{{BTD6 last updated|52.2|section=y}}
Spiked Balls is an expensive upgrade that lacks the pierce to justify it in the mid game, and in the late game it is less effective against {{BTD6|Super Ceramic}}s than supports of similar prices (e.g. [[Juggernaut (BTD6)|Juggernaut]], [[Icicles (BTD6)|Icicles]], and [[Bloon Impact (BTD6)|Bloon Impact]]). Spiked Balls is only serviceable as a transition to {{BTD6|Spiked Mines}}, which is the mid game carry instead.
 
3-2-0 is better on shorter maps and when covering only one lane, while 3-0-2 is more useful for defending multiple or intersecting exits.
