- The extra eyes that Vortex gains at higher tiers in Bloons TD 6 help it navigate the map.[2]
- It is afraid of slow cookers and being popped.[3]
- Its shockwaves have an electric potential of about 60,000 volts.[4]
- It jumps back upon reaching a skull in BTD6 because taking damage destroys its slipstream, so it has to move back to create a new one.[5]
