The BUFFED Monkeyopolis Is ABSURD Right Now! (Bloons TD 6)

I feel like the best solution to buff the monkeyopolis is this: Each additional farm sacrificed to the village gives more income compared to the last The village would its serve its intended purpose for being useful late game, but not overpowered for early game

[@danielmclaughlan8650]

Isn't that what they did before?

[@John-ve4gm]

@@danielmclaughlan8650 no it was only based on money spend on farms not how many farms were sacrificed

[@danielmclaughlan8650]

@@John-ve4gm well it at least both of these are a better solution than this for the monkeyopolis

[@arikrex9978]

Can't you then spam 000 farms?

[@crimsontwilight4501]

The better way could be the amount of levels, perhaps? Perhaps something along the lines of (1000 + 100 x levels) x buildings? Or something similar, at least?

Organizer here, thanks for playing, it means the world to us. A few notes on some of the issues you brought up: Next tournament (yes there will be more) will be score based elimination until much much later. Given this is the first event of this scale ever, there were bound to be bumps in the road. We totally agree that a bracket system especially for this type of game is WAY too RNG. We're sorry you got the short end of the stick (I personally had you going to t4 in my personal bracket) and hope you understand this is a learning process for everyone. I just want to reiterate that we really enjoyed watching this content as Organizers and are ecstatic at the response the viewers outside the tournament have given. Until then, keep popping bloons and hopefully see you next time when we have an even bigger and better tournament sometime next year!

[@pascalthecurator3368]

I'm assuming this is what y'all have in mind but I think Trackmania's Cup of the Day kinda has the whole tournament format figured out decently well, although of course with needed tweaks for the scale of these brackets. Also, any thoughts on co-op challenges being used?

Hey Isab, I’d honestly love to watch you play the challenge even though you’re out of the tourney and compare scores with the people still in the running. This is some super interesting content. Prob my favorite series that I’ve seen on your main channel in a while. Love seeing the challenges and the cool strats. It’s all basically an optimization game, and most other content is “pass or fail”, or has some element of meme/joke. This is “do your best, compete with the best, may the best player win.” Such a breath if fresh air.

[@kaboomkp]

I agree, these challenges are much more interesting than a lot of the community challenges in the in-game browser

[@callumswift5341]

[@galaxystudios370]

Ggs ISAB. You had a good run. I'm honestly surprised I outlasted you in this tournament. I'm out now, got eliminated in Round Six, but I'll still be covering everything that happens. Here's to the rest of the tournament.

I think that they know they need to try waaaayyy harder when going against you. Which skews their performance against you way up.

You could’ve placed geraldos trading card as well to get 100% efficiency, just something I noticed

I think it would have cost too much, at these rounds it would probably be about as efficient as a farm.

[@Pencil_Frog]

Yeah I was thinking the same about the "1v1" style brackets. It doesn't really make sense in this style of game-definitely should've been a "top x% advance" style tournament. Anyway, congrats on getting unlucky.

[@Tsp1ke]

you should definitely keep this tournament up and try your skills against the other players. Also that idea you had at the end about the top X players advance seems so much better then 1v1 and its kinda RNG based on who you get. This and the letters series are my top 2 favorite series you have i hope they host another tourney cause these are so entertaining.

[@hacatu]

It would have made more sense to break ties by accounting for fractional paragon degree, but I can see that that might have been annoying. Since in game it only shows the degree rounded down, so for every tie the organizers would have to count the money spent, pops, and upgrades on every wizard, plus the number of paragon totems Still, this is a good challenge, gg isab

[@amphiapple7890]

ties are broken not by the rounded degree but on total cash spent throughout the entire round.

[@maryhassellpetty670]

I wish the tournament was done like in trackmania where X amount of the lowest scores lose

[@fuzzgoboom]

literally just started playing trackmania today because it recently came out on console. their tournament style is pretty enjoyable, i think something similar would be a good idea

It's definitely most efficient to triple discount the monkeyopolis and 0-0-0 sacrificed farm and selling the other discount farms even without favored trades.

[@epicness2632]

Next tournament better be Squid Game style.

[@gavinkemp7920]

Actually those stats show that their is almost no correlation between the rank and the average placement, the rank only explains about a third of of the overall placement. You still got rather unlucky but that is what that graphe is showing advancing is largely going to be luck based. This would be also the case if the top n player went on to the next round. If they wanted to demonstrate who has the best overall score they would want to use a point based system like what is used in formula 1 but they are generally less exciting.

[@TheAwesomePal]

Wouldn’t bottom path spike storms be able to help more with the bad since they stay on the right path

[@scribblepear1076]

Hey ISAB, how’s your skin condition so far?

[@VladLad]

Im not the greatest at the game and I've set a personal challenge to see how far I can get in Half cash. Prior to the monkeyopolis buff I wasnt able to get very far. But after the buff I finally managed to get to a vengeful in half cash.

[@yaboishadowninja]

I still think the fact that you got into losers bracket because a bunch of people used a bug that literally trivialized the round is bs. I have faith that you wouldve gone pretty far in the winners bracket. Either way, good video. W Isab.

[@mothrahlurker788]

Well it didn't trivialize the round as it was still hard to pull off even if you know about. ISAB said so himself.

[@filiplass7442]

​@@mothrahlurker788 Just because something requires a lot of setup, does not mean it does not trivialise the round. Just imagine you are playing an RPG game and every enemy has a lot more HP than you and a lot more DMG than you. You are hardcore struggling to even beat a few normal mobs, not to mention the bosses, who are much stronger that normal enemies. However, you know that there exists a bug/exploit that allows you to basically go god-mode. You watch videos about it, to learn how to do it and then you spend a couple hours trying it, and after about 5 hours, you finally did it. It took a long time, but now, instead of having to attack enemies 20 times to kill them, you kill them in one hit. Instead of dying in 2 hits, you can no longer die. The bosses aren't an issue anymore either. You have pretty much won the game already, simply thanks to performing this bug/exploit. Do you get what I'm trying to say? Yes, the supposed exploit took a couple hours to do and hell, maybe the players who all tied for 1st place spent more, but that does not matter. What matters is that once the bug/exploit was done, the round was just over. There was no longer any fun in trying to do your best, in struggling, in beating your opponent. Just an empty, pointless round. If you can just oneshot every enemy in the game and also not die, what even is the point in playing a game like that? That's my take on it.
