Why Alchemists Are Overpowered
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 окт 2021
- The alchemist is the best monkey in the game and are overpowered. You should use the alch in just about every run because it is so versatile. The top path provides amazing buffs, the middle path allows for crazy DPS if used correctly, and the bottom path generates tons of cash. I beak down all 3 paths and how to use them in BTD6.

The alch is so good you can even squeeze him into lych runs, especially on ranked mode. But what is your favorite path of the alchemist and why?

Bottom path for sure, easily getting rid of leads and generating extra cash is incredibly useful. Not to mention pairing alchemists with Etienne is a great combination to get those pesky camos.
Do every tower this was entertaining
Top path, I also like 0-3-1
I would like more full tower breakdowns like this. I love this format and your videos
Good to know! This took a long time to make, but I'll try to make more

When you realize you've never used alch middle path, even in sandbox
jee when did u start playing den
@@claire3138 this february
I used it once in an actual game where i forgot to bring any towers for Spillway and ended up needing 040
i have used it for the boss bloons but its not that great annywhhere else because of its price
I've been doing it every once in a while for an achievement. :V
My bottom path alch has always more damage than my VTSG in late rounds with often billions of dmg. I don’t think you’re giving it enough credits.
What's DSG?
I've only heard of VTSG
@@thefunnyaerialman yes sorry that’s what I meant.
@@Namaster88 ah, okay. thanks
It doesnt hit bads though, which are really the only thing that kills late game. It is still good for letting the vtsg focus on bads though.
@@neelkumar9839 Fair point indeed.
I know acid pools is redundant but I've been finding myself using 402 to buff sauda or my permaspikes.
Sauda loves bloons recieving DOT and my permaspike is so far back that it gives me peace of mind.
420 lasts longer, better for one tower.
Yep.
For me it depends, towards the front of the track I like 420 for moab damage. Towards the end part the pools get to build up.
@@capnlatenight5356 if you want the acid pools then get an alchemist for that.
this is completely useless, sauda benefits from DOT damage but she applies it herself, and it does not stack. Using a 402 is directly inferior to a 420
@@collesque5045 she benefits from dot from other monkeys, she doesn't get more damage from her own dot
I'm surprised that ninja kiwi didn't make the alchemist a support tower
Middle and bottom path are much more fitting as magic towers
Ice monkey could be a magic type as well. A lot of them fit into multiple roles
Thank you so much for this video I wasn't sure how 0-0-4 worked with multiple layers or not, time to cheese some maps
I really liked this video, you should do more tower deep dives like this in the future
Man, alive. What an excellent video. Thanks, my guy. I've never understood alchemists very well before, so i'm forever grateful for this.
2:40 I love how he calls the moabs "blimps"
well moab is for only moab(r40 one) not bfbs and others, blimps are all of them moabs,bfbs,zomgs,ddts and bads
It takes less time to say blimps than Moab class bloons
I wish the rubber to gold would be visible on moabs, I always saw him throw it at moabs but never saw it actually do anything…
I does it do everything but bads
0-2-4 is an Underrated Crosspath in ABR since it can do extra damage to the R40 F MOAB
Does it really have to be xx4? Iirc, x2x causes the fortified bonus and you can utilize 021 and maybe transition to 031 for the concoction
@@litodicdican6158 yea x2x is really good for some Moab chip damage, I prefer 4-0-1 alch but if for some reason I get 4-2-0 I always set it on strong
homstuck pfp
You used to be able to stack tier 5 middle path dart monkey and tier 5 middle path alchemist which would be so overpowered and shred through bads, you might still be able to but idk
Nope, i tried it didnt work
I tryed 2 ways
But still didnt
Edit: yes i know it used to
@@Ahmed_onYT "used to"
@@theovermind2889 yeah, it did
Should have mentioned that it used to
@@ayuniieeshizumi...7479 nobody asked
Really good video. Agreed bottom path is by far the most fun for me too
The Alchemist Monkey’s berserker brew upgrade is one of the reasons I started getting interested into the game!
i reccomend to have your alch set to last or close if going bottom path and have a glue gunner in front of it to slow bloons down
Bloon Master Alchemist is one of my favorite upgrades, it’s really good and a cool concept
since when i first got the game when it first came out i used the alchemists buffs its one of the towers i use most
Patch 1.0 would like to have a word with you. They were broken and I loved them
These auto-generated subtitles are godly.
It's Vietnamese for some reason lol
"Computer for pulpils and imported estimated M wellnes" lmao
Ha I turned on when I read this comment and saw "monstercat uncaged"
i saw *"gameshow love"*
"first introduced some advantages of money back to spot corrector the face for use of transportation infrastructure second fortified supermarket and boris becker" lmao 😂😂
Just follow these simple steps and you'll have every map black bordered by tomorrow.... and boris becker xD
The middle path Alch's ability now does 3 damage instead of 2, effectively increasing it's damage by 50%, as of the 35.0 update
The x-x-5 alchemist is so strong that it can kill ghost bloons in sandbox mode
x3x Druid: am I a joke to you?
