Boomshroom

Boomshrooms are volatile living fungi that live in the Faery Forest in Kingdom Rush: Origins.
==Overview==
A very unstable variety of mushroom that explodes when threatened.
Boomshrooms are individually weak but fast and extremely numerous: though they only have 75 HP and no resistance, they usually come in huge groups of 10 or more, making Druids essential to deal with them.
However, the real danger comes when they are killed. When killed or blocked, Boomshrooms violently explode, dealing 40 physical area damage. While it might not seem that much, Boomshrooms are extremely numerous, so the damage can quickly rack up - enough to kill soldiers and heroes if one isn't careful.
They can be transformed into Munchshroom by Fungus Breeder.
==Strategy==
* Weirdwood is the bane of Boomshrooms: a single nut is almost guaranteed to instantly deplete the mushrooms' low health count, and Clobber, even at tier 1, can squash multiple of them at once. The Boomshrooms' relatively average speed would not allow them to dodge pass the deadly nuts.
* In times of emergency, one can deploy units to block the Boomshrooms and sponge the damage from explosions; however, even Forest Keepers can only take on a limited number of mushrooms before dying due to their lack of armor, thus beware.
* Bladesingers with a maxed Perfect Parry can tank several boomshrooms in a single parry with a bit of luck; however, this can prove to be inconsistent at times.
==Appearances==
* Neverwonder
* The Unseelie Court
==Trivia==
* The Boomshroom, along with the Munchshroom and the Fungus Breeder, have purple blood.
