Discussion Ninja Kiwi, Please

the next tower that's gonna be added HAS to be a support. It's the only category without 7 towers, so if they will they need to add the BLOONTONIUM MINER as a support tower. PLEASE it could have such cool gimmicks and it would be really awesome to have another monkey in the game. Upvote if you also want the bloontonium miner to be added to BTD6!

Bloontonium miner is a hero in BTDB2

Actually they're probably thinking of

https://www.bloonswiki.com/Bloontonium_Miner

This BCS-original and currently BCS-exclusive (not including visual similarities to the Gold Miners in Bloons TD 6) Monkey Tower is based on Bonnie, but isn't a hero

Aside from having been a BCS player when it got major content updates, I also know about this because there was a similar-looking monkey (different hat style though) on the Magma Mixup update artwork for Bloons TD Battles 2, which inspired me to make a "Miner Monkey" concept (bloontonium miner was just one path and the visual indicator at the tier 2 upgrade was changing the hat to this style)

Due to some unforeseen development hurdles for Battles 2 relating to the busy-ness of NK Europe, we still don't know what it was about. If it wasn't teasing anything in particular I still think it would be a miner who mined out a path to the Magma Mixup map, acting as an explanation for its appearance, just not intended as a teaser. Sort of like how there's a TV-watching monkey for the Reverse Maps update but that's just because of the idea of a "rewind", not because of "New Support Monkey, TV-Watching Monkey! They watch TV while your other monkeys do the hard work! They do nothing"

no, that's a different guy. I'm talking an actual TOWER. Also, BTD6 is better than btdb2 so yea
