Cash cost	To be determined
Introduced	Version 46.0

The Crucible of Steel and Flame is the upcoming Tack Shooter's Paragon in Bloons TD 6, to be introduced in version 46.0. It is a combination of Inferno Ring, Super Maelstrom, and The Tack Zone.

The Crucible of Steel and Flame constantly attacks with a close-range blade attack that splits into tacks when they expire. It has two Activated Abilities: the Maelstrom ability temporarily increases its pierce and projectile lifespan (allowing its blades to travel further) and causes it to shoot jets of flame nearby, while the Meteor Impact ability spawns a meteor that targets a Bloon and lands on it, dealing heavy damage in a large area and spawning 32 homing fireballs projectiles.
