I think I toyed with it for a while back in the day (but not much memory of it) but also saw battles mobile got good use of this high stat tower and figured it'll work here in bmc (not many balance changes back then when isab showcased in battles mobile)

{{Strategy needed}}
On the {{flash version of|Bloons Monkey City}}, Laser Cannon is a consistent attacker with very high attack speed and pierce for the cost, with the only caveat being the need to micro to take advantage of it. On the {{Multiplat version of|Bloons Monkey City}} however, this upgrade's attack speed isn't noticeable and becomes worse the higher Monkey Knowledge the player has.

[[Powerful Darts (BMC)|Powerful Darts]] isn't necessary for the base Laser Cannon unless it transitioned from [[Faster Barrel Spin (BMC)|Faster Barrel Spin]], but [[Depleted Bloontonium (BMC)|Depleted Bloontonium]] can be useful to deal with Leads and [[DDT (BMC)|DDT]].
In both versions, it's more cost-effective to spam as many [[Faster Barrel Spin (BMC)|Faster Barrel Spin]] Dartlings instead until the tower limit is reached, then slowly upgrading these Dartlings to Laser Cannon on the flash version. It is almost never worth it to upgrade on the multiplatform version, as [[Hydra Rocket Pods (BMC)|Hydra Rocket Pods]] is usually just better.
 
[[Powerful Darts (BMC)|Powerful Darts]] isn't necessary for the base Laser Cannon, due to its already high base pierce and fast projectiles, unless it transitioned from Faster Barrel Spin. However, [[Depleted Bloontonium (BMC)|Depleted Bloontonium]] can be useful to deal with [[Lead Bloon (BMC)|Lead Bloon]]s and [[DDT (BMC)|DDT]].
