They nerf accel for what good reason and honestly I hope it's just for balancing the game not for making he useful towers useless in the future I hope they don't do that (well kinda since they nerf the commander)I really hope they buff accel again it's just not the same anymore since it's getting outclassed by mini engi having the huge damage nerf was kind of ok but I really hope they adjust the firerate instead since it fires so slow in the low levels, just to make up for the damage nerf and cost ratio
Being honest, engineer needs to get its price (on gems) lowered to 3.500 gems. For the time you take to get engineer playing hardcore OR just it can get more placement limit (8) as like accel.
@@Negawatttttttt11 Even if its cheaper, its needs to be worth of her price. She is very overpriced, thats why i am saying for giving her 1 more buff or just lowering her price on gems.
@@Negawatttttttt11the only downsides are that the turrets can die to bosses, she needs scrap to rebuild them, the sentries cant be buffed and It has a lower placement limit
Engi never needed the buff, She was much easier to use than accelerator, and it still takes 2 stomps to kill her sentries which if you're fighting every other boss except nuclear monster, Is overpowered, Engineer never needed the buff. Now it just makes accelerator useless
If you think about it, engi is probably better for solo. Because commander is not a requirement for engi like for accel, you don't need to bring it which can let you bring another dps tower.
Engineer is now used in updated Lucille v1, which kinds of put a smile on my face (although Lucille itself isn't that great anymore due to commander nerf making the strat much more expensive and inconsistent now)
you forgot to mention that engis sentries now have hidden detection starting at level 5 its crazy it took them 2 years to give engi sentries hidden detection when it shouldve had it from the beginning
In terms of potential DPS (the max dps a tower can do with all available buffs, upgrades, etc.), sure, accelerator is better, however: Accelerator has a lot of flaws that the Engineer just, doesn't. Accelerator suffers from stuns, even more so from most towers like Minigunner because of the chargeup mechanic, meaning stuns, even with medic, can cost a lot of DPS, while Engineer counteracts this by having shields on her sentries past level 5 (iirc) and having Sentry health meaning it can still deal with back-to-back stuns, meaning Engineer still retains a lot of DPS after stuns. Engineer is also a LOT more usable, as it can be used for EG defense with cheap placement costs and early upgrades, not to mention having all 3 detections, being hidden, lead, and flying. It's only on the tower itself (except for hd as sentries get it on 5+), but it does enough DPS that it doesn't really matter that much as lead and flying enemies are few and far between. Engineer also has splash damage, which is only on max, but still splash damage nonetheless, which accel is completely lacking. Accelerator is very expensive on a lot of its upgrades and on placement, strictly making it only usable for lategame and most midgame DPS. Overcharge also makes buffs (from what i've heard) about 33% less effective as it'll make Accelerator overcharge faster. Sure, engi suffers from the same thing, only having 82 of it's massive 402 single tower unbuffed DPS buffed, but this can actually be considered an advantage. Let's do some math real quick. 8 max accelerators have an unbuffed combined dps of 2,272, while 6 max engineers have an unbuffed combined DPS of 2,412, even after the recent nerf which (i think) had not happened yet at the time of your comment, which is higher than accel's unbuffed potential DPS. This means that Engineer relies less on buff towers than accel to have good performance, which is an advantage as you don't need to spend as much to have peak performance, not to mention engi having higher single tower DPS. Speaking of spending, let's talk about Cost Efficiency, which is probably the most important stat when it comes to deciding how good a tower is. Incase you don't know what CE (short for cost efficiency) is, it's just a ratio between a tower's DPS and cost. Engineer costs 53.7k to max a single tower, whilst Accelerator costs 54.9k to max a single one, and this is already in engi's favor because 53.7k is 1.2k cheaper than 54.9k. A method to decide a tower's CE is the one Corso uses in all of his statistics videos, being DPS per $1k Simple math, just divide a tower's total cost by 1k, then a tower's DPS by that number, and you have it. Let's do this for accel first. (computing for single tower unbuffed CE, we wont use decimals for the most part btw) 54,900 / 1k is 54.9 then divide accel's 284 dps by 54.9 and you get 5.1 Now for engineer, divide 53.7k