Accidentally said the wrong max dps for the golden cowboy, it’s 94.8 not 64.8. But, I got the value right, and because of its rlly bad value I still wouldn’t consider it a good form of DPS

[delta_cosmic]

If you thought Accelerator fell off (granted the recent buff kinda helped it)

Look at what happened to Golden Scout. There's just too much competition early game towers now and this finally ends the debate between Golden Scout and Gold Solider on which is better.

3:54 g minigunner
5:25 g pyro

Bro was just glazing brawler the entire time

[adamchea]

Alright, let me go over this rq

Golden Scout: As much as I like Golden Scout, I can't deny that he's the worst one. Since early game isn't very important due to being powercrept into oblivion, Golden Scout is just not worth it. Why spend 50k on a rng crate to get Golden Scout if you can just get Brawler or Shotgunner? Although I will admit, he is arguably the best at role and his bad max dps isnt that much of a downside because he's not supposed to be your main dps, which is why you have 5 slots. B+ Tier. How sad.

Golden Soldier: Honestly, it's pretty underwhelming for a Golden tower. Golden Soldier is built to be good for the entire game, dealing with early, mid, and late game, relatively well. Why is he "underwhelming"? Well, it's because he's good at everything. You see, Golden Soldier may be good at early, mid, and late game, but he isn't exactly the best. He's kinda like the Millitant of the Golden towers. Considering the insane coin cost to even obtain him, he is undoubtedly not worth it. As a matter of fact, I had trouble deciding whether Golden Scout or Golden Soldier should go in last. Golden Soldier just takes 5th thanks to his versatility. A- Tier. Honestly, pretty overrated.

Golden Cowboy: Undoubtedly one of if not the absolute best Golden tower in SOLOS, and pretty good in duos. Keeps most the money-making of the regular version while also doing much more DPS. However, struggles quite a bit in TRIOS and SQUADS. This is quite a heavy limitation, and it keeps Golden Cowboy from being any higher. Regular Cowboy is actually considered to be better than Golden Cowboy in some cases, thanks to cheaper money-making and the Golden version having absolutely HORRENDOUSLY ASS cost efficiency. The fact that the two are even comparable makes this Golden tower the hardest to rank out of all of the Golden towers. Pretty much the absolute minimum of what a Golden tower should be. A Tier. Oh yeah, also, I think you shit on this tower a bit too much ☠️.

Golden Mini: Slightly better Accelerator. Great for everything but SQUADS. Can be pretty good as a filler dps option and is a DPS monster. The reason why he's this low is because of the insane amount of competition. Golden Mini has to compete with Ranger, Engi, Gatling, GCB, and Turret. These options are not only comparable to Golden Mini, but most of them are much easier to obtain. Golden Mini also struggles in SQUADS, has pretty mid range, and is very vulnerable to stuns. A+ Tier. Kinda worth it.

Golden Pyro: Might of had the biggest glow up out of all of the Golden towers. Insane crowd controller, very good support capabilities, and good all around the game. There's not much else to say here. He is just insane at his role and deserves the rank of a Golden tower. S Tier. Arson is strong.

GCB: Good fucking lord. Insane sub dps that can easily overrun most waves with the sheer amount of bodyguard spam. Somehow is able to rival the versatility of Engi, which is just absurd. Somehow people think that he is not first place, which is just wrong. S+ Tier. The mafia is at their peak.

Overall, two are worth the insane price tag (Golden Pryo and GCB), two are definitely not worth (Golden Scout and Golden Soldier), and the other two are a mixed bag, being somewhat worth (Golden Cowboy and Golden Mini).

[LoEffrt]

I agree with it all except for golden soldier, because of flying becoming much more prevalent in all gamemodes especially events it's use has sky-rocketed. It's also the best tower for early game in most of the recent events due to lasting through to mid game on its own, letting you easily farm for late game dps, its fast firerate and massive burst makes it extremely good for dealing with the new tank trait which is also being used more. Should be at least s

[bacongamingfr]

he did golden cowboy dirty bro it can defend until wave 27 if you use it right on the correct maps

[pringlemangt]

When me and my friend were playing fallen mode trying to get to hidden wave we had a strat that i only farmed (nothing else) and he only placed golden cowboys (except for gatling gun to defend better) and guess what, in the later waves (30-ish) he had more money than me, he was making enough to max DJ gatling and the cowboys, when I could barely upgrade some engis to minigun sentries. In the end he had everything maxed out when I was basicaly broke

[Zeeyzack]

For soloists like me
G-cowboy is a dream tower.
In solo games, you're stuck with 5 towers AND dps towers are on high demand, So farm and an early game tower isnt really good, plus of you're not using farm then you're basically broke the whole game.

G-cowboy is an early game tower and a farm plus eco in solo is quite good so you dont need a LOT of money, so it being half the farm's income isnt really bad.

