'''Overload''' is a [[Power (BCS)|Basic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in version 3.0. It ~~costs [[Bloontonium]] to use instead of [[Gold (BCS)|Gold]] and~~ destroys a ~~selected~~ [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] with 100 or less health on ~~the board~~.

'''Overload''' is a [[Power (BCS)|Basic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in version 3.0. It destroys a target [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] with 100 or less health on either player's side.

==Tips==

*In decks that run a lot of Bloontonium generation, this is a cheap removal ~~option for~~ weak Bloons with special gimmicks, such as [[~~Toxic~~ Bloon]]s, [[~~Buddy~~ Bloon]]s, [[~~Steady Growth~~ Bloon]]s, and ~~weaker Double Attack Bloons~~. It can also finish off stronger Bloons after chipping them with other damage sources like [[~~Mass Detonation~~]].

*In decks that run a lot of Bloontonium generation, this is a cheap removal. It's particularly effective against weak Bloons with special gimmicks, such as [[Steady Growth Bloon]]s, [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]]s, weaker Double Attack Bloons, [[Triple Threat Bloon]]s, and [[Buddy Bloon]]s. It can also finish off stronger Bloons after chipping them with other damage sources like [[Long Range Rang]].

*Overload costs the same as [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]]'s Arrow Shot but does more than 3x damage to a weakened Bloon. Overload ~~is only useful~~ to ~~add in a deck versus mirror aggro~~ to ~~finish off~~ a ~~powerful~~ Bloon, such as ~~partially damaged~~ [[Double Yellow Bloon]]s.

*Overload is best added to a deck versus mirror aggro to finish off a powerful Bloon, or gain leverage against life loss from the opponent.

*In [[~~The Eternal~~]] ~~decks, this card can instantly destroy the first-stage Eternal. It can also be used on damaged Eternals with 100 or less health, if the opponent tries to leak it~~.

*Overload costs the same as [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]]'s Arrow Shot but does more than 3x damage to a weakened Bloon. Aim to use it on Bloons with about 80–100 Health for the most value.

*Overload is also a good option against ~~bloons~~ with ~~armored~~, especially [[Lead Coating Bloon]].

*Quincy synergizes very well with Overload in decks for anti-Aggro purposes. Arrow Shot can get Bloons down to 100 or below health, and an Overload can use that damage to pop a Bloon without having to spend too much Gold or Bloontonium. Perceptive Shot can also put specific Bloons at 100 health or less, such as [[Double Yellow Bloon|Double Yellow Bloons]] or [[Green Bloon (BCS)|Green Bloons]] boosted by [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay’s]] Passive Awesomeness.

*On Dark Castle, a Bloon that would have 100 HP elsewhere will need some damage first before Overload can target it.

*Overload is also a good option against Bloons with Armor, especially [[Lead Coating Bloon]].

*On Dark Castle, a Bloon that would have 100 Health elsewhere will need some damage first before Overload can target it. Notable examples are a Blooming Bloon boosted by Zee Jay, or a Steady Growth Bloon.
