*The intended use of Growth Gas Bloon is to punish players who heavily rely on area damage and/or random attacks. The bloon itself is too slow to be a threat for leaking; it is a support bloon for reducing damage that other friendly bloons take.

**On Dark Castle, one Growth Gas Bloon is enough to stop two Spike Storms from one-shotting Reds. Quincy users can then follow up with [[Bloon Embiggen]] and/or Quick Shot on a friendly Growth Gas Bloon.

**[[Glaive Ricochet (BCS)|Glaive Ricochet]] won't do much damage if one Growth Gas Bloon is present, and do worse if  there are two or more Growth Gas Bloons.

*[[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] and [[Gwendolin (BCS)|Gwendolin]] can damage their own Growth Gas Bloons with their abilities, doing low enough damage to trigger the health generation multiple times. With Quincy especially, this can be exploited with swarm cards or [[Red Bloon Storm]] to generate a lot of health. Using both Growth Gas Bloon charges and spreading the damage between them allows them to heal each other and last longer.

*Growth Gas Bloons will usually be at the most back of the queue, because they have a very long delay. Only [[ZOMG (BCS)|ZOMG]] and [[Strengthenator]] have a delay that is greater than or equal to the Growth Gas Bloon. This also means it is not easy to bait a [[Triple Shot (BCS)|Triple Shot]] against 3 or more non-GGBs on screen, and [[Amelia the Amazing (BCS)|Amelia]]'s passive would be interfered.
