'''Boss Battle''' is an event in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'' introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}} that unlocks at [[level]] 3. In each event, the player can play matches against an AI-controlled [[Boss Bloon]], who functions like an opposing [[Hero (BCS)|Hero]] with a predetermined [[deck]] that can also be targeted and attacked by the player's [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]]s to deal damage, in addition to taking damage from the player's [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s leaking. The boss cannot play its own [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]]s, only [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s and [[Power (BCS)|Power]]s, but has several passive effects in addition to its own abilities and gains more as its health lowers. The player earns points for damaging the boss, and if they defeat it, they earn more points based on the number of [[turn]]s it took. The player's score determines their placement on a leaderboard and contributes to the Global Score to unlock Global Milestone rewards for all players. Each boss has multiple stages with different abilities and decks, which changes based on the Global Score. | '''Boss Battle''' is an event in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'' introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}} that unlocks at [[level]] 3.

In Boss Battle mode, the opponent is a [[Boss Bloon]] that behaves similarly to an AI-controlled [[Hero (BCS)|Hero]]. [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]]s can target the boss with their attacks like a [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] to reduce its health directly, but they cannot apply additional effects to them on hit (such as On Fire or Stunned), and other effects (Hero abilities, [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s, [[Power (BCS)|Power]]s, etc) do not treat them as Bloons. The boss has its own [[deck]], which consists of only Bloon and Power cards (no Monkeys). Boss decks can have cards that are not available to players, such as [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]]'s [[Wrath of Dread]]. | In Boss Battle mode, the opponent is a [[Boss Bloon]] that behaves similarly to an AI-controlled [[Hero (BCS)|Hero]].

The battle is split into multiple phases. When the player reduces the boss's health to zero, it enters the next phase, gains a new health pool, and triggers its Skull Event for that phase. Excess damage dealt by the finishing attack for the phase does not carry over to the next phase. | The battle is split into multiple phases.

Score is based on how fast | *Confirm if, indeed, the final score is only dependent on the current round, and if the formulation is correct. (it seems like turn37 kill phase4 gives 4270 score?) | ||
*Confirm if minimum bonus score is 0. In theory, Turn 151 would cause the lowest score; if this is the case, mention it.}} | |||
Score is based on how fast that the Boss is killed at each stage. Bonus points are appended to the Boss's total Health of combined phases for beating the Boss faster. Round bonus is independent from the score gained from beating Health from the Boss. | |||
The round bonus is carried over and re-calculated each time the player destroys a phase. 5 turn bonus is lost for every 1 extra round that passes. The maximum bonus score is 750, and the maximum total score is 4500 when combined with the 3750 total Health from all phases of the Boss. For example, beating Phase 4 on Turn 37 gives 4270 score. The minimum bonus score is 0, which is achieved by beating a phase on Turn 151 or later. | |||
