'''First Strike Capability''' is the [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Monkey Sub]]'s path 2 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. | '''First Strike Capability''' is the [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Monkey Sub]]'s path 2 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede" />This upgrade grants Monkey Sub the First Strike [[Activated Ability|ability]], which when activated launches a missile at the strongest Bloon on screen, dealing 10,000 [[damage]] to it and creating an explosion which deals 350 damage with a [[pierce]] of 80 and blast radius of 65. The first strike missile can damage all Bloon types and can see [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloons]] even if the Monkey Sub cannot. Since the explosion also damages its main target, the main target takes a total of 10,350 damage from First Strike. This ability has a cooldown of 60 seconds and an initial cooldown of 20 seconds.<section end="lede" /> | ||

First Strike Capability's ability does incredible single-target damage for a long cooldown. It stands out in [[CHIMPS]] due to its ability being able to completely one-shot a highly-damaged Round 100 {{BTD6|BAD}}. Purchase it during Round 99 to get the ability off cooldown, especially when using it on medium-to-long maps for two ability usages. In Boss Events, First Strike is a strong choice for instakills against [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]], instakills against [[Vortex (BTD6)|Vortex]], and breaking the Primary layer of {{BTD6|Dreadbloon}} in Timed Bosses, but it faces competition from {{BTD6|Spike Storm}} for the latter. First Strike is serviceable at one-shotting single ZOMGs, but its long cooldown prevents it from eliminating all ZOMGs in later rounds. | |||
Unlike other single-target specialists, such as [[Spike Storm (BTD6)|Spike Storm]] and [[MOAB Eliminator (BTD6)|MOAB Eliminator]], First Strike requires water placement and is not dependent on synergies to maximize its single-target damage, though it does appreciate from water cooldown reductions via [[Bloontonium Reactor (BTD6)|Bloontonium Reactor]] or [[Energizer (BTD6)|Energizer]]. Using Bloontonium Reactor also allows double ability usage against Round 100 on shorter maps, such as [[Quad]]. | |||
Crosspathing doesn't affect the First Strike's ability, so a crosspath is often unnecessary unless progressing to its T5 or from the T3. As First Strike lacks any improvements to its main attack, simply crosspath First Strike based on [[Ballistic Missile (BTD6)|Ballistic Missile]]. | |||

*The appearance of the monkey piloting the submarine is a reference to the character Marko Ramius in the 1990 American submarine spy thriller film [[wp:The Hunt for Red October (film)|The Hunt for Red October]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZDKh9pHNug Ninja Kiwi Insider Session #1: Art Director Mike!]</ref> | |||
*Its capability to one-shot a heavily damaged {{BTD6|BAD}} is featured in the Quest [[Striken BAD]]. | |||