by 1,000 and you get 53.7 and divide Engineer's 402 dps by 53.7 and the result is 7.4 which is 36.8% better than accel's CE of 5.1 Now, let's do compute CE for buffed potential DPS With the values you provided, Engineer, with a potential DPS of 2832 divided by the cost of all the engineers and buffs, being 1 max commander (24,150) and 1 max mercenary base (73,900), the buffs cost 98,050 Adding that to the cost of 6 max engis, being 322200 we get 420250 Then, divide 420250 by 1k, which is 420.25 and divide 2832 by 420.25 6 fully buffed engineers have a CE of 6.7 A difference of 0.7, so let's see how big that difference is for Accelerator. Grabbing numbers from you, me, the wiki, and a calculator: 8 max accels cost 439,200 cash, added to the buffs that cost 98,050 resulting in 537250 8 max accels do 3585 DPS After dividing the total cost by 1k, which is now 537.25 and dividing 3585 by 537.25 we get 6.6 I was surprised by how close it was, but engi's potential dps CE is still 0.1 higher, and after all the yipyap i've done here. I rest my case. Summary: Engineer Pros: (each rated 1-5, 1 is a light pro and not as meaningful, 5 is a strong pro and is a decently big advantage over accel) -All 3 detections (4) -Usable EG (5) -Higher CE in general (3.5) -Splash Damage (better than none, 2 because its only on max) -Mostly stunproof (4.5) Average Pro Rating - 3.8 Engineer Cons: (same deal with pro rating, but 1 is not a big con, 5 is a big con) -All 3 detections are only on Engineer herself, HD for sentries is 5+ (3.5) -Not very affected by buffs (4.5) -Needs to deal damage to build sentries, which makes engi stop attacking (4) -Sentries can expire, meaning engi will at some point stop attacking to rebuild sentries (2.5) Average Con Rating - 3.6 Accelerator Cons: -Heavily affected by stuns, whether medic is present or not (4.5) -Only partially affected by buffs (3) -Unusable EG (2.5, it was kinda hard to decide between 2.5 or 3) -Cannot instantly start attacking enemies, hindering spawnkill potential and making it vulnerable to fast enemies unless chargeup is already completed by a slower one coming first (3.5) -Locks onto a single enemy until they die or leave accel's range (3.75) Average Con Rating - 3.4 Accelerator Pros: Average Pro Rating - Near 0(this is mostly because pros and cons are decided based on the whole game as of the current update, not the argument of engi vs accel, even if it was based on that there really wouldn't be much, in fact there would probably be extra cons and not much more pros if that were the case, I really can't think of any general advantages you have for using the accelerator that aren't extremely generic, like "really good dps" or just straight up done better by engineer, like "really good dps", i guess.) Yeah, I know. It's weird that I like to do stuff like this, I'm probably just gonna post it as a comment so that my over 1.5 hours of work don't go to waste just like that, even though I plagiarized most of it This was just meant to prove a point (err from a reply i made.....)
I love how it's almost back to how it was when it first released, at least in terms of sentry progression. It feels useful once again like it did back in the duck hunt.
What a journey this engineer went through. First it shows up powerful, then it gets nerfed badly, then it gets buffed decently, and then it gets a bigger buff. Amazing.
It had to happen at one point since the engi being more expensive (in hc currency) than accel but being worse didnt make sense, its nice they made this change however its gonna be hard for the ppl who bought accel to farm the gems for engi now lol
@@yellowball1948 Yeah it's surpisingly painless to get just by using lucille strat on hc, and even using suicide strat, an engi still takes less time to get then 1 Golden crate.
@@yellowball1948 yeah, I guess if u want to neglect basic necessities for a couple of days such as eating, sleeping etc. aswell as having nerves of steel by doing the same goddamn thing over and over again for a token that is fully irrelevant in life then yes On the other hand, you could idk Spam the tds Twitter to buff back commander so accel is the number 1 again.
When accelerator got nerfed in the violent night event, she got nerfed as well in compensation. Now that accelerator is pretty much back to his overpowered self, its about damn time they buff engineer as well to match accelerstor as a hardcore tower
Thank you for this wonderful information that I'm going to use and I'm going to Farm HC until my fingers are bleeding and my eyes are burning and my lungs are decapitated
I think it’s very impressive that Corso literally calculates *every* number or stat of a tower. He talks about the dps, the total dps, the value, everything. Corso deserves some respect for all this calculating.
