@@62sy Ah, gotcha. Wikipedia says the 1st game came out around 2007 which is when I would have been graduating college, plus I was never really into browser or mobile games back then.
Spiff, The big black blimps are DDT(Dark Dirigible Titan, That's it's name) is a Lead variant, Meaning only Juggernaut, Ultra Juggernaut, Crossbow master, and Plasma Monkey Fanclub(PMFC) can damage it. I would recommend getting the 5-0-2 Dart-monkey to tackle the Ceramics and have the PMFC take on the DDT's and the other MOAB class bloons. I don't know if you've tackled Monkey knowledge yet, But there is one in Primary at the bottom that lets you have not one, but TWO cross bow masters. they are great clean up. Once you have a two or three Super Monkey fan clubs save for the tier 5 even though it seems expensive you should be able to afford it once you have a solid Defense down. Edit: Plasma Fan club Exists.
@@ermilburn02 The paragon does not show if you do not have all the three tier 5's unlocked, at 2:00 he hasn't unlocked the top one, which he has on 10:52.
lets be honest, the DMP is so bad, all 4 dart monkey tier 5s can far outlast it, bc it cant be buffed, making it kinda useless unless you get a high degree, and to do so means you dont get the paragon until lategame, like r110+. also. VTSG, need i say more.
@@darcycurl8324 You do realize that getting the VTSG costs around $1.5 million on Hard, right? It's even more of a late-game tower than the Paragons are, which makes sense considering it's an upgrade for the most expensive and most powerful tower in the game. The Paragons only need $250k in sacrifices for max sacrifice value as opposed to the $350k for the VTSG, and the corresponding T5s are far cheaper too. Yes, the damage output isn't as high as a VTSG, but if it was then nobody would ever use the VTSG as it would be completely outclassed.
Yeah his lack of using target priority was one of his problems along side not knowing where to put some of the monkeys his crossbow was so badly placed
@@ShugoAWay He also spread out on his dart monkeys really bad at the start for that "neat even spacing." If he tightened it up he could def had added an extra 7 or 8 to each little lane and filled up the SMFC buff easier. (also never upgraded to PMFC)

One minor trick for surviving the early game, set the catapults to fire at the last balloon instead of the first. This way they will always launch their projectile through the entire line of balloons instead of tracking the one in front, so each shot does as much damage as possible. It's not very relevant once you get to the midgame, but early on it definitely helps you save money by not needing to place as many other towers.
When I discovered this, it was a game changer, especially given how certain maps have those areas with really long choke points. One juggernaut can solo in some maps and in others it is a horrible experience trying to utilize them to their max potential.
Spiff, you can use the super monkey ability on upgraded dart monkeys, they just wont affect non-dart monkeys. Also, they transformed monkeys benefit from their upgrades while they're super monkeys. Technically, since farms don't do damage, you can use farms to help with the cash - which would let you get the plasma monkey fan club and would have prevented your loss at wave 93.
He is using only dart monkeys. I think if he placed more 4-0-2 dart monkeys he would have done better, or just saved up for plasma monkey fan club. Though you get less cash from popping bloons overtime.
@@maxbingham7427 meanwhile in the mod making office: some random balloon: SIR WE CANT GET PAST! modmaker: GIVE THE CAMO ELITE FAST REGROW BLOONARIUS 100 MILLION HP
Having played this game a lot hearing spiff claim the ZOMG is the most powerful bloon is fun. Him meeting DDT's is also fun, I wonder how he would feel about the BAD
I always love how these videos start with "what would happen if you did this?" and then watch the power levels gradually climb up and over nine thousand while Spiff explains "well see when this thing happens I get this and because I have this, it allows me to do this which is damn near unstoppable"
5:00 "completely overpowered" Even after spamming them out to get a good dart monkey paragon. I can say with confidence, i am never ever going to use SMFC outside of getting a paragon.
If I get the monkey city upgrade on a village i might use it so that im not just wasting all of my free monkeys, its in no way overpowered though at all.
He never said the upgrade itself was overpowered, he just said when they convert into super monkeys they become completely overpowered. Also, remember he’s doing dart monkeys only so it’s not like has that many options.
@@kingderp1235 they aren't overpowered though... They are at best as good as a base supermonkey who maybe has camo detect.. I don't fault him for using them under the circumstances but they aren't overpowered. Sometimes a guy is wrong and that's ok, I'm not faulting him.
