'''First Strike Capability''' is the [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Monkey Sub]]'s path 2 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Monkey Sub the First Strike [[Activated Ability|ability]], which when activated launches a missile at the strongest Bloon on screen, dealing 10,000 [[damage]] to it and creating an explosion which deals 350 damage with a [[pierce]] of 80. The first strike missile can damage all Bloon types and can see [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloons]] even if the Monkey Sub cannot. Since the explosion also damages its main target, the main target takes a total of 10,350 damage from First Strike. This ability has a cooldown of 60 seconds and an initial cooldown of 20 seconds. | '''First Strike Capability''' is the [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Monkey Sub]]'s path 2 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''.

First Strike Capability's ability does incredible single-target damage for a long cooldown. It stands out in CHIMPS specifically for destroying the Round 100 BAD, bought on Round 99 in preparation for Round 100, and on medium-to-long maps, two First Strike abilities are possible on it. With proper timing during the BAD's final health stage, no offspring are spawned due to one-shotting the BAD. In Boss Events, First Strike is a common choice for Ranked Boss kills against [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]] and [[Vortex (BTD6)|Vortex]], compared to [[Spike Storm (BTD6)|Spike Storm]] which is more buffable and better against the other Bosses. First Strike is serviceable at one-shotting single ZOMGs, but its long cooldown prevents it from eliminating all ZOMGs in later rounds. | |||
Unlike other single-target specialists, such as [[Spike Storm (BTD6)|Spike Storm]] and [[MOAB Eliminator (BTD6)|MOAB Eliminator]], First Strike only requires water placement and is not dependent on synergies to maximize its single-target damage, though it does appreciate from water cooldown reductions via [[Bloontonium Reactor (BTD6)|Bloontonium Reactor]] or [[Energizer (BTD6)|Energizer]]. Additionally, its hardcoded Strong targeting makes it awkward against [[Dreadrock Bloon]]s (though decent against [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]]'s Primary layer in Boss Events), but not usually a problem in other situations. | |||
Crosspathing doesn't affect the First Strike's ability, so a crosspath is often unnecessary unless progressing to its T5 or from the T3. As First Strike lacks any improvements to its main attack, simply crosspath First Strike based on [[Ballistic Missile (BTD6)|Ballistic Missile]]. | |||
