'''MOAB SHREDR''' is the [[Spike Factory (BTD6)|Spike Factory]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases the [[damage]] the Spike Factory's spikes deal to [[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s by +7, for a total of 40 damage per pile (48 with {{BTD6 mk|One More Spike}}) and 80 damage when [[crosspath]]ed with [[Bigger Stacks (BTD6)|Bigger Stacks]] (88 with {{BTD6 mk|One More Spike}}).

MOAB SHREDR is a niche upgrade that is primarily used against a single blimp. Because it falls apart against non-blimps, MOAB SHREDR should be placed near the front or around areas where only blimps can hit the spikes. It's not as versatile as [[Spike Storm (BTD6)|Spike Storm]], however it remains strong for specifically breaking [[MOAB (BTD6)|MOAB]] layers in a focused area, letting other towers clear the insides, particularly for [[Bloon Trap (BTD6)|Bloon Trap]].
MOAB SHREDR changes the tower's focus from a cleanup tower at the end of the track to a blimp damage tower best positioned near the front. It deals huge single target damage to blimps, but is very weak against Ceramics and high density. It is most often used to snipe blimp layers during mid-game, using the 0-3-2 crosspath with Set Target targeting to position spike piles off the track where they can only hit blimp layers. This lets {{BTD6|Bloon Trap}} collect Ceramics inside blimps without damaging normal Bloons and it helps towers that struggle against blimps in mid-game. It is also especially strong in [[Boss Rush]], as each layer pop reactivates the Smart Spikes buff and targeting damage onto the Boss is more important than extra pierce. Here, MOAB SHREDR stands behind Tack Shooters as the second-most cost efficient damage source in the mode.


For crosspaths, 0-3-2 crosspath stands out for [[Boss Rush]], as its start-of-round benefit keeps it attacking at its maximum rate every time the boss is killed, and also allows repositioning off the track so the spikes only hit blimps or the Boss. This crosspath is also superior in timed ranked [[Boss Bloon Event|Boss Events]] where combined with [[Homeland Defense (BTD6)|Homeland Defense]] and damage debuffs such as [[Cripple MOAB (BTD6)|Cripple MOAB]] allows an army of MOAB SHREDRs to instakill most bosses. 1-3-0 remains decent for overall single-target damage, while 2-3-0 gets overrun on most DDT rounds.
Late game, MOAB SHREDR is generally outperformed by {{BTD6|Spike Storm}}'s burst damage or {{BTD6|Long Life Spikes}} supported by stalling and blimp debuffs. It still performs well against DDT and BAD layers when Alch buffed; however, a 3-0-1 {{BTD6|Berserker Brew}} more than doubles 0-3-2's damage output and lets it hit DDTs. Since DDTs have large hitboxes, spikes can also be positioned to hit DDTs but not MOABs, but this is difficult, and the tower is still not enough to solo DDT rounds past r90.
 
In timed ranked [[Boss Bloon Event (BTD6)|Boss Events]], MOAB SHREDR can be spammed in combination with debuffs such as {{BTD6|Cripple MOAB}} and {{BTD6|Super Brittle}} to aim for an instakill. 0-3-2 is still superior in this context, as only one spike per pile can be used per frame.
 
1-3-0 does more average damage over longer rounds in late game, but the lack of grouped damage makes it very cost-inefficient in this role, so 0-3-2 is generally preferred for its utility.
