Balance changes

Jungle's Bounty Druid

“

Jungle’s Bounty Druid is an excellent control card that lets a player stabilize after initial aggro or tempo bursts from your opponent. At 5 cost, it was simply too easy to get into play early and also to get multiple copies out. While good counterplay has already developed, it’s still just too easy to get out so we’re increasing the cost significantly.

While the chip damage from JBD is pretty minor compared to its healing effect, that extra 30 health on the turn it is played as well as continued 30 DPT was also helping this card to be a one-stop shop for anti-aggro. Reducing this ammo to 1 means it’ll have less impact the turn it is played.

We did consider reducing the healing effect, however we didn’t want to completely destroy the cards’ effectiveness in its role as an anti-aggro card. Instead, we’ve made it harder to get into play, giving aggressive players a bigger window to push through damage.
— Update notes

”

•  Cost increased ― 5 → 7
•  Ammo reduced ― 2 → 1

Growth Gas Bloon

“

Growth Gas Bloon’s intended purpose is as an anti-AoE/random damage card. This is why it has high health but a very long delay. Working as a stronger Bloon Embiggen in Quincy decks was not intended and meant that it needed to be changed. That combo will still work with GGB but it won’t be as easy to get quick lethals with it. We’re hoping this change will allow it to serve its intended purpose but we’ll continue to monitor its use, particularly in high skill games.
— Update notes

”

•  On Damaged health bonus reduced ― +20 → +10

Maps

• There is now a 3-second delay after an opponent is found and after one player vetoes where the veto option is disabled

Text changes

• On Fire description changed ― "Will take 30 damage at the end of it's turn and before attacking" → "Will take 30 damage at the end of its turn and before attacking"

• Hastening Bloon description changed ― "On Play: Reduce the delay of a random friendly Bloon by 1" → "On Play: Reduce the delay of a random other friendly Bloon by 1"

• Shield Gas Bloon description changed ― "On Damaged: Random friendly Bloon gains 30 Shield" → "On Damaged: Random other friendly Bloon gains 30 Shield"

Balance changes

Storm Of Arrows

“

Part of hero-specific card design is that they help to define the hero’s identity and are in general strong cards. SoA has been on the radar for a long time but we wanted to see how it performed in the wild with the full launch card set before making any changes. It’s still just a little too strong so we’re ramping its damage back.
— Update notes

”

•  Damage per arrow reduced ― 150 → 120

Rapid Shot

“

*blush* Looks like something got past the balancing team’s bow! Rapid shot can hit more targets than SoA and that flexibility is expected to cost more, but the damage output was far too low here. Bumping it up and adding an extra hit to really help this card out.
— Update notes

”

•  Rapid Shot improved ― Deals 30 damage to a random enemy bloon 3 times → Deals 40 damage to a random enemy bloon 4 times
•  Can no longer target Bloons that have already taken lethal damage from previous hits (bug fix)

Stun Gas Bloon

•  Stun now properly stuns for 1 turn similar to the Stunned card (bug fix)

Draining Bloon

•  Now adds Bloontonium equal with its cost after draining Bloontonium (bug fix)

Bouncing Bullet

“

Some of our Ultra Rare monkeys aren’t quite strong enough so we’re bumping their damage up slightly.
— Update notes

”

•  Initial damage buffed ― 65 → 80

Zebra Bloon

•  On any Bloon Leak: Draw a card (bug)

Glaive Ricochet

“

Some of our Ultra Rare monkeys aren’t quite strong enough so we’re bumping their damage up slightly.
— Update notes

”

•  Initial damage buffed ― 30 → 40

Sun Temple

“

Sun Temple was getting too powerful with Expert Negotiator - the Sun God is now appeased
— Update notes

”

•  When Expert Negotiator is used, the Sun Temple no longer copies the attack power gained from the original sacrifice, instead it gains power equivalent with the amount of monkeys sacrificed on the side of the Expert Negotiator user (bug fix)

Quincy

“

Quincy has been performing well ever since the First Look builds but now that we have four solid weeks’ worth of play data in, his major ability is just too game defining at such a cheap cost. Bumping this up to 12 and we’ll see how that affects the current meta before considering any other changes.
— Update notes

”

•  Flurry of Arrows Bloontonium cost increased ― 9 → 12
•  Max Bloontonium increased ― 9 → 12

Gwendolin

“

While Quincy has been dominating against all other heroes, Gwen’s winrate and matchups have been poor across the board. Her Flame Strike ability is very powerful but is hard to save up for and the payoff requires significant setup. We still like the setup/combo but are bringing the cost down slightly to make it slightly easier to get to as well as increasing the payoff.
— Update notes

”

•  Flame Strike Bloontonium cost reduced ― 20 → 18
•  Max Bloontonium reduced ― 20 → 18
•  Flame Strike already on fire damage increased ― 200 → 250

Storm

•  Storm stun is now permanent (bug)

