Hey ISAB, i like watching your videos late at night. Theyre kind of like the late night live stuff my parents always had on, except this is my generation. I love the content you're putting out now, but i find myself enjoying the "random 5-5-5" mod videos you've done in the past, could you do a few more of those? I actually went out and flagged my main account (becuase I have never done races or anything and I know I'm never going to be doing them). I have never modded any game except for the binding of Isaac until the 5-5-5 videos and it was a lot of fun. You're a great content creator, and I use your content when my wife is asleep and i just want to listen or vaguely watch. Im sure other people watch your videos for other reasons. I heard you were having some issues and I want to give you a video idea incase you run into a block and can't think of new videos to make. I'm a random internet guy and the best i can do to show my support is give my opinion on your videos and offer vague solutions to problems you may or may not have. Outside of content, and in my life I have learned that you should always stay motivated. In professional and personal life, try and find the good side of a difficult situation. Always think of yourself first, if you need to sleep, you're entitled to sleep; if you need to eat, make sure you eat. Dream of and look to the future, having dreams of the future is how we can find some peace in difficult times. Dont think of tomorrow, think of 10 years from now. Where were you 10 years ago? Now look at where you are now, where do you live, what kind of friendships did you have back, and what kind do you have now? Once you see how much you've changed dream of what 10 years from now might be like. You grew your RUclips channel this big, what would your live have been like if you brought that determination to a different career field that you were interested in back then? Then try 5 years, then 1, but dont go lower than 1 year, it can be too stressful. 1 year may even be too short if you haven't done it before. I deployed to Afghanistan so I've had my fair share of difficult times. This is how I got through it, and it worked pretty well. Time seems short during the good, and long during the bad. All you can do is have fond memories of your life. Remember the bad days and what made them bad, its pretty easy to do that, but do the same for the good days.
@ISAB it's not just the random 5-5-5 videos either, that rouguelike mod was really interesting too. Same with ancient monkey mod. You're too good at btd6 that watching you struggle with unknowns is fun.
I guess I would also like to request a few videos, "can 5-5-5 towers beat blastapopulous" then the restrictions are max 8 towers, no duplicate towers- as in only 1 dart monkey can be placed, on a hard modded map, no banana farms, but tower income like merchant man and bloon trap are okay. I haven't played a game against the boss yet so idk how necessary farms are for it. If they are don't worry about the banana farm restriction. Selling allowed, but only once every 5? round(s). I'd like to see your strategy. Or how you'd solve the puzzle. Then maybe a video after could be "can random 5-5-5 towers beat blastapopulous" restrictions are 15 tower max. Selling allowed, etc.
To me timed bosses are my favourite because I just want to go ham on farms and defence while playing this game, although I do understand the other side of being more strategic with your play style on the other boss modes
Rather than seeing ranked bosses, I think it could be interesting to do more boss challenges. (If there is a lot of water then water only, or no farms, or only one monkey type
I got kinda bored of the game after completing all medals on all maps even in coop and im gonna take a break for now, I also have all 150 achievments so I HOPE they add some later on, and I would also like some new paragons at this rate 1-2 paragons a year its gonna take another 10 years for all of them to be in the game which is ridiculous.
Hmmm i wonder why you didn't try for elite top 50... Its was so much fun!!!🥳😍 (Idk if NK thought that "spamming 100000 spikestorms -> Rejuv-potion -> *repeat*" would be an awesome meta against a new boss, but i do know that my phone cant handle another fastest time top 50 run if it stays that way... At least getting it was pretty free since apparently noone could be bothered to try)
Question, ISAB: About Paragon degrees, the ONLY thing I can find myself regarding the thresholds every 20 degrees is that the paragon changes visually, I cannot find any documentation that talks about increased power. What's up with that?
Better hardware giving an advantage is out of the dev’s control. Geometry dash is easier (especially frame perfects) if your computer (if you have one, another “p2w” factor) runs 120-240fps but the game is in no way considered pay to win. Really any game that suffers from lag has this issue.
I am using top end hardware for a laptop, and I have to turn performance down to minimum to spam abilities to instakill boss, as bottom mashing isn't fast enough, and autoclickers will get you flagged, top timed players like f7shgang also did this to purposely lag out their computer, so BTD6 is far from pay2win(top ranked player "Darth Plague" plays on a phone, so lag doesn't influence ranked btd6 as much as FPS)
theres a hardware element to most mechanical competitiveness in games, even ones that arent super intensive, but btd6 is honestly on the lower end of that because its the engine more than its your computer.
@@erierierierierie Heyo, I think you maybe a bit confused. A macro is something that you can program to make a computer do. People at the top of the leaderboard all use macros(literally impossible to get top1 without hackers doing it human). For example, while you could argue that you can spam every frame in a laggy game, what about before the game lags? You will still be missing out milliseconds of time. If you run a macro script, a computer can click or hit a hotkey way faster than a human every could. Also, what happens after the lag? I don't have any proof but you could probably find something by searching up "btd 6 macro"
@@ultradespair3606 > i don't have any proof i know what a macro is and while it exists for btd6, i couldn't find any proof of it being used for comp events, plus nk could definitely detect it if they know anything at all about leaderboard moderation.

the start made me realize that, casuals and 95% of people prefer least cash or tiers bosses because they like the simplicity or something
Meanwhile pretty much every boss sweat absolutely hates least cash and tiers and wishes they never came due to how limiting they can be and how different you need to play every them, needing to get just barely enough defense to beat the boss juuuuuust before it exits or round 139 ends, causing dozens to hundreds if resets, meanwhile at least the resets for timed are quick and free, just pause and back out, for least cash or tiers it's much more often restarting last round at round 139 trying to queeze out those 3 tiers, or trying to get away with 1 less druid, or sometimes needing to cave and restart the boss tier and further optimize the rest of the tier or just give up on the tiers or money saved
I mean sweating in least time bosses isn't any different:
- need to mash fill the map with farms with the most efficient farming (unable to chill with an 050 heli like you can in least tiers)
- need to pre-buy ability-based towers the perfect round before, which will eat up your checkpoint
- need to spaaaaaaam towers like spike storm and also as paragon sac (the cash slider is like 5% less efficient than tower spam)
