*Like [[Quick Ready]], Hastening Bloon can reduce a bloon's delay to 0, but costs 1 less Gold. The tradeoff is that the bloon targeted is random, while leaving behind a bloon that generates 6 bloontonium, so this Bloon should preferably be used when it can guarantee a win no matter what bloon is affected. | *Like [[Quick Ready]], Hastening Bloon can reduce a bloon's delay to 0, but costs 1 less Gold.

*If looking for reducing the delay of a bloon with two delay to zero, such as any 1 delay bloon with [[Improved Fortification]], or [[Double Ceramic Bloon]], it is recommended that only one Hastening Bloon is relied on before using Quick Ready, as playing more than one Hastening Bloon may end up reducing the delay of the first Hastening Bloon instead of the desired bloon. | *If looking for reducing the delay of a bloon with two delay to zero, such as any 1 delay bloon with [[Improved Fortification]], or [[Double Ceramic Bloon]], it is recommended that only one Hastening Bloon is relied on before using Quick Ready, as playing more than one Hastening Bloon may end up reducing the delay of the first Hastening Bloon instead of the desired bloon. | ||
