could take the videos to the next level
Btw for anyone looking to achieve it... prince of darkness + ray of doom on resort
Adding a comment to appease the algorithm in hopes of more long Hbomb videos.
This is a great video, my only recommendation would be to maybe take it a little slower with some quiet background music. Just a bit of the btd6 soundtrack would do this already great video wonders
I'm so excited for more music going forward. I just got Epidemic Sounds, so hopefully I can bring more music into my videos!
Glad to see NK is working on balancing towers.
Man, I knew 2tc was popular from isab's and alien'srock's videos on it, but I didn't know just how beloved it is in the community
I know! It's way bigger than I thought it was
I remember using the ol’ Apache Prime + Archmage and it taking me hours. Honestly jealous it’s so easy now
I think I did the WLP + Apache Prime. I don't remember how many times it took though
You really channeled your inner SummoningSalt for this one, great job. Adding a music track to the background would help with the pacing and you may want to vary your speaking patterns a bit more to add more drama. Great stuff!
Thank you! Music is definitely the thing I want to work on most. Hopefully I'll get the hang of it soon
This is super well-made
i mean its very clearly 1 person putting in a lot of work about something they werent involved in rather than making sure they were telling an accurate stpry by asking the people involved
@@lombre9149 did you even watch it? He provided loads of evidence to back his claims
love the hour long video!
1 hour of Hbomb? We are blessed
Also incredible « description and effect » of upgrades i love it
Glad you like them! They were all the editor's idea
This is impossible as of update 41 due to the change to the carrier flagship miniplane darts damage type, but I would argue that the hardest 2tc combo ever was spirit of the forest + carrier flagship, right up there with archmage + comanche [before the update 35 buff]. For one reason and one reason only, and that reason is round 99. Every other round was practically free by comparison.
I guess I'll claim this combo since I can't find any evidence that anyone else did it, and understandably so. The required plane paths were unreasonably specific, and since you can't micro them like the ace, it very much felt like luck.
Great vid bro
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks you helped me beat it
I haven't finished the video yet, but there's a lot to talk about in the organization of the BTD6 index around a spreadsheet, QuincyBot, and a discord server
Amazing how this started as impossible without a glitch in one specific update, and became an entire category all on its own from there. I wish my screwups were so productive.
Lmao, same
I'd love to see this video idea with 2 megapops!
Im not really into btd6 much anymore, but I was into 2tc quite a bit, and I love documentary videos, so definitely watching this. I used to have multiple 2tcs to my name but after banning sauda I lost most of them.😢I still have Archmage Pirate Lord to my name tho.😊
Also, now we need a 2mp history video lol. I would love to see more documentary btd6 vids, and 2mp is just as worthy as 2tc, plus there might be other interesting things to cover, like apc or fttc.
The 2MP video will definitely be the next one
I wonder if there will ever be a btd 7? Maybe not.
I also wonder if instead of moab damage textures they add damage animations like you can notice the tearing and pieces falling off
Absolute banger video.
Thank you!
we love a zen rocket league reference
Entire movie be like. It was like a blockbuster
great video
Im pretty sure the xxxl trap+flying fortress was completed minutes before the next update dropped and the bug was fixed.
indeed it was
Some other combos worth pointing out are the combos which use two of the same tower, like two wizards.
this
Btd6 is such a great game it has quality and quantity.
Okay summoning salt
Tempted to attempt a 2TC now
there are tons possible if you are willing to become better than plisp at ace micro
Awesome documentary film
Yay, I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
today, a banger was uploaded...
Before this video, I thought Isab was a good and strategic BTD6/BTD battle/BTD battle 2 player, but maybe a bit above average. Now, I see him as so much better than I thought holy
what?
Extreminator418 🍉
Awesome Video but it would be better with the summoning salt music
I know! I'm still learning how to use music in videos well :)
I expected a SummoningSalt style of video
It wasn't it, but i wasn't disappointed
Haha, Summoning Salt inspired me to make this!
Him and Tewtiy's "The FINAL Boss Battle in Bloons!" video
very good video
love a good game history documentary, but please please add background music of some kind
I love how when the sauda 1tc came out people were like “fuck it, you win”
😂 Lmao
Hbomb continues to cook on every single video🔥🔥🔥🔥
Haha, thanks. I do the best I can
I can't be the only one who expected to hear summoning salt music 😅
Haha. I didn't want to copy him 😂
Removing Sauda and Geraldo does not make any sense. They are not able to do 1TC anymore, and they where able to do it only on one map each
version swapping is allowed we have access to old versions it simply wouldnt make sense
Summoning salt music would been perfect in this tbh
I know :(
One day I will get good with music.
34:37 wow this video must have been in production for a while then. I can't blame you tho since it must have taken a ton of work to make this.
Since early February!
Bro might be summoning salt
That's the biggest complement I've ever gotten :')
I remember when i saw my first 2tc of isabs quincy+ antibloon
The 2TC train is going smooth even nowadays. The chart will only get larger now due to the supposedly newcomers of this year, the Jetpack hero and the Mermonkey. What will they bring to the table to make them 2tc worthy, only when they are released will people expriment on them like lab rats.
Personal fave combo is Geraldo and Preempt
Dang, 2tc really used to be a challenge before Sauda just made it a walk in the park on resort
I know lol
Now just use Sauda or RoD on Resort and you're good to go
Something funny to point out about the 2TC Achievement... you do not HAVE to play regular CHIMPS to get this achievement... Odyssey also counts towards this (which yes means you can beat chimps with extra health... weird)
What would you say is the impact of Ninjakiwi making changes to the towers on the challenge scene? Would new runs which were enabled by tower buffs be considered less interesting?
yayy i have something to watch while im eating lol ❤ love u mr hbomb
Man i really rooted for that sky shredder guy..lets hope he comes back 😢
which one
The earliest one
@@mrrandom. nate? he is off doing his own thing havent seen him in years

@@lombre9149 I'm still lurking. I lost interest in 2TC after the PoD changes. I play every couple of months but I can't be bothered to learn new maps and towers at this point. I'm happy being a pioneer but it got too grindy for me and I obviously wasn't as skilled as you and some others when people started to actually learn and practice
