A single Sun God is better than having three Super Monkeys with Plasma Vision because it costs slightly less and the sun rays have nearly no limit of poppage due to the hypersonic speed at which they fire, piercing through MOAB-Class Bloons to hit the bloons behind it.
Sun God can also be upgraded into a temple but it would destroy all tower within it's radias.
Bloons Super Monkey
Sun God in BSM
If the player touches a Sun item in Bloons Super Monkey you will be transformed into a Sun God which will blast sun rays everywhere. The sunrays travel in 5 paths unlike the regular Sun God, and the rest at angles on both sides. The sun rays are arguably more powerful than the death ray vision, but if put in the hands of an experienced player, the death ray vision can be more destructive. The Sun God lasts approximately 4 seconds.
Bloons Super Monkey 2
The Sun God reappears in BSM2, this time it can only be obtained by popping a Golden Bloon or Power-Up Bloon. Instead of shooting endless sun rays, the Sun God in Bloons Super Monkey 2 attacks with nine tentacles that greatly resemble Super Plasma Tentacles from the original Bloons Super Monkey. The attack pattern closely resembles a rising sun.
Trivia
Solid, costant stream of sunrays
If M.I.B Call to Arms is used with a Sun God, it will appear to shoot a single solid beam rather than three separated bursts.
In Bloons TD4 iOS, if you look closely, the hand is just a regular Super Monkey's hand.
Even though it is the highest upgrade to the most powerful tower in Bloons TD 4, the Sun God still can't detect or target Camo Bloons on its own.
In Bloons TD 5, a single sun ray can pop 15 bloons at a time.
In Bloons TD 4, in Fast Forward, the Sun God's rays appear to be packed into one, but if you don't fast forward the game, they are not packed into one.
The sun rays are more spread out in BTD5 compared to BTD4.
This is helpful in the way that it can hit more Bloons per shot, but worse in the way that it doesn't have the pure power against MOAB class Bloons that the BTD4 Sun God had.
In BTD4 iPhone/iPad, the Sun God's projectiles appear to be noticeably smaller in size.
A glitch occasionally occurs in Bloons Super Monkey with the Sun God; its head (except its eyes and crown) becomes totally invisible/transparent.
Sun God shoots every 2 frames, and Plasma Blasts shoots every frame, so Sun God focuses on popping power and 2/3 Robo Monkey focuses on damage.
This makes the Sun God more effective against normal bloons and the 2/3 Robo Monkey slightly better against MOAB class bloons at longer ranges (also taking upgrade prices into account).
The Sun God was a lot less powerful in Bloons TD 4 than it is in BTD5.
It is cheaper in BTD5, where it is a lot more powerful but costs only $16500, where in BTD4 was a lot less powerful but costs $20000.
Sunrays have higher velocity in BTD5 than in BTD4.
Sun God shoots every 2 frame in BTD5, but in BTD4 it shoots every 3 frames.
The popping power of the Sun God is 15 in BTD5, where it was only 5 in BTD4.
