Bloon Buster sees use in the early game of [[Race Event]]s, though its use is otherwise relegated to crosspathing. It is the optimal crosspath for middle-path Mortar Monkeys, and is preferred for [[Blooncineration (BTD6)|Blooncineration]] if the map has only 1 entrance per round.

Bloon Buster's increased damage improves its DPS and capability to skip more layers at once, and can bypass the explosion-immune layers of a Rainbow. This upgrade sees use in the early game of [[Race Event]]s, though its use is otherwise relegated to crosspathing. It is the optimal crosspath for middle-path Mortar Monkeys, and is preferred for [[Blooncineration (BTD6)|Blooncineration]] if the map has only one entrance per round.

==Trivia==
*It is the only [[Mortar Tower (BTD5)|BTD5]] upgrade to be downgraded from Tier 3 to Tier 2 in BTD6.
*Its upgrade icon depicts a {{BTD6|Yellow Bloon}} being popped into a Red, which is 3 layers. Prior to {{BTD6 version|39.0}}, where base Mortar got a damage buff, this was impossible as Bloon Buster only had 2 base damage.
