*The Boomerang Monkey is outclassed by other early-game monkeys, as it only has 25 damage per turn against single targets, or 40 if two or more bloons are on screen. In comparison, [[Mortar Monkey (BCS)|Mortar Monkey]] costs 1 less but does the same damage per turn against a random target, or [[Dart Monkey Twins]] which take up 1 more tower space and is 1 gold cheaper than Boomerang, but do 10 more damage per turn, and [[Triple Shot (BCS)|Triple Shot]] does 20 more total damage against 3 targets while doing the same total damage versus 2.
*Boomerang Monkey heavily relies on its back hit to compete against other early-game options, by default dealing 10 damage more than its main attack. In optimal conditions, it does 50 damage per turn when two or more Bloons are on screen. If possible, always let it attack one square behind the Bloon that should take the most damage.
*The Boomerang Monkey is much weaker than other early-game Monkeys. Its biggest rival is [[Triple Shot (BCS)|Triple Shot]], which for the same cost does 10 more total damage against 3 targets while doing the same total damage versus 1, but 10 less against 2.
*[[Rang Bloon (BCS)|Rang Bloon]] can help build up Boomerang Monkeys, but generally not advised because Boomerang Monkeys are expensive to place early on.
