- “This device sucks in bloons to shred them and throws the remains back on the path.”
- — In-Game Description
Bloon-Shredder (previously called Bloonchipper) is a tower that made its debut in BTD5. It sucks bloons in, shreds a layer, and throws it back on the track. Its first path makes it suck in bigger and stronger bloons. Its second path is based on faster and more efficient suction. Its third path is based on its effects on the bloons.
Appearance[]
It has changed a lot from the Bloonchipper. It has a shape similar to the Monkey Drone. It is blue with a nozzle in the middle. It has two blades coming out of each side. It has two wheels attached on either side and another wheel attached to the front like the one on Bloonchipper. It has a cylinder on the back with two pipes connecting it.
