'''RAPID''' (short for '''Razor Air Performance Improving Drone'''<ref>{{cite|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/NinjaKiwiOfficial/comments/1l4gxo3/whats_up_at_ninja_kiwi_6th_june_2025_blog/|title=What's Up At Ninja Kiwi - 6th June 2025 Blog|publisher=Reddit|retrieved=5 jun 2025}}</ref>) is a [[Bloon (BCS)|Basic Bloon]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. It is [[immobile]] and starts with 50 [[Shield (BCS)|Shield]]. At the start of each of the player's [[turn]]s, it reduces the delay of the last Bloon in the player's Bloon track that does not have the immobile property (including itself) by 1. Only one copy of this card can be in the Collection.

It is [[immobile]] and starts with 70 [[Shield (BCS)|Shield]]. At the start of each of the player's [[turn]]s, it reduces the delay of the last Bloon in the player's Bloon track that does not have the immobile property (including itself) by 1. Only one copy of this card can be in the Collection.

The card artwork depicts a RAPID flying in a cloudy sky. A [[Red Bloon]] is behind the front and is following the RAPID as the RAPID leaves a white motion trail.

==Tips==

*RAPID is a cheaper alternative to using conventional delay reducers (especially [[Quick Ready]]) and can reduce delay of bloons gradually, but is limited to the bloons at the back of the queue and is vulnerable to burst damage and powerful board clears.

*RAPID is a cheaper alternative to using conventional delay reducers (especially [[Quick Ready]]) and can reduce delay of bloons gradually, but is limited to the bloons at the back of the queue and is vulnerable to burst damage and powerful board clears. An opponent that sees a RAPID will often prioritize this Bloon over the others.

**As a [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay]] aggro player, having the [[Rad Bloon]] with a RAPID can help push that Bloon while the opponent may struggle with many one-delay Bloons.

*Because the RAPID cannot target Bloons that are Immobile, a RAPID could be paired with multiple other Immobile Bloons such as [[ARBITR]] and extra RAPIDs (via [[Double Trouble (BCS)|Double Trouble]], or stolen RAPID from [[Bloon Redirect]]).
