Yeah but it's kinda bullshit if you don't have the cobra, the enemy does, you've got a solid defence but they're still beating the shit out of you and there's nothing you can do about it dontcha think?
Attrition is too OP. The enemy will be freaking out, losing 2 lives every 15 seconds. Scared about being forced to lose. Confused, like "WHAT?! HOW DID I LOSE LIVES?! NO BLOONS WENT THROUGH!!!"
I love this tower. I have it and even when I don't lose it but am against someone who does, there are ways to easily counter the COBRA. (such as quick, early rushes at the start of the game so attrition isn't very helpful). The one thing I don't like is how the battle energy actually effects how fast attrition gets lives (or at least, to me it appears that it does).
I think the main problem with the COBRA aside from attrition is the bloon adjustment. The COBRA is unbelievably OP at just 2/x. Why? *BLOON ADJUSTMENT STACKS* If you place like 10 - 20 COBRAs, every bloon gets modified. And sometimes the same bloon can be modified 2 - 3 times! This can lead to regrow ceramics on level 15 - 17. It's ridiculous.
Waddledee789123 Cobra is easy to beat.All you need to do is a regrow rainbow rush at 13 before the opponent gets a lot of cobras because they have horrible popping power.
Finish Him! helps the Bloon Boost, which makes your Bloons temporarily more powerful. Monkey Stim helps the Tower Boost, which makes your towers temporarily more powerful. Completely different. If it affected ability cooldowns, it would pretty much make 4th tier Villages worthless.
I got the Cobra the first day and in my opinion it is Overpowered. You can just get a bunch in the mid game and get them to 2-2 and just watch them lose lives. I love it. And also put them all on strong
Chris are you serious?! both teir 3 is for the battle energy. first path is for the boost that makes your towers shoot faster and the secound is almost as you said: it makes the bloon boost cooldown (the bloon boost is the one witch costs 1 battle energy and maks the bloons you your opponents side move faster). Neither of those upgrades makes the tower active abilites cooldown fast.
Hey superjonmbombo, I just wanted to let you know that you are one of my favorite youtubers out there, and that you do make very good videos:) You probably won't see this, but I just thought you should know:):)
You should try 4th tier engineers for the bloon trap to get money from that, farms, and the agent for the +80 each round. You will be swimming in money.
Thomas Bankerice so basically if I ever do play this again, I'm gonna be demolished by people who have it cause I'm so low leveled and I am ALWAYS paired with way better players, so I usually will lose anyway so lose lose for me xD
Marioman5551 Get 10 2/2 COBRAs and you lose 20L/15S. Umm, combine that with bloon rushes and other people who DONT have COBRA and it's too unfair. No one will download unless they are willing to pay 5 dollars to an already broken game. Yeeaaaahhh I'm sticking to BTD4, BTD5, and BSM2.
If they're gonna add an OP tower they should add an OP bloon to counter it. Something like a Beacon bloon. What ever destroys it causes 10/5 of its weakness bloons to pop out. If there is none It would spawn 5 zebras. And it would appear around the time an average player would get attrition without income boosts or banana farms. Booya!
It only costs 5k medallions to unlock, and when you unlock it, you get all upgrades! yay! Also, did he notice that the effects stack and that 3/x is for the tower boost battle energy upgrade?
This tower I think is honestly broken. This makes late game a FOR SURE win with Attrition, and people that have Offensive Push, they have to get things 1 round early, which most people don't know, so RROD is extreme with the COBRA, NK please change.
If this comes to battles flash (the better version IMO) attrition will single handily DESTROY KOTH Example : Someone's picks a map like Mondrian where rushes are needed vs good players One person picks cobra one person doesn't at r22 the player with cobra drops like three 0-2 COBRAS and forces the other player to rush and the COBRA player just has to defend while stealing lifes so even with camo exploits you still get the lives back GG NK
btdb has far more. submarines, engineers, battle energy stuff...... btd5 has sandbox mode for testing.... not much, but at least something i'm missing in bmc. oh and agents iirc?
