Blooming Bloon (BCS)

Line 28:

*For its price of 4 Gold, Blooming Bloon is powerful. Not popping it is very punishing, and it requires immediate attention if sent. Countering it early on can be difficult if you draw poorly, especially if the opponent is using [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay]] to buff its health further, or [[Amelia (BCS)|Amelia]] to protect it.

:*The easiest way to counter it is to pop it before it leaks, resulting in only one Yellow to deal with instead of three. Countering the offspring is more difficult, however, especially versus aggro and ~~when encountering~~ Gold-sabotaging cards such as [[Economy Drain]].

:*The easiest way to counter it is to pop it before it leaks, resulting in only one Yellow to deal with instead of three. Countering the offspring is more difficult, however, especially versus aggro and Gold-sabotaging cards such as [[Economy Drain]].

*Targeting Blooming Bloon is a priority, as it is one of Aggro’s strongest Bloons. Aggro decks frequently run it, so preparing for it pre-emptively is a must when fighting Aggro.

:*Running burst removal such as [[Robo Monkey (BCS)|Robo Monkey]], [[Bloon Redirect]], and [[Overload (BCS)|Overload]] is effective at taking it out before it becomes a threat. Zee Jay’s passive can buff it over Overload’s health range if you are playing on Dark Castle.

Line 39:

*Conveniently, Blooming Bloon (assuming no discounts) produces enough Bloontonium to activate Amelia's Bloon Shield passive.

*If running Zee Jay, a leaked Blooming Bloon's first Yellow will count for his Passive Enhancements, thus guaranteeing 1 Rad Token for that round.

*Note that the spawned Yellows effectively have 2 delay relative to the opponent. So, as the opponent, saving up to [[Thunder Druid]] can be done if the Blooming Bloon was sent later than Round 2.

*Note that the spawned Yellows effectively have 2 delay relative to the opponent. So, as the opponent, saving up to [[Thunder Druid]] or [[Frag Bomb Shooter]] can be done if the Blooming Bloon was sent later than Round 2.
