After-thoughts: For the record, this whole video was edited during a vacation AND without a computer mouse (who needs one when you have a touchpad!) Anyways, here’s the serious stuff! Brawler - Such an amazing tower for such low gem cost, we heavily recommend you purchase this gem tower first. After that, it’s up to you to go for either Accelerator or Engineer, but Engineer pairs insanely well with Brawler! Keep as is in the video. Accelerator - Still an amazing tower, despite being outshined by Brawler and Engineer (mainly due to those two towers not being able to be stunned). Deals crazy amounts of damage, but consider either going for this tower, or saving for Engineer. Keep as is in the video, but we’d like to point out that it’s more of a Low S Tier, and during video development, was almost put into the A Tier. However, this tower still holds up insanely well. Engineer - Easily the best tower due to it being cheaper than Accelerator in-round, deals more damage, sentries cannot get stunned past Level 4, and you can fit in more troop space due to the limit of 6 Engineers per player. Nothing else needs to be said, just be reminded of its high unlock price (and considered the most difficult tower to obtain!). Necromancer - IMPORTANT, I (Seb) forgot you cannot purchase this tower with gems anymore. So, no need to worry about grinding this tower if you don’t already have it! Anyways, this tower can be considered B Tier IF used in the right contexts; an example would be to use it as a support tower, not as main damage. It only starts to deal serious damage at max level. Regardless, keep as is in the video. Still a highly unique tower, though! We also wanted to apologize for the delay on this video, as mentioned, this was edited on a vacation (and without the computer mouse, took a lot longer), but we will be coming back with a lot more videos! Stay tuned and subscribe, we are grateful for you all, have a wonderful day!
Necromancer will always be available on October or on November if the Halloween event got released earlier gems btw even if there was no Halloween event it will always be available
Necromancer can definitely do a lot better in the right contexts, but it was not worth its gem cost, when it was able to be purchased with gems. We hope you understand, have a great day!
Brawler technically can hit flying enemies at levels 4 and 5, as he’s able to damage flying enemies with his ability. 2:53 This is not necessarily true, yes it may lose some time, but the sentry’s destruction is not guaranteed here depending on the attack’s strength.
I loved the video and agree with your rankings, definetly a well made video imp, only complain i have is the stat boxes like the one on 1:05 are hard to read, maybe a darker background with white text would help or even black outlines on text, either way good job on the video!
Yes, unfortunately I (Seb) didn’t download the fonts on my laptop that I would prefer to use; I had to edit this during vacation. However, next videos will be properly made! Thanks for commenting, have a fantastic day!
only october 2023 players know that when necromancer got released when he summons skeletons and there are enemies pass the necromancer the skeletons go back instead of in front
YOOOO I found this amazing channel again! amazing youtube homepage finally for once a good recommendation i also understood the reference of the accelerator
I would prefer accelerator more than any hc tower when it comes on events because usually the enemies has high amount of hp and they coming in horde so i dont think lower lv brawler and engi can handle them
I can agree, Accelerator deals a lot of damage to high-health enemies in quick speeds. However, this can be assuming Accelerator at higher levels, Engineer and Brawler (especially with its knockback) could probably hold its own against these enemies. Regardless, I understand your point. Have a nice day!
For me I would also rate engineer as a S+ tier. She can be used to early - late game and has lead penetration, hidden and flying detection. The only downside I can see is the 4,500 gems price, microing, and it can't fullyy utilized commander and merc base but she doesn't need it cause of her sentries. DJ is the only support tower needed for engi and maybe some melt defense towers
Necromancer deserves to be on A or B tier, if you play your cards well you can deal some serious damage, the tower itself at max deals more than 400 DPS, not counting the units
Yes, our after-thoughts comment gives a more accurate telling of those tower, as our opinions change over time. Thanks for commenting, have a wonderful day!
Yes, it takes a while to obtain, but pays off extremely well after you purchase it. If you don’t have it already, we wish you luck! Have a wonderful day!
Normally scraps aren’t a limiting factor of Engineer, and remember, we’re ranking towers on universal use; it may be behind in Badlands II on certain occasions, but can outshine Accelerator during boss fights, as its sentries cannot be killed, unless stuns are spammed. We hope you understand, have a great day!
,,hello police, someone put necromancer in C tier" necromancer is better for crowd control and as a nuke on a high health enemy, 30k damage at once on a major boss is really good also necro is meant to be used against normal enemies and not major bosses
Necromancer is better in certain contexts, but was not worth 1,800 gems back when it was purchasable with gems. You would be better off buying Brawler for less (if it existed back then), or saving for Accelerator. Necromancer starts to fall behind once the enemies get past its gravestone site. Hope this helps you understand, have a nice day!
Engineer, although being nearly twice as expensive, has a lot of pros against Accelerator. However, Accelerator is still quite useful to go for after Brawler. Hope you understand, have a great day!
I feel like accel with commander abbilty is better than engi with commander ability bc engis turrets thing cant gte affected by the firerate buff and the engis turret is basically engis 80% dmg
That is a good point! But, Accelerator can get stunned, which can be a big problem in the special game modes. Medic can help Accelerator in these situations, but when you’re playing with limited players (or single player), Medic can take up an important spot, where other towers could be. Accelerator still is great at destroying high-health enemies in quick speeds! Have a great day!
We tried to word it to exclude Engineer’s sentries from the DPS, because the Engineer alone doesn’t deal more than Accelerator; However, with its sentries, it does. Hope this helps, have a wonderful day, we hope to see you around!
It has been out since 2020, but each Hardcore Tower is really overpowered, and gems take a long time to get. Getting all 3 current-obtainable Hardcore Towers would most likely take nearly 3 weeks of constant grinding to get them all. Have a great day!

Idk you but what about nuke of necromancer? also it can attack multi enemy at max which is good for swarm like bro for me he is A tier because of those 2 things @@TheVarietyNetwork1
@@muris8126If you look at our after-thoughts comment, we do leave more information on the towers that may have been excluded. Remember, a lot of Necromancer’s DPS is not constant, which causes it to fall behind other towers. Its low placement limit does not help it either. We hope you understand, have a great day!
Haven't watched the video, gonna guess Accel, Engi and Brawler are all in S rank, and Necro gonna be in B rank. Convince me otherwise. EDIT: Necro is C tier apparently, womp womp. And also, players should get accel first, not brawler. Most events and hard game modes like Polluted require accel, brawler is just less universally used in all game modes, especially events.
A good portion is based on How To Earn Gems quickly, in case players struggle once they unlock Hardcore Mode. We hope you understand, have a wonderful day!
It is 100% less than what can be expected in live performance, but we didn’t add its gravestones and skeletons DPS due to the inconsistency of those skeletons in a round (they are not permanent or constant DPS).
