One interesting thing about Blam! is that it makes the edge of the board exciting. With most games the egdeedge is less active because of limited adjacency, but Blam! makes the edge a critical game element and gives it a different flavor apart from other abstracts (though Blam! is likely not unique in this regard).
 
Also, a major element to winning Blam! is to maintain a positive piece count ahead of your opponents. Keeping a few more pieces in your stash can lead to a massive points sweep in the endgame. Assertions have been made that piece count trumps point total.
