Bloon send

This article is in need of research. You can help out by editing this article or discussing your findings on the talk page. The editor who added this notice elaborates: In the Flash version of Bloons TD Battles, sent MOAB-Class Bloons have half as much health until round 31. Does this also happen in the mobile version?

Bloon sends are a game mechanic in Bloons TD Battles and Bloons TD Battles 2 that allow players to spend cash to send additional groups of Bloons to their opponents. Bloon sends are the main way of attacking the opponent and attempting to reduce their lives to zero. Additionally, most types of Bloon sends modify the sender's income, making them the main way of increasing income. Bloon sends come in different types with different properties, such as the type of Bloon sent, the amount, and the spacing between Bloons. More types of Bloon sends are unlocked on later rounds, and they can be granted Bloon Mods for an additional cost.

Mechanics

This section is incomplete. You can help out by expanding it. The editor who added this notice elaborates: elaborate more on what each property of Bloon sends do and describe how the queue system works (+ limits to how many bloons can be queued, which is different between Flash and mobile Battles 1)

In Bloons TD Battles 2, instead of keeping all Bloon sends unlocked throughout the game, some weaker Bloon sends are replaced with stronger versions on later rounds. The player only has access to up to 10 Bloon sends at a time, excluding Bloon Mods. There are three types of Bloon sends: Spaced, Grouped, and Tight. The number of Bloons on the icon indicate the type of send. (1 Bloon = spaced send, 2 Bloons = grouped send, 3 Bloons = tight send.) Spaced sends are the slowest, but stronger bloons can be sent out. Grouped sends are faster and increase/decrease eco quickly. Tight sends send bloons extremely quickly and are used for quick rushes later in the game.
