Tips
[edit | edit source]This section was last updated for: version 6.4
- Fright Night costing Bloontonium to steal Gold makes it stand out in aggro decks, which typically gain a steady production of Bloontonium primarily from Bloons. Stealing Gold prevents the opponent from countering with a strong card while storing Gold as a saveup.
- As a Common, it's easy to unlock and use for new players.
- Check the opponent's cash combined with the current eco to predict what they're saving up for, to weaken the opponent the most with this card.
- On Bloontonium Refinery, Its possible to play Blooming Bloon and immediately use this card to prevent any 5 or 6 cost answers to it as player 2 on turn 2.
Update history
[edit | edit source]
Gold steal decreased ― 4 → 2
Bloontonium cost decreased ― 9 → 8
Development
[edit | edit source]Initially, Fright Night was proposed by community playtesters to be reworked to cost 7 Bloontonium instead of 9 but steal only 2 Gold instead of 4.[1] This change was reverted by Ninja Kiwi for unknown reasons,[1] despite Fright Night being a banned card in the Ninja Kiwi official sponsored tournament hosted several months before then.[1]
This balance change returned for Version 6.4 but with the cost being 8 Bloontonium instead.[2] The main reason was to limit the swing of this Bloontonium power but make it a bit easier to afford; it still retains the swing but is less immediately impactful for winning the game, especially in aggro.[2] Tests for the original proposal were performed by community testers, but found that increasing it to 8 will prevent Player 2 on Turn 3 from playing Fright Night outside of Bloontonium Refinery and Player 1 on Turn 2 in Bloontonium Refinery, to improve Player 1 vs 2 dynamics.[3]