The fact that this cost so much gems is actually worth the buff the only thing that i hate about engi that its sentries cant get buff which sucks tbh i have an idea about angi having an ability that boost sentries or rebuild sentries without scraps that would be amazing im not saying that it needs another buff im just saying what is in my mind
i do see engi being better due to stun immunity fly detection and only need DJ for buff so its quite better but engi's sentry doesnt have a hidden detection so its balanced
One thing TDS does better then TDX is stealth, in TDX there is so much stealth and even the boss can go stealth, so all your towers need to see stealth or you need to buy towers and micro them to reveal stealth.
I think whenever engineer is busy, it can rebuild sentry in 1 second if the scrap meter is full it means if engineer is busy so always place engineer front side and accel backside 😂
well the sentries dying really aren’t much of an issue now that engie has a faster firerate, also if it’s really that big of an issue then you could bring medic since the shields’ uptime depends on whether or not the engie is stunned. All you need to do is to heal engie and the shields will immediately return and plus, most of the time there won’t be mutliple enemies at once stunning and the sentries still have some health to tank a bit of stun damage.
mind you: engi has lead from level 0, and hidden + flying from lvl 2, so not only is it good for the main modes, its also good for the special modes bcuz of high dmg + early hidden (espically hardcore bcuz of flying and lead)
Good video. I just started my Yt td Carrer as my sister moved out because she caused us a lot of stress and i wasn't motivated to do anything, i hope you have a wonderful day corso.
4:16 what? So it can’t be buffed by anything only the engineer can get buffed, yet that excludes commander and mercenary based (military base?)?? So in other words the only two things that can boost everything is commander and the mercenary base? What does this even mean they’re the only thing that can buff troops other than DJ buffing range? Why not just say dj can’t buff range then, unless you meant to say including instead of excluding because then you would’ve said that even those 2 towers still don’t buff sentries? I’m so confused
Honestly, I think while engi is a bit better than accel, the amount of gems is not worth it. Maybe if it costed 3k or 3.5k, but not 4.5 as that implies that it's almost 2x better than accel, when really, it's not. Also, if smth gets out of range, you shouldn't really quickly sell and replace further along the path as it takes a while to rebuild it's sentrys. However, I'm not saying it's bad, it's better than accel in most cases, I just think it's still not worth it. Still, at least it finally got a good buff and I'll probably use it alot more. Thanks for buffing it tds 👍
ngl this is good for soloing fallen now. If your doing crossroads or other maps with accel, pyro and supports the fallen boss will be left about like 30 k. But with engi it’s kills it now. Ngl pretty good buff.
Unrelated to the video but i have a idea for brawler some people might disagree but I think it’s good. (The brawler tower should be able to cost less to upgrade when there’s an engineer tower placed down since in the trailer engineer built him i guess.)
GUYSSS when you go to the game and go to the end of the update log you will see numbers for next update . hacker tower confirm? in the disscord for the update road it said brawler tower and new tower??? soo the new tower is hacker its probbaly a coins one cause brawler was supposly coins but now gem and hacker was gem tower
Hidden detection applies to lvl 5 and 6 sentries with the new buff and lead detection to the sentries with their rockets on max lvl but not with their bullets
Brawler: Danm Thats Sad Accelerator: shut up you just got here Hacker:..... Mecha Base:..... War Machine: I think im gonna be the next hardcore tower ne- Hacker: nah I'm the next
Honestly this just removes a need for the commander bc it doesn’t make the tower much better, and on top of that, the commander recently got a nerf to pretty much everything but the new ability so it’s not nearly as useful to help towers.
didnt notice that the sentries now get hidden detection after level 5, my bad. That’s a helpful change!!

Thanks for the info. Keep up the good work.
how you watch the video? You said this at 1 minute after the video but the video is 6 minutes
I’m so happy that the engineer beats the accelerator in every way except for leads which sentries only hit with the max level exploding missiles
Engineer has lead detection ever since level 2 or 3.
Took long enough
But the accel doesn't see flying lead balloons which the tower itself the engineer can hit them and the engineer can hit leads but not its sentries

A method to decide a tower's CE is the one Corso uses in all of his statistics videos, being DPS per $1k
Simple math, just divide a tower's total cost by 1k, then a tower's DPS by that number, and you have it.
