*The extra Gold gained per hit can discourage an opponent from feeding Gold to the player, especially if the opponent is human and suspects an aggressive early-game.<!--not for aggro, just "aggressive"--> It's a weak option for many archetypes, provided the opponent knows to avoid hitting it during early-game, and is a bad draw for late-game.
*Gold Bloon’s extra gold gained per hit can discourage an opponent from feeding Gold to the player.<!--not for aggro, just "aggressive"--> It's a decent option for Aggro, forcing the opponent to hit it and make it either cheaper for free, or have it leak to deal a solid amount of damage.
**It's not suitable for pure aggro, which prefers spending the 4 Gold early on for either a single strong 4-Gold Bloon (e.g. [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]]), two [[Green Bloon (BCS)|Green Bloon]]s, or several [[Swarm Blue Bloon]]s, the Golden Bloon itself is a weak Bloon, and human players running Monkey swarms will likely avoid attacking them.
**Players with bigger collections may abandon Golden Bloon in Aggro due to better options being available. Despite that, for budget strategies, Golden Bloon can work in Aggro.
*The Golden Bloon itself is a weak threat, equal to a +10 Health [[Blue Bloon (BCS)|Blue Bloon]] that costs 1 Gold more, or a [[Swarm Green Bloon]] with 2 delay and 5 less Health.
*The Golden Bloon itself is a weak threat, equal to a +10 Health [[Blue Bloon (BCS)|Blue Bloon]] that costs 1 Gold more, or a [[Swarm Green Bloon]] with 2 delay and 5 less Health. The benefit of it comes from attacking it at least once, where it becomes stronger than a [[Blue Bloon (BCS)|Blue Bloon]] for the same cost.
*Mortars have no control over attacking a Bloon at the end of a turn. If only Golden Bloons are on screen, you can force the opponent to give you more Gold. Defenders that have not spent ammo on other Bloons are also affected, but easier to avoid.

*Against [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]], his Perceptive Shot passive will activate the On Damaged effect. When played this way, it essentially costs 1 Gold plus the same amount of Bloontonium.

*Tank Golden Bloons, or delay attacking them, but only if you know the opponent won't be able to afford anything that would save themselves.
*Try to pop or get Golden Bloons weak while hitting it as few times as possible. [[Bomb Shooter (BCS)|Bomb Shooter]] and [[Sniper Monkey (BCS)|Sniper Monkey]] are good counters to Golden Bloon.
*Attacks that deal at least the Gold Bloon's health will ensure that the sender will only get 1 Gold, no more.
*Powerful cards like [[Firestorm]] or [[Storm Of Arrows|Storm of Arrows]] can be used to pop Golden Bloons for cheap.
**For board clears, [[Firestorm]] one-shots Golden Bloons if not playing on Dark Castle.
*[[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] and [[Gwendolin (BCS)|Gwendolin]] can use their abilities to damage their own Golden Bloons and get extra Gold, although doing this is highly impractical.
**[[Bomb Shooter (BCS)|Bomb Shooter]] and [[Sniper Monkey (BCS)|Sniper Monkey]] one-shots Golden Bloons.
*[[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] and [[Gwendolin (BCS)|Gwendolin]] can use their abilities to damage their own Golden Bloons and get extra Gold.
