~~The~~ '''Ceramic Glazing Kiln''' is a [[Support]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. ~~Instead~~ of being able to attack, each time a [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] is played on the player's side (including from the [[Storm (BCS)|Storm]]), it consumes 1 ammo to increase that Bloon's health by ~~25. When it runs out of ammo, it automatically removes itself at the end of the owner's [[turn]]~~.

'''Ceramic Glazing Kiln''' is a [[Support]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. It is [[temporary]] and instead of being able to attack, each time a [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] is played on the player's side (including from the [[Storm (BCS)|Storm]]), it consumes 1 ammo to increase that Bloon's health by 20.

==Tips==

*~~A reasonable alternative~~ to [[Bloon Embiggen]] but ~~only up to 5 Bloons and not necessarily on zero-delay Bloons~~, ~~and relies on a Monkey~~.

*Ceramic Glazing Kiln is similar to a card like [[Bloon Embiggen]], but proactive rather than reactive. Its best targets are targets that benefit from the extra health either for survivability or damage, like [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]], [[Precursor Bloon]] or [[Double Yellow Bloon]].

**Like [[Corvus Academy of Arts]], Ceramic Glazing Kiln can be removed with [[Bed Time]] or lose ammo via [[Whoops]].

**Like [[Corvus Academy of Arts]], Ceramic Glazing Kiln can be removed with [[Bed Time]] and lose ammo via [[Whoops]] or [[Ceasefire]].

*Ceramic Glazing Kiln ~~can be played just~~ before ~~the~~ Storm ~~to allow these~~ Bloons to ~~benefit~~.~~~~

*Ceramic Glazing Kiln is the only factory that affects Storm Bloons. Using it before Storm Bloons spawn can get you good value without having to spend as much money.

==Update history==

==Development==

The Version 6.2 playtest has a community playtester prose a rework to Ceramic Glazing Kiln by decreasing its cost but lowering its Health gain. This allowed it to be more suited for aggro, since community playtesters deemed its older version too expensive for aggro but giving too little Health to be useful in OTK;<ref name="odyssey-6.2-video">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTs-Rj9TCVw|title=BCS 6.2 Tester Commentary|publisher=YouTube, Odyssey}}</ref> after playtests, some community playtesters were happy for this rework.<ref name="odyssey-6.2-video" />
