'''Gwendolin''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]''. She is unlocked at the start of the game, provided the player taps her tab on the Heroes menu to unlock her.

Gwendolin shoots from her flamethrower, shooting flames as her basic [[attack]]. Each flame deals 1 damage to up to 3 Bloons, but cannot damage [[Purple Bloon (Battles 2)|Purple Bloon]]s. She levels up quite slowly. As she levels up, her [[range]], [[attack speed]], [[pierce]], and [[damage]] increase, and gains a variety of buffs and special attacks.
Gwendolin's basic [[attack]] shoots fireballs that deal [[Damage type|fire-type]] [[damage]] to up to 3 Bloons per shot, and deal extra damage to [[Lead Bloon (Battles 2)|Lead Bloon]] and Frozen [[Bloon]]s. She cannot damage [[Purple Bloon (Battles 2)|Purple Bloon]]s and cannot detect [[Camo Bloon (Battles 2)|Camo Bloon]]s. As she levels up, her attack gains more [[pierce]] and [[damage]] and shoots more [[projectile]]s at a time, plus a variety of buffs and special attacks:
*At level 4, she gains the Heat It Up attack and buff. Every 40 shots, at a cooldown of 4.5 seconds, she unleashes a fiery ring that deals high damage and provides nearby towers with lead-popping and +1 pierce for a long time.
*Starting at level 4, her attack occasionally triggers a burst of fire around her that damages Bloons in an area and temporarily [[tower buff|buffs]] [[tower]]s within her [[range]], granting them extra [[pierce]], bonus damage to Frozen Bloons, and allow all affected towers to damage and do more damage to [[Lead Bloon (Battles 2)|Lead Bloon]]s.
*At level 5, she unlocks Pyrotechnics Expert, which buffs all Dragon's Breaths, Rings of Fire, and Signal Flares with extra attack speed and radius.
*Starting at level 5, she passively buffs the [[attack speed]] and [[projectile radius]] of all [[Wizard Monkey (Battles 2)|Wizard Monkey]]s with [[Dragon's Breath (Battles 2)|Dragon's Breath]], [[Tack Shooter (Battles 2)|Tack Shooter]]s with [[Ring of Fire (Battles 2)|Ring of Fire]], and [[Mortar Monkey (Battles 2)|Mortar Monkey]]s with [[Signal Flare (Battles 2)|Signal Flare]].
*Her level 3 ability is Cocktail of Fire: she throws a cocktail on a custom-selected location to quickly damage bloons that pass through it, except Purples (until Level 16+).
*Starting at level 6, her attack inflicts an effect on Bloons that deals fire-type [[damage over time]] for a few seconds.
*His level 10 ability is Firestorm: it damages all non-Purple Bloons (until Level 16+, where she can burn Purples) and sets them on fire, and applies a global Heat It Up that provides extra damage to every tower.
*She has two activated abilities:
**'''Cocktail of Fire''' (level 3) - She throws a cocktail on a custom-selected location to quickly damage bloons that pass through it, except Purples (until Level 16+).
**'''Firestorm:''' (level 10) - Damages all non-Purple Bloons (until Level 16+, where she can burn Purples) and sets them on fire, and applies a global Heat It Up that provides extra damage to every tower.

'''Cocktail of Fire''' is unlocked at level 3. It places a [[Wall of Fire (Battles 2)|Wall of Fire]]-like projectile on the track that rapidly deals [[Damage type|fire damage]] to Bloons that pass over it. It hits every 0.24 seconds and can hit up to 26 Bloons at a time. The cocktail's landing point can be set to anywhere within Gwendolin's range using the [[targeting option]], even behind [[line of sight]] blockers. It has a 45-second cooldown and starts with a 7.5-second cooldown.
