~~The~~ '''Extractor Bloon''' is a [[Bloon (BCS)|Basic Bloon]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|3.0}}. It starts with 50 [[Shield (BCS)|Shield]] and gains 10 health each time a Bloon on the opponent's side takes damage. It does not trigger if a Bloon with [[Armor]] takes zero damage from a hit. Self-inflicted bloon damage from the opponent (e.g. [[Damaged MOAB]], [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] using Arrow Shot on his own bloons) also count for health boosting.

*Extractor Bloon rewards players for doing lots of individual hits to enemy Bloons. It's as slow as [[MOAB (BCS)|MOAB]]s and [[BFB (BCS)|BFB]]s, but deadly when allowed to build its health. It's more of a midrange's version of [[Bolstered Bloon]] but boosted by attacking enemy bloons, rather than playing friendly Bloons. Due to its low initial health and difficult scaling method, it is often recommended to use [[Damaged MOAB]] in decks over it instead.

**Extractor can be a threat if not dealt with while sending Bloons, but due to its high delay you often have time to prepare for it. Extractor Bloon is best dealt with when it’s low on health. Waiting for it to scale can make it much more difficult to kill.

**~~Against feeding the~~ Extractor Bloon, it~~'s often wise~~ to ~~avoid sending bloons, if possible~~.

*[[Spike Storm!]], [[Blade Maelstrom (BCS)|Blade Maelstrom]] and [[Glaive Ricochet (BCS)|Glaive Ricochet]] gives lots of HP if the opponent has plenty of Bloons.

*[[Spike Storm!]] and [[Glaive Ricochet (BCS)|Glaive Ricochet]] gives lots of HP if the opponent has plenty of ~~bloons~~.

*Defensive Heroes are compatible with scaling Extractor, but mainly [[Quincy (BCS)|Quincy]] (with his passive) and [[Mountain Obyn (BCS)|Mountain Obyn]] (with Rise).

*~~A well-fed Adora~~ with ~~many~~ [[~~Bloontonium Miner~~]]s and [[~~Mine Supervisor~~]]~~s can allow her to consistently build up her orbs, so she can keep feeding Extractor Bloon every round once she reaches high enough orbs~~.

**Quincy with his passive and a [[Red Bloon Apopalypse]] can keep feeding the Extractor, granting up to +70 HP with the passive alone.

*[[Return to Sender]] is an effective way to stop an Extractor Bloon from scaling too much.

*~~Like Bolstered Bloon,~~ [[Return to Sender]] is an effective way to stop an Extractor Bloon from scaling too much.
