'''Ground Zero''' is the [[Monkey Ace (BTD6)|Monkey Ace]]'s path 2 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Monkey Ace the Ground Zero ability, which when activated drops a bomb on the screen which deals 700 [[damage]] and has 2,000 [[pierce]]. This bomb has a full-screen blast radius, and can damage all Bloon types. This ability has a [[Ability Cooldown|cooldown]] of 35 seconds and an initial cooldown of ~11.67 seconds.

It grants Monkey Ace the Ground Zero ability, which when activated drops a bomb on the screen which deals 700 [[damage]] and has 2,000 [[pierce]]. This bomb has a full-screen blast radius, and can damage all Bloon types, affecting up to 2000 Bloons nearest the landing pad. This ability has a [[Ability Cooldown|cooldown]] of 35 seconds and an initial cooldown of ~11.67 seconds. Once dropped, it has a delay of about 0.7s.

This upgrade also increases the damage of Monkey Ace's [[Bomber Ace (BTD6)|bombs]] from 3 to 15, and increases their pierce from 20 to 40.

This upgrade also increases the damage of Monkey Ace's [[Bomber Ace (BTD6)|bombs]] from 3 to 15, and increases their pierce from 20 to 40. Double damage to Camos via [[Spy Plane (BTD6)|Spy Plane]] is inherited and affects both the bomb salvos and the ability bomb.

Ground Zero's ability is a powerful way to destroy huge amounts of bloons anywhere on screen. In [[Race Event]]s and CT Time Attack, it stands out for clearing the majority of waves; buy it quickly in advance to cool off the ability, send many rounds, and activate the ability as soon as possible. For [[CHIMPS]], it is best used to wipe out difficult low-HP swarms, such as DDTs, MOABs, and Super Ceramics. Its cooldown is somewhat long, so use the ability sparingly. Versus Fortified DDTs, ensure no decamos are present, allowing one ability to wipe out all Fortified DDTs on round 99.

The basic improved bombing run does a lot of damage, which can severely weaken mid-game Ceramics in one shot, but requires heavy micromanagement to fully optimize this attack. Without micromanagement, it's quite inconsistent and still has a major Black Bloon weakness. As the ability is unaffected by crosspaths, 1-4-0 is the preferred crosspath, with 2-4-0 optional for extra darts only, and 0-4-2 may assist heavy micro of its bombs.
