What Is The FASTEST Tower In BTD6?

[@MackanRules]

Hit the like button faster than a spike storm or i hate u

[@Winterr-n1w]

ok

[@thebestfan389]

Ok

[@Kak0yTo4el-hji]

Ok

[@DagothXil]

but Mackan, if we hit the like button 200, 1000, or 2000 times it'll end up un-liked because those are all even numbers edit: oh, right, you did say _faster than_ so I guess 201, 1001, or 2001 would work out just fine edit 2: ...... also I guess you didn't say we had to hit the like button at the speed of a spike storm for exactly one second, either. My original joke was not very well thought-out......

[@VeryMonkelol]

I did before the video loaded does it count😢

[@snowdrop9810]

You forgot shrapnel. If you're going to count each spike as 1 damage, you 100% SHOULD have counted shrapnel as an attack.

[@fergalhennessy775]

Then recusive cluster would win tho

TRUE

[@krokodilgena637]

​@@fergalhennessy775that's seriously debatable

[@BlueBlade256]

Remember the tests were all done on single target and last time I checked the shrapnel didn’t hit the balloon that was shot

[@ishanballa8017]

Since this test is about the fastest attacking tower, multiple projectiles shouldn’t be counted since they all shoot at the same time. I say the elite defender is the winner

[@atharvaarya5007]

yes I agree

[@XLGamer10]

Multiplying attacks per second with projectiles would just give you the projectiles per second. An attack in the game isn't dependent on the amount of projectiles

[@ShinyTillDawn]

I thought that was only for boats and subs

[@ham_the_spam4423]

@@ShinyTillDawn It’s not just for boats and subs. If you micro the Elite Defender, you can squeeze out a bit more DPS than usual as the Last buff combines with the Bloons getting further along the track, setting them back to First when they one reaches the end and triggers their self-buff. When done correctly, it’s satisfying to watch them single-handedly clear the entire wave.

[@sfisher923]

I forgot it was for all Military Monkeys since about 98-99% of the time I seen it used are on boats

[@rmlgaming2091]

1:30 by that logic, sav sends out 3 per attack

The fastest tower is obviously Quincy as nothing gets past his bow

[@maxwellgao1662]

It seems the ultraboost buffs stack additively, not multiplicatively. So 1+.667+.667 = 2.34 (I did computer science too. (i did not)) which is a lot closer to your measured value

[@btdoverclock]

Ultraboost stacks are multiplicative from my experience

[@krokodilgena637]

Mackan how far can you get with 100k? What about 200k? What about 500k? What about a million? Etc.

[@amphiapple7890]

If you didn’t know, at a certain point the game stops processing attack speed increases and instead changes faster attacks to more damage. With buffs however usually the extra damage is worse than attack speed so there’s a natural discrepancy when hyperbuffing any tower in the game.

[@btdoverclock]

Isn't it like adding an extra projectile instead of adding damage? And these projectiles don't work with debuffs which add to the discrepancy?

[@tpfoxCastro]

@@btdoverclock Extra projectiles tend to work with debuffs. Towers with a lot of projectiles tend to be good with debuffs

[@pickandshot]

@@tpfoxCastro Extra projectiles added from a tower attacking super fast (like a hyperbuffed sun avatar) don't work with debuffs which is probably a bug, but extra projectiles naturally (like from a triple shot or overdrive) aren't bugged

[@tpfoxCastro]

Anti-Bloon also has two arm arms and you didn't give it double attack speed because of that, I think that counting more projectiles as attack speed doesn't make sense when a bloon's hitbox effects how many of those projectiles are hitting. Also, Alchemist. Berserker brew is literally the reason why there's an important difference between tons of projectiles and tons of attack speed.

[@alexdiezg]

You missed the very niche X-X-2 spike factory boost at the start of every round. For a 0-5-2 spike factory, activating its ability at the start of a round makes it produce spikes at 4x (!!!!) the rate which means it produces 2x more spikes compared to a 1-5-0 spike factory.

[@bobbill8115]

I think this only works in btd battles2

[@ZOZOYOYO69]

Well, if you want to get technical, the fastest tower would probably be the North World Trade Center tower when it exploded.

[@justenoughrandomness8989]

AMAZING (it's not in btd 6 tho)

[@sandiseferp352]

I don’t think each individual projectile should be counted as an attack if they’re all thrown out at once. That would be counting projectiles per second where as an attack it’s how often a volley of projectiles is thrown out

[@EvanSpleen]

It’s always a good day when mackan uploads

[@simonpreis2151]

Ray of doom ?

[@TrueGlitchyGaming]

true..

[@YoshiAteTooManyYoshiCookies]

Ray of Doom can literally miss pinks if you are turning it. I think it only attacks like 4 or 8 times per second.

[@justenoughrandomness8989]

it doesn't actually have a crazy attack speed, just a decently fast one, the laser is a lie

[@bobosniff3336]

@@justenoughrandomness8989ye it just has a lot pierce i think

[@dragonslayerz2220]

Spike storm does not shoot 1000 projectiles per second. Each pile is a single projectile with a pierce amount of either 5 or 10.

