{{research|does Corvus Academy of Arts block damage even if the damage is reduced enough by Ghostly Armor to reach 0?}}
'''Corvus Academy of Arts''' is a [[Support]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. It is [[temporary]] and instead of being able to attack, each time the player's [[Hero (BCS)|Hero]] would've taken an attack from any source (including [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s, face damage cards such as [[Bloon Strike]], [[Badlands (BCS)|Badlands]]'s map effect, leaked [[Sentinel Bloon]]s, and damage reduced to 0 by [[Ghostly Armor]]), it consumes 1 ammo and prevents the Hero from losing health. If a Bloon leaks while also having [[Hero Protection]], the Corvus Academy protection effect is consumed first.

*This card is awful on Badlands, as the map effect’s damage triggers it and wastes ammo. If it must be used, use it on the round just before the expected leak.

*Sentinel Bloons are a hard counter to Corvus Academy of Arts. Popping or leaking to a Sentinel Bloon inevitably triggers it, even though leaking it does no damage normally. Few methods can counter this Bloon without wasting this Monkey.
*If playing as [[Ezili (BCS)|Ezili]] and while Corvus Academy of Arts still has Ammo, avoid using Sacrificial Totem, and avoid picking a Monkey when using [[Monkey Summons]] (unless you have no empty Monkey space).
