I wasn't thinking of this at the time. I did see someone doing that in another run, I might try it if I get back to this challenge

I think I was afraid of DDTs getting by during the sacrifice window. Strictly speaking the whole strat would be better if everything was further forward

I wish (bottom path boats are banned)

Favoured trades is banned, if it wasn't I'd be using it. Grand Sabo is good, I haven't implemented it into the run because it's a little tricky to time (and I wasn't thinking about it when I did this run) it but it might be a way to improve on this. BMA I don't think will be all that good since it only has time to pop like 10 ZOMGs, which all only have a few thousand health. Navarch is banned because bottom path boats are banned.

flavored trades is banned

Actually the money is pretty tight here, you can see me selling towers at the end because of it and almost losing the run for it (selling and rebuying antibloon is extremely expensive). Both the end of round income and the increased sellback would have been extremely helpful. Sadly it's banned in this challenge

​@@rory_person_beingwould it be optimal to put a monkey village next to the antibooon for increased cash generation?

I tried using paragons, but they just don't deal anywhere near the damage of repeated antibloon activations in a situation like this, and cost a lot more. You only get enough money for the cheaper ones (dart, boomer, maybe sub) and those just don't deal anywhere near the damage you want, and don't provide extra money or stall like the temple does (the temple is here to get money, stall, and pick off DDTs, not to rack up pops). I was able to get a run that got to like 15-20m pops with boomer paragon I think.

@rory_person_being Lo entiendo, sé que la salud de los globos incrementa por ronda y el dinero puede ser una limitante pero también pudiste optar por usar el ninja 0-5-0 su habilidad reduce la salud de todos los globos que se generen y en rondas muy altas la cantidad de daño o pops acumulado, es bestial ¿No lo habías pensado? Comprueba eso en entorno de pruebas desde la ronda 300 o 250, además obtienes más tiempo para reaccionar a los DDT que se mueven en un fotograma. ¿Te sirve la información?

@@eduardogutierrez642 050 Ninja is good. I wasn't using it when I originally did this run, but I've started trying to implement it since (I saw another run going for it). It's definitely worth using, but I've found that it's difficult to fit in along with the tsar/antibloon micro. It definitely could get used for some good runs, and might help in beating this run, but it's certainly not vastly better than just doing more antibloon micro. I wasn't thinking about it at the time of this run though, and it *is* good.

He popped 115 million wdym

@@Timtheparrot he was being sarcastic

@@Prettykooltbh it's hard to read sarcasm over text 😭

@@TimtheparrotI get you bro 😂

jajajaa

just someone too good at btd6 races

You ._.

Shut up

It might be (edit: no). I haven't seen any other runs that are higher anywhere online. That being said, it's certainly not impossible to get quite a bit higher than mine, so it's not hard to believe that someone has gotten more than me. edit: It's not. Ajaya has a 225m, which can be found here (www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Zh2PYcE3X/)

​@@rory_person_beingi did saw a someone from bilibili did a 220m run which uses selling and buying tsar bomba technique and squeezing out a legend of the night and rush to r255 (the limit of this challenge)

ajaya got ​555m about 10 days ago

@@xinger-n7e I did a bit of digging and found the run you're referring to (www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Sf2gYKEn2/ for anyone who wants it). It is a very impressive run, and points at how good Grand Sabo can be in this. However, I think this run and my run are fundamentally different because ajaya doesn't beat the challenge. Getting 500m+ pops and dying is just different to getting 100m+ pops and not dying. This isn't to say that one's better than the other, just that they shouldn't be directly compared to each other when keeping records. It's a lot easier to get a higher pop count when you don't finish the run, but 500m is a much bigger number. However, ajaya does have a strictly better run than mine: www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Zh2PYcE3X/. This run is only 225m pops, but ajaya lives.

Who's going to send me there? Jaw?

Banks seem really good at first glance, but they're not, mainly because of how stuck the money gets. When using banks, you're forced to wait an extended period of time before reinvesting. This means that in reality, they don't grow exponentially as effectively as farms/marketplaces. They do produce a lot more, sure, but it ends up getting counteracted by how slowly they give it to you. And in terms of round efficiency, they lose out instantly the moment Trade Empire comes into play, meaning that a lot can get wasted on banks, since they're used for such a short period of time and you may not get perfectly-timed income cycles. Moral of the story, farm average income per round numbers aren't everything. Banks seem really good, but they can get outpaced pretty consistently by marketplace strats. Now, IMF Loan strats are a different story, but I'm not as familiar with them so I didn't go for them here.
