Tsar Bomba's ability is significantly more powerful than [[Ground Zero (BTD6)|Ground Zero]], standing out against BFBs, ZOMGs, and Fortified DDTs, but weaker against sustained rushes compared to multiple Ground Zeroes. It | Tsar Bomba's ability is significantly more powerful than [[Ground Zero (BTD6)|Ground Zero]], standing out against BFBs, ZOMGs, and Fortified DDTs, but weaker against sustained rushes compared to multiple Ground Zeroes. It stands out in [[Race Event]]s and CT Time Attack; its ability can almost immediately wipe out masses of BFBs as well as heavily damaged ZOMGs. In [[CHIMPS]], it remains useful when combined with low-RBE cleanups (e.g. [[Perma-Spike (BTD6)|Perma-Spike]]) and single-target damage (e.g. [[Spike Storm (BTD6)|Spike Storm]]) to account for Tsar's downtime and inconsistent bombing runs. | ||
Like Ground Zero, proper ability timing and stalling is important. For the best results, always time the ability while all but a few blimps are on screen, or with one or few healthy ZOMGs remaining on screen. The stun from the ability on surviving blimps can offer more time to stall. In the meantime, Tsar Bomba's bombing runs may be controlled to depend less on the ability. | |||
Tsar Bomba has notable synergy with [[Geraldo (BTD6)|Geraldo]] and [[Captain Churchill (BTD6)|Churchill]]. Geraldo provides [[Rejuv Potion|Rejuv Potions]] potions which allow the refresh of the strong ability. Churchill's MOAB Barrage ability can weaken ZOMGs enough to wipe out all of rounds like 98. | |||
Crosspaths are irrelevant to the ability, and its crosspaths are only bought to improve its bombing run, with 1-5-0 generally preferred. | |||
