The Mermonkey

The Mermonkey serves as a unique magic tower, introducing specialized interactions with water and track-based combat. While it excels in specific map layouts with water access, its utility extends to versatile magic-based damage.

Maximizing Tactical Fluidity

The Mermonkey's primary strength is its ability to transition between crowd control and high-damage output depending on the chosen upgrade path. Players should leverage its placement near track bends to maximize the pierce of its trident-based projectiles.

Essential Synergies and Placement Nuance

Because the Mermonkey often relies on projectiles that benefit from long flight paths, it is most effective on straight-aways or tracks that loop back on themselves. Its magic-based nature also makes it highly receptive to Monkey Village magic buffs.

Strategic Synergies

  • Monkey Village: Primary/Magic Training is critical for maximizing attack speed and range.
  • Support Units: Pairing with Monkey Sub on water maps creates a powerful defensive foundation for early game.
  • Economic Foundation: Used correctly, its mid-game popping power allows for cost-efficient defense, freeing up cash for Banana Farm investment.

Photo credit: bloons wiki  M.O.A.B or Massive Ornary Air Blimp is a big blue blimp ( air-balloon like) which is immune to freezing and cannot be glued. This type of bloon will take 200 hit before it cracks down and reveal 4 ceramic bloons.
