'''Double Trouble''' is an [[Power (BCS)|Exotic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. It creates a copy of a target [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] on the player's side. The clone will inherit all properties of the parent (including Health, Delay, Shield, and status effects), but not [[~~stun|stunned~~]], and triggers ~~any~~ On Play effects when it spawns. If the target was played by the player (not from the [[Storm (BCS)|Storm]] or summoned by another Bloon), it generates [[Bloontonium]] equal to its cost.

'''Double Trouble''' is an [[Power (BCS)|Exotic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. It creates a copy of a target [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] on the player's side. The clone will inherit all properties of the parent (including Health, Delay, Shield, and most status effects), but not "cannot attack" from [[Bloon Repair Bot]], and triggers most On Play effects when it spawns. It will never copy the Health gains that the parent initially received from On Play effects, and does not copy [[Golden Blimp]]'s Health gains per Gold spent. If the target was played by the player (not from the [[Storm (BCS)|Storm]], or summoned by another Bloon or Powers), it generates [[Bloontonium]] equal to its cost.

The card artwork depicts a [[Rainbow Bloon]] splitting to create a duplicate of itself due to electrical forces from a laboratory machine.

==Tips==

*Double Trouble stands out for OTK strategies, duplicating a 0-delay bloon for further damage. Double Trouble can also be used to duplicate a powerful bloon for extra pressure.

*If performing a combo with Double Trouble, duplicate a bloon ''after'' buffing it, not before.

Line 31:

**Players can duplicate a [[Draining Bloon]] that already has lots of shield in order to build even more shield for every copy.

**With an Armor-focused deck, duplicating an [[Armor Powered Bloon]] surrounded by friendly Bloons with lots of Armor will keep stacking up HP on its copies.

**[[Soulstealer Bloon]] ~~scales its health the best if there are other Bloons around~~, ~~thus scaling~~ the ~~Health gains further~~.

**[[Soulstealer Bloon]] is a good candidate, allowing it to steal more Health to boost the copy once more.

*Playing a Large Bloon while having [[MOAB Construction Facility|MOAB Construction Facilities]] will trigger these effects again if they have remaining ammo. This is particularly useful on a [[Lead Zeppelin]] that was on the screen for a few turns (one turn with at least 2 Facilities); if the opponent lacks [[Hero Protection]], [[Corvus Academy of Arts]], or plenty of shield (via [[Obyn Greenfoot (BTD6)|Obyn Greenfoot]]), it's OTK.
