* '''MOAB Press''': Inspired by the [[MOAB Press (BTD6)|upgrade of the same name]], the Paragon can also launch a special glaive towards MOAB-Class Bloons which stops in place after reaching its target and pushes blimps backwards before exploding, dealing high damage and applying a damage-over-time effect.

Functionally, it's more similar to MOAB Domination.
 
Glaive Dominus gains an [[Activated Ability]] called '''Overcharge''', granting a significant [[attack speed]] boost that reduces over time, resembling [[Turbo Charge (BTD6)|Turbo Charge]]. This Paragon also applies a buff to all [[Primary]] towers on screen including other Paragons, increasing their attack speed by about 11.11%.


Glaive Dominus will obtain an activated ability called '''Overcharge''' which resembles [[Turbo Charge (BTD6)|Turbo Charge]] because it grants a significant [[attack speed]] boost, which is reduced over time. This Paragon also applies a buff to all [[Primary]] towers on screen including other Paragons, increasing their attack speed by about 11.11%.

===MOAB Press===
Glaive Dominus throws a light-orange glaive at a MOAB-class Bloon, damaging and applying [[pushback]] to them, stopping suddenly before creating an explosion that burns Bloons. The glaive<!--the proj only targets blimps, as does the press glaive attack--> only targets MOAB-class Bloons, dealing damage and applies 1 unit of pushback (50% to BFBs, 25% to ZOMGs and DDT) to those affected, and can rehit every 0.1 seconds. Its explosion damages all Bloon types and does extra damage to Bosses, with 50 radius, plus a DoT that damages every 1 second for 4 seconds to any Bloon type<!--this includes Blastapopoulos--> and visually applies a burning effect. The attack has 100 range and ignores obstacles, while the glaive has high pierce and 15 radius.

This activated ability increases the attack speed of all Glavie Dominus attacks for 30s. Upon activation it will grant itself 10 stacks of an "Overcharge" buff, shown by the ability's icon while the tower is selected. Each stack applies a 0.9× attack cooldown multiplier and the Paragon will lose one stack every 3 seconds, reducing the bonus from a maximum of +187% until completely disappearing after 30 seconds. This ability has a cooldown of 45 seconds at Degree 1 and cannot be activated if it still has charges remaining.

As Glaive Dominus is among the cheapest Paragons and is mainly used against elite tier 3 or 4 [[Boss Bloon Event|Bosses]]. Compared to the other primary Paragons, it is the third most expensive, but makes up for its knockback and decent damage, and lack of map dependance. It's suitable for maps that can cover a lot of range.
As Glaive Dominus is among the cheapest Paragons and is mainly used against elite Tier 3 or 4 [[Boss Bloon Event|Bosses]]. Compared to the other Primary Paragons, it is the second most expensive, but makes up for its knockback and decent damage, and lack of map dependance. It's suitable for maps that can cover a lot of range. Overcharge provides a significant burst of DPS and knockback.


Due to its low (relative) damage and high knockback, this Paragon is mostly relegated to stopping Bloons from leaking in advanced freeplay setups. If this Paragon is being used as a primary DPS in a challenge run, it may be useful to cycle the targeting priorities to apply DOT to multiple Bloons at once.
Due to its relatively low damage but high knockback, this Paragon in Freeplay setups is mainly used for its knockback. If used for main DPS, it may be useful to cycle the targeting priorities to apply DoT to multiple Bloons at once.


Glaive Dominus is useful against [[Boss Bloon]]s that spawn children bloons, such as [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]] and [[Lych (BTD6)|Lych]] due to its ricocheting Glaives. It is not particularly weak against certain Bosses, since it has no abilities and has innate camo detection for all its attacks.
Its main specialty is its effectiveness against [[Boss Bloon]]s that spawn children bloons, such as [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]] and [[Lych (BTD6)|Lych]]. It is not particularly weak against certain Bosses, since it has innate camo detection for all its attacks, but avoid using Overcharge against Lych. [[Blastapopoulos (BTD6)|Blastapopoulos]] is one of its least effective matchups, since this Boss can lower uptime of its Overcharge.


Maximizing degrees is helpful for Glaive Dominus to improve consistency of its knockback and for surpassing 20-degree thresholds for further Boss damage. However, the makeshift Glaive Dominus is typically the go-to in Boss Events, with degrees typically maximized by tier counts alone and only just enough cash slider for Degree 40. If wanting to maximize pops, have its Tier 5's (or two of three if wanting the Paragon at the middle) and [[Turbo Charge (BTD6)|Turbo Charge]]s near the front of the map. For cheapest T2 and T3 crosspaths for the most tiers, use 0-2-2 and 3-0-2, the cheapest Tier 4 for the most tiers is 4-0-2 [[M.O.A.R Glaives (BTD6)|M.O.A.R Glaives]], and for the most expensive use 2-4-0 Turbo Charges.
Maximizing degrees assists consistency of its knockback, surpassing the 20-degree thresholds for further Boss damage, and improving uptime of Overcharge. Its degrees are typically maximized by tier counts alone and only just enough cash slider for Degree 40, but for full ability uptime at least Degree 51 is needed (though timing is still necessary due to the inability to re-activate while it has charges).<!--45/30=0.666... and d51 on table = 66.6667%--> If wanting to maximize pops, have its Tier 5's (or two of three if wanting the Paragon at the middle) and [[Turbo Charge (BTD6)|Turbo Charge]]s near the front of the map. For cheapest T2 and T3 crosspaths for the most tiers, use 0-2-2 and 3-0-2, the cheapest Tier 4 for the most tiers is 4-0-2 [[M.O.A.R Glaives (BTD6)|M.O.A.R Glaives]], and for the most expensive use 2-4-0 Turbo Charges.
