'''Standoff''' is the [[Desperado (BTD6)|Desperado]]'s path 1 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases the Desperado's [[attack speed]] by 60%~~, but reduces it by 15% per~~ [[Bloon]] within [[range]] (to a minimum of 0% extra attack speed with 4+ Bloons in range)~~. It does not count [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloon]]s within range unless it has [[Camo detection]]~~.

'''Standoff''' is the [[Desperado (BTD6)|Desperado]]'s path 1 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede"/>This upgrade increases the Desperado's [[attack speed]] by 60% if only one [[Bloon]] is within [[range]], but reduces it by 10% per extra Bloon (to a minimum of 0% extra attack speed with 7+ Bloons in range).

~~Since~~ it ~~has to~~ have ~~at least one targetable Bloon~~ within range ~~to attack~~, the attack ~~speed modifier is effectively always reduced while it~~ is ~~attacking~~, ~~though if no~~ Bloons ~~are in range after it attacks~~, it does ~~apply~~ the ~~full modifier while it reloads~~.

This upgrade does not count Bloons the Desperado cannot target (e.g. Bloons behind [[line of sight]] blockers or [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloon]]s when it does not have [[Camo detection]]) when determining the number of Bloons within range. If [[crosspath]]ed with [[Deadeye]] or [[Enforcer]], this upgrade only counts Bloons within range of the attack the Desperado is currently using, and Deadeye's rifle does not count Bloons within its deadzone. Crosspathing with [[Bounty Hunter]] and [[Golden Justice]] also applies this while using Marked to Pop, but does not affect the attack speed of the passive marking attack.<section end="lede"/>

==Strategy==

Standoff is preferred for path 2 Desperados, complementing their long range and single-target damage. Path 3 Desperados receive improved single-target damage and knockback, but trades off [[Camo detection]] and [[crit]]s.

*A standoff in the context of the [[wp:Western genre|Western genre]] is a situation where two opponents face off in a [[wp:fast draw|fast draw]] duel. This may explain why Desperado's speed bonus decreases as more Bloons are present in its radius.
