*Despite its slightly higher damage and ammo-to-reload ratio, this card is outclassed by ~~the~~ [[Monkey Investigator]], which costs 3 [[Gold (BCS)|Gold]] instead of 4 and has a useful On Play effect, [[Mine Supervisor]] ~~costing 4~~ [[~~Gold (BCS)|Gold~~]] ~~but having the same DPT and an ability,~~ and [[Sniper Monkey (BCS)|Sniper Monkey]], ~~who~~ has ~~the same~~ DPT, burst damage, and is 3 Gold instead of 4. Crossbow Monkey's few benefits over sniper is that it can be affected by [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BCS)|Super Monkey Fan Club]], it has better burst buffing potential and it has more flexible targeting.

*Despite its slightly higher damage and ammo-to-reload ratio, this card is outclassed by [[Monkey Investigator]], which costs 3 [[Gold (BCS)|Gold]] instead of 4 and has a useful On Play effect; [[Mine Supervisor]], which has the same cost and DPT but also generates [[Bloontonium]]; and [[Sniper Monkey (BCS)|Sniper Monkey]], which has better DPT and burst damage and costs 3 Gold instead of 4. Crossbow Monkey's few benefits over sniper is that it can be affected by [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BCS)|Super Monkey Fan Club]], it has better burst buffing potential, and it has more flexible targeting.

**Crossbow Monkey does one-shot [[Red Bloon (BCS)|Red Bloon]]s outside of Dark Castle, unlike Monkey Investigator outside of Game Night.

**Crossbow dealing 80 damage allows it to pop [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]].

**On a deck that relies on Fan Club synergy to defend, Crossbow is still a questionable choice, as its buffing power ~~isn’t~~ higher than most other dart monkeys. Bringing it if combined in a deck with a mid-game win condition to defend for a while before the final kill can be a decent budget strategy.
