The Legend of the Night is ~~a very expensive T5 that is~~ one of the strongest single tower upgrades ~~for its very high DPS~~, ~~but unaffordable in most scenarios without farming. It stands~~ out on [[Least Tiers]] in [[~~Boss Bloon Event (BTD6)|~~Boss Events]].

The Legend of the Night is both one of the costliest and strongest single tower upgrades, thus making it stand out on [[Least Tiers]] in [[Boss Events]].

~~As a last resort~~, its black hole ability ~~can sometimes be used~~ in [[~~Freeplay~~]] or against ~~leaking Bloons~~ in a [[~~Boss Bloon Event]] or [[Boss Rush~~]], but its long cooldown ~~makes it a last resort~~ (~~although the cooldown~~ can be reduced by Energizer), ~~and using it for~~ [[VTSG]] deals more damage compared to using both it and ~~the [[The Anti-Bloon (~~BTD6)|The Anti-Bloon~~]]. As~~ a ~~result~~, ~~effective utilization of the black hole ability is important to allow defenses to deal more damage~~ to ~~incoming Bloons and survive long enough to last more rounds or defeat the Boss~~. ~~Legend of the Night can also be used in~~ stall setups ~~in Freeplay, powers included~~, where ~~you~~ can consistently get one use per round ~~so the tower can~~ destroy several BADs.

Although not seeing much use against other Bosses, its passive black hole ability is valuable against {{BTD6|Phayze}} in [[Boss Rush]] due to its tendency to pull Bloons directly to the exit, and against {{BTD6|Bloonarius}}, whose sludge {{BTD6|DDT}}s can escape quickly on shorter maps. It can also be used in [[Freeplay]], but mind its long cooldown (which can be reduced by {{BTD6|Energizer}}). Furthermore, [[VTSG]] deals more damage compared to using both it and {{BTD6|The Anti-Bloon}}, though with careful timing the player can sell VTSG as a last resort, then use LOTN to prolong their high score. This strategy is excellent when paired with stall setups and [[Time Stop]]s, where the player can consistently get one use per round and destroy several BADs.

2-0-5 ~~crosspath~~ is preferred~~~~ for ~~its better~~ DPS ~~against both single-target and groups~~.

2-0-5 is preferred for increased DPS, but is not necessary in the aforementioned Least Tiers or Freeplay stall strategies.

--0-5 crosspath is preferred<!--the 005 edge case in least tiers is assumed, hence "preferred"--> for its better DPS against both single-target and groups.
+-0-5 is preferred for increased DPS, but is not necessary in the aforementioned Least Tiers or Freeplay stall strategies.
