'''Mine Supervisor''' is a [[Support]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|3.0}}. At the start of each turn, it generates 1 [[Bloontonium]] per Miner-type Monkey ([[Bloontonium Miner]]s and Mine Supervisors) on the player's side, including itself. | |||

*Mine Supervisor's main strength is in combination with Bloontonium Miners and other Mine Supervisors, | *Mine Supervisor's main strength is generating lots of Bloontonium in combination with Bloontonium Miners and other Mine Supervisors. It is an important Monkey for Heroes that depend on Bloontonium, such as [[Adora (BCS)|Adora]] and [[Mountain Obyn (BCS)|Mountain Obyn]]. | ||
* | *With 3 copies of both Bloontonium Miner and Mine Supervisor, getting their Bloontonium production going in the early game is fairly consistent since the odds of not getting at least one of them in the opening hand after 3 mulligans is very low. | ||
*The lone Mine Supervisor is simply a more expensive | *The optimal combination of miners (3 Mine Supervisors plus 2 Bloontonium Miners) gives 17<!--3*5+2--> Bloontonium at the start of each round. This is enough to generate full Bloontonium or close to full (for [[Gwendolin (BCS)|Gwendolin]], [[Mountain Obyn (BCS)|Mountain Obyn]], [[Amelia the Amazing (BCS)|Amelia]], and [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]]) in a single turn. | ||
* | *The lone Mine Supervisor is simply a more expensive Bloontonium Miner with much better damage, but no immediate Bloontonium gain. As a Rare, it is also a candidate for [[Rare Power]]. | ||
* | *This card does a moderate amount of damage per turn. The Bloontonium generation gives it much more utility, and can consistently attack Bloons each round despite reduced burst damage compared to things like [[Crossbow Monkey]]. | ||
*While its damage per turn is decent, it still struggles against Aggro decks without additional assistance. Aggro decks should swarm early or release strong Bloons such as [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]] to make early Miners more difficult to survive. | |||
*Players that struggle against Mine Supervisors later on are advised to run high health Bloons to force the opponent to react to them with other cards instead of passively maximize Bloontonium. | |||

As opposed to previous balance changes for Mine Supervisor, Mine Supervisor's ATK was buffed in Version 6.4 due to how many high-health threats exist in the game such that the Miners alone are weak against a competent player.<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> Despite the ATK buff potentially being a nuisance to most newer or inexperienced players, OdysseyTOS notes in their tester commentary that Aggro and heavy Tempo decks (with high Health single Bloons) are a major threat to Miner strategies.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4" /> | |||
