Marceline can be built as both a damage dealer and a supporting character with ~~decent~~ effect.

Marceline can be built as both a damage dealer and a supporting character with some effect.

For a damage build, the usual trinkets like [[Baker's Shard]] and [[Demon Heart]] are obvious, as well as Marceline equipping the [[Vorpal Hand]] due to her being a melee character. [[Apple]] in practicality is the only range buff she'll need, as well as it being the only source of flight speed, makes it valuable despite the rarity. [[Dragon Eyes]] can be used to counteract her lack of camo vision, as using [[Glasses of Nerdicon]] would waste the range stat.

For a supporting build, ~~she~~ can be used with ~~decent~~ effect as a map-wide source of eco, as she can equip the [[Mystery Cave Pick]] and [[Thief King's Dagger]] to gain tons of cash early on, provided the player can afford Marceline at the start of a game. ~~Her buffing capabilites are rather weak, as [[Hambo]] only reduces the price of~~ other ~~abilities and not their cooldown~~, ~~resulting in the~~ only ~~real option being a [[Technological Terror (BATTD)|Technological Terror]] damage buff with [[Devil Monster Bass]]. Using her for~~ the ~~damage buff however conflicts with eco,~~ as ~~the more damage she does, the less opportunities she has for painting bloons gold with~~ [[~~King of Ooo's Scepter]] and generating gold with Thief King's Dagger, so [[Fire Guitar~~]] ~~may be preferable for buffing characters with speed, although it provides nearly no benefits for Tech Terrors~~.

For a supporting build, her buffing capabilites are rather weak except for a few strong cases. [[Devil Monster Bass]] is her best weapon, which provides a +1 damage boost to all nearby characters, including the high attack speed allies such as [[Rattleballs]] and [[Technological Terror (BATTD)|Technological Terror]]s. She also uses [[Googoomamameter]] well, as the debuff is applied in an area around Marceline herself and not her amp platform. Outside of that, her options are limited as other specialized trinkets like [[Hambo]] only provide discounts.

She can also be used with some effect as a map-wide source of eco, as she can equip the [[Mystery Cave Pick]] and [[Thief King's Dagger]] to gain tons of cash early on, provided the player can afford Marceline at the start of a game. This is however very outclassed by other eco characters, only relegated to maps that need the map-wide coverage such as [[Crystal Cave]].

Marceline's allies are very set in stone, as she has 3 very important allies in [[Hunson Abadeer]], [[Vampire King]], and [[Grob Gob Glob Grod]], however the last ally slot is very difficult to use as there aren't many that contribute meaningfully to a setup. It can be used for holding the [[Monkey Farmer (BATTD)|Monkey Farmer]] or for [[Wildberry Princess]].
