'''Powers''' are a type of card in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''. When played, they trigger an effect, then are discarded. Some Powers require the player to select a target [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]] or [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]], and cannot be used if there is no target, while others have no conditions to play. Some Powers cost [[Bloontonium]] to play instead of [[Gold (BCS)|Gold]]. They come in three classes: Basic, Advanced, and Exotic. | '''Powers''' are a type of card in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]''.

All Power cards briefly describe their primary functionality on their descriptions. Some cards can be targeted onto Bloons or Monkeys, while some are simply dragged onto the screen with no difference between playing the card onto the left or right side. | |||

The '''charge''' of a card indicates how many of this card can be played before it is fully used up. These are indicated by coin icons on the top-left of a card. Power cards can have between 1 to 2 charges. Some cards have effects that allow the card to be played more than once but still have one charge (e.g. [[Long Range Rang]]). | |||
===Keyword=== | |||
Powers that contain keyword(s) have special properties, many of which require activation under certain conditions. Any keywords of a Monkey are displayed on its card information, and is usually formatted as "'''<keyword>''': <information>" on the card text. Most keywords are also displayed by icons that represent them. | |||
Currently, Powers may possess the following keywords: | |||
*[[File:BCS ArmouredIcon.png|20px]] Armor | |||
*[[File:BCS MonkeyDamage.png|20px]] Doomed | |||
*[[File:BCS OnFireIcon.png|20px]] On Fire | |||
*[[File:BCS PickIcon.png|20px]] Pick | |||
*[[File:BCS StunnedIcon.png|20px]] Stunned | |||
*[[File:BCS UniqueIcon.png|20px]] Unique | |||
Despite some cards granting Shield to Heroes or Bloons, there's no Shield keyword on any Power card. | |||
