oh yeah, adora's got heck of other ways to do thresholds of sunshield or getting le ultimate sac, striker doesn't need ammo stores immediately (unless boss, but less important), but other heroes like amelia actopower and ezili totem are very very timesensitive for positive effectiveness. also we know how cleveryellow works, don't need to repeat that unless it's truly gonna be helpful for explaining how to use it efficiently. also we get that it's the same as swarm yellow with 1 less charge, yeah

  • Clever Yellow Bloon can add both pressure and healing, being suitable for both aggro and tempo decks. The only downsides are 20 less HP than a normal Yellow Bloon, higher rarity (Rare instead of Common), and 30 less heal per card compared to Quick Break if using the Clever function, but it can be equipped alongside normal Yellows to increase likelihood of drawing Yellows.
  • Using multi-charge Monkey cards such as Barrel of Monkeys is recommended with Clever Yellows, for more opportunities to trigger the Clever function.
    • Bomb Bloons can be sent to produce up to 2 Bomb Shooters, which are cheap (only 2 Gold), and conveniently with 2 charges.
  • In Boss Battles, Clever Yellow is a great choice for healing; this mode encourages a Monkey-heavy deck.
  • Like all Clever Bloons, check the card history while playing the game to verify if your last played card was actually a Monkey.
  • Not using the Clever function should only be used if certain that the extra 110 Health 1-delay Bloon would cause a major threat to the opponent's side, or if your Hero already has high Health and only wanted to gain Bloontonium for important thresholds (e.g. Amelia the Amazing's Act of Power, Ezili's Sacrificial Totem), or if building up Zee Jay's Rad Tokens is more important.

Update history

  • Nerf Health reduced ― 120 → 110
  • Nerf On Play heal to Hero reduced ― 80 → 70

Development

This card originally had 30 Health heal to the Hero upon activating the Clever effect. However, when the update was released, this was increased to 80 Health. The old stats were shown in the April 23rd 2025 dev diary.[1]

During the Version 5.2 playtest, Ninja Kiwi proposed a nerf to the Clever Yellow's Health to 100, but has since been changed to 110 after feedback from the community playtesters. The proposed nerf to the Clever function's Hero heal was unchanged.
