@dhisanamincheri4830 no, blooncin has very high dps. It's the only mortar (prior to 39.0) that had high bad dmg and single target. Biggest one was always decent because of stun and pierce, but pop and awe never rly saw use outside of like races imo
@@Tower_Of_Chaosblooncin high single target??? It may be the most among mortars, but still horrible. It's a typical dps option which is overpriced. Pop and awe has always been used to synergize as a stall tower(along with striker), it was super good stall before the update, lasting for most of 95 iirc.
At last. Now that it deals 3 damage, the upgrade icon for Bloon Buster is accurate now. (it shows a red bloon with its yellow, green, and blue layers popped off) Was the devs hinting at this ever since the start of the game?
i feel like the pop and awe is actually gonna be a staple of my single lane runs because the dps rivals the tech terrors ability level of round clearing
I find it funny that I saw someone say that it was a nerf since they only understood the slight damage nerf and didn't even realize the attack speed buff
With a long enough (custom) map Pop And Awe is able to not only 2TC but also get 2MP. If it was possible to start off with a mortar in chimps it would also be able to get every single pop as all it needs is camo popping (I had to use a 003 wizard to give camo + early game start). Edit: It's also an insane coincidence that the instamonkey ISAB got from this Pop And Awe run was a 003 Wizard.
You can actually trigger the obstacle removals 4 times on each side. The first three remove the walls in the spiral, the fourth removes a section of wall near the start of the track.
I'm fine with Follow Mouse being Striker locked. Mortar is balanced around its limited targeting option, that's just less of a viable factor in Battles 2 since taking up a tower slot like that makes their middle path (the other ones don't really need dynamic targeting TBH) really require something like that.
even before the latest buff, Mortar has become our fav tower, especially Artillery Batter and Pop & Awe this buff is great for us but yeah Dark Path was made to showcase mortar. its like Moon Landing but more concise
Dark path is such a easy advanced map that i got r300 imppopable without even putting vtsg on water for flagship buff… and the bads never even got past the middle circle
I’m going to be honest ez money is just expert maps on easy mode 300 cash per win we’ll just expert maps in general even bigger tip pick the water maps such as the castle one and flooded field just farm 4000k to get 0-4-0 pirate monkey to 1 shot it
Which tower will get the Ninjakiwi buff blessing next I wonder?
hi isab
I hope for the engi paragon
Ultra boost
Wouldn't be surprised if it was Jungle's Bounty
God, what I would give for pirate lord to have an unfair bug attached to it.
ISAB never fails to unload his shells into our Dark Path
Pause?
I beg your pardon?
what is this my n word?!?
I love it when isab unloads on us
this the best one yet
ISAB Nearly got 2 mega pops chimps while also saving up to almost 100k accidentally during a casual black border run
If he got some glues and got perms brew ez 2m lol
on an advanced map
@@mmmmmmmmmmmmmit's the easiest advanced map
@@wgigachad3703brickwall, off the coast?
@@vollkornkeks9177this is easier. by a lot
Only took this long for Pop and Awe to feel like a real tier 5.
PnA was already a real T5, its just that mortar sucked so badly that all of its T5s were jokes outside of races.
It only took 39 updates to realise that PaA is a t5
@@auroraa4050blooncin is high only because of its t4, otherwise it would probably be the worst mortar t5 in chimps

based analysis
You can actually use the Dark Path caves 4 times. The fourth one on either side removes one piece near the front and one piece near the end.
is the one piece real?
The one piece is real
now mortar finally gets my respect
i feel like the pop and awe is actually gonna be a staple of my single lane runs because the dps rivals the tech terrors ability level of round clearing

yo what😭
woah woah woah hold up
What do you mean by that
😟

3:42 “you don’t actually to click”
Thank you isab for popping in awe.
ISAB never fails to destroy our bottom paths
1:05 festivals and beer
You can actually use each removal 4 times, there are cracked walls by the entrance.
I find it funny that I saw someone say that it was a nerf since they only understood the slight damage nerf and didn't even realize the attack speed buff
The level 7 ability actually allows you to micro multiple mortars at once easier
The amount of white blast your pop and awe has launched in the entrance of this dark path is unbelievable
haha the dog rolling in the snow the entire time
striker jones' dog getting that INSANE workout
Isab always fails to say 'Druid of the jungle'
"you dont actually to click" such true words 😔

I wish the follow touch targeting was not a ability on a hero and it was a mortar targeting permanently
hop on to battles 2, mortar follow mouse is there
@@Exshemno,i want it in btd 6
Isab popping his shells in me leaves me in awe, thanks ISAB
This is my first time seeing this make and honestly the concept of a “dark” alternate of an already existing level is really cool
"Druid of the Jungle and single lane maps, name a better duo"

3:43 "You don't actually to click."
ISAB got such a calm voice i allways watch one of his vids to fall asleep
the 3:34 music timing 😩
Shouldve called the video “0:03 Pop and awe got an AWESOME buff” or something😭
Isab never fails to produce very amazing and well produced content nothing related to shooting his shells into our entrances😍
"Because this isn't really an advanced map"
Me, who just black bordered it: :(
6:51 you can actually do it up to 4 times [both bottom and top]
4th one breaks the cracked wall near the start
Finally, mortars getting the love they deserve
Is anyone even concerned about that the monkey firing the Pop And Awe 💀
I used Etienne to make the mortar able to damage EVERYTHING which worked out pretty well.
I'm fine with Follow Mouse being Striker locked.

