M.A.D's extreme MOAB damage makes it a staple against [[Boss Bloon]]s~~, being~~ one of the most cost efficient ~~towers against Tier 2~~ Bosses~~. In particular, the ability provides exceptional bursts in damage~~. Attack speed buffs ~~(such as {{BTD6|Jungle Drums}}, {{BTD6|Stronger Stimulant}}, {{BTD6|Overclock}},~~ and {{BTD6|~~Homeland Defense~~}}) and ~~{{BTD6|Energizer}}'s reduction of the ability's cooldown maximize M.A.D's capability~~. In [[~~Freeplay~~]]~~, it's also strong, but not as dominant there as against Bosses due to its lack of synergy with Bloon debuffs (e.g. {{BTD6|Super Brittle}})~~.

M.A.D's extreme MOAB damage, particularly with its ability, makes it a staple against [[Boss Bloon]]s. It is one of the most cost-efficient choices for T2 and T3 Normal Bosses and T2 Elite. Attack speed buffs maximize its DPS; the M.A.D and {{BTD6|Ultraboost}} is a power couple dominant in Normal Bosses and [[Least Tiers]]. In Elite events, they can serve as a stepping stone towards a single [[Paragon]] solution.

Outside of Bosses and Freeplay, M.A.D is ~~generally~~ too expensive and too ~~weak to~~ Super ~~Ceramics~~ to be ~~worth it~~.

M.A.D is decent in [[Freeplay]], though it has a lack of synergy with Bloon debuffs (e.g. {{BTD6|Super Brittle}}). {{BTD6|Energizer}} can help with its ability cooldown reduction. Outside of Bosses and Freeplay, M.A.D is too expensive and too vulnerable against {{BTD6|Super Ceramic}}s to be considered.

1-5-0 is the ~~recommended crosspath~~. ~~{{BTD6|Laser Shock}}~~ gives negligible damage and 0-5-2's pierce increases are very minor, but the drastic accuracy improvement of {{BTD6|Focused Firing}} greatly improves its consistency against bosses and BADs, particularly for the ability which is otherwise far weaker beyond point blank. 0-5-0 may be necessary on Least Tiers in competitive gameplay.
