Round 97
Round 97 in BTD6: two Fortified ZOMGs with 10,720 health each. RBE, cash and how to beat this round in CHIMPS.
Guide
Round 97 sends only two bloons, both Fortified ZOMGs, within five seconds of each other. These are the first Fortified ZOMGs of the standard rounds, and with 34% ramping each has 10,720 health on its outer layer.
Each Fortified ZOMG releases four Fortified BFBs, which release Fortified MOABs and Fortified Super Ceramics. The round is worth 69,984 RBE but pays only about $1,220 from pops plus a $197 bonus. It is a pure single-target damage test, and a leak ends the game.

How to beat round 97
Focus everything on raw single-target damage.
- Main damage: multiple 2-5-0 Elite Snipers, Sun Temple or True Sun God, Tech Terror or The Anti-Bloon, MOAB Eliminator, Master Bomber ninjas and Ray of Doom.
- Stall: Maim MOAB and Cripple MOAB snipers and MOAB Glue gunners buy a lot of time against just two targets. ZOMGs resist some slows better than smaller blimps, so stack more than one source.
- Abilities: use the MOAB Assassin ability, First Strike Capability and Tech Terror ability on the Fortified ZOMGs themselves. Two targets means you can split your abilities evenly.
- Follow-up: eight Fortified BFBs appear once the ZOMGs pop. Your area damage should cover that spot.
In CHIMPS, round 97 is a good warning for round 100. If you need every ability to beat two Fortified ZOMGs, add more single-target damage before 98 and 99.
Alternate Bloons Rounds
In Alternate Bloons Rounds round 97 adds eight Fortified DDTs to the two Fortified ZOMGs, for 82,656 RBE, so camo and lead coverage are needed as well.
- 2 × ZOMG (Fortified)
- 8 × DDT (Fortified)
