'''Razor Rotors''' is the [[Heli Pilot (BTD6)|Heli Pilot]]'s path 1 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Heli Pilot a new razor rotor attack, which has the {{BTD6 dt|Normal}} damage type. This attack is a damage aura with a radius of 35 [[Unit|units]] around the Heli Pilot. It deals 2 [[damage]], has 10 [[pierce]], and has an [[attack cooldown]] of 0.45 seconds (0.3 seconds with {{BTD6 mk|Rapid Razors}}). Exclusive to this upgrade, the Pursuit targeting option causes this Heli to move closer to the Bloons so it can take advantage of the rotors.

~~{{Strategy needed|More use cases of rotors}}~~

Razor Rotors partially carries early midgame on a variety of non-simultaneous lane maps, cleaning up small amounts of bloons quickly and popping all visible Bloon types. Razor Rotors can fly anywhere on screen, having little trouble on maps with range issues. However, it does still struggle against dense groups of Bloons, and falls off hard on any simultaneous lane map. While Pursuit targeting is not optimal, switching it to Pursuit makes it easy to use, and the modified Patrol Points option lets the Pursuit mode focus one lane at a time.

Razor Rotors can fly anywhere on screen, having little trouble on maps with range issues. However, it does still struggle against dense groups of Bloons, and falls off hard on any simultaneous lane map, and ~~offers only pure damage with no utility~~.

On Contested Territory, Razor Rotors especially stands out for its reliable popping of all non-Camo types, and Camos with 3-2-0. Thus, Razor Rotors stands out the most on Least Tiers tiles when given support against R43+ Ceramics and R50+ MOABs. On Least Cash, Razor Rotors is an easy choice compared to combinations of cheap T1-T3 towers. It also transitions decently into [[Apache Dartship (BTD6)|Apache Dartship]], to carry further into the midgame.

In general, 3-0-2 is better for the improved DPS, but 3-2-0 provides innate camo detection and may less struggle on distant alternating maps such as [[Chutes]].
