[@Lorenzovd]

maybe you can make a more technical video explaining what the jar of pickles, sharpening stone etc. exactly does

[@az1202]

@@Lorenzovd Turrets deal 2 damage and 10 pierce. When they upgrade at lvl 13 they have 7 damage. Spikes do 1 damage with 10 pierce (so up to 10 total damage) upgraded (I think it’s 11) have 60 pierce, and they become mines at 14 (I think) Creepy idol has a 25% knockback chance, Erin on moabs at later levels, and applies an unstable concoction like effect to moabs at later levels. Pickle jar gives +1 damage, and +1 damage against fortified, and later +2, but decreases your attack speed by 20% (this means it can be a bad thing.) Quincy NFT is self explanatory. SInvis Pot gives camo detection for 10 rounds, and gives range at a higher level, as well as lasting for 25 rounds and giving +1 damage to camo. Glue can glue up to 300 bloons, moabs use 10 pierce, bfbs and ddts take 20, Zomgs take 50. Sharpening stone gives +1 pierce permanently, and +1 damage as well at a higher level. Worn heroes cape is self explanatory. Blade trap is basically a maelstrom, and and at level 15 it’s a SMael. His pepper’s basically give a dragon’s breath attack. Fertilizer is +25% banana farm money for a short time. Bunnies become an insane attack bunny when you get 4. Rejuv pot is self explanatory. Genie is more powerful then an 4-0-2 wizard, lasts 3 rounds. When upgraded it’s stronger then archmage. Paragon totem gives paragon degree.

If you use pickle juice on Geraldo, it will affect his turrets too. Just like the camo potion he has. This type of thing also works with monkey villages but it doesn't work with alchemist. Not sure about other buffs :)

yeah, I felt like my eyes were on fire when he used the pickles on the turrets and not on Geraldo

You don't want to put the pickle on Geraldo because it will also affect the genie

[@Dabloon]

Nice Dude!! Super clever using the crusher and the slow downs!

[@operationdarthstorm6556]

I have a strong feeling NK deliberately wanted to make 1TC possible. Because Geraldo can easily solo the game except for rounds 28 and 30, and it seems too much of a coincidence that NK puts a big crusher that is perfectly designed to take care of the one little thing which prevents Geraldo from being an easy 1TC (rounds 28 and 30), when no other map in the game has the power to even pop bloons, let alone pop lead bloons. Like literally, the last and only other time a map was ever capable of popping bloons was that temple-map way back in btd4 expansion. What do you think?

Upgradrd Turrets do i think 2 or 3 damage per shot, so it's worth putting pickles on them, as its +1 damage and -20% attack speed. If a tower does 5 or more damage per shot/projectile, putting a pickle on them reduces their DPS, because thats how maths works.
