Hotkeys
I know this is a mobile port and it is not suppose to have hotkey but can you update the game for PC that it does have hotkeys just like on old browser BTD Battles version....it would make it much easier since we on PC unlike smartphones have a big fat juicy keyboard lying in front of us for such thing :D

1,2,3,4 for towers
5 for spikes
< and > for upgrades
Backspace to sell
Tab to change target
Shift+click to place multiple
I wish we could customize our own hotkeys :(

I agree.

There are important things to do:
1) Allow players to customize their own hotkeys.
2) Hotkeys for bloons! It's ridiculously annoying to keep clicking to send bloons.
3) Faster gameplay. Playing on PC, the game is pretty slow: animation, buy/sell/upgrade towers, tower placement, etc..
4) I assume we must play over 1000 games to unlock all tower + tiers, right? I think I don't need to point out the obvious problem here.

But overall, it's a fun game.

You should be able to unlock all the towers and tiers a lot quicker than that if you play in battle arenas. I was able to unlock everything in about 40-50 games, ya just got to find a strategy that works well for you.

So, there is a way to gain more points... I assumed 10 points for every win playing Arenas. So what is the strategy here, if you don't mind to tell. Thanks

Im going to explain you everything:

For every match you get around 10 Battlescore. But that is not the hardest part to unlock the towers. Getting battlescore is actually really quick, you will see. The real challenge is to get medallions to buy the towers. In battle arenas you can bet your medallions to win more.

There are two main ways to play the game:

Banana farm's economy (see a tutorial on youtube, I usually use dart monkeys banana farms and supermonkey, but the meta is ace/bloon chipper for the last tower). Dart monkeys are really good with the 0-3 upgrades in early game. Then at round 10 come LED'S and you need a led popping tower... 5-0 dart monkey will do that for you. Just place him in a straight line and choose aiming option to Last. If you ever get rushed you just sell your banana farms quickly and buy a super monkey fan club which when activated transforms all dart monkeys into super monkeys for a period of time and you can easily defend that rush. Then you sell the super monkey fan club tower for 7k and do a counter rush and gg :D

The other way to play the game is too do bloon economy. For each bloon that you send you get x amount of increased money per time (I think 8seconds). Your starting money per time is 250. By round 8 you should have 450 economy, by round 18 600-700 and then the sky is the limit :)

Another strategy is to use Dart Monkey, Farm and Lead Popping Tower as Third (I use Wizard) Start the game by placing a farm, then do a 0-3 monkey. Depending on if they send bloons that pose a threat, build more 0-3 monkeys or get more 2-0 farms. You only need 2-3 farms. Buy a normal wizard at round 9 and set it to strong. Now just save money until round 12. On round 12, sell all your farms after about 5 seconds. Then, get ready to send Rainbow Regens on round 13. I have never lost using this strategy.

I personally like normal zebras better because you can get 10x more bloons sent

If SB can defend a rush like that (I can) Then youre done. I will just rush you back and you will have no money left. 1v1???
