*The One Monkey Army artifact is risky but can be very powerful if using a DPS-focused Hero, such as [[Captain Churchill (BTD6)|Captain Churchill]], or at least a Hero with adequate range. As the Hero counts for all categories, the Hero synergizes with plenty of Artifacts that involve tower categories. Examples include raw stat increases from Inspiration, Quickening, or Precision, [[Primary Specialist|Primary]] / [[Support Specialist]] Artifacts, [[Critical Success]] for Crit chances and [[Pure Damage]] to handle high health targets during the later stages of a campaign.

*The Heroes that benefit the most from this Artifact include Churchill, [[Striker Jones (BTD6)|Striker Jones]], and [[Adora (BTD6)|Adora]]; it's only useless on [[Benjamin (BTD6)|Benjamin]], who has no direct attack. Caution is advised with [[Psi (BTD6)|Psi]] or [[Silas (BTD6)|Silas]], since they can struggle with the early MOAB-Class Bloons if not leveled fast enough and neither have a way to do practical damage to [[BAD (BTD6)|BAD]]s or [[Boss Bloon|Boss Bloons]].

*It is recommended to have a reserve of hearts in the case the player encounters unfavorable maps such as [[Dark Dungeons]], so these tiles are skipped if necessary. Certain supports that may seem to work will not work, as they may rely on the Bloon taking damage to apply the effect. However, towers like [[Glue Gunner (BTD6)|Glue Gunners]], Top Path [[Alchemist (BTD6)|Alchemists]], [[Overclock (BTD6)|Overclock]], [[Deadeye]], and [[Monkey Village (BTD6)|Monkey Villages]] are always great support options.

Since OMA removes damage types and lowers base damage to 0, many supporting towers do not function properly without working around them.
