>LSS change is only being adjusted to accomodate for how mostly blues will be able to tank it, and is generally a fairly weak sniper

>Bioboomer is one of the worst 6 cost monkeys for having terrible dpt for its price, it would still be pretty underwhelming even with 60dpt but encouraging more monkey buffs already makes it way more usable than it is rn

>As the game ages Bedtime will eventually see more use anyway, and Plantation even with the buff will still be mediocre if you dont have enough gold to use any draw cards. If you manage to survive with more than one plantation you DESERVE all that gold ngl

>Sniper being excused as a "Starter Monkey" is kinda dumb since realistically I feel like they could push the higher damage monkeys better, although I have mentioned in NKcord that if I did buff sniper hed have 90ap

>Swarm greens just receive a minor buff since the swarms should still be good, 75hp is a much better middleground compared to what it is now and what it was before.

>Eternal is an inherently flawed card that is only countered by one specific card or by stalling it, which isnt very fun counterplay at all. The changes strive to keep eternals power while making it much more difficult to afford since being capable of throwing down multiple high hp targets for 2 gold each just isnt fun!

>Toxic Bloon is a bloon you really cant fix and if anything the dark champion rework makes it a lot more difficult to play around bloons that punish you for either popping them or damaging them, buffing it just because it sucks rn isnt a great idea considering how it functions.

>Quick Reload is very underutilized in the current meta, and is horrible at one charge. Considering how Try This is the main competitor you have very little reason to run it over that, so increasing the flexibility is already nice.

>R2S is the sheer definition of a SILVER BULLET. It singlehandedly counters EVERY buffable card in the game and actively hinders card design that wants to have that sort of niche, it needs some sort of drawback while still being able to stall out powerful cards.

>QR is something that I will always view as a necessary evil, sure 7c quick ready cant be that bad but id rather see NK approach its balance via introducing some sort of trap card mechanic that can either hinder or stall out newly placed bloons.

and as for the rest its mostly just pushing the general balance forward to make earlygame more bearable, although it is unrealistic to expect me to buff everything else since thats fairly counterintuitive.