Other changes

• Cash Drop Sniper shot SFX changed from "throw" (like Dart Monkey) to "bullet" (like Sniper Monkey)

• Weakening Gas Bloon description changed ― "On Damaged: Lower attacking Monkey's Attack Power by 5" → "On Damaged: Reduce attacking Monkey's Attack Power by 5"

• Heat it Up description changed ― "Increase Damage of your Monkeys by 5" → "Increase Attack Power of your Monkeys by 5"

• Destroying a Toxic Bloon with a Hero ability will no longer play the removal effect on the Hero

• Hero damage from Badlands is now recorded in the history

Bionic Boomerang

• Visual rarity changed from Rare to Uncommon to match crafting cost (bug fix)

Stunned

• Visual rarity changed from Common to Uncommon to match crafting cost (bug fix)

In-game description

Version 2.2

Released on 10 February 2024 on Steam.

Monkey changes

Crossbow Monkey

“

Crossbow Monkey is a little too weak still and needs some love. This brings his DPT up closer to other 4 cost monkeys and gives him a strong 80 damage burst when first played.
— Update notes

”

•  Attack Power increased ― 35 → 40

Necromancer

“

Necromancer is meant to be a midrange threat that doesn’t defend well but currently lands too late to have much impact on board. Getting them out that much earlier should help.
— Update notes

”

•  Cost reduced ― 7 → 5

Prince of Darkness

“

Prince of Darkness has an immediate impact on play but his ongoing ability isn’t impactful enough. Making this stronger should make him more of a threat.
— Update notes

”

•  On Turn Start healing increased ― 30 → 50

Heart of Vengeance Druid

“

HoV is outclassed by Spike’o’pult and Wizard Monkey as a scaling Monkey, so giving him an extra shot to increase his DPT. If you can get him to scale he should be that much more powerful.
— Update notes

”

•  Ammo increased ― 2 → 3

Blade Maelstrom

“

Blade Maelstrom is intended to be a powerful AoE Monkey that doesn’t need to attack to put out most of its damage. We’re buffing its end of turn effect to help it achieve that.
— Update notes

”

•  On Turn End damage increased ― 15 → 30

Bloon changes

“

Swarm Bloons are incredibly efficient, and with 3 charges they allow players to keep plenty of pressure on early. While aggro is not quite as dominant as players might think, it’s still a little too strong at the moment, so we’re bringing the strength of these down.
— Update notes

”

Swarm Blue Bloon

“

Swarm Bloons are incredibly efficient, and with 3 charges they allow players to keep plenty of pressure on early. While aggro is not quite as dominant as players might think, it’s still a little too strong at the moment, so we’re bringing the strength of these down.
— Update notes

”

•  Health reduced ― 50 → 45

Swarm Green Bloon

“

Swarm Bloons are incredibly efficient, and with 3 charges they allow players to keep plenty of pressure on early. While aggro is not quite as dominant as players might think, it’s still a little too strong at the moment, so we’re bringing the strength of these down.
— Update notes

”

•  Health reduced ― 80 → 70

Swarm Yellow Bloon

“

Swarm Bloons are incredibly efficient, and with 3 charges they allow players to keep plenty of pressure on early. While aggro is not quite as dominant as players might think, it’s still a little too strong at the moment, so we’re bringing the strength of these down.
— Update notes

”

•  Health reduced ― 115 → 110

Yellow Bloon

•  Health reduced ― 140 → 130

•  Indirectly nerfs Arcane Master due to Yellow Bloon HP reduction

Double Rainbow Bloon

“

Another super efficient, large threat, Double Rainbow gets a slight nerf.
— Update notes

”

•  Health reduced ― 350 → 330

“

Nested Bloons were an early showcase of the On Popped mechanic in our playtests but don’t fit that archetype super well. Having them be On Destroyed presents a much better continuous threat on the board.
— Update notes

”

Nested Blue

“

Nested Bloons were an early showcase of the On Popped mechanic in our playtests but don’t fit that archetype super well. Having them be On Destroyed presents a much better continuous threat on the board.
— Update notes

”

•  Effect is now triggered On Destroyed instead of On Popped, allowing it to summon if it hits the opposing Hero
• Description changed ― "On Popped: Spawns a Red Bloon" → "On Destroyed: Summons a Red Bloon"

Nested Green

“

Nested Bloons were an early showcase of the On Popped mechanic in our playtests but don’t fit that archetype super well. Having them be On Destroyed presents a much better continuous threat on the board.
— Update notes

”

•  Effect is now triggered On Destroyed instead of On Popped, allowing it to summon if it hits the opposing Hero
• Description changed ― "On Popped: Spawns a Nested Blue" → "On Destroyed: Summons a Nested Blue"

Nested Green

“

— Update notes

”

•  Effect is now triggered On Destroyed instead of On Popped, allowing it to summon if it hits the opposing Hero
• Description changed ― "On Popped: Spawns a Nested Green" → "On Destroyed: Summons a Nested Green"

