Gum Balloon

Gum Balloon is a Gum Shoot in Ninjala that takes the form of large balloons with a spiky dome attached to the bottom. When fired it hones in on targets and explode after landing resulting into dealing Gum Damage. Based on the Units of S-Energy and therefore the size of the Gum Bubble up to 3 balloons can be shot. A small sized Gum Shoot consists of a single balloon, a mid sized of two and a large Gum Shoot of three. Without any auxilaries, meaning no Shinobi Card or anything alike to increase the Gum Damage, three balloons are needed to Gum Bind an opponent.

Gum Balloon has after Gum Ghost the best homing ability. Drones and opponents are aimable. When there is no target in sight, the balloons begin to disperse and pop after a few seconds. When homing to a moving target, an opponent, however, it stays alive longer making it to a great pressure tool. If the opponent Gum Guards the Balloons, depending on the number of balloons there is a longer block stun which can be taken advantage of to Break the Gum Guard. 
== Priority ==
The big downside of the Gum Balloon is its priority over other Gum Shoots. It can be easily wiped out by a lot of Gum Shoots such as Gum Launcher or Gum Boomerang. Gum Ghost however cannot wipe out the Balloons.
=== Versus other Projectile Attacks ===
The projectile attack priority list can be found here.
Gum Balloon loses to all projectiles including Thunder Cannon. Normally Thunder Cannon trades with every projectile and cannot wipe them out. Everything except for Gum Balloon. The other exceptional projectile Special Attacks, Cannon Bomber and Fiery Raid however cannot stop the Balloons. So Gum Balloons can go through.
