Accident at the Lab is an Advanced Power card in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 4.0. It places Acid Pools on all Bloon spaces on the opponent's side.
Appearance
[edit | edit source]The card artwork depicts an Alchemist staring worriedly at a shattered glass beaker that spilled acid onto the floor. The background is a cobwebbed room with two shelves parallel, each lined with a variety of laboratory containers and books.
Tips
[edit | edit source]This section was last updated for: version 6.0
- Accident At The Lab is similar to Spike Storm! with a few key differences. The Acid Pools carry over between rounds and don’t naturally expire, making Accident useful if Bloons are popped by it, as the Acid Pools will stay on the track. Accident At The Lab as a tradeoff for the lingering effect has less damage in a single turn, as unlike Spike Storm’s potential 60 damage, the max amount Accident At The Lab can deal to one Bloon is 30 per turn, even if you have multiple copies. For 7 Bloontonium, the effect can be good but is often very pricey to afford, even for Bloontonium powers.
- Decks that frequently send Bloons may find this card useful, however do keep in mind that other Bloontonium costing cards have stronger effects. Using cards like Mass Detonation, Overload, or Bloon Redirect will often be a better idea, due to their power generally better matching their Bloontonium cost.
Update history
[edit | edit source]
Bloontonium cost increased ― 4 → 7
Now displays the Acid Pool keyword
Bloontonium cost decreased ― 7 → 6
Development
[edit | edit source]For Version 6.4, Accident At the Lab was proposed to have its cost reduced to 5 Bloontonium, but has resulted in being a little bit too efficient, in addition to avoiding a case where it is always run in every aggro deck, just like Mass Detonation, another Bloontonium card that players wanted to avoid becoming dominant.[1] The cost reduction was decreased to cost 6 Bloontonium so that it'd not make the Power a mandatory card in aggro decks but still good enough for inclusion in aggro.[2][1]
