Debuffing him this way will guarantee that his Nature's Shield is disabled,<!--13-6=7, shieldis8--> which could potentially deny a few turns of Shield if the Obyn has no way of building Bloontonium. | ||

While this card also has some damage output after playing it, it isn't very useful against the control and Zee Jay OTK decks that Bloontonium drain is used for. For smaller Bloontonium disruption effects, the effect often is not impactful enough to justify Saboteur's middling damage. | ||

Spending lots of Bloontonium frequently will also reduce or nullify the impact of Bloontonium Saboteur. | ||
