I don’t know about it, who has tested it?
I didn’t test it but with stun nerf is not a great choice
I think some people like unown have gotten some nice results with it, specifically when pairing it with zeuswyrm, because he stuns his own team. Frankly I’m glad this thing isn’t widely accessible because I reeeally don’t want to deal with that on a regular basis lol
I’ve bought it and have been using it to great effect this PvP.
You can’t potion it, so the 93% speed is roughly equivalent to 85%+9. Counter strike does the kind of damage to 2-3 shot earth monsters (depending on their defence and health). Purify is surprisingly useful, always a great thing to have on a monster.
The fuse explosion deals enough damage to one-shot almost everything… just not some earth monsters or the very tanky ones like Doomengine.
It works as a very high speed stun flash, but outside of these PvP rules almost everyone has stun protection in their front line so it’s probably a lot better mid-game. As far as stun protection goes, it’s top notch but can definitely be killed by a strong strike. If you think what it takes to deal 1/2 the health to your typical legendary, that’s what it takes to kill it. Doing non-critical moves against it typically takes 2 or 3 hits to kill it (e.g. Dracorosa’s defang will kill it in 2 because it’s earth).
Overall, I’d say it’s a great stun absorber for link storm teams that is well worth the 7 cost and helps keep the cost of the team down so you can have more legendaries in it. You only need link storm for the entry, but you might want to delay the link stun flash with a purify or two first to get the best timing (which btw purify is amazing for passing time like that).
I will say that my current team is utilising it perfectly, being both a storm stun team revolved around timestrike moves at the start and also having Zeuswyrm to sometimes trigger the explosion + give a turn to Tygoron. If there’s any stun from the enemy team which they use or I can trigger then Roar will easily trigger the explosion… usually there’s something around which stuns me.
Why do I not face you?? You would instantly lose to OoO
Bulbieboom has purify, Drakozord Z has purifying mist with high speed and hold ground. Also, the Oniblade + thlugs teams I’m able to stun pulse the Oniblade with my Galvbane before it gets a turn. Unless their Oniblade is potted to +5 or higher the Bulbieboom usually goes first and can do the stunning itself. My team has been countering the various OoO teams this PvP very effectively. I haven’t actually lost to any of them.
Stratustrike on the other hand… yup that would be annoying to come up against. Also, if someone has stun protection for their Oniblade that isn’t Gearcroc then they can get their OoO off against me.

Oniblade? Stratustrike? Nah, this is the boy that people sleep on (pun intented):

Also, link stun flash would be irrelevant because I always rub blue flutterdrake. Your Z lord is in the fifth raw which will not even get a turn. So unless I get unlucky and I don’t put your lamp into sleep, he becomes useless.
Well I hope I don’t meet you! Not to get defensive over my team but I’m not quite sure what the point is you’re trying to get at. Of course there are counters to my team… there are counters to every team! You said my team was weak to OoO so I pointed out the bits which actually counter it fairly nicely (in most cases). If your team gets around these counters then that’s great, but this thread is talking about Bulbieboom.
He’s trying to theorycraft himself a win most likely.

But my team isn’t a counter to yours. Lol
What I meant was I wish I would face you to get a free win. that’s it.

The first time I faced this thing was against @Zardecil and it was basically a bronze shell for him that match because I don’t run boring stun bs
Yeah I’ve moved away from it since then.

I got to a winrate of 79 % with my OoO Oniblade team this pvp and I can tell you that youre misjudging a few things here. Lets say all goes well and bulbie doesnt stay awake. If youre Elizabeth Chan I faced you. You could probably remove the AP and Drako with Bunker but then you have zeus and tygo who would tear apart your team. He then transfers into bloom + AP Spam which buys him enough time to remove any stun protection you have and therefor his endgame will hit you like a brick wall. He is actually very well protected from stun even making a combeback will be very difficult. Your only chance would be to gain a significant advantage and make sure he cannot remove your stun protection. Otherwise you will lose, even if youre far in front and KD has only four monsters left. If you dont believe me, you can ask @LemonSqueezy 
Don’t you start @ItsSherlock 
I got complacent that’s all 
KD knows it too 
The one time I won vs KD, it was arguable that it was even a victory given that KD DCed. We both think we won that one haha.
Whomever Kdogg is though, he’s lost many many times.
Woah, you completely sussed out how my team works! Btw Drakozord gets a turn in roughly 43s so unless Bunkerbeast is accelerated or potted fully it will struggle to kill it with the instant reload piercing mortar.
That match was beautiful! A complete replica of what happened in the PvP tournament with very similar teams involved (our battle together there was with the current PvP rule). It’s easy to ignore how Novadrake gets a turn so quickly (~50s) and will stun your whole team by 150s when it does. If you don’t have stun protection you have to very carefully line up a kill on it otherwise my team will completely take control of the match and you won’t get another turn. The auto-protect monsters are sneaky with their sleep bombs which I can use to get to Dracorosa then purifying mist and sweep as I please and almost always Blossomight has entered so I can petal blitz three times.
Yup haha, better to call it a draw. Even if I did have all my sweepers charged so I could kill something like 5 monsters every 110s (Nova, Draco, Blossomight)… 
I don’t think you did sleepbomb me though. All I had to do was kill Draco before blossom enters and I wouldn’t have needed to worry about stun. If i’m that far ahead again, I won’t let you back in
you’re right though. They were both amazing matches. It just hurts because it does replicate the tournament as you say
You know, I have pumking too to remove a whole front line, right? Wanna tell me what is your name ingame? Im pretty sure I have never faced “guesswhosback”.
Chris, if you have time, we can do a custom match so I can show how my team works. I don’t wanna just share it because that is the best I can make with what I got. So making sure that I don’t get countered by everyone.
I just played you, testing a new frontline. GG
