Cash Drop Sniper: Difference between revisions

The '''Cash Drop Sniper''' is a [[Military]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. It generates 3 [[Gold (BCS)|Gold]] each time it reloads its ammo, including from effects like [[Quick Reload]].

*Cash Drop Sniper has mediocre damage and cash generation for its cost, but allows the player to steadily build Gold while the opponent builds up resources in other ways. An aggressive player can outrush a single Cash Drop Sniper placed early, and the cash generation is too slow and inconsistent to be kept for the mid-to-lategame due to max Economy (+10 Gold) not needing the cash burst of the On Reload effect.

**Cash Drop Sniper does 15 less damage than the normal [[Sniper Monkey (BCS)|Sniper Monkey]] but 15 more damage than the [[Leeching Shot Sniper]]. Notably, Cash Drop Sniper does just enough damage on a first-stage [[The Eternal]] to be 5 HP, unless on Game Night where the one-shot is favorable after The Eternal’s nerf.

*Provided that Cash Drop Sniper continually makes shots whenever possible, it will be able to generate cash steadily. If affected by [[Buddy Bloon]], it is only worth making a shot anyway if cash generation is more important than its damage.

*At 1 more Gold and making 3 Gold per 2 turns instead of 2 Gold per 1 turn, Cash Drop Sniper's cash generation is slower and less efficient than a [[Banana Farm (BCS)|Banana Farm]], but has the advantage of an initial burst of damage.

This card existed in the data of the [[Bloon Card Storm Firstlook test|Firstlook test]], but it was not accessible until the Full Playable test. It was named "Supply Drop Sniper" in the Firstlook test. A teaser image released in a developer diary on Reddit showed that it originally had 70 ATK instead of 65.
