'''Howl''' is an [[Power (BCS)|Advanced Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|5.0}}.

'''Howl''' is an [[Power (BCS)|Advanced Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|5.0}}. It grants all Wolf-type [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]]s ([[Wolf]], [[Dire Wolf]]) +10 ATK while on the player's side, including any Wolves moved to their side with [[Expert Negotiator]] or placed after using this card, for the rest of the match. It can only be added to [[Obyn Greenfoot (BCS)|Obyn Greenfoot]] and [[Mountain Obyn (BCS)|Mountain Obyn]] decks.

*Full [[Wolf]] armies will benefit from this card the most. With all three of this card, they'll do 60 damage per turn, which rivals most 1-delay Monkeys, not including certain Ultra Rare Monkeys (e.g. [[Total Transformation Monkey]], [[Sun Temple (BCS)|Sun Temple]]). It's even better with [[Dire Wolf]], which will synergize well with its splash damage, for up to 80 ATK with three Howls alone.

*While this card doesn't have use before Wolves are made, the relatively cheap cost makes it still viable early on once the defenses stabilize by other means.

*This will still be hard to see value when going into [[Mountain Obyn (BCS)|Mountain Obyn]], due to the slow production of [[Dire Wolf|Dire Wolves]], but the huge buff to groups can make this strong win condition against anything but OTK and extremely high-HP Bloons.
