Mac & Bloo

Mac and Bloo are the stars of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.

Overview
In Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion XL, Mac and Bloo are starter characters who pair up together to create one character. Their in-game bio states Mac and Bloo create a formidable blend of power and range. The problem with both of that is that Mac and Bloo's knockback power is comparable to a 2/5 character and their range isn't even that impressive considering Bloo is being thrown around as a hurtbox.

Punch Time Explosion: Bloonan the Barbarian
Bloo turns into Bloo Superdude and plays his electric guitar, unleashing electrical volts which damage anyone caught in its "awesomeness." Anyone caught will be put in a massive hitlag and constantly receive 3% per hit. Total damage depends on the location of the opponent to Mac and Bloo.

This can be a powerful move due to how large the hitbox is, sometimes being the only reliable kill option for Mac and Bloo at all. Often this PTE is used after an up throw or any other situation where the opponent is above Mac and Bloo and unable to air dodge or are otherwise stuck. The move can also be used at the edge and block off chances of returning to the stage. However, this tactic won't work as effectively against characters who can stall in the air (Captain Planet, Hoss Delgado, Dexter, and potentially Captain K'nuckles or Aku).

Synergy: Peppermint Larry
Peppermint Larry gives Mac and Bloo candy, which causes Mac to go hyper. During this synergy state, Mac and Bloo can walk around freely and damage anyone in contact for 15% (creates 4 power cubes).
