Beetienne is a Hero Alt of Etienne in Bloons TD Battles 2, introduced in version 4.4. He costs  5,000 Monkey Money and 40,000 Etienne Hero Points to unlock.

Beetienne uses swarms of honeybees to attack nearby Bloons with their stingers.

• Starting at level 2, he unlocks Making Honey, a targeting option that causes his swarms to stop attacking and instead generate lives every 3 seconds, and they can generate lives above the usual cap of 150 lives.

• His Defend the Hive! ability summons extra swarms and makes all of his swarms more aggressive and automatically switch back to attacking if they were making honey.

• His Auxiliary Hives ability allows the player to spend lives to place permanent Hive sub-towers that have their own swarms.

• Level 1 : Starts with 2 sub-towers.
• Level 2 : Lets you see your opponent's cash and Bloon sends.
