Hi everyone! Welcome to the blog post for July 13th, 2018.
This is going to be my very first blog post. So I feel a small introduction is necessary.
Hi, I’m Tarn.
Let’s be honest, no one can fill Aarons shoes. He’s done so much for the community and was a huge part of NK for such a long time. So to honor him, this blogs competition is going to be...
Competition:
Design the Aaron Hero.
Following the same hero ruleset from BTD 6 your submission will be made up of the following:
Hero Title
Hero description
Level 3 Skill
Level 10 Skill
Level 20 Skill / buff
I’ll be rewarding the best submissions with a special Aaronling forum badge.
Rules:
One entry per person
Terms apply
Entries must be in before 2 pm, Friday 20th of July (New Zealand time)
Include the forum name you would like the badge for. 1 reward per person.
What’s going on this week?
What's been happening here at Ninja Kiwi? Well for starters we have been working hard getting Bloons TD 6's first content update ready. You'll most likely hear about it next week so keep an eye out on social media. The SAS 4 flash 30 fix has been put on hold as we continue work on the next BTD 6 update. It’s proving rather difficult. Thank you all for your continued support and patience while we figure this out :)
The NK EU BATTD development is going better than ever, if you're a fan of Adventure Time, make sure you're all up to date on the latest episodes!

Questions from the comments:
Thanks for everything you have done for ninja kiwi Aaron, the blog post was absolutely lit, and probably one of the reasons I'm still here. I look forward to whoever makes the next blog post and for them, I have a question. what did Aaron look like?
Imagine a God coming down to earth and spending what we perceive as lifetimes, creating and crafting a human so perfect and glorious that there could only be one. That creation is what we call Aaron and to answer your question he looked like an Angel.
Is Rohan the new CM now or is he still QA?
Rohan is still QA, he’s been doing an epic job reaching out to the community. He even re-organized the forums late last night! The current CM’s are Sam, Sav and myself.
That's Sad that you are leaving:( I hope you have a good time and I hope the people in NK will do as much as you because YOU DID A LOT FOR EVERYONE:) I hope they fix SAS 4 soon because I really enjoyed that game and I cant play it anymore.
He truly did! He taught me everything I know :)
The SAS 4 flash 30 fix has been put on hold as we continue work on the next BTD 6 update. It’s proving rather difficult. Thank you all for your continued support and patience while we figure this out :)
Will there be another btd battles youtuber tournament?
Maybe, sometime.
In BTD6, where did the Kylie boomerang get it’s name?
"Kylie" is one of the Aboriginal words for the hunting stick used in warfare and for hunting bloons.
Feel free to leave comments or questions down below, I’ll also be hanging around the forums, Discord, and Reddit if you want to get in touch.
Tarn (Not Aaron) Tarn

Aaron - The Bearded Buffer $700----------------------------------------- https://imgur.com/a/604gx57------------------------------------------------ Normally you just place down your monkeys and pay them their money. Nothing to it. But Aaron cares more about your defense force than that. He may not be the one who pops the most bloons, but everyone agrees that everything is better with him.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attacks by throwing a large dart at the same rate as a 0/0/0 alchemist, which pierces 6 bloons and attempts to hug the track loosely, while it can turn fast enough to follow curved tracks like Tree Stump and Underground it can’t do 90 degree turns. Monkey towers in his Obyn-sized range are able to bypass bloon immunities 20% of the time.---------------------------------------------------Lv. 3 - Community Announcement: Monkey towers in Aaron’s range gain an Advanced Intel-esque range, infinite projectile lifespan, and increased projectile speed for 10 seconds.----------- Lv. 10 - Ban: Bans the strongest bloon on screen, making it so that for the next 10 seconds, any new instances of the bloon will be popped to the rank under it (e.g. using Ban on round 63 during a ceramic rush results in the next ceramic rush spawning as rainbows but nothing will happen to the first rush). Fortified blimps will only take half HP damage (but fortified leads and ceramics will be popped to blacks/rainbows) and freeplay ramped blimps will only take damage as if they were a non ramped blimp (banning moabs on round 101 will spawn moabs with 200 less hp instead of ceramics). Has a very long cooldown.------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lv. 20 - Banned bloons become decamoized/regenized and fortified blimps take full hp damage from bans (e.g. banned fortified moab will now take 400).-------------------- Forum name: PTpirahna
Aaron competition Name: The AARON and nobody else Description: Shines in all colors to reflect each member and its uniqueness of the community and makes sure everyone likes him. There is absolutely nothing to dislike about this character. Does not look like a monkey - looks like the NK impersonation in one big and bold character Level 3 skill: Listens to each person and responds in lightening speed Level 10 skill: Fixes any problem and be it ever so small or big, nothing is left undone to correct something Level 20 buff: Whoever is still unhappy at this point is being made happy using his magic skills Bonus feature: Aaron gets a halo and will forever be an honorary member of NK and his ghost will forever haunt any member of the NK community that dares to do funny stuff aka cheat in any game My forum name is Kopatcheka
Aaron the Monkey God: Shoots a sprite not found projectile at bloons, dealing 2 layers of damage. Level 3 Ability: throws a data.jet at bloons dealing 13 or 12 or 2011 damage. Level 10 ability: just deletes all bloons and deals 500 damage to moabs. Does not affect ZOMGs, BADs and DDTs. Level 20 buff: the level 3 ability became the main attack and the actual lvl3 ability now throws 3 2x stronger data.jets
HI TARN, THIS IS ALICEWELLS XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD
Welcome Tarn! A suggestion to bring this blog to more people: post a link on the BTD6 subreddit at reddit.com/r/btd6 .
