As a very cheap tier 5, the Blazing Sun serves a similar role to the 2-0-5 [[Elite Defender (BTD6)|Elite Defender]], with both towers lacking pierce but having high attack speed and damage. The Blazing Sun trades off unlimited range for higher DPS and the capability to one-shot [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloon]]s before round 81, allowing the player to easily save up to an expensive tier 5. However, it falls off after said round, due to Super Ceramics taking multiple shots to pop. As such, cleanup towers should be used alongside it, such as [[Etienne (BTD6)|Etienne]] for his UCAV ability or [[The Bloon Solver (BTD6)|The Bloon Solver]]. Its damage-over-time is high enough to consider pairing the upgrade with [[The Final Harmonic]] to amplify its effect. Like with all Desperados, [[Captain Churchill (BTD6)|Captain Churchill]] is a strong pick to cover its weaknesses.