Let's do this for accel first. (computing for single tower unbuffed CE, we wont use decimals for the most part btw)
54,900 / 1k is 54.9 then divide accel's 284 dps by 54.9 and you get 5.1

Now, let's do compute CE for buffed potential DPS
With the values you provided, Engineer, with a potential DPS of 2832 divided by the cost of all the engineers and buffs, being 1 max commander (24,150) and 1 max mercenary base (73,900), the buffs cost 98,050
Adding that to the cost of 6 max engis, being 322200 we get 420250
Then, divide 420250 by 1k, which is 420.25
and divide 2832 by 420.25
6 fully buffed engineers have a CE of 6.7
A difference of 0.7, so let's see how big that difference is for Accelerator.
Grabbing numbers from you, me, the wiki, and a calculator:
8 max accels cost 439,200 cash, added to the buffs that cost 98,050 resulting in 537250
8 max accels do 3585 DPS
After dividing the total cost by 1k, which is now 537.25
and dividing 3585 by 537.25
we get 6.6
I was surprised by how close it was, but engi's potential dps CE is still 0.1 higher, and after all the yipyap i've done here.
I rest my case.
Summary:
Engineer Pros:
(each rated 1-5, 1 is a light pro and not as meaningful, 5 is a strong pro and is a decently big advantage over accel)
-All 3 detections (4)
-Usable EG (5)
-Higher CE in general (3.5)
-Splash Damage (better than none, 2 because its only on max)
-Mostly stunproof (4.5)
Average Pro Rating - 3.8
Engineer Cons:
(same deal with pro rating, but 1 is not a big con, 5 is a big con)
-All 3 detections are only on Engineer herself, HD for sentries is 5+ (3.5)
-Not very affected by buffs (4.5)
-Needs to deal damage to build sentries, which makes engi stop attacking (4)
-Sentries can expire, meaning engi will at some point stop attacking to rebuild sentries (2.5)
Average Con Rating - 3.6
Accelerator Cons:
-Heavily affected by stuns, whether medic is present or not (4.5)
-Only partially affected by buffs (3)
-Unusable EG (2.5, it was kinda hard to decide between 2.5 or 3)
-Cannot instantly start attacking enemies, hindering spawnkill potential and making it vulnerable to fast enemies unless chargeup is already completed by a slower one coming first (3.5)
-Locks onto a single enemy until they die or leave accel's range (3.75)

A lógica é que a engi seja realmente mais forte do que o accel, pois ela tem o custo mais alto.
well the sentries dying really aren’t much of an issue now that engie has a faster firerate, also if it’s really that big of an issue then you could bring medic since the shields’ uptime depends on whether or not the engie is stunned. All you need to do is to heal engie and the shields will immediately return and plus, most of the time there won’t be mutliple enemies at once stunning and the sentries still have some health to tank a bit of stun damage.
I would say that since accel got nerfed and engineer buff is good they are both at siting as the best dps towers of TDS
mind you: engi has lead from level 0, and hidden + flying from lvl 2, so not only is it good for the main modes, its also good for the special modes bcuz of high dmg + early hidden (espically hardcore bcuz of flying and lead)
Good video. I just started my Yt td Carrer as my sister moved out because she caused us a lot of stress and i wasn't motivated to do anything, i hope you have a wonderful day corso.
Hi Corso. I wanted to tell you that the sentries have hidden detection too now. So yeah engi is very op now.
the tower wich you have to grind for the most is finally good? they shouldve done this earlier, for 4.5k gems it finally lives up to that price
4:16 what? So it can’t be buffed by anything only the engineer can get buffed, yet that excludes commander and mercenary based (military base?)?? So in other words the only two things that can boost everything is commander and the mercenary base? What does this even mean they’re the only thing that can buff troops other than DJ buffing range? Why not just say dj can’t buff range then, unless you meant to say including instead of excluding because then you would’ve said that even those 2 towers still don’t buff sentries? I’m so confused
I think he meant to say “includes”
1 Engineer without buff is still higher dps that 1 accel with mercenary and commander
can you do a video on the ice witch accelerator
if you use it the accelerator doesent attack
it just stands there doing nothing
Ye it happen to me too
Hay corso are you going to do a review of the buff of the mercenary base?