My only question is - can Attrition actually finish off your lives completely therefor beating your opponent even if 0 bloons actually escaped? Or is it similar to a lot of "bleed/DOT" effects where it will bring you to 1 life but never lower than that??? Cuz if its the 1st one, then yes its broken. It'd be a cheap way of guaranteeing a victory simply because you have a COBRA and your opponent does not. AMAZING VIDEO BTW MEOW
Did u guys know u can put 5 submarines in the little lake? The first match he played u can put 5 just put 2 on the very very edge then put 2 more on both sides really close to both of the other ones then put one in middle
Guys the company knows what to do the company know that cobra is so powerfull and also knows that any player in the game cant get it except with real money and the company cares about money only it dosent care you like it or not
This Tower is nice to have, unless you get an Opponent who Spams like a bitch. At that point you have to make a tough decision. Rush him or Slowly die, every COBRA Monkey takes -2 from you, so imagine someone spamming 15+ COBRA Monkeys. Not only does he have a SUPER Huge Advantage over you, now you gotta defend and Worry more about everything else..
Attrition sounds horribly, brokenly OP. With 1 cobra it will eliminate an opponent within the minute if he's put down to 8 lives. With multiple cobras you only need to survive about 10 minutes before the attrition kills them.
***** i know i know but until round 8 it will go on forever heck if you have like 100 corbas with life steal and you like get 100 hp back den thats gona be O.P
I think I've played with SeanB147. He wasted all of his road spikes and battle energy, so I rushed him with camo leads (my main strategy against noobs because they don't have camo lead popping power)
your opponent could micro with a 0/4 cobra. if he did that he would not only defened the BFB like with a 2/4 boat but got a cheap rush agients you, preventing you from sending more moabs and kill you (you spend aco for that BFB and he could use them almost for free)
i dont understand why you didnt upgrade your COBRA's more. if you had that bloon augmentor ability on each cobra he would have dealt with lots of camos and regens and even higher ranked bloons
Ok, first i was upset, because the flash version gets no attention, but honestly this is the biggest shit i have ever seen. Nothing else to say about that. Especially this life steal thing is just absolutely awful. This whole tower doesnt fit AT ALL into the game, well maybe it fits into the mobile version, this game actually doesnt even deserve the name BTDB. Sorry nk, but u really messed it up this time.
I agree 100%. As crazy as this might sound, I feel like this is a sign that NK is about to go out of business soon. This is like their last-ditch effort to get some short-term revenue, at the cost of basically ruining the game. At least, I can't come up with any other explanation of why they would want to make this a blatantly pay2win game.
Are you guys kidding?! Do you have any idea how successful Ninja Kiwi is?! They are an extremely profitable team and there are still going strong! Mobile gets more updates because it has a better revenue than flash. They even said they draw more attention to mobile because since it has more revenue, they can make more money off it. They aren't money hungry, but a business is a business and they have to make profit somehow.
Welp. Guess that's it for me, then. I am not wasting $5 on a special tower that is HORRIBLY OP. Looks like Ninja Kiwi pulled a Naughty Dog and made a free-to-play game into a pay-to-win game. If you pay the 5 bucks for this, you're basically going to win each and every match. Skill factor taken away :/
Jbob L. you hasve to use it right those people dont know what theier doing and to TSGG, i think it shouldnt exist since you dont deserve a huge advantage over the luck of getting the cobra
I feel that SJB's opponent didn't play well... well, those are the kinds of opponent you get that pay-to-win or jailbreak... He srsly could have sold stuff to get the 2/4 cobra ability to send the bfbs to SJB...
Dear NK
How to fix cobra.
1.Make attrition only add lives, not take them.
Done!
Yeah, Attrition is the reason I play on PC where that bullshit doesn't happen.
Yuma Tsukumo
Attrition is not made to beat hackers, it's made to kill the enemy.
If there is a hacker just leave and report him.
Yeah but it's kinda bullshit if you don't have the cobra, the enemy does, you've got a solid defence but they're still beating the shit out of you and there's nothing you can do about it dontcha think?
It's easy to beat COBRA, rush rush and rush
Am I the only one who was screaming "SUBMERGE AND SUPPORT! SUBMERGE AND SUPOOORRRRTTTT!!!"?
Oh one more thing I am the Schnarf of the Schnarfs! I am TOP SCHNARF!
no
Oh yes!
Thanks I was just demonstrating and I'll keep using COBRA but tomorrow's episode is a remake of The Classic Strategy 3 in BTD Battles.
