Why Cowboy Is The Most IMPORTANT Tower In Roblox TDS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 มิ.ย. 2024
- Out of every tower in all of Roblox TDS, the Cowboy has got to be one of, if not the most, influential towers throughout the entire history of the game. We have a long story to tell as we break down what made Cowboy special in shaping himself and the game today.
Along the way, there have been many beneficial additions, removals, and reworks applied to Tower Defense Simulator that were caused by the likes of Cowboy. However, the evolution of Cowboy did not just bring sunshine and rainbows into the game. Lots of controversy also rose as well which caused conflict between the fanbase and the developers.
Now, Cowboy was not the only tower that created this much influence. Other towers such as Gladiator could be argued to have created a greater effect on this community as a whole. But, in this video, we will argue why Cowboy is considered the most important tower in Roblox TDS.

it's nice and cozy down here lol - เกม
i was og enough to see original badlands map, and beat it
No g
that was almost me, i saw it but came close to beating it
Same except I never beat it
back then i was lv
I just never beat it
I’m glad golden cowboy is in a position where it is more viable than farm, for the cost it definitely was needed.
Exactly. A money making tower that you need to beat badlandsII which is easily top three hardest modes AND painfully grind that 50k for the golden skin should definitely be leagues better than the money making tower you can get after playing a few rounds
@@Borisgotothenorris its second hardest mode behind hardcore
@@Cooler-wh4rg nah polluted wastelandsII is a little harder because of the absurd amount of health and basically everyone needs either accel or engineer to deal with it.
When cowboys were giving 200 at lv0

Man, i remember these old days, i loved the peak and enjoyed the maximum of cowboy and the John tower that i got with his first code, before going to shop for coins..❤
Same here! 🔥
I never really progressed in old tds, I just got the John tower, asked the randos where'd the swat vans come from, and then I left.
It's nice seeing you grow as a channel from 14 subs to 4.3k
Thanks for staying along the way! 👍
@@SunkenRealmOfficiali remember when u we’re at 312
from what i recall, you could get the cowboy from another map before it was soley locked to badlands, i actually remember getting it from the other map that was western themed, that being end of the line
yeah that map was way easier too, and you didn't have to beat it on insane mode (fallen)
Great video Sunken, loved the nostalgia!
However, I must point out that Polluted Wastelands 2 was the first map to add modifiers like mutation.
Yeah you’re right thanks for letting me know 👍
dude u should have 200k subs u have such high quality and informative videos. ur video is the only 20 minute video i have not paused in a long time
I appreciate you! Road to 200k subs! 💪
I got cowboy a few days before polluted and all of those new special game modes came out, and I’m so happy I did so, even though the new version was probably easier, but at least I didn’t have to worry about eye balling the new gamemode.
I remember getting cowboy at the Easter update and asking everyone to help me beat badlands lol
YOUR EDITING, AND THUMBNAIL IS AHEAD OF YOUR TIME MY GUY! definitely needs my sub for sure
Much appreciated! 👍
woah this video is so good editing is perfect i still am shocked how u have only 5k subs
I am OG enough to have never have beaten Badlands 2 whilst still having Golden Cowboy
The cowboy has been one of my favourite towers, especially when it was the first golden tower i got in 2020, the same year i joined.
I still remember beating it with randoms in end of the line with crook spam, good times
Time flies, I still remember beating wave 68 I even have the video on my channel because I was really happy
I remember beating the original badlands map and getting the kasodus cowoy from the code it was very nostalgic! My main tower was john. I just spammed it with it's ability since I didn't have any good tower back then. My friends carried me and now I carry my friends :)
YES bro they did kasodus and john dirty 🙅♂️
@@SunkenRealmOfficial So trueeee
I remember beating end of the line back in 2018-19 and I had no clue I got the cowboy until I got freezer.
great video man.
Thanks a bunch! 👌
the more recent g cowboy update made it so he shoots faster than a norma cowboy and also has to shoot more times for a money shot to compensate the very high fire rate
Bro golden cowboy was my farmer back then and im glad to see it rising up because i loved the tower so much
Sadly I thought I had to beat molten mode for cowboy but once I beat it I REALIZED I HAS TO DO FALLEN
there actually is a skin called "Redemption Cowboy" and im not sure if its meant to be a reference to rdr2 but it sure seems like it
Pretty sure my old acc was either before cowboy prime or during cowboys worst nerf (I remember the outlaw and old cowboy design, but I don't remember the old-old badlands, and only the reworks one)
i remember beating end of the line for cowboy...i miss that map
Video felt rushed in the Bl2 part. You forgot golden perks golden cowboy, how broken bl2 gc and nc was, their roles in solo hardcore, which is one of the most important things, the small nerfs gc keeps receiving, the huge nerf nc and gc got, the small buff gc got, and the current buffs gc and nc has. You also forgot Hardcore Testing Cowboy, which has the worst stats for cowboy history. And how golden cowboy before the cash drops was considered mid.
