**[[Adora (BCS)|Adora]] frequently demands the spending of Bloontonium for defense. Very often, she will spend Bloontonium defending against leaking bloons via her passive Sun Shield ability, and boosting her orb count via Ultimate Sacrifice.
*Heroes that heavily rely on Bloontonium benefit the best from this Bloon, mainly those that require Bloontonium early on before spending expensive Bloons. Best choices include [[Adora (BCS)|Adora]], [[Mountain Obyn (BCS)|Mountain Obyn]], and [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]].
**Mid-range and control [[Amelia (BCS)|Amelia]] decks often rely on eliminating the opponent's defenses, and gaining enough Bloontonium early on gives them an advantage for this.