Hero Name: Aaron the Community Manager - Hero Description: Manages the community. Duh... - Level 3 ability: Grants all monkey's increased pierce, popping power and range for a short duration - Level 10 Skill: Moves the strongest bloon (Max Zomg) into the hacker pool, dealing 50% damage and then returning it to the start - Lvl 20 Skill: Aaron ascends into his true form, unleashing his wrath upon the bloons. Destroys all bloons instantly, deals massive damage to moabs, and lets out a battle cry, massively increasing the attack speed of all towers in his radius for a short duration. - Forum name: PB2StormForce
Hero name: Aaron the astronaut Hero description: That's one small step for a monkey, one giant leap for monkey-kind. With his high IQ and astronomical skills, returned from space solely to defend his homeland. Aaron sucks bloons with his vacuum pipe one at a time, holds it for a few seconds (3), pops it once, then blows it away from the exit. Hero ability level 3: Summons a small meteorite to a specified point of the map, popping, stunning and burning all the bloons in the impact site. Cooldown 30 seconds. Level 10: Partial Eclipse: The map turns dark, monkeys put their protective black glasses on, because an imminent eclipse will cast a powerful and dangerous diffused ray all over the map, dealing constant damage to everything on screen for 8 seconds (1 Damage/sec). Bloons are blinded and 5% of them moves the wrong way, except MOAB class. Cooldown 60 seconds. Level 20: Total eclipse: During the eclipse bloons receive double damage, lead bloons are no longer immune, MOAB class bloons receive 20 damage (total) and a Gravitational anomaly makes all bloons in Aaron's range attracted by him, making them orbit around Aaron for the entire duration of the eclipse. Cooldown 60 seconds. Forum name SmokeyTheBandicoot Ideas for the other levels: Level 2: pops sucked bloon 3 times before blowing it away, but holds the bloons for twice as much time. Level 4: blows bloons further Level 5: Gravitational anomaly: Bloons next to Aaron are attracted to him, making them move slower. The more bloons are attracted, the less each one is slowed down, though. Level 6: Decreases popping time by 50% Level 7: Miniature black holes: Randomly creates over the map mini black-holes every 12 seconds, which hold up to 20 bloons in place. Each black hole lasts 5 seconds Level 8: An additional vacuum pipe makes Aaron able to hold two bloons at once Level 9: Vacuum pumps suck air out of the victim bloons, deflating them, making them move 50% slower and lose their immunities. Level 11: Third vacuum pipe to suck one more bloon at a time. Level 12: Bloons are popped even faster (once per second). Level 13: Bloons are blown away even further. Level 14: Meteor shower: Level 3 ability summons 3 small meteors instead of 1, in the same selected place, each falls a few seconds after the previous one Level 15: Low gravity: Aaron uses boot propulsors to relocate himself jumping towards the target bloon, depending on target priority. Level 16: Photovoltaic cells: Increased energy for suction pumps makes Aaron able to pop bloons 5 times in 3 seconds Level 17: Gas venting: Adds an additional tube which only blows away bloons (3 per second) Level 18: Jetpack: Aaron uses his jetpack to pursuit bloons to suck, pop and blow. Level 19: Electrolysis: Powerful jolt jumps from bloon to bloon splitting them: Zebra into black and white; Rainbow into 1 Red, 1 Blue, 2 Green, 3 Yellow, 3 Pink; Purple into 1 red and 1 blue. Others are simply popped or damaged by 1.
Aaron the Pirate King Description: "Aaron seems like a normal Pirate at first, but don't mess with him! His crew is helping him out at any cost. Aarrrrrrrr! " Lvl 3 skill: Crew Call: "Aaron calls his crew for help at the battlefield." His crew jumps out of the boat and fight the bloons. His crew consists of a few monkeys with swords, which individually pop 1 layer per swing. Duration: 5 seconds. The damage per swordhit and/or the attack speed get higher every few levels. Lvl 10 skill: Parrot Power: "Aaron tells his parrot to fly around the map and peck bloons. When he comes back you get gold equivalent to the amount of bloons he popped." Basically the description says everything. Lvl 20 buff: "Crew Call spawns many more Pirates now!" you could also extend the duration of this ability if its needed. He and his boat also look cooler now . Oh yeah it would be kinda cool if you could give him like a passive buff to all boats or all water towers in his range. Q: Why do i want "Aaron the Pirate King" in the game? A: 1. We don't have a water-placeable hero yet, which would be really cool. 2. Simply because of the "Aarrrrrrr(on)!" joke.