@@2drad279 uh you know that when they transform a 0-4-0 dark monkey is a lot better like 3x better than a 0-0-0 super monkey right? Anyway, I think the upgrade isn’t that good, but compare the super monkey they transform to to the 0-0-0 dart and they turn into “completely overpowered” monkeys. However, the ability doesn’t last long and that’s why the upgrade isn’t that good but the monkeys themselves are.
tip that you probably won't see: the weird black blimp is called a "DDT" and is a very fast bloon that has the properties of camo and lead bloons, and its children are regrow. also, after round 80, the ceramics change into what's known as super ceramics, which have much more health, but only spawn one child instead of two. this was done to reduce lag but still increase difficulty, so the strategy to defeat them is more based on damage rather than attack speed (altho obviously it's better to have both)
you could've used the ultra juggernaut and get more crossbow masters or even get a plasma monkey fan club, you definitely can at least see the BAD without using other towers/powers/heroes
Oh wow, I never thought you'd play this game. For thise wondering, its a great game, even on mobile platforms - it has the full content on mobile, and isnt as mindless as most mobile games these days. The developers are also very active with the community.

its so funny seeing new player's reactions to the DDT. for those that dont know, its basically a MOAB (blue blimp) with the properties of a pink balloon (speed), camo (undetectable to most monkeys), lead (cant be popped by sharp objects like darts).
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Happy to see Spiff plays this game too 😂 Spiff : *"ZOMG, basically the most powerful balloon in the game"* Elite Bloonarius : *"Am I a joke to you?"*
Dart monkeys are one of the best towers in the game btw. Crossbow master is definitely perfectly balanced and definitely cant obliterate everything with little to no help
I would like to respectfully disagree. Playing BTD6 gave me the distinct impression that much more work was put into how the game looked and sounded than the actual game mechanics. And it seemed to have even more items and whatever those hero things are tied to real money than I think is reasonable. BTD5 is, to me, the best game in the entire genre
What a glorious day! Spiffing Brit is playing the game that I obsessed over in university AND on top of that, he is doing the same little challenges I did. Truly a magnificent video to behold :D
I love playing Bloons- always have- and the crossbow master is one of my favorite units. So strong and absolutely destroys bloons. Very cheap compared to a lot of other tier 5 upgrades
Ugh that game, was a lot of fun till I spawned in an area too far from water to produce power iirc. Its been a long time but I had a super hard time building due to the land I was started on. And the game had no hard reset option on the site I played on.
As a BTD6 fan, I wasn't sure if I would like this video. I'm glad that Spiff didn't come in acting like he knew exactly how to beat everything, but simply wanted to try out the dart monkey challenge. And considering the limitations, lack of experience, and lack of monkey money, I was pretty impressed at how far he got! Great video!
So, those black blimps are called DDTs, and to destroy them, you need towers with all three types of popping power: camo, lead, and black. meaning they're immune to explosions, require camo sight, and lead power to damage, a tip from someone who wasted way too much time on this game
Great video love this game, also me and my mates have discovered an exploit in age of empires 3 definitive edition where any native units you hire from tribes don't count towards your populations cap, so you can have an army over 200 strong. Works in multilayer but not sure in single player
My favorite tactic in the last game of the series was to use endless waves of submarines as there was the bonus to hit everything that was in reach of something else other ship and the sub making all entities on the map reachable. So basically all could hit everything and nothing was save the problem Was a lack of water
Those are DDTs, which are camo, lead, black, regen blimps, whose children are camo and regen. So only your Juggernauts and Crossbow Master dealt damage. Also, there is a Monkey knowledge to allow two Crossbow Masters on the field at the same time, while also being alongside the Paragon.
Unironically started drinking Yorkshire Tea because I was standing in the tea section and couldn't think what else to buy. Pretty good stuff, thanks Spiffing.
Tssk Tssk Tssk. Spiff everyone who plays BTD knows you can beat it with only dart monkeys silly. Though Still I'm 100% looking forward to HOW you're going to breaking this exactly.
The trebuchet may be superior, however the catapult has one thing that can't be taken from it. It has underdog factor. It also is more well known, which gives it a popularity advantage.
I haven't tried the latest version, but Bloons tower defense has basically allowed you to win with just the dart monkey ever since the super monkey fanclub became a thing.
Fun fact: The name of the franchise was changed from Bloons Tower Defense to Bloons TD because “Tower Defense” is a trademarked name.

its so funny seeing new player's reactions to the DDT. for those that dont know, its basically a MOAB (blue blimp) with the properties of a pink balloon (speed), camo (undetectable to most monkeys), lead (cant be popped by sharp objects like darts).