You also forgot the skin history too. You just forgot it exists until like bl2 then you only mentioned badlands cowboy and simply just said "3 new skins" Without showcasing what these new skins are
dang thats a lot
Please make more vids like this, like the history of a specific tower
Oh I am keeping them coming don’t worry 🥳
Bro just time traveled to showcase the stats and the cowboy 😭
he played legacy TDS
@@SomeOne-ph1gw or retro tower defense simulator
@@SomeOne-ph1gw based on the lobby, it’s retro TDS
@@SomeOne-ph1gwNo I time traveled and came back with the footage 😂
@@SunkenRealmOfficial time travel is prohibited by law, you're going to prision.
this video is soo good u deserve 50k
Man I'm old but old enough to continue seeing more TDs updates 👀
17:21 well RIP for the people who had to do it on fallen mode, I got it on molten
I just skipped getting cowboy in my era lol (and so I suffered to get him in 2023)
Real
Badlands 2 is gonna get a custom wave layout due to the challenge maps being added in the classic event, so after that it will definitely be the last hurrah to bl2 amd cowboy
honestly that's what is missing from the special gamemodes, they should be gamemodes on their own
That’s pretty interesting I can’t wait for them to add that! 💪
Man, I miss the cowboy having a gatling gun. Im pretty sure why they changed it was because the game was already chock full of low-damage high-firerate towers like Soldier, John, Minigunner, Turret, etc. And perhaps with the gatling gun, he looked too similar to Minigunner on the field.
Still, would be nice to get a skin someday that changes it back, I dont care if the animation of the gatling gun doesn't actually match his firerate lol.
I love contents like this so much, keep making video essays like this bro its awesome
Freezer ability spam made everything so trivial
Man i miss my old attack farms. But the new attack farms aint bad ngl. I just wish gold cowboy had the old lever action it used to have.
i got cowboy on an old man called “End of the Line” and boy have i never regretted it
I got cowboy like a few years ago, the old map, oh the good times..
I remember getting cowboy one day before the update I was starstruck seeing the leaks
Can you make a video about the platinum crate? I had 3 platinum skins. One of them was a plat crook boss, and the other 2 i forgot. I believe that instead of DMG boost, Firerate boost should be the boost instead.
Good idea 👀
Hmm, Before Bdl2 I remember when Golden Cowboy got a buff that allowed him to produce the cash at level 0 and maybe dps buff.
I remember when gold cb got released and by the easter event it was everywhere and i was SO fed up of seeing it, til i got it. Then i used it to death!
this is a great vid underated!
Thanks a bunch! 💪
Wasnt PW2 the first gamemode using the modifiers? using both the nuclear and mutations modifier (its the reason its called that).
Yeah you’re right thanks for letting me know 👌
this gave me the motavation to attempt the tds classic event again
kinda sad that i cant get money from mystery enemies anymore with cowboy since the second i get a mystery lead boss then its basically raining money, but now i gotta manually change the targeting on some of the cowboys so now the other cowboys are going to have to miss out on getting cash while the other ones get nothing and i end up not getting enough cash for certain upgrades to deal with later waves, man i hate reasonably justified balances for a certain tower to be good at what its supposed to do to then become worse at what its intended purpose of use is :(
nice vid:)
Thank you! 👍
bro i randomly joined people in the wanted dead update map and non of them had the high dps towers you mentioned and we won like chads 💀
Was waiting for you to mention the insane buff to g Cowboys cash shot😢
When i got the old cowboy back when,before the rework,its quite useless but after the rework,its my goto early game
Cowboy receiving a ton of changes meanwhile turret and pursuit crying on the corner because they only received stat reworks and pursuit havent gotten a single skin
i remember getting carried through end of the line when i first started
Good to know im mot the only one who uses cowboy more than farm.
Remember when the coin it had the same ability as gladiator does now, I remember it and I would spam that all the time
I miss the old cowboy, the gatling gun spam was so funny back then.
I was old enough to see the first badlands map,I just couldn’t beat it, now badlands 2, I finally beat it
Yeah, it was so much harder back then lol
I remember getting cowboy on the other map where you could get cowboy but sadly I forgot the name
Was it the end of the line?
