Bloon Crush is the Bomb Shooter's path 1 tier 5 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It grants the Bomb Shooter's bombs the ability to stun and knockback MOAB-Class Bloons. All stun duration is increased from 1.4 to 2 seconds, and MOAB-Class Bloons are pushed back by 5 units. Additionally, this upgrade increases damage from 4 to 24, grants the Normal damage type, and vastly improves the frags with the Frag Bombs Crosspath: additional 30 damage (36 total), 17 more pierce (20 total), and releases 16 frags.

Strategy

[edit | edit source]
This section was last updated for: version 49.3

Bloon Crush is one of the best towers at stalling, stunning and applying knockback to all types of bloons below BADs, with its stalling power only rivaled by Monarch of Storms and Paragons. Its high pierce makes it able to handle almost every round until 100. It is difficult to save up for in CHIMPS because its preceding upgrade is also a stalling tower with no MOAB popping power, requiring a full mid-game carry such as Artillery Battery. It is recommended to pair it with MOAB Eliminator to help address its lack of BAD damage, and Striker Jones to increase its consistency on maps with multiple lanes.

Even though the Frag Bombs crosspath damage is much higher, the lack of attack speed makes the stuns not as reliable. Thus, 5-2-0 is the preferred crosspath.

Overall, this tower can either be used as a win condition for rounds 81-99 in CHIMPS, or to stall rounds to wait for ability cooldowns (such as in Boss Bloon Events).

Some low tier Bomb pierce has been shifted further up into the 2xx Heavy Bombs upgrade to effectively nerf 130 Mauler meta in price, but the price of these upgrades and MOAB Damage of T4 Maulers have both been buffed to benefit other variations of bomb better. [...] a buff was made to 502’s Bloon Impact’s frags to alter this underused crosspath.

  • Nerf Overall cost increased by $200 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff Pierce increased ― 48 → 50

  • Buff Frag: Damage increased ― 3 → 12
  • Buff Frag: Pierce increased ― 2 → 3
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $75 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
The Frags crosspath for top path Bomb Shooter has always been quite a poor choice, trying to compete with attack speed as a benefit for stun utility isn’t going to ever work out so we have instead gone the route of turning the frags crosspath into a DPS/Stun hybrid with a lot of small buffs to frag power.
— Update notes
5-0-2
  • Buff Frags: Pierce increased ― 3 → 20
  • Buff Gains more frags ― 8 → 16
5-0-2
  • Buff Frags: now deals +12 bonus ceramic damage (bug fix)
    • Note: originally intended to be implemented in v31.0
  • Buff Pierce increased ― 50 → 60
We wanted to add something unique to Bloon Impact while also improving Really Big Bombs very slightly as a stepping stone into it, so now both of these upgrades will become capable of pushing back Bloons that they hit – even if they are stunned or frozen! This allows Bloon Impact to now catch groups of Bloons in a stun net and slowly push them back the way they came while keeping them stunned.
— Update notes
  • Buff Explosions now push back Bloons by 10 units
  • Buff Explosions now push back MOAB-Class by 5 units
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $100 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
Bloon Crush does its job locking down all movement in an area, but we feel it could see more damage to reduce the stall time without the balance really changing much.
— Update notes
  • Buff Explosion: Damage increased ― 12 → 24
5-0-2
  • Buff Frags: Frag damage increased ― 12 → 24
  • Nerf Frags: Frag bonus Ceramic damage reduced ― +12 → +0
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $250 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff Explosion pierce increased ― 60 → 80
Compared among similarly priced hybrid AoE/supports, Really Big Bombs is a lacking stepping stone so we’re improving its damage and granting much more pushback.
— Update notes
  • Buff Pushback increased ― 10 → 20
    • Note: Bloon Crush pushback on MOAB-Class remains the same
Frag damage is being greatly improved all the way up as there’s little reason to trade stun uptime for improved damage.

  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
5-0-2
  • Buff Frags: Damage increased ― 24 → 36
