pment is still a useful support for smael, but any other support for smael cooldowns is a nono. Dunno what else is good for chimps smael, haven't explored it enough but sounds like a cool cheap T5 to test out.

With support for {{BTD6|Lead Bloon}}s and [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo]] detection, Super Maelstrom is a win condition in [[Race Event]]s. Super Maelstrom transitions smoothly from Blade Maelstrom as it extends the duration of Blade Maelstrom's ability when upgraded from it while the ability is active. 0-5-2 is the preferred crosspath in Race Events because of the shorter downtime. Super Maelstrom is also powerful against {{BTD6|Bloonarius}}'s insides, especially in Timed settings, where one-shotting Bloonarius spawns an extreme amount of Bloons.

Elsewhere, Super Maelstrom is a below average DPS option that falls off on [[Expert]] maps, but now fulfills a niche role in cleaning up Super Ceramics due to its recent bonus Ceramic damage buff. In CHIMPS, 2-5-0 and 0-5-2 are equally favorable, with the former having stronger burst damage and the latter being more reliable.
Elsewhere, Super Maelstrom is a below average DPS option that falls off on [[Expert]] maps, but now fulfills a niche role in cleaning up Super Ceramics for cheaper than most T5s<!--solver is MUCH more expensive than a smael--> due to its recent bonus Ceramic damage buff. In CHIMPS, 2-5-0 and 0-5-2 are equally favorable, with the former having stronger burst damage and the latter being more reliable. It benefits from [[Primary Mentoring (BTD6)|Primary Mentoring]], which reduces ability cooldowns for a low cost.<!--energizer pex is way too gimmicky, expensive, and impractical; use of those two towers is just what content creators do for showcase reasons-->
