'''Shield''' is a game mechanic in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'' that acts as an additional layer of health for [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s and [[Hero (BCS)|Heroes]]. If a Bloon or Hero with a Shield takes damage, the Shield takes damage first. Bloons and Heroes with a Shield are surrounded by a transparent bubble.

'''Shield''' is an effect [[keyword]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'' that adds an additional layer of health to [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s and [[Hero (BCS)|Heroes]]. Unlike health, there is no limit to the amount of Shield a Bloon or Hero can have. If a Bloon or Hero with a Shield takes damage, the Shield takes damage first. Bloons and Heroes with a Shield are surrounded by a transparent bubble. Shields are not affected by [[Armor]].


==Shields on Bloons==
Shields on Bloons increase their health, but do not add to the damage the Bloon deals to the opponent's Hero if it leaks. Shields do not trigger On Damaged keyword effects when taking damage unless the hit also damages the Bloon inside it (i.e., it deals more damage than the Bloon has Shield). Some Bloons, such as the [[Bolstered Bloon]] and [[Buddy Bloon]], start with a certain amount of Shield when played. In the card text, this is written as "Shield <amount>".

Shields on Bloons increase their health, but do not add to the damage the Bloon deals to the opponent's Hero if it leaks. Shields do not trigger On Damaged keyword effects when taking damage unless the hit also damages the Bloon inside it (i.e. deals more damage than the Bloon has Shield).


Some Bloons, such as the [[Bolstered Bloon]] and [[Buddy Bloon]], have an On Play effect that causes them to start with certain amount of Shield. This is displayed in the card's keywords, but not in the card text.
Shields on Heroes block damage caused by Bloons. Heroes can gain Shields from certain cards and Hero Abilities. [[Wall Of Trees]] is unique in that it grants the Hero a Shield and has an effect that triggers the next time it is destroyed.
 
==Shields on Heroes==
[[File:BCS Obyn Shield.png|thumb|150px|Obyn's passive ability grants himself 20 Shield after his turn ends]]
Shields on Heroes block damage caused by Bloons. Unlike health, there is no limit to how much Shield a Hero can have. Heroes can gain Shields from certain cards and abilities.
 
Certain cards contain shields that trigger an effect once destroyed. Of those, only [[Wall Of Trees (BCS)|Wall Of Trees]] is able to do this.
