So I heard you wanted feedback on your towers, and this is the only original tower I saw that was 100% complete, so... here's a rating.

Originality: 5.5. I thought this was a Heli Pilot skin at first. Jokes aside, the idea of a monkey riding a dragon to attack bloons is pretty novel and I like the theme. The fact that it has synergies with other towers when maxed out is cool as well. Looking at the upgrades, however, five of them are almost the exact same as upgrades on the BTD6 Heli Pilot.

I wouldn't be pointing this out if your tower didn't have an attack scheme nearly identical to the heli pilot as well. I really like the Flaming Tackle ability, however, so I won't bring the originality any lower.
 * More Fire --> Faster Firing
 * Bigger Wings --> Bigger Jets (Same price)
 * Pursuing Dragon --> Pursuit (Same price)
 * Wind Gusts --> Downdraft (Same price)
 * Better Vision --> IFR (Same price)
 * Not to mention the Heli Pilot is also $1500 on medium.

Balance: 9.5. Not much to say here, the prices seem pretty fair. 5th tier prices are good considering they buff other towers. The only thing I'm not sure about is the Flaming Tackle ability, but that's just an issue with detail.

'''Detail: 8. '''A few minor issues.

"Epicness": 9. It's a monkey riding a dragon taking down bloons. I love it thematically. Just imagine this tower in game! Again, I really like the flaming tackle ability, it adds a lot to the tower and brings it above a Heli Pilot clone.
 * Flaming Tackle. How far is the tackle? Is there a limit to how many bloons it can hit? How does the tackle work if it's not in pursuit mode, does it tackle the air if there are no bloon nearby? Does it affect MOAB-Class bloons?
 * How many bloons can the lighting hit at once?
 * How long do the blue fireballs freeze bloons for?
 * Polar Aura. Are the bloons permanently slowed to 50% after touching the hitbox or are they only slowed while touching the hitbox?
 * Master of the Frost. Do the icicles hit all MOAB-Class bloons on screen or is there a limit?

Overall Rating: 7.5/10. By all means, this is a great tower. The fact that it's so similar to the Heli Pilot does affect my opinion of it as a conception, but that doesn't mean it's not a good one.
