'''Ghostly Armor''' is an upcoming [[Power (BCS)|Exotic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''.<ref name="6.0 preview">{{cite|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/bloonscardstorm/comments/1npqv9r/bloons_card_storm_v60_preview_notes/|title=Bloons Card Storm v6.0 - Preview Notes!|publisher=Reddit|retrieved=24 sept 2025}}</ref>
'''Ghostly Armor''' is an [[Power (BCS)|Exotic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|6.0}}. It grants the player's [[Hero (BCS)|Hero]] 40 [[Armor]], then removes 40 Armor at the start of the player's next turn.
 
The card artwork features [[Ezili]] with many ghosts surrounding her.
 
==Tips==
{{BCS last updated|6.2|section=y}}
*Ghostly Armor can be used to protect against swarms of Bloons, including an opponent's swarm aggro, [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]]'s Yellows, or the [[Storm (BCS)|Storm]]'s Pink Bloons. It is suitable for some archetypes, but the general low value of the card vs anything but Aggro makes it a waste of space in a deck if it already is good at dealing with Aggro.
*Ghostly Armor can be used by Aggro decks to protect against damage from opposing Aggro decks.
*The Armor gained from Ghostly Armor protects from all hits of [[Double Attack]] or [[Triple Attack]] Bloons. Unlike healing effects, it can also protect against surprise damage, such as [[Pink Bloon (BCS)|Pink Bloon]]; however the opponent will likely just choose to not attack with [[Pink Bloon (BCS)|Pink Bloons]] the turn Ghostly Armor is up.
*Ghostly Armor also lowers damage from self-inflicted sources such as [[Ezili (BCS)|Ezili]]'s Sacrificial Totem and her [[Monkey Summons]] card.
*Ghostly Armor can protect against Mountain Obyn’s [[Sentinel Bloon|Sentinel Bloons]] if played before popping them. It can also be used late game to nullify a [[Red Bloon Apopalypse]], allowing one extra turn to stall.
*Since Ghostly Armor doesn't reduce damage dealt to Shields, it is useless if the player's Shield blocks all of the damage before their next turn.
