The '''Mortar Monkey''' is a [[Military]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. Instead of its attacks being controlled by the player, it automatically attacks a random [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] on the opponent's side at the end of the player's turn. If given additional Ammo by [[Try this!]], it will use Ammo as many times as it can at the end of a turn.

Instead of its attacks being controlled by the player, it automatically attacks a random [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] on the opponent's side (or [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]] if possible) at the end of the player's turn. If given additional ammo, it will use ammo as many times as it can at the end of a turn.


==Tips==
==Tips==
*The Mortar Monkey is a very cost efficient tower, dealing 40 damage per turn.
{{outdated|v6.4 updation needed}}
*If dealing with a Mortar as an opponent, [[Swarm Red Bloon]]s can make the mortar waste its shots more often.
{{BCS last updated|5.1|section=y}}
*The Mortar Monkey is a somewhat cost efficient attacker, dealing 40 damage per turn. However, its shots are completely random and can only attack at the end of a turn.
** [[Dart Monkey Twins]] with both charges has a higher damage-per-Gold ratio, at 50 DPT, and the common [[Alchemist Monkey (BCS)|Alchemist Monkey]] does more DPT for the same cost, with only delayed damage as an issue.
*If dealing with an opposing Mortar, [[Swarm Red Bloon]]s can make the mortar waste its shots more often.

==Strategy==
Initially when the game was in its early days, basic Mortar was meant to be a high damage option with its only downside being its randomness.<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> The evolution of the game made Mortar far less relevant with options such as [[Dart Monkey Twins]] and [[Barrel of Monkeys]] becoming available and serving more raw damage with the option to manually target Bloons.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" /> Version 6.4 changed Mortar to become cheaper, as the cheapest Military Monkey that now has a niche as a fodder for [[War Bonds]] in Striker decks.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" /> Additionally, the Mortar was proposed to have a damage buff, but ultimately only got a cost reduction to give it a new role that no other Military Monkey had at the time, plus standing out as being the highest ATK option costing 1 Gold among any Monkey.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" />
