Striker Jones
I love the smell of bubblewrap in the morning Introduced Version 4.0 Hero Abilities Target Focus ( 0 {{{ability 1 type}}}) Whenever your opponent summons a Bloon, gain 1 Bloontonium. Striker earns 2 less Bloontonium from his Bloons Concussive Shell ( 10 {{{ability 2 type}}}) Deal 50 splash damage to target Bloon Ammo Stores ( 20 {{{ability 3 type}}}) On Monkey Reload: It gains +1 Temporary Ammo

Striker Jones is a Hero in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 4.0. He can be unlocked from the Store by purchasing him for  2,000 Monkey Money or by purchasing the Striker Hero Bundle or Striker Mega bundle for real money.

Striker Jones focuses on defensive play. He generates Bloontonium from the opponent playing Bloons (at the cost of generating less from the player playing their own Bloons), which he can use to deal splash damage to Bloons and grant Monkeys additional Ammo. His exclusive cards synergize with Military Monkeys and Bomb Shooters.

• Target Focus − Passively generates one Bloontonium each time the opponent plays a Bloon, but the player gains two less Bloontonium from playing their own Bloons. Does not include Bloons from the Storm.
• Concussive Shell — Deals 50 damage to a target Bloon and 50 damage to any Bloons adjacent to it on the opponent's Bloon track.
• Ammo Stores — Passively grants all the player's Monkeys +1 Temporary Ammo each time they reload.

Strategy

This strategy section is empty or incomplete. See the strategy guidelines for more information on how to write strategy sections.

Striker Jones is mainly geared for control decks that focus on Military Monkeys and/or Bomb Shooters. His abilities typically don't come into play until approaching his final ability, Ammo Stores, which form the majority of his power. Concussive Shell is niche, though combined with his first passive it could assist against weak swarms.

His early-game is weak, and is not suitable for or against aggro. Midrange decks are okay with Striker Jones if focusing on controlling the opponent's Bloons until a Quick Ready wincon is open. For control decks, he can be stronger than passive Obyn Greenfoot decks, but the downtime of most Militaries and Bombs can be a deal-breaker.

Striker Jones' cards are important for his decks. Orders Received is an important card for all Military and/or Bomb decks, as is Artillery Command. War Bonds can help afford expensive Monkeys and combos if cheap Military Monkeys were placed prior.

Tips

• Striker Jones' passive Bloontonium gains from opponent can be ignored for most situations, but not if Striker Jones approaches his final ability.
• Having a variety of Military Monkeys and Bomb Shooters is helpful with Striker Jones.
• Bloontonium generation is not reduced from Monkeys or Powers. Thus, Bloontonium-generating Monkeys can be a great addition to the player's deck.
