Misdirection is the COBRA's path 2 tier 4 upgrade in the mobile version of Bloons TD Battles. It grants the Misdirection ability for the COBRA. When used, the strongest non-ZOMG Bloon (including Camo Bloons) within range is immediately sent to the opponent's natural lane. The cooldown of the ability varies depending on Bloon type (BFBs: 60s, MOABs: 30s, Ceramics: 10s, others: 5s) and an initial cooldown of 15 seconds after purchase.

The COBRA has always been a popular tower, but we've seen an increase in use-rates over the past few weeks [...] We've also increased the cost of the Misdirection upgrade to make stacking the ability a little more difficult.
— Update notes
  •   Upgrade cost increased ― $3,250 → $3,500
We think it's close to being just right, but might still be a little too powerful. [...] We've also doubled the initial cooldown for the Misdirection ability as it's just too valuable at the moment.
— Update notes
  •   Ability: initial cooldown increased ― 10s → 20s
  •   Ability: cooldown when used on a BFB reduced ― 90s → 60s
  •   Ability: initial cooldown reduced ― 20s → 15s
  •   Overall cost reduced by $200 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  •   Attrition: cash per tick when the opponent has 2 or fewer lives left increased ― $30 → $50
