2v2 Strategy: The Bombshell Bounce

The main downfall (besides cost) is positioning it! Since you can't shell and fire on the same turn, you normally can only fire every other turn if the combat is moving.

In 2v2, it is possible for a Bombshell to fire on two successive turns against enemies in two different parts of the map thanks to a little move I like to call the 'Bombshell Bounce'!

When playing as the Adorables, with a partner who is playing Scallywags, it is possible to use a Mobi to suck up a SHELLED Bombshell and deposit it next to the Mobi, STILL SHELLED and ready to fire! This can allow one Bombshell to cover a wide range!

See this replay for an example of this in action!

Pretty tough to survive both bases at one like that. Luckily at least one of your opponents thought he could win it with a runner spam. I love when they do that. If orange would've just skipped a turn and saved the wits, I think he could've popped a Shell in the indefensible spot (where you had yours at the end) and finished you off. Nicely done in the end.
