*To allow its power to scale, let Spike-o-pult one-shot a bloon. During the early stages of the Spike-o-pult, pop weakened bloons. As its power scales up, it will be easier to immediately one-shot with a Spike-o-pult without needing other monkeys to help out.

*Initially, the Spike-o-pult is a weaker [[Sniper Monkey (BCS)|Sniper Monkey]] that can be buffed by [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BCS)|Super Monkey Fan Club]], but after two boosts it surpasses the Sniper Monkey's Attack Power.

*Spike-o-pult is an excellent candidate for [[Try this!]], as the increased max ammo allows faster scaling.
*Giving Spike-o-Pult extra ammo ([[Temporary Ammo]], [[Try this!]], etc) allows it to pop more Bloons and scale faster.
*[[The Eternal]] scales HP much faster than the Spike-o-pult can scale damage, even with extra ammo.
*[[The Eternal]]'s health scales slightly faster than Spike-o-Pult's ATK without extra ammo.
*In practice, Spike-o-pult is strong only if the opponent lacks Monkey removals, such as [[Shrink]] and [[Return to Sender]]. Avoid overrelying on a scaled Spike-o-pult for damage.
