Overdrive is a very strong tower against blimps and [[Boss Bloon]]s (except {{B|Vortex|BTD6}}), in addition to doing good Bloon damage during the mid-game. It functions the best when placed near a loop, especially when placed directly under a section of the track, where its deadzone (spot above its placement where all tacks hit) is directly on the track and deals very high damage.

Overdrive's 1 damage and 2 pierce tacks necessitate towers such as {{B|Berserker Brew|BTD6}}, {{B|Embrittlement|BTD6}}, and {{B|Primary Training|BTD6}} to maximize its power, in addition to {{B|Geraldo|BTD6}}'s [[Sharpening Stone]] and [[Jar of Pickles]]. Against Boss Bloons, {{B|Glue Strike|BTD6}}, {{B|Super Brittle|BTD6}}, and {{B|Cripple MOAB|BTD6}} aid greatly as well. 2-0-4 is the optimal crosspath, allowing it to fill its role as a blimp-damaging tower better and work much better with pierce buffs.

==Trivia==
*Its upgrade icon only depicts 8 tacks, half of which it actually shoots in one volley.
*Both Overdrive and {{BTD6|The Tack Zone}}'s attack cooldowns were reduced by 50% in {{BTD6 version|12.0}}, making the buffed Overdrive shoot faster than the pre-buffed Tack Zone.
