Can Dart Monkeys Beat Every BTD Game

[@alice11307]

In some versions of btd4 there is an optional ‘upgrade’ that you can select in the menus similar to buildings in btd5 which makes the darts explode. With this it is possible to beat hard only using spike piles for camo bloons.

[@Phenomix]

That's really cool I didn't know that, I thought those upgrades all required spending real life money to get tokens. Maybe it's different on Mobile

[@pwrsocket]

@@Phenomixyeah btd5 mobile is kinda like btd6 monkey knowledge, you buy a plot of land and you can buy each towers buildings and they have upgrades you can buy for monkey money

[@genio2509]

​@@PhenomixThey do, only frag bombs for bomb is free. You could get NK coins with a roulette in the website, (as you may know), but it has been deactivated.

[@necroarcanistxiii]

@@pwrsocket Problem is you can only have one building active at a time, and it has an "opposite" tower that it makes more expensive, like Ninjas compete with Wizards, or Helicopters with Subs or something. I can't remember it's been ages since I touched 5.

[@rarestpepe98]

I remember being able to use only Dart Monkeys back in BTD4 with 'Splodey Darts, but I wanna say that's one of the pre-game cash perks, like how you could spend monkey money to have extra lives or extra cash

[@ethelegend]

"Dart monkeys can beat the hardest game mode in all of Bloons Tower Defence 6" Wow, it must have been really difficult to win with only dart monkeys in hal- "CHIMPS mode"

[@FranXiT]

Just so you know, half cash is like 10 times easier than chimps on this challenge. It literally ends on round 80. No sweat at ALL. Also full monkey knowledge.

[@imincriticaldebt1302]

This video definitely deserves some more attention

[@kidsIIIII009]

So basically BtD 1, BtD 5 and BtD6 are possible. The weakness is literally the leads which BtD 2,3 and 4 failed.

[@Phenomix]

Exactly lol that's the tldr version

[@Plazix999]

Also MOABs in BTD3

[@wongkajun2127]

[@BaylorRobinson]

its unfortunate how many btd games disrespect the dart monkey and his abilities. 😔anyways, incredible video! this is really well edited and reminded me of how many big creators edit. keep making vids fam!

[@Phenomix]

Thank you so much! It's been so awesome getting so many nice comments on this one.

[@Justrandomshorts-12345]

❤

[@boristheorange]

Duh, btd iant about JUST the dart monkey. Other monkeys should also be respected

[@StingRai08]

11:09 if you want to pop the MOAB, your best bet in that case would be to spam road spikes in front of the MOAB, especially with as much money as you had laying around. each one deals 10 damage to the MOAB for $30, so you easily could have popped the MOAB layer with that and let your dart monkeys do cleanup.

[@Phenomix]

Yeah you're right, once I failed with my own attempts, I should've been willing to use road items to beat the games. My goal was to only use them when they were necessary to pop leads, and I know I could've easily beaten the second game by just using the glue as well. Thank you for watching far enough in the video to notice that 🙏

[@StingRai08]

No problem 👍

[@ketchuplover6160]

i think you were too scared to use road spikes in btd2 and btd3. they're super useful and definitely would've helped you pop the moab, even the speedrun uses them for moabs

[@Phenomix]

Oh I agree 100%, especially with the 2nd game, I could've been successful if I used the road items more. Glue in that game is super powerful. I just wanted to try and have the dart monkeys do everything on their own besides the leads if that was possible. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment!

The fact that dart monkey was the first to have a game so it was the cheapest and the strongest when it had its paragon

[@AnemoneEnemy]

I miss the old dart paragon. It was so op. I want to see a mod with its original stats and how it compares to today's paragons

[@nelpski]

Just so you know, you can restart Chimps from the round you failed whenever you want. Oddly, it is the only mode in which continuing this way is completely free.

[@Phenomix]

Isn't that only when you're playing in the challenge editor though?

[@nelpski]

@@Phenomix Nope it is in regular Chimps now. I have no idea why this is the case but yeah. Edit: I think I remember them mentioning now that the reason they did it was because content creators exclusively played Chimps in the challenge editor to avoid needing to restart while doing challenges for videos. So now regular Chimps has free restarts from last round but doing this does not give you a black border.

