Berserker Brew (BCS): Difference between revisions

'''Berserker Brew''' is a [[Magic]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. When played, a menu prompts the player to select a friendly Monkey other than itself that has an ATK stat,<!--no you cannot target baby monke--> granting it +20 ATK and 3 [[Temporary Ammo]], but causes the target to be [[Doomed]].

*Berserker Brew is most often used for expensive emergency defense when added onto a friendly attacking Monkey that can be safely removed. Time at a round when the big burst of damage is necessary, and use up as much ammo from that Monkey as needed to survive. Once depleted, the buffed Monkey is often replaced with another Monkey, since its Doomed status prevents long-term use, leaving an open space at the start of next turn.<!--there is exneg business but... another point covers this-->

*Berserker Brew can be combined with reload cards such as [[Quick Reload]] and [[Orders Received]], to maximize ammo and the damage buff. Likewise for [[Temporary Ammo]] cards such as [[Extra Shot Bloon (BCS)|Extra Shot Bloon]]. Use these cards after the brew and finishing all the target's ammo first.

*This Alchemist itself has only reasonable damage for 1 delay, equal to a [[Monkey Investigator]] with 5 less ATK. It alone (after buffing another Monkey, otherwise it's inefficient) is still a reliable long-term Monkey versus Dreadbloon, and, notably, two shots are enough to pop [[Rock Bloon (BCS)|Rock Bloon]], where [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]]'s Ammo Stores ensures that each round. However, at 30 ATK, it's vulnerable to [[Bed Time]].

*Its 6 Gold cost allows it to "protect" some Monkeys from computer opponents using removals, which prioritize the most expensive Monkeys, and any [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]] Skulls involving removing the most expensive Monkeys.
