Lowered Blood Towers from 35% > 140% (175% with upgrade) to 30% > 120% (150% with upgrade). A NOTE: I'm not sure about this change, but I have heard a lot from people believing the Blood Towers to be overpowered. Please let me know if you disagree with this nerf.
I think blood towers are underpowered on the harder difficulties. It's got the worst appeal/cost ratio in the game. This means, I won't ever focus on them early on since it'll be horrible economy wise. But then, I can't get them later on, because though they'd be good damage wise if they had max kills, they obviously won't have any kills (though this can sort of be remedied with aux towers). On top, none of their special abilities have anything that helps economy wise (+admission, +spectator, +mineral). In my opinion, it is THE worst tower in the game. Most people complaining about the blood towers (I feel) are the ones that haven't tried the harder difficulties and are just saying a couple bloods will coast you through easy or normal. I'd like to see a strategy that makes good use of them break 1mil on overkill.
You want to maximize dmg per shot against the speed cars. Ideal are advanced spitfires and electron towers which are also the first towers enemies see. Having 3 electron towers helps immensely with stuns allowing your projectiles to actually reach the stupid car. Still expect some leaks with this though.
Dunno if I got it in time but I got 1.2mil. Sent in the replay 2 hours ago so *crosses fingers* :).
Found crossfire to have the best appeal/cost ratio so I spammed those along with spitfire to pump spectators and admissions. Was kind of surprised I broke 1mil. I played overkill/random and got the popularity for 1st upgrade and thought I was just done for -_-. Got the +spectacular% for last upgrade which helped a lot w/ my crossfires but not sure how optimal it is compared to the others. They all seem quite good.

well phooey. Just tried selling everything. Which led me to a bug I'm surprised I hadn't found before. You can't sell your crossfire towers. -_-
Good thing I came here to post that so I could read Skrow's response and thus avoid wasting my time redoing this.
