'''Grandmaster Ninja''' is the [[Ninja Monkey (BTD6)|Ninja Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It allows the Ninja Monkey to throw 8 shurikens at a time instead of 5 (9 with {{BTD6 mk|Deadly Tranquility}}) over a 72° arc. This upgrade also increases the [[damage]] of Ninja Monkey's shuriken attack from 1 to 2, doubles the shurikens' attack speed, increases Ninja Monkey's range by +10 [[Unit|units]], and slightly elevates the Ninja Monkey's line of sight.

Grandmaster Ninja without buffs is extremely inefficient for its cost, in fact far more inefficient than multiple [[Bloonjitsu (BTD6)|Bloonjitsu]]s, but this is compensated by allowing the player to focus all buffs on it, saving plenty of space particularly with [[Shinobi Tactics (BTD6)|Shinobi Tactics]] spam providing the majority of its true potential.

Bottom crosspaths are the best for Grandmaster Ninja, allowing shurikens to maximize pierce, and [[Caltrops (BTD6)|Caltrops]] can do some extra single-target damage. ~~Middle crosspath is hardly improved, and masses~~ of Shinobis do the role of blowback and decamo far more efficiently.

Masses of Shinobis do the role of blowback and decamo far more efficiently, making the middle crosspath Grandmaster mostly redundant.

When max buffed with all debuffs active on bloons, the Grandmaster Ninja is one of the highest DPS towers in [[Freeplay]], even outdamaging [[Sun Temple (BTD6)|Temples]] (and the [[Apex Plasma Master|Dart Paragon]], though this is map ~~dependant~~)
