Abyss Dweller

For its cost, the Abyss Dweller is a decent early-game option for taking down stronger bloons, particularly along a curve or bend, in addition to a minor pierce bonus to nearby towers. It's not particularly impactful of a support tower, but has some synergy with [[Spike Factory (BTD6)|Spike Factory]] by taking out stronger groups of bloons while the Spike Factory cleans up a little more efficiently. It stands out on [[Race]] conditions as a relatively inexpensive early-game carry, particularly on CT Time Attack with certain Relics such as [[Alchemist Touch]]. Despite the initial cooldown, the tentacles still provide a significant burst of damage in maps with large loops for [[Race ~~(BTD6)|Race]]~~ conditions.

Crosspaths with 3-1-0 are better if camo detection isn't a problem, maximizing pierce, while 3-0-1 is preferred if needing camo detection or if spaced ~~bloons~~ are a concern. 3-2-0, while it doesn't affect tentacles, clumps up Bloons better~~, while~~ 3-0-2 improves coverage of its tentacles and buffs.