Checked out your videos, awesome! U have earned yourself a sub.
Thanks man, I appreciate it... Have fun learning new skills for battles and BTD5 :D
Two years later, and cobra still forms some of the meta. Fingers crossed for 4.4.
Attrition is too OP.
The enemy will be freaking out, losing 2 lives every 15 seconds.
Scared about being forced to lose.
Confused, like "WHAT?! HOW DID I LOSE LIVES?! NO BLOONS WENT THROUGH!!!"
It might be OP. But even if it is, then NO SHIT. because it cost 5000 medals. And you have 10-20% of getting it from bonus. SO... Thats why its so OP.
iRainb0ws Growtopia or $5
I'm a sexy friend? Woah what an honor... Great video Chris

Thanks for doing this Chris.
Chris you should do the ALS ice bucket challenge!
2/4 C.O.B.R.A. Is so OP. If this was added to the flash version, it would change King of the Hill Forever...
That's what you call an disiple of battle energy (^_^) dat pun!
Chris are you serious?! both teir 3 is for the battle energy. first path is for the boost that makes your towers shoot faster and the secound is almost as you said: it makes the bloon boost cooldown (the bloon boost is the one witch costs 1 battle energy and maks the bloons you your opponents side move faster).

And dying to camos 😜
pshhhh, you can get like 4 semen shooters
This better be limited time because I'm not playing battles till this is gone
I know what you mean. Anyone with $5 to spend on btdb will most likely to win against a normal player. The cobra is to OP.
Thomas Bankerice so basically if I ever do play this again, I'm gonna be demolished by people who have it cause I'm so low leveled and I am ALWAYS paired with way better players, so I usually will lose anyway so lose lose for me xD
Well, I'd rather face that than a hacker. At least I know I have a chance to win
Marioman5551 Get 10 2/2 COBRAs and you lose 20L/15S. Umm, combine that with bloon rushes and other people who DONT have COBRA and it's too unfair. No one will download unless they are willing to pay 5 dollars to an already broken game. Yeeaaaahhh I'm sticking to BTD4, BTD5, and BSM2.
cobra actually sucks. its very bad popping power. ive beaten all of the people that use cobra and when i get cobra as a lucky tower i lose
Well, it looks like I'm done playing BTDB mobile, with an op tower like that at that cost, it's no longer fair.
If they're gonna add an OP tower they should add an OP bloon to counter it. Something like a Beacon bloon. What ever destroys it causes 10/5 of its weakness bloons to pop out. If there is none It would spawn 5 zebras. And it would appear around the time an average player would get attrition without income boosts or banana farms. Booya!
The 3rd tier for both path has to do with battle energy :P
Chris, Chris,Chris its called the super funky man club
With Attrition.. You can kill your opponent by Round 75 without Bloon Sending... Damn so cool
You can kill them by round 20 i think..
I mean with 1 Attrition you automatically beat your opponent by Round 75
Tbh im glad they didnt add this shit to flash.
If they did koth would've been ruined. Either that or they would have to ban it from koth.
ShadowShroob what is koth

predicament - Noun, A difficult, unpleasant, or embarrassing situation.
Kid Kirby k
It only costs 5k medallions to unlock, and when you unlock it, you get all upgrades! yay!
Also, did he notice that the effects stack and that 3/x is for the tower boost battle energy upgrade?
This tower I think is honestly broken. This makes late game a FOR SURE win with Attrition, and people that have Offensive Push, they have to get things 1 round early, which most people don't know, so RROD is extreme with the COBRA, NK please change.
Is RROD the strategy where you launch a shitload of rainbows at the opponent on round 13?
RROD = Regrow Rush of Doom I believe, and I think if you get 3 4-x cobras you can get it on round 10. Not sure because I don't use it :P
Otto K
Now BTD battles mobile is even more interesting!
If this comes to battles flash (the better version IMO) attrition will single handily DESTROY KOTH
Example : Someone's picks a map like Mondrian where rushes are needed vs good players
One person picks cobra one person doesn't at r22 the player with cobra drops like three 0-2 COBRAS and forces the other player to rush and the COBRA player just has to defend while stealing lifes so even with camo exploits you still get the lives back GG NK
BMC has DDT's, BTDB has the Cobra, and the original BTD5 has...nothing
Special agents :D
btdb has far more. submarines, engineers, battle energy stuff...... btd5 has sandbox mode for testing.... not much, but at least something i'm missing in bmc. oh and agents iirc?