Kinda sad that you didn't mention it's impact on solo hardcore, as it was included in the first ever loadout it was beatable with (might have been doable in hardcore beta, idk)
the stories the og badlands map could tell oh my god the trauma of beating it for the first time then crying trying to get it for my friends
I remember me flipping out my chair when I got it 😂
yo you remember the golden statue mode it was the most and badass boss I've ever seen and it was almost impossible to beat
Kasodus and og gold cosboy skin was my favorite back then.
Underrated video tbh
i beat both end of the line and badlands i’ve been playing this game since day 1
Best video about the Cowboy
I had to get him through end of the line, and oh boy were those ice dudes tough
I remember those day I beat badlands with a bunch of snipers and other people carrying me
I played TDS ever since it started but I never knew there were events so I never got any event tower in the og days but it was fun to play as the parrot party dancing in lobbies was better than the games itself
How did you not know? They used announce them everywhere.
good vid 👍
Thank you! 👍
First time I played this game was in 2020 for egg hunt and the second time I played it was in 2024 for The Hunt….
oh and btw, the current cowboy doesn't have cash shot anymore, it gives cash per burst of 6 {12 at level 4+}
G cowboy actually got a change, he is now 600 cash so you CAN place him round one!
I remember when the Kasodus skin actually resembled Kasodus
" Commando pov be like: why im still here, just to suffer "
It will get a rework tho
fr, they did commando dirty. it deserves better.
@@kaiotrem358 if commando got rework they made gamepass for it they said
@@kaiotrem358 is like 10% commando will get rework devs idk to do with it
This is why its my fav tower
hey sunken I remember meeting you when you had 750 subs it's nice to see you make awesome content man
Thanks for staying along man I appreciate it! 🙏
@@SunkenRealmOfficial your welcome sunken I'm happy to be apart of your journey
3:12 I remember seeing this map when playing TDS... And beating it...
But not this EXACT map, the remake with just basically improved the graphics of it.
10:56 and the time im talking about is THIS
Bro, I remember when I started watching because of the justharrison raid and u had like 400 subs
A lot has changed huh 🥹
@@SunkenRealmOfficial yeah, keep going dude and I know that one day you’ll be even more successful 😃
i just miss the old days when im using paintballer to beat old badlands
Took me many time to try beat the og one but still fail despite how difficult due to lane spawn for the enemy, total confused and got it when it got massive change to badlands we know now.
1:02 Yo that’s my channels video! Love to see it
I gotchu bro 🔥
I remember being carried back in 2021 I had like demo scout and sniper (and a few others) and I got it!
You forgot about the pvp update which makes cowboy more needed for it
3:18 it reminds me a ship map i played today. it has 4 stars and idk the map name
I will never forget spamming prime golden cowboy with the 5 dmg on fallen 💔
I remember getting cowboy when it was released. I miss the shotgun golden skin
You mean the golden skin that looked like the redemption skin but golden?
@@Nazispace yeah
@@FrostialSamTT it was cool
i beat og badlands on molten, i love seeing people complain how hard badlands 2 is. (I also have quickdraw lol)
I remember that he had a some kind of a fast firing machine gun on max level and a ability
Bring back the machine gun! ✊
I was OG enough to see original badlands, but never beated it
i joined in late 2020 and got a chance to use the cowboy in it prime(i never max it and instead leave it at lv4)
The feeling of beating the old badlands map was so nice tbh
Yeah, it was much more difficult than the new badlands.
Awesome bideo Awesome Nodtalgia
People gotten cowboy with the end of the line instead of badlands back then since it was easier
Played TDS in 2019, and got the cowboy from old badlands. All u had to do wast beat molten with double enemies
Golden cowboy finally back in older pride
I miss the old cowboy with to gold mini gun and I spent hours using gladiator .
i remember the 2 badlands map before the final one
i didn't play OG tds, i was still grinding tower battles
edit: at 3:06 i somehow remember that map
the scout: a weak tower with a golden skin that turns it into a tower so dangerous that not even the molten boss wants to mess with him.
the cowboy: world's strongest scout with a much more dangerous golden skin
Can you cover the history of TDS event towers and the clash of them being overpowered to straight up useless.
I will keep this in mind 👀
I have seen cowboy with a gatling gun back then
Yeah I remember playing badlands and having two bosses the left side was always so DAMN harder because everyone always defended the right. I still have the cowboy tower to this day
Exactly brooo that left side be giving problems 😬
