you can do microraptor to do those race events when no better option is available (usually just CT TA) but it's not recommended when most of the race options are available, and CT TA is wildly varying in terms of what's good or not to get. also yes you can buy 011 beast in chimps but not at the initially and only mid-round6

Strategy

This section was last updated for: version 52.2

Microraptor is a solid choice to start games, having fair pierce, being ideally purchased along with Piranha. Purchasing it with Gyrfalcon can also be done on maps without water, but it is not as powerful and the combination cannot be afforded initially in CHIMPS (only mid-R6). Due to its small range, frequent re-positioning of the Microraptor is needed on more challenging maps.

As our newest tower to be added to BTD6, we went over feedback for every path and made a large number of adjustments addressing a variety of points.
— Update notes
  • Buff Microraptor no longer fails to attack in some cases when being moved to different heights (bug fix)
  • Buff Top and Middle path Beast Handler paths can now be targeted by Overclock and Ultraboost
Beast Handler’s general repositioning feels far too free right now, the reposition cooldown is being increased to a more reasonably noticeable number so this feels like a meaningful cost.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Beast: Reposition cooldown increased ― 0.5s → 5s
  • Buff Beast Handler reposition cooldown reduced ― 5s → 3s
In going over our large list of price changes for Beast Handler’s lower tiers in 42 this change was received very positively, however we did not realize that in making this change we killed off all chance of dual-beast handlers being used as a round 1 starting option for under $650 in hard modes – So we gotta do that math all over again and convert it for difficulty, painful 😀 All T1 beast prices changed to allow 110 & 101 beast handler combos to be placed for under $650 in hard mode, all T2 & T3 prices shifted around to keep these same cost ratios. [...] Similar to Sentries, Beast spawn placement will now scale closer to the track based on how much range the beast has. [...] We’re slightly reducing beast reposition cooldown as the tiny range leaves movement very tight, which is especially painful for Microraptor path given the low range.
— Update notes
  • Buff Upgrade cost reduced ― $195 → $175
  • Buff Beast: Reposition cooldown reduced ― 3s → 2s
  • Buff Dinosaurs: Now spawns within 30% of their range to the track
  • Nerf Merging/Beast positioning range reduced ― 60 → 50
As a quality of life improvement, Beast Handler movement cooldowns have now been separated
— Update notes
  • Buff Fish & Dino beast reposition cooldowns are now independent
  • Buff Can now move beasts onto ice and ink platforms. Beasts with only ice/ink platforms as valid placement will no longer randomly choose a location when attempting to place into ice/ink platforms. (undocumented)
  • Buff Merging/Beast positioning range increased ― 50 → 60
2-1-0
  • Buff Barracuda: Range increased to match other crosspaths ― 30 → 35 (bug fix)
