You can't burn a bloon on fire already. Also, Aggro gwen is...bad
Line 38: Line 38:
Gwendolin is less flexible at direct damage than [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]], but compensates this with being able to do more damage onto higher-delay bloons with her On Fire effects, and adding unique synergies with other Monkeys and against bloons already On Fire. All of her hero-exclusive cards are beneficial to Gwendolin strategies, although [[Firestorm (BCS)|Firestorm]] stands out for its cheap Gold cost and wholescreen damage without needing Bloontonium.

Although best suited for midrange and control decks, aggro Gwendolin is still viable, but arguably the weakest hero candidate for aggro. For aggro Gwendolin, use her just to access her cheap Firestorm card, while rushing the opponent with swarms of low-cost 1 delay bloons.
Although best suited for midrange and control decks, aggro Gwendolin can still be used for the purposes of farming achievements, such as 100 wins with Gwendolin, as otherwise [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] provides more efficient defense from bloontonium. For aggro Gwendolin, rush the opponent with swarms of low-cost 1 delay bloons, and only use Firestorm as a last resort against swarms.

*Similar to Quincy, if you are about to overflow on Bloontonium, you can use one or two Fireballs before gaining more Bloontonium. However, if a Bloon is already On Fire, using a Fireball would be pointless on it.

*You can use the extra Fireballs to act as a "marked for death" for bloons that are planned to be hit by Flame Strike's 250 damage to burning bloons.

*Certain Monkeys are protected against an opponent's [[Bed Time]] if Gwendolin has an active Heat It Up. Notable examples include: [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BCS)|Super Monkey Fan Club]], [[Tack Sprayer (BCS)|Tack Sprayer]].
