Boomerang Monkey lacks late game potential, with its tier 5s generally being regarded as on the weaker side. We’ve buffed up the MOAB Domination so that it can better deal with the beefy MOAB class bloons in the later rounds. — Update notes
Despite receiving a few major buffs in the past, Inferno Ring still doesn't see much action and so we’re giving it another damage increase, this time to its ring in order to improve its grouped popping power. — Update notes
The basic Caltrops change has been made so that they can pack more of a punch, since previously they often got disregarded as being insignificant. Additionally, they were known for contributing towards lag, especially if you had lots of them, so hopefully the slower attack rate will offer a slight improvement in this area. — Update notes
Acid Pool gets very little attention, so we thought that it’d be an interesting and logical addition to allow the pools to hit camo bloons passing over them. — Update notes
Spike Factory’s bottom path has potential but often is not the best option because it must be bought in advance to build up a decent pile. Since the bottom path is all about longer durations, we’ve increased the duration of the speed boost at the start of each round, allowing slightly beefier spike piles to be built up in the short term. — Update notes
For being the only heroes that does not provide any bloon popping power early on, Benjamin and DJ Ben Jammin’ were pretty highly priced relative to the other heroes. — Update notes

Since Smudge Catt Ezili is currently a very under-utilised hero, we would like to give her Scratching Post ability a couple of buffs so that it can be more effective at dealing with rushes. — Update notes

While Adora has demonstrated effectiveness in the later stages of the game, her performance is lacking early on, especially initially before she upgrades to shoot out multiple sparks. To address this, we have lowered the base cost and changed the leveling curve, so that she can reach some of the key early levels a little sooner. Furthermore, Long Arm of Light has been improved to make it a more impactful ability, as it currently offers mediocre assistance. — Update notes
