==Changes==

===Bloon Sends===

|quote=We are slightly increasing the spacing between the bloons in the Tight Lead send to take a little bit of the sting out of a very oppressive rush. We are also bringing the unlock round forwards for Tight Ceramics as they struggle to be relevant later in the game alongside MOAB class rushes.

}}

===Maps===

|quote=As a longer map that favours stalling, Up On The Roof can lead to very long games in Hall of Masters. We are removing it from the HOM ranked pool to keep these games shorter and more exciting.  

|changes=

}}

===Dart Monkey===

|quote=The changes in 4.5 to make hoardes of Dart Monkeys less effective did not have the desired result so we are moving some of the cost of the triple darts upgrade into the base cost and weakening the powerful crossbow upgrades.  

|base cost before=150|base cost after=200

}}

===Ice Monkey===

|quote=We are reducing the power of Ice Monkey’s Deep Freeze and Snowstorm upgrades to make it easier to rush in the early and mid game and increasing the cost of the xx4 Icicles upgrade since this offers too much value for its cost.

}}

===Glue Gunner===

|quote=These changes reduce the effectiveness of using Glue Gunner as a starting tower and indirectly reduce the effectiveness of dissolver and glue hose which were extremely efficient. We are also changing the cooldown and duration of the Glue Storm ability so that it can’t be kept permanently active without microing.  

|path 1 tier 2 cost before=300|path 1 tier 2 cost after=500

}}

===Monkey Sub===

|quote=We are making the Monkey Sub’s decamo effect more reliable to better cope with the new speed of boosted camo purples.

===Heli Pilot===

|quote=MOAB Shove needed a small buff to prevent it being overwhelmed by the newly boosted MOAB speeds while the Support Chinook was due a price increase as it is currently the one of the best alternative income sources in the game.  

|path 2 tier 4 cost before=7500|path 2 tier 5 cost after=8500

}}

===Wizard Monkey===

|quote=This is a bug fix rather than a deliberate balance change but the significant effect it will have on the Prince of Darkness makes it worth calling out here. Previously the POD was using large numbers of bloon souls to create very high pierce zombie MOABs which would cause the graveyard to drain very quickly. POD now uses fewer souls to create much lower pierce MOABs so that it can create more of them over a longer period.

===Druid===

|quote=These changes aim to spread the power of the Druid around a little rather than having the Avatar of Wrath as the one, standout upgrade.  

|path 1 tier 4 cost before=4300|path 1 tier 4 cost after=4000

|path 2 tier 4 cost before=4200|path 2 tier 4 cost after=4000

|tiers 1=X5X|changes 1=

|path 3 tier 5 cost before=45000|path 3 tier 5 cost after=52000

}}

===Spike Factory===

|quote=This price increase makes microing the Spike Storm ability more expensive while still keeping the overall power of the tower intact.  

|path 2 tier 4 cost before=5200|path 2 tier 4 cost after=6200

}}

===Quincy===

|quote=Quincy has been struggling to maintain his identity as an early game hero so we are increasing his effectiveness in that niche. His Storm of Arrows ability is not as good at cleaning up MOAB insides or handling tight ceramics as it should be so we are adding extra damage to make it better in those situations.

===DJ Benjammin'===

|quote=These are just minor quality of life changes to DJ. The change to Beatdown is to prevent Tech Bot from automatically firing the ability when there are no bloons to be affected by it.

*{{change|DJ Ben now displays a buff icon to show how many other towers are in his range.}}

|changes 2 levels=10+|changes 2=

}}

===Fusty the Snowman===

|quote=Fusty’s ability to remove Ice Monkey’s weakness to white bloons was making part of his Chilling Cheer ability redundant before it had a chance to be relevant and was contributing to making Ice strategies too hard to rush. We are moving the global buff to higher in his upgrades so that the effect requires his ability to be active in the earlier game.

===Bonnie===

|quote=Bonnie’s Mass Detonation was providing a bit too much defensive capabilities for a money making hero.
