'''Shield''' is a game mechanic in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'' that acts as an additional layer of health for [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]]s and [[Hero (BCS)|Heroes]]. If a Bloon or Hero with a Shield takes damage, the Shield takes damage first. Bloons and Heroes with a Shield are surrounded by a transparent bubble. Shields are not affected by [[Armor]].

Shields on Bloons increase their health, but do not add to the damage the Bloon deals to the opponent's Hero if it leaks. Shields do not trigger On Damaged keyword effects when taking damage unless the hit also damages the Bloon inside it (i.e. deals more damage than the Bloon has Shield).

Some Bloons, such as the [[Bolstered Bloon]] and [[Buddy Bloon]], start with a certain amount of Shield when played. In the card text, this is written as "Shield <amount>".
