Weakening Gas Bloon is a Large Bloon card in Bloons Card Storm. Each time it takes damage from a Monkey, including from instant-damage effects like the Thunder Druid's On Play effect or Blade Maelstrom's On Turn End effect, it reduces that Monkey's ATK by 5. Taking damage from lingering effects, like On Fire and Acid Pool, does not affect the Monkey that inflicted it.

The card artwork depicts a tired monkey failing to throw a dart while surrounded by gas emitted from the Weakening Gas Bloon.

  • Weakening Gas Bloon punishes towers with multiple or random targeting, such as Triple Shot, Arcane Master, or Mortar Monkeys.
  • If fighting against a Weakening Gas Bloon, prioritize damaging it with hero abilities and powers, as it cannot affect those. If not possible, use high damage monkeys so that the damage reduction is less effective.

Update history

Although the effect is annoying, its low amount of health made this thing not really that easy to actually get any value out of. And, although its effect, again, is annoying, it really wasn't that strong of an effect to warrant such a low amount of stats, especially compared to MOAB [...] which is the same cost as it, but also has a second charge, and had over 200 health higher than it. Now it only has 100 more health, making Weakening Gas maybe a little bit better to see use on its own.

  • Buff Health increased ― 300 → 400

Development

[edit | edit source]

Weakening Gas Bloon has its Health improved to be a more viable alternative to MOAB while still being a noteworthy threat and be more valued for the actual ATK reduction benefit.[1]
