I probably had 20 of them myself. Thing was that in round 42 i sent him lots of the red moabs (was regro and costed around 100k in total) and then went afk.. he survived apparently and owned my ass later on.

He had tier 4 mortar, ice tower, bomb tower and boomerang (also 11 000 battlescore), while I only had tier 4 on my bomb tower, boomerang and track shooter but mortar was only tier 3, which made my late game horrible compared to his.

I started track shooters something he basically countered by going ice stalling...

ice > tac.

Ice also decreases the speed of incoming bloons...
Plus boomerangs, bomb towers and mortars can shoot through ice, something a tac shooter can't
Which makes the tac shooter even more worthless than it already is :P.(unless you got the 4-2 upgrade. but if you got 2-3 upgrade which is better cost/dps then you're fucked. :D)

In this map, yes. I like tracks better in YinYang than Ice tho.

No one said anything about ice+track...
3-0 has better dps than 2-3 I believe, at least in cost. When I start track shooter i usually get one 3-0 and then one 2-3 (and enough money for 2-4 on round 13). Unless you're doing ice stalling, track shooter gives more economy as well.

I know hence why i said "which makes the tac shooter even more worthless than it already is :P."

Ice owns tac in any way. (assuming you will go to late game, where the effect of ice tower is noticeable in combination with other towers, ice on its own is worthless obviously.)

2-3 tac shooters have more dps than 3-0/3-2. not only because they are 100% accurate as in they will never miss, but alsot he blades have a chance to hit 2,3 and even 4 bloons at once. something 1 spike can't (which could miss afterall.)

You get ice to help out late game, you get tack shooter to start with and gain economy advantage over other towers. With tack you can send balloons nonstop and not loose lives (on the maps they work on).
Having 800ish economy and stopping regen rainbows rush at round 13 is what it's all about.

Anyway, start out with 3-0 tack, get another 2-3 tack for round 4 or 6 depending on map, and have mortar camo defence at 12, and 2700 dollar at round 13 in case he rushes rainbows. It's a better start than boomerang, but leaves you with 1 less good tower to use later on.

Mortar is pretty awesome tbh. Monkey village can be better late game tho.

The blades disappear after 2 hits.

If Nemo is only playing with his phone then he's correct. If he's talking about btd battle on computer he's dead wrong:p

On phone you only got 3 wonders by ur choice and 1 random one. Phone btd battle is all about engineer/apprentice/bomb tower/banana farm/village +the boat on that horrible boat map. I usually go farm/engineer/apprentice or farm/apprentice/bomb tower on phone.