[@rascaltherascal]

my right ear enjoyed this video

[@Phenomix]

That's my bad fr I didn't listen with headphones. Don't know why the thing I use to voice over did that

[@demo0616]

[@thexwhats2989]

0:25 I thought it's round 6 on C.H.I.M.P.S.

[@Phenomix]

Yea that was a dumb mistake on my part. I should've remembered how CHIMPS starts on round 6 because (I think it's round 4) would be too difficult in most cases

[@SmoothMcGlue]

[@donkylefernandez4680]

Dart Monkey Positioning is more important than Dart Monkey Coverage. Even when not using spike-o-naut you want to be taking full advantage of pierce.

[@deconstructor3582]

Since you have allowed "road items" to be used, then it means that it IS possible to beat btd2 with only dart monkey - you need to use glue item, that only appears on the track, which makes it possible to win that game mode.

Yeah I'm gonna remake this and actually get it done

Correction on the start, you CAN retry a round, even 100 in chimps. It’s just you get a red medal instead of getting your precious black border.

Good point I guess I meant specifically a true CHIMPS run

when I saw this video I thought this guy had like 50k subs, deserves way more attention

[@Phenomix]

So far I've gotten super lucky with the algorithm pushing it out, I really appreciate your kind words 🙏

[@IosLocarth]

I feel like you would have had a better time in BTD3 if you actually used in between rounds to place and upgrade your monkeys. I noticed you kept immediately hitting start round whenever one ended even though you were in the middle of wanting to place monkeys. That might have made all the difference

[@Phenomix]

You're definitely right I was rushing way too much with that one

[@user-xr6fj6gg5n]

Really underrated

[@genio2509]

Update: I don't think round 71 is possible ): For context: it has 10 moabs The best single target is lvl2 darts, that can only damage 2 at a time, so it is essencially 5 individual moabs, unless I want to spam spike-o-pults, that cost twice as much, so I get half as much, that won't beat BFBs. The only way I can see to get out of the round is to somehow pop the moabs and then autoclicker pinaple spam the insides, which is very cheesy and sad (and even still hard)

[@Phenomix]

Wow that's really insane and pretty awesome that you even got that far

[@RubenFedop]

Okay this is good so far, just one little problem, please make the voice overs mono, not stereo.

[@Phenomix]

I'm really sorry about that it must be from the editing software I used to voice over on my phone. I'm not sure why it did that.

[@BenjaminHull-mw1dv]

No. Military/magic only exists. You cannot fully beat btd6.

[@user-kc9lm3ev9h]

You should've also done bloons monkey city, bc it introduces the *DDT*

[@Supersonic6427]

This video was nice to watch, but one advice I'd give is better handling your mic quality. A very noticable example is 7:30 version 7:40. Oh, and you forgot to put a chapter for BTD4 at 11:29

[@Phenomix]

Thank you for pointing that out, I know the mic also caused an issue where the audio was Mono instead of Stereo, so I've actually switched to using a real mic instead of my phone for voice overs

[@robomonkey3472]

You should also try and win a game in battles one and two using only dark monkeys.

[@Phenomix]

Now that would be a crazy challenge there are so many good players in those games, thanks for the great idea I'll definitely have to try it out sometime

[@Car-rp8dg]

0:23 this is just factually wrong you can just retry last round now Also just wanted to say this is a pretty good video!

[@Phenomix]

I thought you could only retry last round in the Challenge Editor. Isn't the C in CHIMPS for "continues"?

[@Car-rp8dg]

@@Phenomix they added retry last round to chimps, technically it’s not a continue though because it doesn’t give extra money although I get the confusion

[@-Random-Games-]

Some dart monkeys are better than others, especially the btd6 one. Also, you can’t beat btd6 because of magic and military monkeys only.

btd2 is very easy if you use glue but some people think its also a tower, i think that glue is not a tower but some people may disagree :additional note here I'm 50/50 on on glue being a tower or not but idk.

[@Phenomix]

Yea I consider it a road item instead of a tower because it's one use and in the later games, all of the road items became projectiles for towers as well. So I don't think the road items themselves can be considered Towers. But my goal was to only use the road items when they're necessary, I think I might do a followup to this where I allow myself to use road items though