[@patrickkujawski2511]

Sentry Champion: Exists

[@friendscollector1040]

doesn't the sun avatar have 3 projectiles?

[@martinshoosterman]

If including buffs than either the max shinobi grand master, Max shinobi total transformation subtower Or the sentry champion should win.

thanks i didnt know i needed this but i did need it

[@nikolapetric7089]

I count something as an "attack" based on alch buff, so tack zone shooting 32 projectiles is imo a single attack. I consider Elite Defender a winner on this one

[@charlescalvin3421]

Congratulations on not burning your entire brain cuz mine was already burned 😂

[@RS-uv4uz]

Awesome btd6 science video! Just curious why you did not add embrittle/sbrit gluestrike etc? Edit: i guess you only used buffs, not debuffs 😢, still would be curious to see how that would affect the numbers!

[@20Itachi_Uchiha05]

i mean if we count all the attacks of all the sentries + the act of throwing them + the actual main engi attack (all of these get affected by attack speed buffs so i belive they should all be counted as attacks and since the engineer's pops also include sentry pops they should all be considered as his attacks) then i think sentry champ takes the w

[@ClayGaming-zd7es]

I genuinely thought there was a limit of how much a tower can attack based on a tick system. Learn more about BTD6 every day, even with thousands of hours

[@MasterXy3911]

Also what about towers that can stack with more buffs like Shinobi or druid of wrath? Also wouldn't carrier flagship Also be capable of making an argument if all three planes were firing as well as the ships cannons? I think tack shooter should be disqualified. Engineer would be a more interesting candidate though

[@ShinyTillDawn]

The sniper paragon should have 10,000 attacks per second!!

[@foxwhistle]

this isn't counting powers, with the energizing totem or monkey boost. Also I wouldn't count Tack Shooters' multiple projectiles as they all originate from the single attack.

[@Marian_DRG]

042 spactories should be faster than 240 at the start of the round since smart spike does x4 instead of only x2 of more spikes

[@gunnarstrand7109]

5:37 Mackan moment

[@שחררפפורט]

You forgot Quincy, nothing gets past his bow so he have infinity attack speed

[@zionbowon]

We are talking about how fast it attacks Not how many projectiles it will shoot along with attack delay!

[@jjjoker5766]

Excuse my ignorance, but why are you not using a sun temple or call to arms? Do the TSG and Homeland cancel out the effects of them?

[@justenoughrandomness8989]

counting each spike as an attack is very unfair imo, it's just counting pierce, in that case middle path tack zone, super maelstrom, and a lot of others would get insane numbers even with a slow attack speed if you count each pierce as an attack

[@halt1931]

what about x42 spactory with the increased spike production at the start of the round? that buffs the ability, doesn't it?

[@DeArcher9000]

Ray of Doom?

[@distractor7011]

Why didnt you use a Energizing Totem? Did you neglect powers in general, or did you just not covered them in the Video?

[@loading...500]

Can the 5th tier spacktory release a storm at the same time as an ability use? If so, this would add many more attacks.

[@em6844-l5c]

of course the tack zone a tacks! its in its name!

[@endguiap]

Grandmaster ninja with 20x shinobi stacks attacks faster than Elite defender, I'm pretty sure

[@justenoughrandomness8989]

check if that's true

[@pickandshot]

A 20x shinobi grandmaster has an attack speed of 0.0409s, or 24.42 times per second which is less than even a sun avatar (0.03s or 33.33 times per second)

[@endguiap]

@@pickandshot I was thinking in terms of projectiles per second has he did in the video. Sun avatar has 3 projectiles, so 99.99 per second, while grandmaster has 9, so around 220 projectiles per second.

[@benro6564]

Bottom path super because instantaneous teleportation is faster than anything else in the game

[@TrixterTheFemboy]

If we're multiplying by projectiles, why doesn't the savatar get 3x the speed?

How was the druid not mentioned by the fact you count multiple projectiles

And dont forget you can use gwein coop with ezili to get even more speed!

It would either be heli, plane, or sauda with her dash as other monkeys don't move

[@gamingsupers1]

?why count eavh projectile as an attack

[@erierierierierie]

its confusing phrasing but in the context of the video, attack speed = times damaging projectile is sent per second, and attack = damaging projectile. so when theres multiple projectiles, there's multiple attacks. the question left to the viewer is to decide whether the question is highest attack speed or most attacks

[@nilpyc307]

now how many towers that have a alt attack like ninja bombs and cow drops arc puddles and engine turrets

[@Landons24s]

Would the sentry champions sentry’s count for this test, I feel like they would attack much faster than everything else

[@MackanRules]

Damn! How did i not think about it that way, it would have been interesting to look at that tower in that way too!

[@djwolfmont4223]

Doesn't middle path sniper 050 also add to the elite defender's speed (boosts all sniper reload speed)?

[@btd6vids]

If you're gonna count projectiles then why not count 025 sniper for the shrapnel

[@Dicqhaver]

does the sentries from the sentry champion count as separate attacks in this comparison?

[@marow.]

the fastest tower is obviously quincy cus he never misses

[@cynotic616]

Churchill's machinegun is a contender no?

[@mr_monkeyy2137]
