{{strategy needed|Add further strategies of how to generally use Geraldo, and put any spare ideas in Tips. Clarify when to time his lvl20 restock in chimps. Find other items and synergies that matter to Geraldo. Compare him with other heroes (mainly the ability-centric heroes, Corvus, and simpler heroes like Sauda)}}

Geraldo has a variety of items that make him a flexible hero. He does not require much micromanagement during rounds, but encourages players to actively manage items (and sometimes levels, too) for each round. He's not simple to use compared to other Heroes, however he can simplify most stages of the game at the cost of in-game cash. Avoid overspending on his items, and always understand the value of his items before consuming them in non-casual games. Explore his items in casual games first to gain a general understanding of them.

He stands out on [[Boss Bloon Event (BTD6)|Boss Bloon Event]]s, mainly because of his [[Paragon Power Totem]]s and relatively efficient income generation (via [[Rare Quincy Action Figure]] and [[Fertilizer]]). He also stands out in [[Least Tiers]] because his items can be spammed when income is not a concern, and items don't add to tiers. Compared to [[Benjamin (BTD6)|Benjamin]], Geraldo's farming curve is slower at first but picks up once he unlocks Fertilizer. Geraldo has fair synergies with many towers, including middle-path Snipers, top-path Ninjas, and bottom-path Druids, however higher-level players consider him an average-tier Hero for [[CHIMPS]].

In the early-game, his [[Shooty Turret]]s excel at breaking down Bloons, compensating for Geraldo's generally low damage alone. [[Tube of Amaz-o-Glue]] is a simple-to-use slowdown. When buying [[Rare Quincy Action Figure]], ~~selling~~ him after buying ~~it is beneficial for affording~~ a 0-0-0 [[Banana Farm (BTD6)|Banana Farm]] as soon as possible, to compensate the lack of direct income that other Heroes would have.

During the mid-game, use his [[Fertilizer]] onto [[Banana Research Facility (BTD6)|Banana Research Facility]] and [[Banana Central (BTD6)|Banana Central]] on modes that enable cash generation, elsewhere build the four [[Pet Rabbit]]s for efficient cleanup. In Boss Events that require [[Rejuv Potion]] for Tier 2 Boss, buy level 11 on round 55 so he stores 2 Rejuvs before round 60 begins.
