'''Archer's Instinct''' is a [[Power (BCS)|Power]] card in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. It allows the player to draw three cards and choose one to add to their hand. The other two are sent to the bottom of the deck. The player is allowed to play a two-charge Archer's Instinct if their hand is full, which will also allow the hand to overflow past 8 cards (up to 11). It can only be used in [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] decks.

**Compared to [[Amelia (BCS)|Amelia]], Quincy has the most possible Pick X via Archer's Instinct, even with Amelia's [[For My Next Trick]] and [[Bubble Time!]] (up to 30 via three of both cards, vs 36 with three Archer's Instincts); she is limited to up to 30<!--5*6, 6 bc she has 2 types of pick x cards with up to 3, but fmnt is 2 and bubble is 3--> possible card picks, but Quincy can pick up to 36.<!--6*6-->
*Compared to other Pick cards, Archer's Instinct is the cheapest and comes with two charges instead of one, but has no special effect based on the card picked.
**Quincy has the most possible pickable cards via Archer's Instinct, for up to 18 possible picks, and with the fewest cards needed to tie with Heroes with more than one type of Pick card ([[Amelia the Amazing (BCS)|Amelia]] and [[Ezili (BCS)|Ezili]]).
*Archer’s Instinct is an extremely powerful OTK tool, as Archer’s Instinct allows Quincy to cycle through a large amount of your deck.
*Searching for cards like [[Improved Fortification]], [[Fortify]], [[Rare Power]], and other non-rare or non-ultra rare powers is easiest with Archer’s Instinct.
*Quincy should use this in most of his decks going later on, due to the sheer amount of cards he can cycle through, allowing Quincy faster OTKs than other Heroes.
*To ease playing this card, avoid being at full hand with a 2-charge Archer's Instinct. Play it before the hand becomes full, so the second charge can be played later on.

  • Archer's Instinct is best used in the early to midgame to draw out potentially strong cards sooner, especially finishers such as Quick Ready. The caveat is the exclusivity to Quincy.
  • Compared to other Pick cards, Archer's Instinct is the cheapest and comes with two charges instead of one, but has no special effect based on the card picked.
    • Quincy has the most possible pickable cards via Archer's Instinct, for up to 18 possible picks, and with the fewest cards needed to tie with Heroes with more than one type of Pick card (Amelia and Ezili).
  • Archer’s Instinct is an extremely powerful OTK tool, as Archer’s Instinct allows Quincy to cycle through a large amount of your deck.
  • Searching for cards like Improved Fortification, Fortify, Rare Power, and other non-rare or non-ultra rare powers is easiest with Archer’s Instinct.
  • Quincy should use this in most of his decks going later on, due to the sheer amount of cards he can cycle through, allowing Quincy faster OTKs than other Heroes.
  • To ease playing this card, avoid being at full hand with a 2-charge Archer's Instinct. Play it before the hand becomes full, so the second charge can be played later on.
