Alchemist Monkey (BCS)

Line 30:

*The Acid Pools lingering for at minimum two turns means this monkey effectively has up to 85 damage with each attack. This makes it a powerful early game monkey, making it easy to use in decks that prefer to spend Gold on cycling cards over defense, such as [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] OTK decks. The Alchemist has 42.5 damage per turn, making it the second strongest DPT possible for 2 Gold, with its benefits over [[Dart Monkey Twins]] being the lingering effect of Acid Pools, and only taking one monkey space.

*The lingering effect of the Acid Pools also makes it strong against OTK, burn and aggro, as the 30 damage from the Acid Pools (if placed in the frontmost spot of the track) will hurt the leaking Bloon. This is one of the few ways to make leaking Bloon take damage, even if the opponent has cards like [[Return to Sender|Return To Sender]] or [[Ability Ban]]. It can also be helpful against [[Setup Bloon]], popping it and not allowing its ability to trigger.
