~~The~~ '''Setup Bloon''' is a [[Bloon (BCS)|Basic Bloon]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. If it hits the opponent's [[Hero (BCS)|Hero]], it reduces the [[Gold (BCS)|Gold]] cost of a random Bloon in the player's hand by 1. It has a Delay of 0, so it will attack the opponent at the end of the same turn it's played on under normal circumstances.

==Tips==

*As the name implies, the Setup Bloon's primary purpose is to set up a Bloon push on a later turn by reducing their cost.

**Since it reduces the cost of all charges, it is efficient at discounting Swarm Bloons and [[Discount Bloon]]s.

**It can reduce the cost of expensive Bloons to allow the player to play more Bloons in a single turn.

**It can reduce the cost of expensive Bloons to allow the player to play more Bloons in a single turn, though there are more reliable ways of bypassing the 20 Gold limit, such as [[Quincy Action Figure]]s.

*~~In a~~ [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay]] ~~deck~~, this card deals ~~almost as much~~ damage as [[Bloon Strike]] ~~when buffed by Passive Awesomeness~~, while still being cheaper and granting a discount. Although this is a fair use for it, the damage is still low and may make it a low value inclusion in burn decks.

*With [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay]]'s Passive Awesomeness or [[Ceramic Glazing Kiln]], this card deals comparable damage to [[Bloon Strike]], while still being cheaper and granting a discount. Although this is a fair use for it, the damage is still low and may make it a low value inclusion in burn decks.

*The Setup Bloon is a cheap way to intercept an opponent's [[Hero Protection]] or [[Corvus Academy of Arts]].

*The Setup Bloon can be popped by [[Defender]]s or [[Adora, High Priestess (BCS)|Adora]]'s passive ability.
