* {{B|BAD|BTD6}}s are the only significant threat, as all other Bloons and blimps can be permanently stalled. [[Monarch of Storms]], which blows back blimps spawned by BADs immediately after the BAD pops with tornadoes on top it, is sufficient for completely neutralizing the threat of non-BADs. The best way to deal with BADs in freeplay is by using  [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]] as her level 20 ability deals percentage damage to BADs

* Do not overspend on defense during the first hundred rounds, as the gameplay is typically on [[Easy]] mode on a [[Beginner]] map. Instead, focus on farming.

* {{B|Banana Central|BTD6}} + {{B|Banana Research Facility|BTD6}} spam + {{B|Monkeyopolis|BTD6}} + {{B|Overclock|BTD6}}s (for the Farms) is the best simple farming strategy. Stalling to farm with {{B|Support Chinook|BTD6}}s (and later with {{B|Supply Drop|BTD6}}s) produces more income, but it is not necessary, as Banana Farms already permit a full setup with tens of millions to spare.

* Apart from the two main strategies of [[Sun Temple (BTD6)|Temple]] spam and Ninja army, a third strategy called ''Hybrid'' has recently been developed that involves using [[Support Chinook (BTD6)|Support Chinook]] to move Ninjas into Sun Temple's range as they transform, allowing for a Ninja and Temple army in one setup, providing currently unparalleled popping power.

** Start investing into Paragons that will less likely "steal" future pops. The [[Master Builder]] is generally recommended to be first of the Paragons, the former relying on XXXL Trap's instakills to maximize pops.

* Using stalling towers such as [[Bloon Crush (BTD6)|Bloon Crush]] at the start of the track can help greatly to get full Ultraboost stacks on every tower, or stall for abilties such as the [[Legend of the Night (BTD6)|Legend of the Night's]] Black Hole.

* Set stalling towers (such as Monarch of Storms and [[Master Builder]]) to [[First]], set [[Navarch of the Seas]] and [[Nautic Siege Core]] (if unsubmerged) to [[Last]], and set all other targetable towers to [[Strong]].

*Unlocking [[Monkey Knowledge (BTD6)|Monkey Knowledge]] is vital. There is no MK that is truly detrimental to extreme Freeplay on non-CHIMPS games.

|As Monarch of Storms, along with Paragons with stalling capabilities (such as Master Builder and Ascended Shadow), can already permanently prevent non-BADs from moving; extra stalling is not useful, unless using Bloon Crush to stall for abilities such as Legend of the Night passive. None of the listed towers deal sufficient raw damage to BADs to be worth it either. Note that Bloon Crush is also useful in CHIMPS Freeplay to stall for {{B|Legend of the Night|BTD6}}'s passive ability.
