##### New Awesome

- New Hero & Skin Introduction

- As the final piece of our collaboration with Mattel, we are excited to welcome the newest Hero - He-Man, the most powerful man (err, Monkey) in the universe!
- As all well-versed Masters of the Universe fans know, He-Man is the alter ego of the noble Adam, Prince of Eternia. While He-Man is the eponymous hero, Prince Adam plays a huge role in the classic and more recent cartoons, so we went above and beyond to create 2 heroes in one with distinct attacks and abilities and the ability to transform between them!
- Prince Adam is always the deployed hero, who attacks quickly as a large melee style sword wielder and is immune to negative effects like Stuns from Bloons or Bosses. But you don’t have to wait long (or at all with the right Knowledge), as the real magic happens at level 3 when he unlocks his iconic Transformation ability, allowing him to hold aloft his magic sword and swap to his super-powered alter ego who trades the attack speed for sheer devastating damage, by the power of Grayskull!
- Now as many of you know from community discussions on She-Ra and Skeletor, the Mattel items must be presented as in-app purchases (IAPs) to fulfill our license obligations and do justice to this awesome, long-standing He-Man universe. We feel this full hero does that justice, and brings fun and exciting new mechanics that we want to make sure can be fairly used in all of our events and competitive modes.  After much discussion, we made the only logical and (in)sane conclusion - instead of doing 2 heroes in 1, let’s do 4 heroes in 1!
- So we’re also introducing the noble Monkey of the Court, Dan D’Monke, and his secret identity, The Masqued Macaque! Technically identical for game balance but with entirely different 3d models, animations, descriptions, and voiceovers, Dan D’Monke fills the base Hero position on which the He-Man skin is applied, just as Adora and Obyn provide the base for She-Ra and Skeletor.
- To support the release of the major motion picture release of He-Man, we are presenting the He-Man and Dan D’Monke bundle pack exclusively for 2 weeks only upon release of v55. After two weeks, Dan D’Monke will become available for Monkey Money purchase like any other Hero. Until Dan D’Monke is available for Monkey Money unlock, he will not be enabled in any events or competitive modes.

- The Hero & Abilities

- Level 3 Transformation - Activation will blast nearby Bloons with crackling lightning and leave a short lingering attack speed bonus while swapping him back and forth between a quick supportive base form and a solo wrecking ball with alternate attacks and abilities.
- Level 7 Strategically allows another target tower to be teleported to another location. But when he’s transformed, he takes matters into his own hands and leaps across the battlefield to smash down at the target location himself in a devastating, stunning impact.
- Level 10 Ability rallies nearby towers, inspires them to shrug off negative Bloon effects and deal increased damage for a short time (at the cost of a slower attack speed) and the cry even activates the effects of passive abilities in radius as if a life were just lost. While transformed however he unleashes a Berserk Warcry that sends him into a hyper-speed frenzy, dashing wildly between Bloons across a huge range, shredding them into confetti (that you definitely shouldn’t let your cats play with).

- Hero Ultimate Survival Kit

- While certain attacks and effects are limited to one form or the other, this hero is tough as nails built to survive the densest Bloon rushes.
- Some of the mechanics that make this work are: the Net Trap catches and slows small groups of Bloons, the Magic Barrier where escaping Bloons cause a magical shield to burst out from the exit to reduce lives lost while shoving the Bloons back and stunning
