==Tips==

*~~The intended use of~~ Growth Gas ~~Bloon~~ is to punish players ~~who~~ heavily rely on area damage and/or random attacks. The ~~bloon~~ itself is too slow to be a threat for leaking; it is a support ~~bloon~~ for reducing damage that other friendly ~~bloons~~ take.

*Growth Gas Bloon’s primary purpose is to punish players that heavily rely on area damage and/or random attacks. The Bloon itself is too slow to be a threat for leaking; it is a support Bloon for reducing damage that other friendly Bloons take.

*You can exploit Quincy having [[Quincy (BCS)|Perceptive Shot]] up to buff all of your Bloons by 10 if you are fighting Quincy.

*Certain Monkeys and Powers are weak to Growth Gas Bloon. Low-damage area attacks are especially susceptible.

**Two Growth Gas Bloons will make [[Spike Storm!]] do very little damage.

**Two Growth Gas Bloons will make [[Spike Storm!]] do very little damage. [[Blade Maelstrom (BCS)|Blade Maelstrom]]'s end-of-turn effect is also affected for the same reasons.

**On Dark Castle, one Growth Gas Bloon is enough to stop two Spike Storms from one-shotting Reds. Quincy users can then follow up with [[Bloon Embiggen]] and/or Arrow Shot on a friendly Growth Gas Bloon.

**[[Triple Shot (BCS)|Triple Shot]] will not do much damage to nearby bloons if one of the darts hits a Growth Gas bloon.

**[[Glaive Ricochet (BCS)|Glaive ~~Ricochet~~]] ~~won't do much damage if one~~ Growth Gas Bloon is present, and ~~do worse~~ if there are two or more Growth Gas Bloons.

**[[Glaive Ricochet (BCS)|Glaive Ricochet’s]] “On Attack” effect is practically non-existent while Growth Gas Bloon is present, and actively detrimental if there are two or more Growth Gas Bloons.

*[[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] ~~and~~ [[Gwendolin (BCS)|Gwendolin]] can damage their own Growth Gas Bloons with their abilities~~, doing low enough damage to trigger the health generation multiple times~~. ~~With~~ Quincy ~~especially~~, ~~this~~ can ~~be exploited with swarm cards or~~ [[~~Red Bloon Storm~~]] to ~~generate a lot of health. Using both~~ Growth Gas ~~Bloon charges and spreading~~ the ~~damage between them allows them to heal each other and last longer~~.

*[[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]], [[Gwendolin (BCS)|Gwendolin]], [[Obyn Greenfoot (BCS)|Obyn]], and [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]] can damage their own Growth Gas Bloons with their abilities. This is only really practical with Quincy, who can use [[Quincy (BCS)|Arrow Shot]] to activate Growth Gas multiple times in rapid succession without damaging the Growth Gas too badly.

*Growth Gas Bloons ~~will usually be at the most back of the queue, because they have a very long delay. Only~~ [[~~ZOMG~~ (BCS)|~~ZOMG]], [[Lead Zeppelin]], and Immobile~~ Bloons ~~have a delay that is greater than or equal to the Growth Gas Bloon. This also means it is not easy to bait a [[Triple Shot (BCS)|Triple Shot~~]] ~~against 3 or more non-GGBs on screen,~~ and [[~~Amelia the Amazing (BCS)~~|~~Amelia~~]]~~'s passive would be interfered~~.

*With Quincy, Growth Gas can be used to enable OTK setups with Bloons such as [[Pink Bloon (BCS)|Pink Bloons]] and [[Setup Bloon|Setup Bloons]].

==Update history==

==Development==

This card existed in the data of ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'' since the [[Bloons Card Storm Firstlook test|Firstlook test]], and was originally named "Growth Spore Bloon", though it went unused until the full release. The full release changed its effect and stats.