even before the latest buff, Mortar has become our fav tower, especially Artillery Batter and Pop & Awe
this buff is great for us
but yeah Dark Path was made to showcase mortar. its like Moon Landing but more concise
Strikers new ability to follow mouse.
ISAB: Proceed to make old fashion micro.
The fact he nearly 2MP with pop and awe by accident shows how amazing this tower is this update…
ISAB: guys look striker jones got a new follow touch ability so you dont have to micro as much
also ISAB: *micros anyways*
Casually nearly does a 2mil pop challenge with pop and awe
Mortar is my favourite tower and its nice to see pop and awe finally not being laughably weak
Did he forget that Striker's ability resets cooldowns?
level 20 striker doubles damage
I swear to god I just decided to meme and use a mortar strat after not playing for a year and this is why it worked flawlessly I guess
"You don't actually to click"
Nothing feels better than Isab exploding into my dark path
It's crazy that earlier today I did chimps with this exact same setup, no idea that pop and awe got buffed either
When that map dropped i used pop and awe to black border it as well. The first time i used a strategy isab used later.
Dark path is such a easy advanced map that i got r300 imppopable without even putting vtsg on water for flagship buff… and the bads never even got past the middle circle
I ate a nacho cheese Doritos locos taco while watching isab pop balloons today
U can remove 4 things not 3, the final removal opens a pretty decent spot at the start of the track.
you can break 4 walls on the top one, it breaks a wall by the entrance of the map
I think it can also be good in boss runs because of the extra boss damage it gets.
Nah, it doesnt come close to a mad or aow in single target damage
you can also do this on balance with sauda in the middle
"now will beat round 40 really easily"
also him: almost dies
I always LOVES Altillery Battery and Pop and Awe, so I'm really happy that it gets some more love and recognition now.
ISAB never fails to fire his mortar into us
With the attack speed increase, Pop and Awe would be extremely good with Pbrew and 0002 sun god
Eh. It already is doing over 10 damage per attack if the target is stunned. I'd rather just focus on stunning as much stuff as possible.
Thank you Isab por posting everyday
I'm guessing mortar was one of the least used towers. Nice to see it get some love.
And it's even better with Striker Jones' new ability!
Isab videos make me pop and awe all over my screen 😊
Pop in awe*
@@Whiskers--5Pop and Awe
Pop & Awe + Permabrew would be insane.
ISAB content in my feed, what a day.
You can break 4 times with the caves actually. There is a fourth stone. I love isab
11:30 Out of context ISAB
artillery battery was already quite insane, now it might be one of the best towers for a good amount of maps
Especially now that it carries to a super strong lategame lol
this would be op when paired with a bloon crush and/or perma brew
thank you isab for pop and aweing the bloons
For this map, I did pop and awe, u-jugg and super brittle with etn. It was very💯💯
You can stuff small towers at the entrance
Imagine them budfing quincy ridicculously for the memes
3:42. You don't actually to click 💀💀💀
Love to see NK give mortar t5s some love. Now buff Blooncin my beloved please
Blooncin is already hella strong. Does massive moab damage
we need more respect for the pop and awe monkey pushing the button 20 times a second
Easily one of my favorite DPS options now, Permacharge but with global damage and a better ability
thank you isab for popping your shell in our dark path
My boy is shining, good to see it.
Did they have to change the Bloon Buster icon to add the yellow bloon pieces because it does 1 more damage now?
Here's a challenge idea: Use only spooky/scary looking towers to beat a halloween themed map on chimps
thank you isab for popping the awe
7:01 wait you can remove them?
you can save up to pbrew now right? could be a nice combo given p&a's attack speed
You mentioned the removables but you can actually do it 4 times, it removes parts closer to the beginning of the track
Six time
I feel like pop and awe with super brittle would be nutty
New Treo unlocked Striker Jones pop and awe, and bloon crush
Thank you ISAB for popping the bloons.
Ngl the music at the beginning slapped
Imagine with relentless glue with their mini stuns haha
I’m going to be honest ez money is just expert maps on easy mode 300 cash per win we’ll just expert maps in general even bigger tip pick the water maps such as the castle one and flooded field just farm 4000k to get 0-4-0 pirate monkey to 1 shot it
Bloon crush + pop and awe gonna be the most op combo? Infinite stun and extra damage?
the follow mouse targetting might make boss with mortar dps only a viable (if painful) video idea
Bosses move so slow, you can just target manually lol
Lets not lie to ourselves, if the follow cursor tatgeting was a default we probably wouldnt use it anyway cuz too much micro
The crevasse is bottomless, imagine if the mortar shells just fell straight through 😅
considering it's a mortar playthrough, should've gotten a shattering shells
Mortar has always been cool on paper, but it's too niche to be viable on a lot of maps. Glad to see the buffs.
also i think striker jones is the second hero to get a level 7 ability after Ezeli
i used pop and awe on balance map... yeah bloons probably gonna have worse ptsd than my I-ring run
