I like the camera for the challenge videos but for black border I like seeing the whole screen! Makes it feel very clean and your voiceovers always keep me entertained on their own :-)) Love your content
The Trojan can target something in Ben's line of sight, but if that bloon pops before it gets to it, it can retarget. When it retargets, it can target things within line of sight of itself, regardless of what Ben can see. Resulting in trojaning things not in Ben's LoS.
your black boarder videos are recently my top 1 videos to fall asleep to lol your voice is really soothing and the game most of the time has mostly relaxing audio
Super excited to be here for a current video. You've been my favorite background at work, for sleeping to, and even watching while playing Bloons myself 😂
Elite Sniper 0-5-2 is so good for impoppable, gets lead popping and with an Alch takes care of 63, and more than makes it money by 90 so you can get late game super carries; and was my mid game carry for many Black Border runs (including erosion); and its buff to Maim MOAB is nice. The druid is NOT slower, you just see the animation and the next round goes if you have autostart on 38:10 Ben already gives 150 per round thus you spent 129 to make another 100; thus you "lost" 29 for buying that upgrade 39:50 the bloons alternate sides thus from Right, then from Left; so if there are an odd number the right side has more of them (example round 64; the right side has 3 MOABs then 2 FMOABs; which the left side has 3 MOABs then just 1 FMOAB) but if the was an odd number THEN a another odd number of higher tier the left side will get the extra higher tier (while the right side gets an extra lower tier) that is what happened on 74 with the Odd number of MOABs then odd number of BFBs. 41:10 you wasted ZERO time on round 78 the rest of the round hadn't come out when the camos were destroyed; you can see that the left side is still attacking the whole time. How far the bloons go is irrelevent to time, its time after the last bloon entered that matters. 56:00 Monkey town is base 50% more but there is a MK that makes it 60% more (and yes the game keeps track of money to the nearest hundredth of a dollar, but only displays to the nearest integer) 58:30 keep in mind after round 80 Ben *LOSES* you money b/c his trojans don't make what you would by popping + his syphon + his end of cash vs what you make by popping everything normally 59:50 they reduced never miss price a patch or 2 ago so yeah you aren't halucinating; they added to price of center path to offset 1:03:50 both attacks (bombs and darts) of the Flying Fortess have normal damage type (i.e. damage everything), thus MIB does nothing for it. Its the Spectre that needs MIB as its damage types are Sharp and Explosive 1:07:10 yes that is a great strategy Premeptive is a great DDT skip
Actually Psi is very good hero, like being able to one shot everything but BAD is already very good. But even if you don't have lv20 to be able to one shot ZOMGs and DDTs, it still does well since you always get enough lvl to one shot bfbs, and when you use lv10 it just deletes 98 from existence. But yeah true, not a speedrunning hero, since it takes time to kill stuff Btw 1:05:45 that's because of retry last round chimps change, so even if you lose and go to home screen it keeps ur progress as if u hit retry last rouns button, idk why it works like this but ok...
Honestly if you want the face cam, be comfortable and be darker. Not a big add or minus for me, but if it makes you way more comfortable given the blinding lights do what’s best for you to keep putting out this quality content 👍
Yo man, at 38:21 when you bought the Benjamin upgrade for 130, you just lost the money because Benjamin actually checks if he leveled up before giving you the end of round cash so he would have just leveled up naturally at the end of the round and given you 250.
Trojan can seek around obstacles I think, but on Dark Castle there is no way around the ledge, so it can't do anything, but on this map it can seek around the hedges.
This is one of my favorite maps. I'm trying to plan a CHIMPS strategy, thinking a Spirit of the Forest in the middle with Etienne providing camo would be disgustingly OP.
Favorite sniper pathing, it highly depends on what it is for, if i am using it as a MOAB killer/staller: 420 as the shrapnel gets the effect of the top path, for bloon killing, 204, but that one needs a village. For camo lead, I honestly prefer a ninja and an alchemist, and that is the opening i keep on using. I am kinda hoping that you do Carved or the other Halloween maps soon, but I also deffo think i'd be more fitting to save them for Spooktober. I kinda hope that you do Hero's maps with their hero, eg. Adora's Temple with Adora and Pat's Pond with Pat.
I personally love the webcam so it feels as if I'm actually seeing a person play it and it brings a sense of realism. Putting a face behind the voice. That's my opinion anyway.
Try adding extra fun and use one hero per map and cannot have same hero for next 2 maps unless lose 2 time on same mode. Also, in the beginning you mentioned, that you will play more like the new player, so maybe as small challenges you would go through all heroes quests before using hero, since new player would learn mechanics from there?
the trojan can go around obsticals to get to the track, but if ben is totally cut off from the track he cant shoot it to the track, then the trojan will redirect along the track to anything it can 'see' on dark castly ben has NO path to the track whereas on balance he can still see part of the track to shoot at and then have the trojan redirect
Honestly I mostly used sauda because her fast attack could target things in the circle and then I got a bunch of T5’s and placed them in available spots, I forgot about planes and helicopters, and I put the snipers and dartling gunners where you put Benjamin on easy. (other heroes I used were Corvus & Ettiene)A tip in later game would be to place glue gunners and get them bottom path. But I love the strategy, keep up the good work!
Sorry for not saying that earlier, I’ve just been a bit busy, I’ve so far also black bordered monkey meadow and gold bordered Tree Stump since I commented first
My strategy was get sauda in the middle then get dart monkey 4 2 get aclmest 4-2 get village 4-2 get 5-2 dart monkey and get 0-2-5 wizard and get 5-2 sniper monkey and 4-2 sniper monkey and get one more 4-2 achlmest minkey
I like the camera as i feel like it adds to the interactivity with these videos. Though I get why people prefer the full screen visible. What would be the possibility of uploading one with and one without the camera, but the one without the camera would be unlisted? That way viewers can get the best of both worlds?
I think the cam makes it moe entertaining but its blocking the game too much. theres lots of empty space left and right of you in the camera. u can crop and fit yourself further right on the screen. and probably move the timer above/below the camera.
Fun fact. Since this map has like jo spots for a village I got ettiene for global camo but I used to think he was overrated until I got him for this map. Now he is a 100% necessary for impopable and chimps

