Sabotage is a status effect characterized as an attack slowing all bloons on screen and any incoming bloons. It was introduced in Bloons TD 5 with introduction of the Ninja Monkey's Sabotage Supply Lines upgrade, and later to Bloons TD 6 with Ninja Monkey's Bloon Sabotage upgrade. It is part of the damage types family.
Sabotage is represented on the Bloons Wiki as , the upgrade icon for Bloon Sabotage in Bloons TD 6, as this is the only upgrade that does this aside from its upgrade Grand Saboteur. It also comes with Whole Screen
and is often accompanied with a built-in Slowdown
.
Sabotage is a subset of Slowdown , as they both slowdown bloons so their movement is less than 100% but more than 0% but Sabotage also slows down all incoming bloons for 15 seconds. This means that a Sabotage can slow down bloons that will spawn but haven't yet spawned.