***** That's only the mobile version.
71jmonkey yeah, but he also talked about the mobile version as the cobra is only in the mobile version too :P
That's in btdb
The first guy you battled had a mod on android so that he had billions of battle energy and that's why he used it so much
Nope. I counted 10 battle energy road spikes, which is the maximum per match.
The Monkey Stim only applies to the Battle Energy Tower Boost.
This is more broken than flash having that free play play mode glitch -.-
Dude, it's even more broken than hacking
IT DID??? WHEN???
lel, i know xP
I can't figure out how SeanB147 managed to take more lives with attrition
Yes!!! Get 4 of them 1-2 and you win.
My only question is - can Attrition actually finish off your lives completely therefor beating your opponent even if 0 bloons actually escaped? Or is it similar to a lot of "bleed/DOT" effects where it will bring you to 1 life but never lower than that??? Cuz if its the 1st one, then yes its broken. It'd be a cheap way of guaranteeing a victory simply because you have a COBRA and your opponent does not. AMAZING VIDEO BTW MEOW
Woop notha video good job brosaski :D
Did u guys know u can put 5 submarines in the little lake? The first match he played u can put 5 just put 2 on the very very edge then put 2 more on both sides really close to both of the other ones then put one in middle
i was just eating pineapples and IT BURNED... like a cobra bited my tongue... that explains why they added pineapples that EXPLODE and cobras...
Using battle energy on your towers increases the life stealer
Cobra plus lifesteal equals death
Battles energy* not lifesteal ugh
I can't edit my comment by the way
I'm watching on an ipad
AWSOME CHANNEL CHRIS
Guys the company knows what to do the company know that cobra is so powerfull and also knows that any player in the game cant get it except with real money and the company cares about money only it dosent care you like it or not
Ya know if they rush u with a bfn or below u can send the bfb right back at them?
The cobra is to OP. Spam 1-2 cobras and you win. It's BS :p
This Tower is nice to have, unless you get an Opponent who Spams like a bitch. At that point you have to make a tough decision. Rush him or Slowly die, every COBRA Monkey takes -2 from you, so imagine someone spamming 15+ COBRA Monkeys. Not only does he have a SUPER Huge Advantage over you, now you gotta defend and Worry more about everything else..
I bet Sean was a medallion and energy hacker..
Means if somone send
BFB u can ues the ability and send the bfb to there side when he sended
Attrition sounds horribly, brokenly OP.
With 1 cobra it will eliminate an opponent within the minute if he's put down to 8 lives.
With multiple cobras you only need to survive about 10 minutes before the attrition kills them.
***** It is I have a friend who got it in random and won he sent only a few bloons
Agreed let the people who spend money win!
I think a good way to balance it would be to only allowed to have 1 or 2 of them on your side at once.
Maby attritions affect could just not stack
NinjaKiwiGaming Pay-to-wins are unfair and broken.
Am I the only one who likes the cobras??
+Jose Trevino I like them too cuase they can steal lifes that means you can beat a hacker slowy...;D
*****
But then you wouldnt be killeble you would be sealing from his inf lifes XD so the round would never end lawlllllll
*****
i know i know but until round 8 it will go on forever heck if you have like 100 corbas with life steal and you like get 100 hp back den thats gona be O.P
+invisble cookie moabs kill instently
Maria Amico
o shit. but if you can defend it then the game will go on forever and eva
Awesome video but I could've taken you down at round 13 w/ only three towers
I think I've played with SeanB147. He wasted all of his road spikes and battle energy, so I rushed him with camo leads (my main strategy against noobs because they don't have camo lead popping power)
+Swordmaster Brendan except snipers
I beat a cobra user when used 2 Cobras and 1 buccaneer by spamming white balloons XD
Tower boost means tower battle energy
does offensive push stack if you have multiple?
8:25 7 battle energy
woah over powered but nice video! :D
wheres the soundtrack for this game? I love the music!