Feels like one of those niche pieces of knowledge that are perfect for one of those challenge browser things where there's only 1 solution
your black boarder videos are recently my top 1 videos to fall asleep to lol

56:00 Monkey town is base 50% more but there is a MK that makes it 60% more (and yes the game keeps track of money to the nearest hundredth of a dollar, but only displays to the nearest integer)
58:30 keep in mind after round 80 Ben *LOSES* you money b/c his trojans don't make what you would by popping + his syphon + his end of cash vs what you make by popping everything normally
59:50 they reduced never miss price a patch or 2 ago so yeah you aren't halucinating; they added to price of center path to offset
1:03:50 both attacks (bombs and darts) of the Flying Fortess have normal damage type (i.e. damage everything), thus MIB does nothing for it. Its the Spectre that needs MIB as its damage types are Sharp and Explosive

Try #ouch or Quad. Would love to see how precision maps like that can be speed run
Dabloon, can you PLEASE do Adora’s temple? It seems like an interesting map especially for speedrunning!
Funnily enough I literally just black bordered this map and then you uploaded this video
I like the webcam.. it feels weird without it when you’re going back and forth from the blackborder to a challenge video for example
I finally got caught up with all the black border videos!! Keep ‘em coming!!!
I prefer the web cam, I have to catch up I thought you stopped the series so glad you ahve a few maps for me to watch!
I've been enjoying Psi for my own black borders, they make r63 and the entire 80s trivial, among other things
Honestly if you want the face cam, be comfortable and be darker. Not a big add or minus for me, but if it makes you way more comfortable given the blinding lights do what’s best for you to keep putting out this quality content 👍
I like the webcam. Makes it feel like you’re with us😃
Really liking the facecam! Makes the video have more personality in my opinion

Trojan can seek around obstacles I think, but on Dark Castle there is no way around the ledge, so it can't do anything, but on this map it can seek around the hedges.
Just saying, in deflation, you couldve done both snipers on 0-2-4 with a 3-0-1 alch at least and ben
This is one of my favorite maps. I'm trying to plan a CHIMPS strategy, thinking a Spirit of the Forest in the middle with Etienne providing camo would be disgustingly OP.
that would work for sure!
i don’t hate the camera, I think a green screen would help out a bit. Love the videos though keep it up!

I would vote for camera off and timer on top right corner, where upgrade button is.
I love the webcam
0-5-2 sniper actually gets considerably more pops than 0-2-5 sniper, especially if you alch + village buff it it can solo for a long time

Try dark castle it will be a breez from how far you have come
@Dabloon can you please do geared. I know you hate it but I think it’s a pretty fun map
I really like the cam on the speedrun, but maybe have it a bit smaller?
how much smaller?
1:15:38 when showing table in the end, especially now, could distinguish/color/mark the new line ;)
The legend came back to black borders 🎉
Benja is pretty good for a map like this not just because of his trojan but his lvl 10 actually Make bloons spawn with one less layer than normal
hey Dabloon, i'm wounding if you could do the map #ouch next
I don't mess with the cam it draws my attention away from the game too much. And your cam is too bright its harder to fall asleep to
what a weird comment
it isnt?@@LeeOnTH-cam
Just put your phone on it’s face
@@LeeOnTH-camhe literally asked on our opinion on having his cam on bruh.
I totally get that, if I do another with facecam I'll drop the overhead lights so its not as daylight bright!
Great video!
hi dabloon! i love your videos!
Wait I black bordered this about 5 days ago :D

You should move the timer so we can see the abilities
My strategy was get sauda in the middle then get dart monkey 4 2 get aclmest 4-2 get village 4-2 get 5-2 dart monkey and get 0-2-5 wizard and get 5-2 sniper monkey and 4-2 sniper monkey and get one more 4-2 achlmest minkey
New sub 🎉
Yo! I wanna give you a challenge especially cuz im troubled on it, i think you should do erosion on chimps
I like the facecam, but I also don't want your eyes to bleed out after every video.
Started the series in January and finally caught up 😅 I am wondering if the naming of towers is still happening?
Damn true, I completely forgot he was doing it.
Ig he forgot about it , stopped on glue or sniper I think
Do kartsndarts
You should black border off the coast :)
Webcam disturbed my sleepiness, pls don't.
Watching the snipper sssppiinnnnn

Hey i dont know if you will see this but for me you discord no longer works it seems inactive
Can you black border flooded valley next
what’s your friend code on btd 6??
I think the cam makes it moe entertaining but its blocking the game too much. theres lots of empty space left and right of you in the camera. u can crop and fit yourself further right on the screen. and probably move the timer above/below the camera.
Can you please black border the flooded valley map
I miss the puns in the thumbnail :(
LOL sorry! They were getting to unbalanced

I never use shrapnel with the bottom path
True if u do hello regrow farm

Keep webcam, feels more natural since most of your other content has it.
Please do logs

duh bloiom
i personally dislike webcam because it always makes the video feel cluttered and takes the attention away from the "important" things
No webcam plz

Shut up
