Still having issues with bombshell

I would use thorns to protect your units from the shell if you're forced to fight around it, it can't shoot over them. Otherwise I'd harass the area away from the shell like crazy, cover spawns with thorns, take wit spaces, all that good stuff, and try to get them to move the shell around and waste wits.

The main issue I can see is how easily a Bombshell can clear out thorns. Unlike every other unit in the game, a Bombshell can potentially clear out multiple Thorns per shot, nullifying any Wit advantage the Bramble is hoping to generate near the opponent's base. The Veggies player is forced to sit tight and wait for the Bombshell to move himself, especially in maps like Sharkfood and Peekaboo.
