Carpet of Spikes (BTD6): Difference between revisions

Line 30:

Carpet of Spikes is a solid T5 for its high widespread MOAB-class damage. Its main strength is against low density rounds, including most DDT and BAD rounds in CHIMPS, ~~and favors~~ maps with low lane coverage. Against Bosses, Carpet of Spikes is effective choice against Lych and Phayze, as both Bosses lack high density bloons nor tower stuns. It has insane synergy with [[Lord of the Abyss]], which not only clears out plenty of weakened bloons that would otherwise consume the spikes, but also boosts its pierce substantially for essentially more DPS. Other T5's that clear bloon swarms may pair well with Carpet of Spikes, such as [[The Bloon Solver (BTD6)|The Bloon Solver]].

Carpet of Spikes is an effective choice against Lych and Phayze, as both Bosses lack high density bloons and tower stuns. It has a very strong synergy with [[Lord of the Abyss]], which not only serves as cleanup, but also boosts its pierce, and in turn its DPS, substantially. Other T5's that clear bloon swarms can pair well with Carpet of Spikes, such as [[The Bloon Solver (BTD6)|The Bloon Solver]].

Top crosspath is optimal in most cases, but bottom crosspath with 0-5-2 is much better on maps with alternating lanes such as [[Erosion]], [[Bazaar]], or [[Muddy Puddles]].
