Monarch of Storms has a steep cost compared to cheaper options (such as {{BTD6|Icicle Impale}} or {{BTD6|Super Glue}}). For a similar price, [[Bloon Crush (BTD6)|Bloon Crush]] is generally more consistent for the stalling role unless Monarch of Storms gains enough speed buffs (e.g. [[Poplust (BTD6)|Poplust]]) for the differences in damage and crowd control to matter. However, Monarch of Storms's single-target damage is not bad, due to the rehitting superstorms, but fails to be effective in Boss Events due to the lack of Boss damage on its superstorms, though in [[Boss Rush]] it has a niche for blowing back leaking MOABs and DDTs against especially [[Phayze]].

Monarch is not compatible with extreme [[Freeplay (BTD6)|Freeplay]] strategies due to the superstorms removing all of [[Herald of Everfrost]]'s debuffs.


5-0-2 is the preferred crosspath, due to the increased attack speed and projectile lifespan. 5-2-0 is redundant as pierce is rarely an issue.
