The '''Bionic Boomerang''' is a [[Primary]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. It starts with 2 extra Ammo when placed, for a total of four when initially played, but it only gets 2 Ammo per Reload. If a reloading Bionic Boomerang is affected by [[Expert Negotiator]], it gains 2 Ammo from its current ammo amount, effectively reloading its normal Ammo amount rather than doubling it.
'''Bionic Boomerang''' is a [[Primary]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. It starts with 2 [[Temporary Ammo]] when played, in addition to its regular ammo.
 
The card art depicts a Bionic Boomerang<!--link to disambig or nah?--> attaching its bionic right arm at a factory. The artwork was created by Warwick Urquhart.<ref>https://woricart.weebly.com/</ref>


==Tips==
==Tips==
*Bionic Boomerang's bonus ammo on play is helpful as a burst of defense.  
{{BCS last updated|6.4|section=y}}
*A reloading Bionic Boomerang targeted by Expert Negotiator will not start with 4 Ammo, but instead effectively reload, as its On Play effect gives it 2 Ammo. Thus, using Negotiator on a Bionic Boomerang should take this into account.
*Bionic Boomerang's On Play effect gives it strong burst damage. It is very effective for shutting down opponent's rushes during the early-to-midgame, especially with [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay]]'s Rad Enhancements.
*Bionic Boomerang has the second highest burst damage from the 1–6 cost range, making it one of the best methods for countering Aggro or early Tempo strategies. The only card with more damage is [[Robo Monkey (BCS)|Robo Monkey]] with its [[Defender]] bonus.
**Aggro users should add Gold sabotage cards such as [[Fright Night]] or [[Eco Drain]] if wanting to avoid an opponent's Bionic Boomerang. If they do not have these cards, being wary and not fully committing if the opponent has or will have 6 Gold is the next best option.
*Bionic Boomerang's high ammo on play enables flexible targeting, allowing it to do things like pop two [[Sentinel Bloon|Sentinel Bloons]] and a [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]] by itself, even on [[Map (BCS)|Dark Castle]].
*After its initial burst of damage, it remains a decent Monkey that is worth keeping on the field. It deals 5 less damage per turn in comparison to something like [[Night Vision Sniper]], but it still does a solid enough 50 DPT.
*In [[Boss Battle (BCS)|Boss Battle]]s against [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]], Bionic Boomerang does great burst damage if Armor is not present. One Bionic Boomerang plus [[Berserker Brew (BCS)|Berserker Brew]] does enough damage to one-shot [[Rock Bloon (BCS)|Rock Bloon]]s, including Stage 1 Dreadbloon's Rock Bloons from up to phase 3 if they don't have extra Armor.
*Bionic Boomerang will need a little more support to pop a [[RAPID]] in one turn, such as having another shot from a Monkey or being on Game Night.

Version 6.4 reduced the Bionic Boomerang's ATK, due to how versatile it was as anti-aggro and for a variety of deck archetypes.<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> According to OdysseyTOS, the user who posted their test commentary, the 220 damage burst instead of 200 was a little too much.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" /> It should be noted that [[RAPID]] was also buffed and a Bionic Boomerang can no longer destroy it in one turn without any ATK bonus.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" />
