This run has it all - early game that took way too long, got lucky at least a handful of times especially on 73, huge ability blunder on 90, almost threw by being greedy in the ultra late game... I was surprised how long it took me but then I saw SJB's run with only alchemists at 42 minutes runtime and I was like, yeah... That was super fun tho, should we do more of these?
This run was cool, but having the title be "ONLY Alchemists" is misleading. I know it wouldn't be possible with only alchemists, but personally I would have liked to see another solution, or a different title. Given the difficulty of this run as it was, I don't think it would have been possible using a sub for detection instead, but maybe if the challenge editor allowed you to remove camo on all bloons, that could have been interesting with ONLY alchemists.
@@dashingclasher bc it is. Unless it's an extrem challenge run it's pointless. We already know all towers can beat c.h.i.m.p.s. anyway. Noone watches this and genuinely wonders if they can.
I think I managed to reach round 80+ on logs with only base alchemists (and etienne for camo, but I put him in a spot that could hit as little as possible). Alchemists are surprisingly good when you spam them.
i think total transformation and plasma fanclub are unfortunately inferior to avatar of wrath in almost every way, at least for chimps. aow is always active, the poplusts you get before are better than tt and pmc at holding their own without the t5. pmc and tt might do slightly more damage when active, although im not even sure about that, aow is absolutely insane and was one of the best performing late game towers when isab supperbuffed it. all 3 t5s even cost the same, although aow earlier upgrades are cheaper and the druids take up less space than 20 darts
should have put the Rubber to Gold that turned into the BMA at the start of the track so it could one shot leads. I know it doesn't generate money on CHIMPS, but still, one shotting them would maximize its damage output and take some weight off the other alchs
With the money spent on the total transformation you'd have gotten more than 5 transforming tonics, right? Unless the t5 ability is stronger or lasts longer, I don't think its worth it
Idea for a new challenge: "Bloons TD6 Kaizo Edition" a combination of CHIMPS, Impoppable's extra-increased prices, Alternate Bloon Rounds, double HP MOABs*, Half Cash*, and the significant lack of breaks that happens in Apopalypse. * If the challenge becomes impossible you may turn ONE of these off. If it's still impossible after that, you may turn them both off. If it's still impossible after turning both off, you're worse at the game than I am.
@@Lukastad. Fun? Damn, I tried to make it as hard as possible without *technically* adding anything new to the game. I even (very briefly) considered adding Deflation to the mix, but I did not, because at that point there would not be any way of getting to round 100, let alone beating the BAD.
@@imagiking69420deflation and half cash don’t really mix well, since the main annoyance of half cash is reduced income, rather than a reduced starting cash
Alchemist should be a support monkey. AMD, Brew, Concoction, Total Transformation, Lead to Gold, Rubber to Gold, and BMA. All pretty much support upgrades and abilities.

Try doing Druid only (plus hero) to 140
Why not use geraldo for camo potions and other buffs like pickles
Bomb shooter
@@zurnar1000expanded challenge editor and round editor would be sick
I think in the future Geraldo out of track range for camo potions is a better fix than Eti so it doesn't influence the pops
It's very difficult as they can't hit purples really so it's not that big of a deal for certain monkeys that can't target a bloon type.
@@HelperishereAlchemists can hit purples, their potions are able to hit every single type of Bloon except camo.
@@thesaltgod not saying they don't. I know. He said in the video even. It's very very hard otherwise and pointless for a short video.
@@Helperisherebut what made you think that was the case

Alch on logs can solo until round 11 and at that point you have over 1500
When you say “Can we beat CHIMPS using only alchemists?” You actually mean “Can we beat CHIMPS using only 🍪Monster?”
You mean “Can we beat CHIMPS using only turning bloons to red monkey?”

My immediate thought, purple and camo
Alchemist's base attack can pop purple
Alch potion pops purples just fine though

Wait at the end did the unstable concoction on the zomgs get triggered by BMA turning them into reds?
when getting the bma your supposed to get the top path. It is able to get more bloons at once while the middle path does nothing.
2:30 submerged sub may be an option.
This is probably a good challenge to do after an update to see what the next prime bug is.
Thank you Ethan Reid for popping the bloons with only utility towers!
Imagine being 5 dollars short on a 43k purchase 😂
It happened once,
Can We Beat CHIMPS Using ONLY Etienne? (Bloons TD 6)
Wooo! The bartender got a video!
let me do some shenanagens is the new word for micro
I honestly thought it wouldnt be possible
No, no you can't.
It's not even possible on Monkey meadow on easy, or at least it wasn’t when I tried it.
Alternate Title: Can We Beat CHIMPS Using ONLY Etien and some alchamests? (Bloons TD 6)
So yeah the answer is no, since apparently you need a hero
good video
Why does this ("codeETHANREID") Alchemist make me think of "Yes, that is my umbrella"
Now this is a video I have to watch
You can't say "only alch" and use a hero and to add pops!
oh bro you're so good congrats
Short answer: No, camo exists so can't be ONLY alchemists.
The only time, when the Alchemist's middle path useful
can someone explain why he didnt buy acid pool
Cause it’s garbage
How!!?😂

I think the same, I wonder when they decide to do the paragon if they will consider moving it to the support category
Keep it as magic, let it be buffed by obyn
