It is not a super efficient income generator without [[DJ Benjammin' (Battles 2)|DJ Benjammin']]'s Side Hustle, but has the lowest footprint out of all of the alt eco abilities, and picking Sniper gives an advantage of supplementary single-target damage and supports from the other paths. However, Supply Drop does weak damage that also anti-stalls, which makes it less desirable than other alt eco abilities, especially [[Support Chinook (Battles 2)|Support Chinook]]. Having Supply Drop also enables [[Cripple MOAB (Battles 2)|Cripple MOAB]] to be used in a loadout. Buy Supply Drop early to snowball later on; its cost-efficiency versus normal eco is not bad and has selling power.

It is an efficient ~~money~~ generator, ~~however its~~ weak damage that also anti-stalls makes it less desirable than other alt eco abilities, especially [[Support Chinook (Battles 2)|Support Chinook]]. ~~Using~~ Supply Drop also enables [[Cripple MOAB (Battles 2)|Cripple MOAB]] to be used.

It is recommended to use 0-4-2, as the damage bonus from 2-4-0 is usually not enough to be worth losing out the income bonuses of Path 3. Other defenses are usually better at defending rushes, particularly dense rushes, though a single 2-4-0 can be used to supplement against round 13-16 type rushes.

One Supply Drop is worth 240 eco with x-4-0, increased to roughly 266.7 with 0-4-1 and exactly 300 with 0-4-2. Supply Drop Sniper is much less efficient than Pinks and a bit more valuable than Zebras with 0-4-2 crosspath, but comes with selling power in case of needing to afford more defenses, or to substitute eco when eco becomes depleted by sending high strength rushes.
