DDT?

[HEX: ETHEREAL LOVE]

Hi guys! What's the best hero to deal with DDTs? Or what's your strategies?

I dont usually plan for ddts. I just usually have a good enough amount of towers that i dont need to do much to deal with them when 90 comes.

WIth water, 0-5-0 sub. Pre-Emptive Strike 1KOs DDTs, Pre-Emptive Strike + Subcommander (0-0-5 sub) kills fortified subs. First Strike (0-4-0) is also perfect against the BAD.

Without water, 2-3-0 village + lots of heavy DPS tower or DPS + stalls like 0-0-5 Ice Monkey. DDTs have camo, lead and black properties so 2-3 village lets all monkeys in radius hit camo, destroy all types of bloons and attack faster. DDTs are fast so something like 0-0-5 Ice Monkey slows them down so the rest of your towers can burn them down. Or if you have enough DPS, just burn them down.

I'm fond of x4x Glue for DDTs, since his ability temporarily removes DDT Lead quality and causes them to take 2 extra damage from each projectile. 4xx Ice is great too since it removes Camo as well as Lead (for a bit), but only gives +1 damage (5xx Ice is +4 damage, but pretty expensive).

x3x Village is fine too.

I like the 5-2-0 bomb shooter, but it needs a village or etienne for camo detection
this bomb shooter can fully stun lock all ddts, well actually it stun locks everything except for BADs and bosses
the lower path mermaid is also amazing against ddts, especially when paired with any damage-over-time effects (like glue, fire, bleed)

but since you were asking for heroes... I dont think many heroes do much against ddts tbh
etienne allows all towers on the map to see camo, so any of your regular lead popping towers become a DDT defense
high level Sauda can bleed the DDTs, Ezili can attach her spirit stuff to DDTs but neither is enough to destroy them i think

Instead of buying specific Hero or towers, understanding what you really need is important. So you can always adapt yourself. Maybe you already have solid MOAB damage, but zero solution to Super Ceramics cleanup.

Usually Bloon Sabotage, Jungle Drum, and MIB are common answer.s But things such as dealing with fortified MOABs on R95, could be a much bigger threat than DDT.

You may find a lot of Black Border guides showcasing commonly used towers, but if you actually want to learn, try follow creator such as ChomChom.

Hope these help!

My main strategy around round 90 implies x-4-x Mage and 2-4-0 Dartling. And depending of the map, I use too a 2-3-0 Village, that allows every monkey damage every kind of bloon.

[Fused Zamasu]

x5x or 2-0-4 bomb shooter as well as an 4-0-1 ninja and/or a 2-0-5 wizerd boosted by an x2x village and a 4-2-0 alch seems to do the trick for me

[PichuYang]

I will give a better example rather than just buying R90 solution.... Let's say I wanted to use 0-4-2 Wizard as early-mid game carry instead.

I choose Sulfur Spring and only use the middle lake water and edge as example.
I can get:
- Twin Gun Sub as opener
- Gwen as main Hero that buffs Fire Wizard, but also gives fire attack to other towers
- 4-0-1 Sub as cleanup + decamo,
- 0-4-2 Wizard as main DPS, for early-mid game

During the period to round 80, I have 3 main issues:
- MOAB (Use a single MOAB Assassin)
- Rushes (Use Maelstorm)
- Lack of buffs (Abyssal Warrior for pierce buffs, 3-0-0 Alchemist for Phoenix)

Those towers are not randomly bought. They do something to Super Ceramics, DDT, and buffed MOABs. Embrittlement and Glue Storm are great addition to ability heavy based setup that features lot of projectile.

With this I can get basically any tier 5, but Super Maelstorm is enough to carry the game because the map has loop, and Gwen can consistently trigger Heat It Up at right spot.

So understanding what you really need is better than buying "best" towers. There are many other options you can try.

I think the best heros would be sauda, adora, churchill, drone boi. I can't say I've really tested specifically which hero is best, given how much better it is to use other towers.

[Michael Daemon]

0-4-2 ace monkey is a good "oh ♥♥♥♥" button just in case, always keep a couple in the corner of the map.

[76561199007339512]

If you want to pick a hero for round 90 it follows that the greedy heroes are among the best picks. I think that's Benjamin, Geraldo, and anyone that can carry greedy early farming (Sauda would be my pick for that).

Then it's just a matter of cashing out your investments to buy enough versatile dakka. If all else fails MIB makes all dakka versatile, but there are towers that don't require it that can be sufficient for a while.

Bottom path glue gunner thats why i love glue gunner

[Johnny]

Sorry, super late, but a 2-0-5 Ice and Lv. 13 Sauda utterly eviscerates DDTs. For added protection, a 5-2-0 Village and 0-2-5 Glue will guarantee nothing will get by!

[HEX: ETHEREAL LOVE]

Thank you guys! :) It seems like the glue guy is the best for it.
