==Strategy==

Being placeable only on water, the Monkey Buccaneer tends to be more limited in placement options than other DpS towers, but it excels on maps where the water allows it to consistently shoot from both sides at the same time (such as [[Ouch#Ouch]] and [[Quad]]). It has good [[range]] and [[pierce]] for the base cost and a potent low-tier upgrade in [[Grape Shot (BTD6)|Grape Shot]]. [[Admiral Brickell (BTD6)|Admiral Brickell]] grants it powerful buffs and helps shore up its weakness to [[DDT (BTD6)|DDT]]s.

*Path 1's [[Destroyer (BTD6)|Destroyer]] is an early-midgame option that helps a lot against early [[MOAB|MOABs]] when [[crosspath]]ed with Grape Shot and synergizes very well with [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]]. [[Aircraft Carrier (BTD6)|Aircraft Carrier]] and [[Carrier Flagship (BTD6)|Carrier Flagship]]'s planes are powerful but inconsistent, generally performing best on maps with only one active path at a time (such as [[Muddy Puddles]]), and Flagship's platforms and water tower buffs have niches in modes like [[Freeplay]] and [[Boss Bloon Event]]s.

*Path 2 is an earlygame group-popping option with Grape Shot and [[Cannon Ship (BTD6)|Cannon Ship]]. [[Monkey Pirates (BTD6)|Monkey Pirates]] is an alternative to Destroyer that is less effective at single targets, but makes up for it with its ability to delete smaller blimps. [[Pirate Lord (BTD6)|Pirate Lord]] excels at removing a lot of blimp RBE from late-game rounds and also generates some cash.
