Version 6.4's further Gold cost reduction to Parting Gift aims to make it more viable in the early-game, and although it was indirectly buffed by the addition of cheap high ATK Monkeys such as [[Bomb Shooter (BCS)|Bomb Shooter]] and [[Night Vision Sniper]], and having more variety of high ATK options including the buffed [[Sniper Monkey (BCS)|Sniper Monkey]], the lower cost of Parting Gift makes combos easier to perform in early rounds.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5RCsiqq--s|title=6.4 Tester Commentary - Bloons Card Storm|publisher=YouTube|author=OdysseyTOS}}</ref> | |||
