Strategy

[edit | edit source]
This section was last updated for: version 52.2

Ninja Discipline's increased attack speed is beneficial for improving DPS, particularly as a crosspath; it's worthwhile for lower-tiers, and excellent for all of the third path. It's a decent transition to Sharp Shurikens, further improving its early-game. Shinobi Tactics and above tend to get more DPS by extending Shinobi buff coverage instead of buying Ninja Discipline on all of them. Caltrops and above usually prefer Ninja Discipline to compensate the slow attack speed of its additional attacks.

  • Nerf "[S]hould no longer be able to occasionally shoot with an infinite range in specific setups" (bug fix)
As ninja is the ‘Camo Specialist’ and has been since inception, it is the only tower that will unlock Camo Prioritization on the base tower.
— Update notes
  • Buff Camo Prioritization filter added
We’re mindful that this has been in place since launch, but still think this change could lead to more balanced crosspath Ninja play for casual and for apex players. Ninja's 1xx feels like it does too much, granting both range and attack speed to all crosspaths, so these benefits are now being split apart.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Range decreased ― 47 units → 40 units
    • Neutral Seeking Shuriken crosspath is unchanged
While a great early game option, Ninja generally struggles with dominant crosspathing choices and also has relatively poor base tower value. Without going into every single change, T3s onward remain relatively unchanged with a lot of prices below T3 being moved around from less favorable crosspaths into better/higher tier upgrades.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Upgrade cost increased ― $300 → $350
    • Buff Overall cost reduced by $50 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Nerf All attacks: Attack cooldown multiplier reduced ― 38% → 30%
    • Note: Attack speed bonus reduced from +61.29% to +42.85%
1-0-2, 1-0-3, 1-0-4, 1-0-5
  • Nerf Caltrops: Attack cooldown increased ― 2.728s → 2.73s
1-0-4, 1-0-5
  • Nerf Sticky Bomb: Attack cooldown increased ― 3.1s → 3.15s
1-0-5
  • Buff Sticky bomb attack cooldown decreased ― 3.15s → 1.575s
1-2-0, 1-3-0, 1-4-0, 1-5-0
  • Buff Now deals +2 damage to Camo Bloons (undocumented)
    • Note: The effect of Counter-Espionage to remove camo gets priority over this bonus, so it doesn't get applied to regular Bloons, however it will work against Phayze while Radar Jam is active.
