Extra-Super Monkey is a strong one-reload Monkey that is better than the Wizard Monkey in situations where a lot of Gold may sit around. It's good for anti-aggro and control decks, however early on it still requires supports to handle stronger Bloons.
With 10 Gold spent at max eco (10), Extra-Super Monkey starts with 120 ATK. At max Gold, it starts with 220 ATK, the highest of any one-reload Monkey except a maxed Sun Temple and infinitely scaled Wizard Monkeys.
Against Dreadbloon, it is relatively safe from harm due to being treated as a low cost monkey, and can be stacked with Temporary Ammo from Berserker Brew and other sources without fear of Dreadbloon removing it, even in it's Board Destruction stage.
Development
This card originally had 3 ammo and 3 reload, but it was changed to 1 ammo and 1 reload before the update released due to feedback from community playtesters. Nerfing its base ATK to 15 was also tested, but reverted.[1] One playtester noted that the main reason for the ammo and reload rework was to limit the burst damage of this card, which would otherwise make it too strong for anti-aggro and control decks.[2] The original ammo and reload amounts were displayed in the update video.[3]
