*Unlike spamming [[Red Bloon (BCS)|Red Bloon]]s and [[Swarm Red Bloon]]s, Red Bloon Storm is guaranteed to cover the entire board, but for a high cost. Best used if there are many open slots for Bloons, and preferably used for combos.
*Unlike [[Red Bloon Apopalypse]] which has the goal of clogging the opponent's Bloon queue at the cost of clogging your own, Red Bloon Storm clogs the user's board for 4 Gold. Playing this card slows down aggression, so it must be used with swarm synergies like [[Bloon Embiggen]] or [[Bolstered Bloon]] to be worth it. It is a risky card, but the total health and damage is higher than other Bloons around its price.
*Red Bloon Storm + [[Bloon Embiggen]] is a complete OTK without board clears such as [[Spike Storm!]], [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]]'s Flurry of Arrows ability, [[Firestorm]], and [[Thunder Druid]].
*Due to the nerf to Red Bloon increasing its delay from 1 to 2, the Reds will clog the [[Storm (BCS)|Storm]], and they can be easily popped with splash damage or other cheap board clearing powers like [[Spike Storm!]] or [[Firestorm (BCS)|Firestorm]].
**With all 8 Reds buffed, this is 520 damage to Hero in one turn, if not accounting for defensive Monkeys, Quincy's passive, or Adora's passive.
*Red Bloon Storm can be made free with Amelia's [[Amelia the Amazing (BCS)|Act of Power]]. Although not highly recommended due to the slow speed of Red Bloon Storm, it can be used if combined with something like [[Bolstered Bloon]]. [[Undead Army]] is typically better, however.
*If the screen is almost empty, a [[Bolstered Bloon]] + Red Bloon Storm is a guaranteed way to maximise the Bolstered Bloon's health boosts, in addition to the Red Bloon Storm's usual threat of swarms.
*Red Bloon Storm pairs well with [[Bloon Embiggen]], but still bad compared to spamming Greens and Yellows since the version 3.4 Red delay nerfs.  
*Reds have 2 delay, which makes it harder to spawn new bloons. However, it could potentially give time to wait for a [[Bloon Embiggen]] during the early-game.
**If none of the eight Reds are damaged at all, Bloon Embiggen can do enough damage to cause 520 damage,<!--65*8=520--> enough to defeat the opponent in one turn. This is extremely rare, as most decks have some kind of Monkey to defend with.

Red Bloon Storm was proposed by a community playtester to have its Gold cost reduced from 6 to 3, but Ninja Kiwi increased it to 4.[1] Before reducing its Gold cost from 6 to 4, Red Bloon Storm was considered one of the worst cards for being an active detriment in aggro decks and serving no practical purpose in other decks.[2] Some community playtesters noted that Red Bloon Storm is now more comparable to Undead Army,[2] a similar card that is slower but lacks the board blockage.
