The '''Hastening Bloon''' is an Advanced [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. When placed, it reduces the Delay of a random Bloon on the player's side by 1.
'''Hastening Bloon''' is an [[Bloon (BCS)|Advanced Bloon]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. When played, it reduces the delay of a random other Bloon on the player's side by 1, to a minimum of 0. The affected Bloon moves towards the queue in order of recentness (i.e. oldest go first). It cannot target Bloons that are already at 0 delay, cannot target [[Immobile]] Bloons, and if there are no Bloons it can target, the effect doesn't play.
 
The card artwork depicts a Hastening Bloon creating a whirlwind near a green-colored Bloon<!--unless it's actually the Green Bloon itself, this should stay as "green-colored Bloon"--> at a desert. According to the development sheets from Aimee Cairn's NZGDC presentation of ''BCS'', the Hastening Bloon was based on the [[Yellow Bloon (BCS)|Yellow Bloon]].
 
==Tips==
{{outdated|v6.4 possibly much different in how to play, now that multi-hastening is less annoying to pull off}}
{{BCS last updated|6.4|section=y}}
*Like [[Quick Ready]], Hastening Bloon can reduce a bloon's delay to 0, but costs 1 less Gold. It being a Bloon means it also generates 6 Bloontonium and leaves behind a 120 health threat on the field. The downside of it compared to Quick Ready is that it affects a random Bloon, so it is best used in strategies that either don’t care about what Hastening hits or when it’s guaranteed to target one specific Bloon.
**If there's exactly one possible candidate, Hastening Bloon will guarantee to reduce delay of that Bloon.
**[[Storm (BCS)|Storm]] Bloons can disrupt Hastening Bloon’s targeting on your own Bloons. Be wary of the storm when planning to use Hastening Bloon.
*If looking for reducing the delay of a bloon with two delay to zero, such as any 1 delay bloon with [[Improved Fortification]], or [[Triple Threat Bloon]], it is recommended that only one Hastening Bloon is relied on before using [[Quick Ready]], as playing more than one Hastening Bloon may end up reducing the delay of the first Hastening Bloon instead of the desired bloon.
*The Hastening Bloon itself is hardly a threat, and using multiple Hastenings for pressure can be unreliable. It still does put stats on the field which can be used for small amounts of pressure in Tempo strategies.
**At 120 Health at base, it has enough Health to be stolen by [[Bloon Redirect]].
*Hastening Bloon cannot use its effect on 0 delay or Immobile Bloons, which helps improve the odds of Hastening hitting what you want it to.
 
==Update history==
{{BCS change list by name|Hastening Bloon}}
 
==Development==
The Version 6.2 buffs to Hastening Bloon were not tested in the Version 6.2 playtest.
 
Version 6.4 rework for Hastening Bloon makes it more consistent for its role as a delay reducer but as a Bloon.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5RCsiqq--s|title=6.4 Tester Commentary - Bloons Card Storm|publisher=YouTube|author=OdysseyTOS}}</ref> More specifically, OdysseyTOS has stated that this rework removes an inconsistency where stacking Hastening Bloons would keep targeting Hastening Bloons, even after ending a turn to follow up one Hastening Bloon with more of that card.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" /> Having 1 delay makes multi-Hastening tactics more viable.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" /> As implied by 1 delay Bloons being so powerful in aggro, Hastening Bloon was nerfed in Health to not become a dominant pick in aggro to the point where it is always better than [[Quick Ready]], despite OdysseyTOS's tester commentary not mentioning explicitly why not having the Health nerf would make Hastening too good.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" />
