Pat's Pond is an Advanced map in Bloons TD 6, introduced in version 9.0. It takes place at a pond in a forest. This map is associated with Pat Fusty and is canonically a popular spot for Hero picnics.[1]
Layout
Pat's Pond has 2 lanes, one coming from the left and one coming from the right, with their entrances and exits overlapping. The left lane curves toward the top, while the right lane curves toward the bottom. In the middle, the lanes diverge apart completely. There is a large pond, the namesake of this map, in the middle for water towers. It contains four removables that block line-of-sight, two trees on land and two rocks in water, each removable for $500.
Strategy
The optimal strategies are rather unusual on this map. Due to how far apart the lanes are in the middle, most strategies involve cramming short-range towers at either the left or the right entrance. Most global-range towers, such as Heli Pilots and Advanced Intel Monkey Subs, are susceptible to chasing due to the separation of the lanes in the middle, severely hindering their usability. The right entrance is used more often, as it is where the BAD exits and the long time it takes for the BAD to reach there gives more time for towers to prepare with abilities or effects that build up. The overlapping entrances and exits also make it hard to tell whether Bloons are leaking or not, making the gameplay frustrating for many players.

Reasoning
|
| Sauda
|
|
The fact that only small portions of this map are suitable for tower placements makes Sauda well-fitted for this map. When placed near an entrance and exit, she can cover both lanes quite well and breeze through the early game. In the late game, she shines with her Level 7 and Level 11 synergies when adding supports that apply stuns and other debuffs to Bloons.
|
| Super Glue
|
|
The short portion of this map suitable for towers makes Super Glue pivotal to stalling Bloons & blimps and buying time for towers to deal damage. Its support capability has been extremely powerful ever since Version 41.0. It pairs especially well with Sauda, who can take advantage of its stuns and deal massive damage to Bloons and blimps.
|
| Carpet of Spikes
|
|
Carpet of Spikes is one of the few towers that can actually take advantage of the middle, divergent section of the map. Its global spikes defeat DDTs with ease, and its main attack helps pop the outer layers of blimps coming from the close side and catch some Bloon leaks from the far side. It trivializes the Round 100 BAD.
|
| Glaive Lord
|
|
Glaive Lord's ricocheting and spinning rangs both gain high amounts of power on this map. The ricocheting rangs can bounce all the way across the map (though they only apply DoT to the first target hit, limiting the damage dealt to MOABs on the far side) and its spinning rangs are well-utilized when placed close to an entrance/exit area, demolishing Super Ceramics coming from either side.
