Amelia has no self-defense, but compensates by shielding Bloons, decreasing cost of Powers, and removing Monkeys at will. Thus, she is an excellent option for combo decks, provided other Monkeys can defend long enough for her to finish off the opponent. Most of her hero-exclusive cards are helpful, but not required to take full advantage of herself. | Amelia has no self-defense, but compensates by shielding Bloons, decreasing cost of Powers, and removing Monkeys at will.

Burn Amelia is one of her best strategies. Using Amelia’s Act of Power allows her to get powerful burn damage such as [[Double Yellow Bloon|Double Yellow]] + [[Quick Ready]] or [[MOAB Strike]] for a cheaper price than any other hero, and attacking the opponent with low delay Bloons can also be made easier by using Grand Disappearance to remove Defenders or other important Monkeys that the enemy has. This notably has a good matchup versus Control decks, which makes Amelia very solid against control heroes. Beware of [[Adora, High Priestess (BCS)|Adora]], who has a good matchup against this deck. | Burn Amelia is one of her best strategies.

There are two common goals for midrange Amelia users: either spamming Grand Disappearance on opponent Monkeys to weaken the opponent, or using Act of Power to gain an advantage in building up a wincon. These decks should equip [[Quick Ready]] and other power-specific finishers as the main wincon. OTK Amelia decks often take advantage of boosted Double Bloons (particularly [[Double Yellow Bloon|Double Yellow]]s, [[Double Ceramic Bloon|Double Ceramics]], or [[Double Rainbow Bloon|Double Rainbow]]s). On the other hand, some decks may focus entirely on duplicating [[The Eternal]] as much as possible. | ||
Her weakest deck archetype is control; this archetype does not heavily depend on spending Gold in the late rounds, rendering Amelia's only purpose in those decks to keep removing opponent Monkeys. However, an opponent's own removal cards or Amelia may leave a control Amelia exposed without her fragile setups with Monkeys that compensate her complete lack of defense, and Bloontonium resources (if applicable). | Her weakest deck archetype is control; this archetype does not heavily depend on spending Gold in the late rounds, rendering Amelia's only purpose in those decks to keep removing opponent Monkeys.
