Spike Storm is a powerful burst damage to MOAB-class, especially with [[Monkey Knowledge (BMC)|Monkey Knowledge]], being one of the best ways to deal a lot of MOAB-class damage. In [[Contested Territory (BMC)|Contested Territory]], it is one of the many towers that should be placed and supported by buffs. | |||
In the multiplatform version, its capability to hit targets immediately from the spawn location makes it one of the most efficient ways of damaging [[Boss Bloon]]s if it can be afforded. Sell-and-rebuy strategies give the fastest burst of damage and give enough money to sustain it. Once the Boss is out of range of the Boss's hitbox, use a spam Spike Storm strategy supported by 4-1 [[Energy Beacon (BMC)|Energy Beacon]]s plus one Spike Storm that is continuously bought and sold again for the ability, preferrably inside the Boss's hitbox as soon as it's possible again. | |||
In the Flash version, while its role remains the same in dealing big damage to MOABs and Bosses, it does not focus spikes nearby it, resulting in a tower that is less effective when bought and resold. Especially with high Monkey Knowledge and Energy Beacon, it is often not worth it to sell and rebuy as the cooldown is fast enough to leave it alone and let it cool down. | |||
Always crosspath with at least [[Bigger Stacks (BMC)|Bigger Stacks]], as this substantial pierce bonus affects the ability as well. [[White Hot Spikes (BMC)|White Hot Spikes]] can be added to pop [[DDT (BMC)|DDT]]s in the Flash version, affect [[Dreadbloon (BMC)|Dreadbloon]], or ensure [[Lead Bloon (BMC)|Lead Bloon]]s and Frozen Bloons (with Ice-centric strategies)<!--e.g. glueicespac monkeyteams--> don't block its spikes. | |||