I got the C.O.B.R.A twice, and lost both times :(
your opponent could micro with a 0/4 cobra. if he did that he would not only defened the BFB like with a 2/4 boat but got a cheap rush agients you, preventing you from sending more moabs and kill you (you spend aco for that BFB and he could use them almost for free)
i dont understand why you didnt upgrade your COBRA's more. if you had that bloon augmentor ability on each cobra he would have dealt with lots of camos and regens and even higher ranked bloons
how to win late game: build 75 0-2 cobras wait 15 secs -> WIN!
Not enough room :P
15:37 Umm..... Juggernauts now have super monkey fan club????
There is a way to glitch them
Ye just get a 2,0 dart boy and activate the ability then upgrade the dart boy to 4.0
10:26 Dart Monkey?!?!?!!?!!?!?!
What device do you play on?
I just played a modder who decided he didn't want to have limited lives, but disconnected lol.
Only thing I don't like about COBRAs is that Attrition doesn't seem to work in practice mode.
That's mainly because you steal/leech the opposing player's life.
Also the adding lives on defense can't work because it's shut down on practice so it's kind of useless.
ripe
4/2 might make people think ur hacker XD sending bloons early.
Cobra reminds me of James bond
:O
COBRA!
The title is correct
how did you get that tower agent?
I wish they can add cobra to btd5 it will be cool
no, most of its abilities are made to effect the opponent
Ok, first i was upset, because the flash version gets no attention, but honestly this is the biggest shit i have ever seen. Nothing else to say about that. Especially this life steal thing is just absolutely awful. This whole tower doesnt fit AT ALL into the game, well maybe it fits into the mobile version, this game actually doesnt even deserve the name BTDB.
Sorry nk, but u really messed it up this time.
Agreed.
I agree 100%. As crazy as this might sound, I feel like this is a sign that NK is about to go out of business soon. This is like their last-ditch effort to get some short-term revenue, at the cost of basically ruining the game. At least, I can't come up with any other explanation of why they would want to make this a blatantly pay2win game.
Are you guys kidding?! Do you have any idea how successful Ninja Kiwi is?! They are an extremely profitable team and there are still going strong! Mobile gets more updates because it has a better revenue than flash. They even said they draw more attention to mobile because since it has more revenue, they can make more money off it. They aren't money hungry, but a business is a business and they have to make profit somehow.
I hate the fact that I have to hate this update. It would have been so easy to balance!
Yep...but it's a way they get the big $
Uhh I can get the corbra but my kindle fire won't let me update. HELP anyone?
Cobruh :)
i hate the cobra only for attack less for defense
BTDB Mobile E87- Best Shit Ever?! Cobra Action
Super OP
Welp. Guess that's it for me, then. I am not wasting $5 on a special tower that is HORRIBLY OP. Looks like Ninja Kiwi pulled a Naughty Dog and made a free-to-play game into a pay-to-win game. If you pay the 5 bucks for this, you're basically going to win each and every match. Skill factor taken away :/
It actually kinda sucks
It's not the end of the world just use 5 bucks not a very big deal
Not exactly I've killed so many people that had corbra and it was way to easy.
Jbob L. you hasve to use it right those people dont know what theier doing
and to TSGG, i think it shouldnt exist since you dont deserve a huge advantage over the luck of getting the cobra
Tyler Platt Well said, friend. You get a cookie and a +1 :)
It's only attrition if both players have the 0/2 cobra. Otherwise it is simply BS.
I feel that SJB's opponent didn't play well... well, those are the kinds of opponent you get that pay-to-win or jailbreak...
He srsly could have sold stuff to get the 2/4 cobra ability to send the bfbs to SJB...
tower boost = battle energy boost
YAY!
I have 1136 battlescore.good?
Doesn't atrittion take two lives and add two at the same time
I want all these new towers in the normal btd 5 :/ accept for this one
Like he dont have submarine and helicopters
we are not sexy
+Gabe Hermann He/she? Are you hi right now?
Omg thx you so much
how is your health going back up?
Attrition
Attriction
that much gg *-*
How do u record ur screen??
i think the opponent was a hacker
I don't really see why people say this is terribly OP...
Attrition+ice stall=o.0
wow i need this!
If you use a cobra in a match the whole match is instantly ruined. -.-
for next game, kill the oponent using only attrition
when i use the cobras i spam 1-0's
he didnt camo rush you it was the combra turing the into camos
By the way i sent Chris all the details he read
