Lurid Layered (ScrapTD)

Lurid Layered is the fifth barrel in ScrapTD and is automatically unlocked.

Strategical use
Lurid Layered was a hellish weak barrel first, but got stronger and is a true kiler now. With the abilities speed, freeze or clone it can cause lots of damage, because the enemy will usually not be able to build Double Pains yet. It can also be used as a simple scrap production boost, before starting to use Coal, It's Alive or Danger Zone.

In the lower arenas it is even better, because of being the last automatically unlocked barrel and only one defense is automatically unlocked (Square Blue). Purchasing Double Pain costs 200, +600 from the defenses before, so it's rare to find players which can defend it in arena 1. But as of the recent update, DP can be purchased after Shooting Box, costing 400 bricks in total to get it, so sometimes players in arena 1 may have a chance of beating Lurids.