0-0-4 Engineer: “I’m 26 parallel universes ahead of you”
Psi: *you dare challenge me mortal*
Great video thanks
The auto generated subtitles on this were hilarious 🤣
CONGRATS ON 30K!
Bro the captions make me want to cry 💀
Agreed, alch is definitely the best tower. Top path is insanely god buffing, middle is super underrated and actually very useful, particularly with x3x as it helps a lot with the 90s in chimps, and bottom path is easy extra income that synergises super well with bloon trap. It's sad we don't get to see money generation from bottom path tho.
sharpening stone + alch + jar of pickles + 1-4-0 (or 0-4-2) spactories is an op strategy, it gives +4 more spikes per pile and +2 (or +3 if geraldo is high level) damage to EACH spike pile which just destroys everything
2:08 subtitles:spider man defends against some money is perfect
50k views in 18 hours, nice! this one is REALLY usefull imo, i will be back here a lot of times lol
5:59 i can agree, but i sell the bma after and place a 0-0-0 dart monkey to assert dominance
Nice vid bro
Oboeshoes, what have you got me into
I was playing on freeplay a few days ago and somehow a tier 5 bottom path alc was my strongest tower from rounds 120 - 140ish. The tower apparently got around 9 Mil in those rounds and was competing for damage with my sky shredder ace and moab domination boomerang.
Finally, someone appreciates how good alch buffed neva miss is!! I'd argue it's at least as good as bloonjitsu alch
Bloon Master Alchemist is the only tower I've hit a billion damage with.
Bomb blitz can get u that, unless u mean in a real game
In my current game the Bloon Master Alchemist has more pops then the Glaive Dominus
I just used 024 alchemist on Lych normal and completed it, very useful for popping the leads round 28+, making it easier to focus on farming. I just used the alchemist, ninja, engineer and dart shooter for the early stages so I could just farm and get kills gradually for the 3 paragon round 100+
Noice! I should use rubber to good alchs more
Wouldn't a 104 alch be better?
@@usernametaken017 yes, you're right, that's what I currently use, learnt a lot about the game since that post
I can see the Alchemist being the easiest Paragon to reach degree 100 thanks to BMA. No need for more tier 4 towers to place.
That's not how that works
@@victory48 I mean degree not level sorry 😂
@@victory48 I mean any tower that has so much pops and popping power can beef up the paragon degree.
@@kidsIIIII009 that's still not how that works.
@@obama69890 I searched up and it says it reaches 76 which is the Max for singleplayer. To get degree 100, you must have at least 4 players to achieve that
Trying to watch this video with subtitles is impossible
Here for the preview, I prefer top path alch 😁
ruclips.net/video/z-nmJjf1pb8/видео.html
I learned so much
bro i forgot about how op the bottom path was
GO BLOON MASTER ALCH GO
Man remember the super monkey fan club/total transformation glitch that was op. Man am sad for middle path dart monkey and alchemist. They're the most used towers :/
The auto closed captioning is top quality.
BMA pulls ahead of navarch in later rounds its crazy
Hey could you make a video on how to beat all expert maps on hard mode? I cant find any recent tutorials on it thanks
I didn't know berserker brew grants pierce
You learn something every day =)
You know the list is old when Ninja Bot Path is almost the most underpowered tower
i think you're right that abilities are undervalued, but that's because of the way most people play the game. fundamentally, towers that require the player to pay close attention and constantly make decisions (e.g. tsar/sabo/snowstorm etc) are more mental effort than towers that are just consistently strong all the time. if i'm playing a daily challenge in the morning before work, my main goal is usually to get my defence to the stage where i can leave it running unchecked to round 100 while i take my shower lol
Im pretty sure im the only one who uses bottom path alc i use it to deal with early leads and get extra money and use forth tier to help with farming
literally every meta loadout in BTDB2 is going to include an alchemist
BMA is legit just : GO BACK IM THE MONKE
Alchemist pops lead which means he is the alternative cheap choice for bomb shooter
The perma brew is probably beer
I love your videos
If Acidic Mixure Dip crosspath didnt clash with Lead to Gold i would be so happy
Remember when 0-5-2 dart monkey + 0-4-0 alchemist had the power of VTSG?
Middle path is like a dart monkey hitting a BAD damage in late game compared to bottom path which can’t kill BAD but one shots any health zombies and lower so it is much better
Dart monkey good for easy mode games, crossbow+quick shots
Bottom path is actually OP late game, it’s the monke that gets closest to super monke
Based on the pops of BMA it's really good. I'm not a pro but damn that number is crazy. Late game it's super good since everything that isn't a BAD is weak to BMA.
