Nature's Clarity is an Advanced Power card in Bloons Card Storm. It allows the player to pick from three cards, then it grants their Hero 15 Shield per Gold or Bloontonium the chosen card costs.

It can only be added to Obyn Greenfoot and Mountain Obyn decks.

The card artwork depicts Obyn Greenfoot relaxing by sitting on a rock in a forest.

  • It is often best to choose the most expensive card, to take advantage of the large shield. The most expensive card in the game provides +300 shield.
    • Note that the opponent can predict your picked card cost by calculating the increased shield in groups of 15, which could give away some of your selected cards.
      • Generating shield that is equal to 15 multiplied by exactly the current Gold may suggest a card with a Gold-withdrawing effect (e.g. Extra-Super Monkey).
      • Any +150 or more shield (10+ Gold) may suggest a control opponent, or a midrange combo deck if suspecting Double Trouble.
      • An opponent with +45 shield (3 Gold) could potentially suggest picking another Nature's Clarity.
      • Certain cards have a Gold cost that no other card shares. The only examples are The Big One (11 Gold, +165 shield), Lead Zeppelin (14 Gold, +210 shield), and CRRROD (+300 shield, 20 Gold).
  • This card is best on control decks, because exchanging large shield for cheap cards is not worth it over choosing an aggro-friendly hero such as Quincy.
  • Be careful about opponents who use Shields Down!; this card neutralize all Shield gains since being played.
  • Since Mountain Obyn lacks a way to make his own shield, Nature's Clarity can serve most of his Shield.