Honestly, I think while engi is a bit better than accel, the amount of gems is not worth it. Maybe if it costed 3k or 3.5k, but not 4.5 as that implies that it's almost 2x better than accel, when really, it's not. Also, if smth gets out of range, you shouldn't really quickly sell and replace further along the path as it takes a while to rebuild it's sentrys.
However, I'm not saying it's bad, it's better than accel in most cases, I just think it's still not worth it. Still, at least it finally got a good buff and I'll probably use it alot more. Thanks for buffing it tds 👍
ngl this is good for soloing fallen now. If your doing crossroads or other maps with accel, pyro and supports the fallen boss will be left about like 30 k. But with engi it’s kills it now. Ngl pretty good buff.
Level 5 and 6 turrets now have hd!!!(he forgot about that)
this guy is the master of ranking and comparing tds towers
CORSO you forgot something lvl 5 engi get hidden dection on the sentries
Technically, war machine sentries have lead detection cause they have rockets. Now they are just missing flying detection
J
So an example of what might destroy the sentries easily is the void reaver, its stomp hits 4 times rapidly
1:43 Minigun sentries have hd now right?
Yea
But it’s dps total got nerf to 400 dps
When i used only hc tower no necro i had wngi brawler aceel i place engi for mid and saw the buff and i knew it was going to be OP
Finally I've been waiting for Corso to do this
Unrelated to the video but i have a idea for brawler some people might disagree but I think it’s good.
(The brawler tower should be able to cost less to upgrade when there’s an engineer tower placed down since in the trailer engineer built him i guess.)
Am I the only one that thought engineer was actually better than accelerators before the buff?
Now if this was TDX
John would’ve nerfed it alot
did you forget the sentries get hidden detection (lvl5+)
Do you think that engineer rn is better than enginner pre 31st of march nerf
GUYSSS when you go to the game and go to the end of the update log you will see numbers for next update . hacker tower confirm? in the disscord for the update road it said brawler tower and new tower???
soo the new tower is hacker its probbaly a coins one cause brawler was supposly coins but now gem and hacker was gem tower
I’m glad we’re getting towers that rival the accelerator now
The fact that he kept saying "his" makes me feel funni
Ikr!
i never realised that engineers sentries at level 5-6 had hidden detection?
Hidden detection applies to lvl 5 and 6 sentries with the new buff and lead detection to the sentries with their rockets on max lvl but not with their bullets
0:18 "Firerate from 1508 to 1258"😭😭 So now the engi fires every 20 minutes instead of every 25 minutes?😭😭🙏🙏
Fun fact: with this buff, Engineer can now solo Easy mode with 1 placement, making it an effortless grind.
Fun fact lvl 4-5-6 engi on early update the senty gain hd detect
No only level 5 and 6 get hidden
Bro I got so excited when you joined my game (my name was nooby) pleasure to meet you
i like how tds is becoming like btd6, and how every tower has equal-ish potential
they really wanna make us painfully grind hardcore
Brawler: Danm Thats Sad
Accelerator: shut up you just got here
Hacker:.....
Mecha Base:.....
War Machine: I think im gonna be the next hardcore tower ne-
Hacker: nah I'm the next
My boy accel has finally been dethroned bro had a good run (still good tower)
I think TDS devs are now forcing us to use engineer than accelerator :/ with rebalances and buffing engineer
Power creep at its finest.
Honestly this just removes a need for the commander bc it doesn’t make the tower much better, and on top of that, the commander recently got a nerf to pretty much everything but the new ability so it’s not nearly as useful to help towers.
Btw engi has better targetting, if someone reaching end of her radius, she tries to kill it, while accel targetting only one guy
They need to give accelerator some type of niche, considering now it isn't as useful in solos or quads.
Just noticed that this might be the first video where he put red text on the price increase instead of the usual green
To make it more op, just use engi for early defend and use accel, good isn't it?
I wish i had the engineer
Solo strat :
Engineer brawler farm commander Dj
Have fun with this :D
thats my strat too xd
Accelerator’s biggest flaw is continuously attacking a strong enemy and letting other faster enemies slip through
finally made the most expensive tower worth its price, took its time but im glad i got her first lmao
seeing as how long it takes to grind engineer, it deserves to be very good
Bro forgot to mention that Engineer lvl 5 and 6 sentry has got hd