Shout out to the guy that voted pop and awe as the most overpowered tower
New players: “Super Monkey is the best”
Advanced players: “Severus Snape is the best”
ATM, except paragons that can't get buffed, the only towers unable to receive alch buffs are :
-top/mid/bot path alchemist
-mid/bot path village
-top/mid/bot banana farms
-benjamin
-etienne
-psi
So every other hero, every other towers, can receive those OP buffs.
If it was only the monkey-based towers (those unable to DRINK the brews also being unable to get the buff, like mid path alch ability) it would be situations where you don't want alch buffs (so more balanced as right now it is definitely OP...?)
4-0-2 is still useful as, while it's weak, the acid pools do some extra damage
When i meme hard mode final round, i sell everything and get a 050 super monkey because it 1 shots zomgs
Dont use Alch on Dartling guns unless its perma brew! Dartlings CHURN through those attacks due to the super fast attack speed (unless its buckshot)
Me, who alch buffed 0-4-2 Dartlngs a couple times: e-excuse me?
Same with super
@@Rayan-West by buckshot pretty sure he meant upgrades above
5:06 or with bloom Trojan (Ben lvl 7 ability)
Imagine buying bloon master alchemist very early in a battles 2 run
oppont:TIME2DIE!!! *sends ZOMG
BMA: MY TIME HAS COME
I miss PMFC + Transformation
I laughed at "Pee Brew" ugh
man the bma is so op
my bma has more pops than degree 79 dart, degree 74 boomer , degree 76 ninja paragon combined! like it has more pops than vtsg
alch paragon might be overpowered as it deletes every moab class except bads
If you're in super late game, BMA isn't as good as it seems. It may have the most pops, but those are only on bloons that aren't bads, which is completely useless that late in. Past round 120, the only bloon that actually matters are bads, so being only useful for not bads is pointless.
bottom path legit competes with paragons in my runs for pops and costs like 1/100th the cost
That’s cool bro but I’m still just gonna get Rubber to Gold because it FEELS good. 👍🏽
Hey Hbomb
Is there a guide on how to beat infernal chimps I’m kinda having a hard time beating it
just look it up on yt
literally just search it on youtube bro
Hbomb released a guide :D You can look for it
Mortis hey it’s me Yass1n I didn’t know you play Bloons what a coincidence
I call the alch pain, I watch alot of naruto and I always thought the alchs middle path was cool. But I only realized that he was the six paths of pain a few weeks ago
I always thought this
I missed the stream : (
fun fact:
all the mid path monke (excluding modded ones) have abilitys.a
edit: also excluding cave monke
Thats not a fun fact
thats like common sense for the game
2:10 *p e e b r e w*
I always get alch. Its buff is just too good to pass up.
Who expects banana farms to be transformed into a monster?
i think the alch should have a rework that is all its upgrades (teirs 2-5) create a new poition instead of getting 2 poitions and 1 is very good
Bottom path alc is so broken it's just disgusting. Loads of income for 3rd and 4th tier, and 5th tier instakills zomgs without an ability, something only done by the navarch
The bottom path makes 💰💰💰💰
Stonks
Imo bma is the most important for late game, an insane tower though the earlier upgrades are neglible. P-brew is also good for late game, but earlier paths are actually really good yeah. But for me, middle path yes is underrated, but not good. True some it isn't as bad as some people think, it isn't really a good tower or strategy, kind of meh, and unstable concoction is alright but doesn't keep the 10% in the late game
The bottom path good cuz can't pop lead Bloon turn them into money or tier 5 is good because it can counter regrow
Once played back at x 0.75 I was able to digest everything you said and yes, the alchemist is super cool :) Thanks!
Lmao, ty
bottom path has the ability to have more pops than paragons and any sort of temple
and niinja sabo
pov: you use the top path it good!
where do you get where you can see all the paths and what they do
Instead of MIB, I use permabrew.
I have a question, if you use glue gunner to slow down the leads, then use 003 alchemist, could it potentially be utilized a lot more?
I think it attacks fast enough to attack non high level leads 90% of the time
Listen at 50% speed.
I actually realy like the bottom path of alchemist and does anyone seen that thye changed the 500 engineer name from sentry paragon to sentry champion?
everyone has seen by now
can you jungle drums homeland defense and overclock/ultraboost bma to transform more moabs to red bloons
I always wondered why 5-/-/ alchemist is always on tier list, but its only because of 4-/-/ fault
Lol, true. Stronger stimulant is why it's S tier
Because the tier 5 image represents the whole path in almost every tierlist.
Your thumbnails looks alot like ultra Jasons thumbnails
Is it a valid strat to just take 3 (or more) alches on 401 instead of one on perma, i mean its cheaper 🤔
