*For newer players, Dr Monkey acts as a support for the early game ~~bloons~~, removing potentially dangerous properties like Camo and Regrow in order to properly deal with the ~~bloon~~ rushes. ~~The upgrade~~ to ~~slow bloons affected also benefits this,~~ providing more time for a weaker defense to ~~pop down rainbows~~ and ~~ceramics~~.

*For newer players, Dr Monkey acts as a support for the early game Bloons, removing potentially dangerous properties like Camo and Regrow in order to properly deal with the Bloon rushes. Slowing Solution and Damage Decoction further improve his support capabilities by dealing chip damage to Bloons (without having to worry about Regrow Bloons regenerating) and providing more time for a weaker defense to deal with Rainbows and Ceramics.

*Once Extreme and Impoppable maps ~~are unlocked~~ and the player ~~has acquired~~ better trinkets and weapons, Dr Monkey's role shifts more towards ~~economy purposes~~. By rushing Alchemy, one can aquire 4x as much cash ~~against bloons~~ compared to normal.

*Once Extreme and Impoppable maps become available and the player unlocks better trinkets and weapons, Dr Monkey's role shifts more towards cash generation. By rushing Alchemy, one can aquire 4× as much cash from popping Bloons compared to normal.

:*If a player ~~is using~~ [[King of Ooo's Scepter]] ~~to paint bloons gold, Dr Monkey's effectiveness becomes limited~~. While Dr Monkey can often cover more ~~bloons~~ in gold, his acid damage can ~~often~~ get in the way as [[Banana Replicator (BATTD)|Banana Replicator]] ~~will~~ not ~~trigger for~~ allies~~, as well as~~ [[C4 Charlie (BATTD)|C4 Charlie]] ~~covering bloons in gold before they pop, allowing~~ much more cash ~~generation than intended~~.

**If the player is at [[level|rank]] 93 or higher and equips the [[Magic Coin Purse (BATTD)|Magic Coin Purse]], they can start with a Dr Monkey with Damage Decoction. On maps where a single Dr Monkey can cover all lanes, he can solo carry the player for long enough to afford Alchemy.

**Dr Monkey competes in this role with [[King of Ooo's Scepter]]. While Dr Monkey can often cover more Bloons in gold, his acid damage can get in the way as [[Banana Replicator (BATTD)|Banana Replicator]] does not count damage dealt by allies. [[C4 Charlie (BATTD)|C4 Charlie]] with King of Ooo's Scepter is a much cheaper and more efficient cash generator, though he takes up a character slot.
