Before reading this page, please note that future updates may make this conception obsolete, but probably won't, because NK states that they won't make this conception. So the Bloonchipper remains as a history on BTD6 and will be put on this page.
The Bloonchipper is a tower which sucks up bloons and spits them after a while, but sucks (get it?) against Regrowth Bloons, but upgrades can make it better for shredding bloons (particularly Regrowth ones) and one of its last upgrade can also suck M.O.A.B.-class Bloons!
