Similar to its previous upgrade, the Bloontonium Reactor struggles to find a proper placement on many tracks due to lack of water placement. It doesn't increase its decamo speed, and the speed of the damage-over-time effect often doesn't fully pop Bloons stronger than a [[Pink Bloon (BMC)|Pink Bloon]] on most tracks, and all speed buffs are useless on this attack. Even on its most optimal spots, it fails to pop [[Ceramic Bloon (BMC)|Ceramic Bloon]]s. As a result, this upgrade is difficult to justify using outside of [[Contested Territory (BMC)|Contested Territory]], or [[Monkey Teams (BMC)|Monkey Teams]] in Lead-deficient loadouts.

Due to the ability cooldown stacking bug, it can be used in CT on maps with a lot of water to reduce the cooldown of some [[First Strike Capability (BMC)|First Strike Capability]] subs to almost nothing, and deliver its massive damage missile multiple times per turn. Due to the limited amount of Subs per city, a ratio of about 1:2 First Strikes and Reactors should maximize the rate of abilities.
