Blade Shooters are more focused on pierce compared to [[Tack Sprayer (BMC)|Tack Sprayer]]s and barely have enough attack speed and projectile size to consistently hit and pop Bloons below Ceramics, and thus work okay as a starting tower for cities with not a lot of tier 3s researched. It's worse than using other strong starting towers such as [[Bionic Boomer (BMC)|Bionic Boomer]] or [[Quad Darts (BMC)|Quad Darts]], but can be done on [[Monkey Teams (BMC)|Monkey Teams]] reliant on tack as a starting option. | |||
The value of Blade Shooter's +1 pierce becomes less significant with higher MK, even with the lower cost with MK and the larger radius size, because of the many more denser tacks of Sprayers. This makes it completely outclassed until players can take advantage of the hypersonic attacks with high MK on the Flash version, making it stronger once again. On the multiplatform version, since no glitch to make them attack faster exists, it never becomes useful after enough Monkey Knowledge is given. | |||
Always crosspath with [[Even Faster Shooting (BMC)|Even Faster Shooting]] to further boost the attack speed of the blades. | |||