@@TheCannibull also apparently a black Bloon (immune to explosions)
it's actually yellow speed not pink or purple speed
idk if this is the same as yellow bloon speed but its the speed of a ceramic
When Spiff said the ZOMG was the most powerful bloon I laughed thinking about what he had in store 🤣
The Spiffing Brit : The ZOMG is the strongest bloon.
the DDT and BAD : Are you sure about that?
DDTs, perfectly balanced bloons.
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Happy to see Spiff plays this game too 😂
Spiff : *"ZOMG, basically the most powerful balloon in the game"*
Elite Bloonarius : *"Am I a joke to you?"*
Elite Lych: bruh
Elite Lych: bruh
Elite Lych: bruh
@@memeboy4206 technically lych has less hp but... Drains buffs soo making it even harder than bloonarious
Bloonarius is a boss tho, the most powerful bloon in the game would be the fortified BAD
Dart monkeys are one of the best towers in the game btw. Crossbow master is definitely perfectly balanced and definitely cant obliterate everything with little to no help
On most easy maps, Crossbow master solos hard mode, the only difficulty is getting him.
@@alexandererhard2516 Benji + 3 farms (not instas) = crossbow master by r50
I love the fact that spiff has stock images with his own trademarks on them
Thinking the ZOMG is the strongest balloon in the game…
Ha, you FOOL!!!
I'm so happy to see this game getting the attention it deserves! It's so good and improves upon all the old games in every way possible.
It always had the attention it deserved, what are you on about? xd
I would like to respectfully disagree. Playing BTD6 gave me the distinct impression that much more work was put into how the game looked and sounded than the actual game mechanics. And it seemed to have even more items and whatever those hero things are tied to real money than I think is reasonable. BTD5 is, to me, the best game in the entire genre
@@madeliner1682 literally just play the game and win and you get monkey money i dont see your problem
What a glorious day! Spiffing Brit is playing the game that I obsessed over in university AND on top of that, he is doing the same little challenges I did. Truly a magnificent video to behold :D
YYYYYYESS!
Been hoping you'd do a video, on this game♥️
I love playing Bloons- always have- and the crossbow master is one of my favorite units. So strong and absolutely destroys bloons. Very cheap compared to a lot of other tier 5 upgrades
13:10 "how do you even defeat these things???" upgrade to plasma monkey fanclub
if he had plasma monkey fan club prob could have done it, that thing shreds rounds
Because of Spiff I've given up coffee and now drinking Yorkshire Tea & Yorkshire Tea Gold.
How is it? I've never tried Yorkshire tea before
@@frostysimo1394 I honestly don't know enough about tea to have a valid opinion. I like it though
Now he just needs to play Bloons Monkey City then I will be extremely happy.
Ugh that game, was a lot of fun till I spawned in an area too far from water to produce power iirc. Its been a long time but I had a super hard time building due to the land I was started on. And the game had no hard reset option on the site I played on.
As a BTD6 fan, I wasn't sure if I would like this video. I'm glad that Spiff didn't come in acting like he knew exactly how to beat everything, but simply wanted to try out the dart monkey challenge. And considering the limitations, lack of experience, and lack of monkey money, I was pretty impressed at how far he got! Great video!
Him actually dealing with the first DDTS was impressive
So, those black blimps are called DDTs, and to destroy them, you need towers with all three types of popping power: camo, lead, and black. meaning they're immune to explosions, require camo sight, and lead power to damage, a tip from someone who wasted way too much time on this game
I never new they were immune to explosions. I thought Moab maulers can damage then with camo sight.
they arent immune to explosions, they require explosive-type damage to damage
@@forlackofawetterbird they have immunity to sharp and explosive damage.
@@chillcannongames5758 the abilities can (provided they have camo detection) but the natural projectiles cannot
@@forlackofawetterbird Nope, they ARE immune to explosions
Thank you Spiff for all the hard work! I salute you... **raises his cup of tea, then takes a sip**
I havent played this in forever!!! Good memories, thank you Spiff!
12:07 his reaction to the ddts is exactly me everytime they suddenly appear 😂😂😂
Spiff's reaction to the DDTs is probably what we all felt the first time we saw them. I know I did 😂.
Spiff: ZOMG is the strongest.
BAD: Am i a joke to you?
Bloonarious : am I joke to both of you?
