ISAB has given up on denying the memes, he’s joining ‘em, now.

[@darimikalam8965]

Would be interested in seeing isab doing a challenge where you can only use 3 towers, one for each path and no crosspathing.

[@UnknownGamer-bw3kz]

I just realized something even thought I have a lot of time in this game, top path is for pure damage most of the time, Middle path is fir abilities, and bottom path is for niche things like pushes back moabs and things fir 1 type of bloon.

[@raiserincoming]

Top Path is for basically pure damage, Middle path is for the ability, and bottom path for a unique trait unique to the tower, or an Interesting mechanic. For example, dart can have two corssbows masters on the map at the same time, prince of darkness summons blooms from the dead, and super monkey's legend of the night can summon a portal to void blooms when they leak.

[@GarryDumblowski]

It's not a universal rule, you could argue that top and bottom path subs should switch spots because of this.

[@live__mm3617]

I guess Isab must know best if Sauda is a Bottem or Top

[@Free-4554]

[@Sheriff6170]

This entire run i thought about the meme "Stop trying to make Perma-Spike happen. It's not going to happen.". It was beyond useless every time you used it, but every subsequent run you still used it. Even a no cross-path tack zone would have probably been better. Or a few recursive clusters.

20:30 - Im surprised you didnt drop geraldo's spikes they do quite alot of damage at max level. (The full pile is 1,960 damage for $550), im not sure it would have been enough to win but the BAD would have popped a fair bit earlier.

[@DagothXil]

Is there a reason isab never considered impale? It's about the same price as permaspike and _surely_ it and moab dom would destroy the 90s (it wouldn't have fixed the BAD problem, but still).

[@jamesknapp64]

Does Impale work on DDTs without 205? I guess DDTs weren't really the issue, but still isn't fixing the BAD damage problem.

[@rajkanishu]

Interesting video, I don't remember all balance changes for the past 10 months so I don't know if the towers you didnt consider were good or bad but today I feel like a Recursive Cluster could have certainly helped? Dark Knight or Champion could have provided the MOAB damage necessary for the later rounds, of course the problem is surviving, in general I don't understand the fixation over Perma Spike at all costs as it doesn't do anything if you don't build it early and it's even worse without crosspath

I think having the ultimate goal of a flying fortress would have been a good idea, and then using wizards for camo revealing, since flying fortress can beat everything through round 100 and Spectre is already powerful. The question, though, is whether there's enough money to save up for that, because spectre falls off after round 80. Alternatively, Dark Champion is a great monkey. I wonder how much worse he is without the top path crosspath.

[@hadesKIU]

I wonder how things could've gone with different towers. I don't know if a Dark Champion or XXXL Trap was a realistic save up on either game, but it seemed like holding off on MOAB Dom and P-Spike may have been able to carry, with both of them essentially being win conditions and the former actually having a shot at the BAD. While DC without crosspathing is a lot weaker, it's still a nuclear force of destruction against MOABs. XBM and Tack Zone are both decent without crosspaths, but both are also too weak to really contribute late game (especially without buffs). Spectre seemed like a genuinely good option, but I feel there were probably better alternatives that had actual use lategame. BADS or BEZ seemed like strong contenders as well. AOW could've put in work, but is overall questionable without crosspathing.
