|Dragon's Breath, with the 0-3-2 crosspath, pops all Bloons except for Purples and hyper-dense ones extremely reliably, in addition to dealing some MOAB damage. It performs well for its price throughout the mid-game and late-game, and can save up for more expensive towers like [[Bloon Area Denial System (BTD6)|Bloon Area Denial System]]. Summon Phoenix improves on Dragon's Breath by granting the Phoenix ability, which clears most rounds with ease, in addition to granting an extra flame attack. Two Summon Phoenixes allow for one Phoenix to be present at all times, greatly enhancing its reliability. | |Dragon's Breath, with the 0-3-2 crosspath, pops all Bloons except for Purples and hyper-dense ones extremely reliably, in addition to dealing some MOAB damage.

** [[Crossbow (BTD6)|Crossbow]] performs relatively well in this part of the game, solves all Camos in the 30s on most maps, and can be upgraded to [[Sharp Shooter (BTD6)|Sharp Shooter]] if desired. 2-0-3 is better for raw damage and is optimal with clean-up towers, but 0-2-3 is more reliable and does higher single-target damage. This also applies to Sharp Shooter. | ** [[Crossbow (BTD6)|Crossbow]] performs relatively well in this part of the game, solves all Camos in the 30s on most maps, and can be upgraded to [[Sharp Shooter (BTD6)|Sharp Shooter]] if desired. 2-0-3 is better for raw damage and is optimal with clean-up towers, but 0-2-3 is more reliable and does higher single-target damage.

* As the hero levels up, they become immensely valuable in the mid-game. Proper utilization of their ability/inventory is key in the mid-game (and late-game), and getting towers that work well with them or covers their weakness becomes pivotal. For example, Overdrive pairs well with Geraldo (Sharpening Stone and Jar of Pickles) and [[Admiral Brickell (BTD6)|Admiral Brickell]] pairs well with Destroyer (Naval Tactics and +1 Pierce at Level 8). | * As the hero levels up, they become immensely valuable in the mid-game.

*Round 63 is a troubling round that the player must have adequate preparation for. Grouped popping powers, such as Recursive Cluster, are crucial to defeating this round. The hero's abilities/inventory should also be saved for the start of this round to make sure that the round can be defeated. | |||

* Carefully manage the abilities of towers/heroes, especially at the end of Rounds 63, 74, 75, and 77. Dangerous rushes of Bloons/blimps occur at the start of the round after each of them. | * Carefully manage the abilities of towers/heroes, especially at the end of Rounds 63, 74, 75, and 77.

* The rounds after 64 and before 75 are relatively simple, so some light farming can be done in these rounds. | * The rounds after 64 and before 75 are relatively simple, so some light farming can be done in these rounds. | ||