@@Cookiekopter VTSG: yes, yes you are
Nah bro DDT-s are the strongest
@@Cookiekopter Yes, i haven't played Bloonarius yet
Great video love this game, also me and my mates have discovered an exploit in age of empires 3 definitive edition where any native units you hire from tribes don't count towards your populations cap, so you can have an army over 200 strong. Works in multilayer but not sure in single player
spiff: the zomg is the most dangerous bloon
BAD: allow us to introduce ourselves
"Here comes the Z.O.M.G basically the most powerful blood in the game"
Elite bosses have entered the chat
My favorite tactic in the last game of the series was to use endless waves of submarines as there was the bonus to hit everything that was in reach of something else other ship and the sub making all entities on the map reachable. So basically all could hit everything and nothing was save the problem
Was a lack of water
"ZOMG the most powerful bloon in the game" oh no, he doesn't know about the DDTs or BADs
Maybe he is btd5 veteran, So dont be So suprised
Bloons is a masterpiece.
Oh boy.. you'll go nuts when you discover the real masterpieces in games
@@earlgrey2130 No this Ender guy is right. Bloons is possibly the most addicting game ever committed to code.
I miss bloons I used to play it alot
I play it too much.
Well, its a great time to get back into it, BTD6 is going strong with new updates at the moment, and a new game, battles 2, is coming later this year.
I saw this title and said "These are words, but what do they mean arranged in this fashion"
Every time he says gentlemen, I always just want him to append "and ladies of the jury"
Lots of dart monkeys are a common sight with the editions of paragons tbf 😂
Spiff I have been grinding this game for the last month, loving every second of it. It’s so weird to see you playing it all of the sudden lol
Reads title, thinks about having acheived this myself with every BTD. Mmm, not impossible.
Those are DDTs, which are camo, lead, black, regen blimps, whose children are camo and regen. So only your Juggernauts and Crossbow Master dealt damage. Also, there is a Monkey knowledge to allow two Crossbow Masters on the field at the same time, while also being alongside the Paragon.
Unironically started drinking Yorkshire Tea because I was standing in the tea section and couldn't think what else to buy.
Pretty good stuff, thanks Spiffing.
this is literally the only game i play on my phone
Literally the only mobile game without ads
friend?
@@frostysimo1394 its paid
@@alastorclark3492 yes that's true... But it was more of a joke about the fact that so many games have ads
ew a mobile player
Tssk Tssk Tssk. Spiff everyone who plays BTD knows you can beat it with only dart monkeys silly.
Though Still I'm 100% looking forward to HOW you're going to breaking this exactly.
i love the spiff but it was hilariously infuriating seeing how inefficiently he did everything lol
For some reason every time i watch your videos, makes me remember of "Total Biscuit" channel.
Ahhh good times.
The trebuchet may be superior, however the catapult has one thing that can't be taken from it. It has underdog factor. It also is more well known, which gives it a popularity advantage.
I can't wait until Spiff gets the last dart upgrade and see the secret upgrade, if he ever does
Day 189 of asking Spiff to play Battle Realms. A kind of game I would play on a saturday night, great to know it is perfectly balanced.
"But why go for something incredible and impressive when instead you can have a monkey with a dart"
- The Spiffing Brit
Epic! I'd love to see more BTD6 content from this channel
This is the first time we didn't get any exploits and he did not even break the game the power of Yorkshire tea has let us down!😵
The upgrades does buff the monkeys when they transform into super monkeys
Only as long as they aren't tier 3
I haven't tried the latest version, but Bloons tower defense has basically allowed you to win with just the dart monkey ever since the super monkey fanclub became a thing.
Whoever says b*loons INSTEAD OF BLOONS has NO CLUE about this game and deserves to be absorbed by the Sun God.
Zomgs: the most powerful balloon in the ‘game’
The bosses: allow us to introduce Ourselves
9:10:"The ZOMG,the most powerfull bloon in the game"
BAD:Am i a joke to you?
Bloons used to be my GAME!
“Zomg, the most powerful one in the game” the purple and fast ones: am I a joke to you?
I’m pretty sure purple bloons are one of if not the fastest bloon in the game
@@r4sk3t96 no dude not the small purple one, the Moab purple one that’s bigger than the zomg, and then another that’s the fast one he saw at the end
@@Thunder_God_Eneru you talkin bout the bad and ddt?
@@r4sk3t96 idk I forgot their names. Btw the two that show up after the zomg
Does it infuriate anyone else that he hasn’t level up to ultra jug
9:07
"basically the most powerful bloon in the game"
**Chuckles** if only that were true
**wink wink**
0:51,before watching this video i've dropped all of the cat food and just spilled chocolate milk in myself and my couch
no paragon? im disapointed spiff i thought you would reach a higher level
