A '''keyword''' is a term in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'' that describes mechanics of a [[card]], [[Hero (BCS)|Hero]] Ability, or [[Striker's Adventure]] item. While not explicitly stated in-game, most keywords are either an effect in and of itself or a condition under which an effect triggers. The player can see a card's keywords when viewing a card in the Collection and during a match when the card is highlighted. Each keyword has an icon, which is displayed next to the Monkey or Bloon during a match at all times.

While not explicitly stated in-game, most keywords are either an effect of a card in and of itself or a condition under which an effect of the card triggers. The player can see a card's keywords when viewing a card in the [[Card Collection]] and during a match when the card is highlighted. For [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] and [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] cards, most keywords display their icons next to them during a match.


Some cards have keywords written in their card text, but they do not display those keywords' icons or descriptions. Some card descriptions use phrases such as "During your Turn", "During Opponent's Turn", and "When an opponent draws a Card" like keywords, but they are not keywords and have no icons or descriptions.