Sure you could argue that farm plus an all rounder tower is better but investing in farms usually means your defense is weaker.
But investing in G-cowboy means that you are investing both in early-mid game defense and economy which is amazing


Its not recommended in 3-4 player games due to atleast one person having a better early game tower, the eco being absolute poop, and high demand for farms.



It's been 5 damn hours AND GOD DAMN IT GUYS STOP WAGING WAR OVER IF FARM IS BETTER THAN GC

THIS IS MY OPINION AND ALL OF THIS IS WHAT I THINK.
IF Y'ALL THINK FARM IS BETTER THEN KEEP IT TO YOURSELVES
IF Y'ALL THINK GOLDEN COWBOY IS BETTER THEN KEEP IT TO YOURSELVES
CAN Y'ALL STOP BEING VIOLENT FOR A DAY!?

(this is why I hate society)

[raiserincoming]

Getting sent an email to make this video is lowkey insane

[benharper]

Something you neglected to mention on the golden cowboy, it still makes income during the final wave, which farm does not and helps to ensure that you have extra cash should it be needed.

[KemwelJack]

Lowkey needed this alot just cuz they're hella upds 😭

[JitomatePodrido]

Finally someone who recognizes golden crook as the best golden tower, most people just say g mini because of the high dmg at max lvl, but ignore the huge importance the early and mid game stages has on the game, which g crook is more useful thanks to its versatility across all stages

[Wojek]

Golden cowboy is amazing for solo fallen imo. You can save an extra slot by not having to bring separate eco and early game towers, leading to much higher dps later on. It allows you to bring DPS towers that you normally wouldnt use with farm (like golden minigunner, turret, accel, or any other dps tower without flying detection) since you can bring a second one to cover that. Also even if you are using a tower that can already hit every enemy and deals enough dps, its nice to have extra support, like from a medic or electroshocker. the lower eco isnt really that much of an issue as you can use them to defend by themselves actually far further than wave 19if you also get a commander/dj for them (which will also increase their income since commanders firerate buff allows them to generate cash quicker). The cash generation itself isnt as clear cut as "x amount of money per wave". It really depends on what wave youre on, since the more enemies there is, the more cash you get, leading to it actually rivaling, if not surpassing farm in the later waves.

[somerandomperson]

Ngl I find it hard to replace golden pyro. It covers really good early-mid game crowd control, high defense melting, hidden + lead detection. The burn after effect makes a major part of its damage and clears out hordes pretty well especially in events like hexscape. The defense melting is also insane for fallen mode as some enemies have crazy defense amounts from 50-80% which effectively cuts down into 25-40%.

[MangoGalaxyYT]

What I observe about the Golden Cowboy is actually that the amount of income it makes is subjective to the gamemode, enemies, wave, and teammates (if you're not playing solo). You mentioned $7, 200 each wave for lvl 4 cowboys. In the early-mid game waves for solo fallen mode that may be true, but in the later waves of solo fallen I was able to make over 20k cash in one wave using lvl 4 golden cowboys and a little bit of dps, and this number barely changed when I upgraded them all to lvl 5 (but I understand lvl 5 is still considered worse than lvl 4 for making money). That is much more than what the farm can make per wave. Of course this isn't fully accurate, since the amount of money made when killing the enemies also accounts to the 20k that I made, so this all could just be yap and golden cowboy might still be making 7.2k cash every wave with 12.8k enemy kill cash.

Also, I really can't say that this is outclassed by the farm because the fact that it is able to attack just makes up for the slightly less cash generated (which like I said, is different every wave and on every gamemode). In many cases people consider it BETTER than farm because of this factor (which I don't always agree with since it depends on what gamemode you're playing, what wave you're playing on, the enemies on that wave, and what kind of defenses your teammates place down, since if they place very strong dps towers then it will steal away some of your cowboy cash since they will get less shots in therefore making less money). Also, the fact that this takes two roles in a proper TDS loadout (economy and early defense / kinda mid game) makes it more used than the farm in many cases like solo fallen and makes it in my opinion AT LEAST the top 3 best golden towers.

Thank you for listening to my yap, in return here's a cookie :D 🍪

[Praimfire]

G crook legit carried in the hexscape event lol

[Voideroffical]

Hey Corso, good video like always! Also I wanted to say you inspired my channel and I’m here to say it’s going decent so far so thank you!

[MikkoHarlea]

ngl I feel like Golden Minigunner should be A tier since unlike Accelerator they have 15 placement limit but most of the time the minigunner will be in bad spots with it only have 18 range and also being very expensive that why in paper 40 minigunners look like it will shred the fallen king easily but it doesn't due to most of them being in bad spots

[ChickAndDuckArmy]

For me, golden cowboy should be getting more attention. First of all, i usually play solo which means my dps is heavily limited. This makes gcow more viable for me than farm. Then, it can generate insane income. Since gcow gives a pretty decent amount of cash even at the earlier levels, you can get a dps option at the back while you upgrade gcows. The golden cowboy can generate up to 150k cash in a single wave if used correctly so i think it is better than farm.
