*Equipping multiple Super Monkeys is great for damage. Its slow reload may make fast 1 or 2 delay Bloons able to attack without Super Monkey being able to attack them, but this issue can be mitigated by combining Super Monkey with lower reload Monkeys, like [[MOAB Dominator]].

*With 3 ammo, Super Monkey can distribute among multiple strong bloons or a single bloon. If all bloons have very low health, not using remaining shots can be safely done if next round contains stronger bloons from the [[Storm (BCS)|Storm]].

*Super Monkey can be used against all types of decks. Not only is it good against tempo decks, it's strong against utility Bloons that OTK decks tend to use to make OTK easier to use.

During Version 6.2 playtests, Super Monkey was discussed by community playtesters to be a "fantastic burst" of damage with the highest burst damage in the entire game and immense flexibility against a variety of deck archetypes.<ref name="odyssey-6.2-video">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTs-Rj9TCVw|title=BCS 6.2 Tester Commentary|publisher=YouTube, Odyssey}}</ref><ref name="odyssey-6.2-reddit">{{cite|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/bloonscardstorm/comments/1pok1pk/62_beta_changes_that_didnt_make_it_into_the_game/|title=6.2 Beta Changes That Didn't Make It Into The Game (w/ tester notes)|publisher=Reddit, r/bloonscardstorm}}</ref> Nerfing it to 9 Gold was justified to make it a little less effective against aggro and fast-paced tempo while not changing much against ordinary tempo or OTK.<ref name="odyssey-6.2-video" />