Power changes

Glue Storm

“

Glue Storm’s downside of affecting your own Bloons as well means this card isn’t seeing much play. We’re reducing the cost slightly to try and encourage more play.
— Update notes

”

•  Cost reduced ― 6 → 5

Parting Gift

“

Another over-costed card with potential, especially with ZJ and other ways to boost Monkey AP we’re hoping this considerable buff will help see a copy or two make their way into some people’s decks.
— Update notes

”

•  Cost reduced ― 5 → 3

Mana Shield

“

While Mana Shield wasn’t a _bad_ card, taking up a whole card slot means it needs to be stronger than it is. It should work better now as a very cheap, early defense against aggro decks.
— Update notes

”

•  Shield amount increased ― 50 → 70

Other changes

• The tooltip text now uses the phrase "<Bloon> will be summoned!" instead of "<Bloon> will spawn!" for Bloons

• Training description changed ― "Play a game of Bloons Card Storm against the Heroes." → "Play a game of Bloons Card Storm against the Heroes. Does not give XP, Feat or Quest progress."

Balance changes

Bolstered Bloon

“

Bringing the starting shield down considerably for the Bolstered Bloon and also tweaking the health gain down slightly. It should still ramp well though.
— Update notes

”

•  Starting shield decreased ― 100 → 50
•  HP gain per bloon decreased ― +30 → +25

Discount Bloon

“

Continuing to look at underutilized cards with promise, we’re buffing Discount Bloon’s health a little.
— Update notes

”

•  HP increased ― 100 → 120

Nested Bloons

“

These came out a little hot last week and clearly needed a nerf. They should all still be strong cards but not quite so oppressive this way.
— Update notes

”

Nested Blue

•  HP decreased ― 60 → 50

Nested Green

•  HP decreased ― 100 → 80
•  Delay increased ― 1 → 2

Nested Yellow

•  HP decreased ― 140 → 120

Weakening Gas Bloon

“

Weakening Gas gets a cost buff to make it more appealing. Look out for them in the Season 2 Storm as well!
— Update notes

”

•  Gold cost decreased ― 7 → 6

Thunder Druid

“

Thunder Druid is working a little too well as AoE for the cost, so we’re bringing its damage down slightly.
— Update notes

”

•  On Play: Damage reduced to all enemy bloons ― 100 → 80

Nature's Clarity

“

Pick 4 was a little anomalous so bringing this in line with other heroes’ Pick cards. The shield was also too powerful, so we’ve weakened that slightly.
— Update notes

”

•  Pick amount decreased ― 4 → 3
•  Shield gain decreased ― +20 → +15

Super Monkey Storm

“

Similar to Thunder Druid, SMS is just a little too efficient. However, SMS is meant to be a very strong board clear so instead of lowering its damage, we’re upping its cost.
— Update notes

”

•  Gold cost increased ― 8 → 10

Adora

• No longer uses Orbs of Light quote if attacking during Ultimate Sacrifice
• Will now occasionally use her Sun Shield quotes when triggering Sun Shield

Quincy

• No longer plays his Perceptive Shot animation, shortening the animation

This article or section needs cleanup to improve the way it presents information and/or comply with the style guide. You can help out by editing this article. The editor who added this notice elaborates: Complete and crosscheck this section (remove it only if you are not Qwertyxp2000). Also, how does polavux do quote handling?

Released on unknown date. It introduced further balance changes to address the aggro meta.

“

As promised, a small balance patch mostly focused on Zee Jay’s Rad Bloon, the strength of Red and Blue Bloons and buffing a few underutilized cards. Let us know what you think about the changes and what cards you’d like to see nerfed or buffed in future!

”

Gwendolin

“

Gwen is really struggling at the moment as the build-up to her passive doesn’t provide a big enough payoff. Making this more impactful.
— Update notes

”

•  Heat It Up effect: Attack Power bonus increased ― +5 → +10

It's All On Fire Now

“

Gwen continues to lounge around the bottom of hero win rates, so we’re hoping to help her out with some buffs.
— Update notes

”

•  Charges increased ― 1 → 2

Extreme Heat

“

Archer's Instinct

“

While we’re looking at hero cards, Quincy’s Rapid Shot and Archer’s Instinct get buffs too as they are outshined by other cards.
— Update notes

”

•  Charges increased ― 1 → 2

Rapid Shot

“

While we’re looking at hero cards, Quincy’s Rapid Shot and Archer’s Instinct get buffs too as they are outshined by other cards.
— Update notes

”

•  Shots per charge increased ― 4 → 5

Rad Bloon

“

We wanted the Rad Bloon to help players keep building Rad Token momentum as it often felt like summoning a Rad Bloon was an all-in moment. The double passive felt fun but in practice is too strong and can be confusing. We’re keeping the Tokens coming by switching it to on turn start, while increasing the delay a little to stop the ultra strong snowball effect we have been seeing with it.
— Update notes

Green Bloon

“

The humble Green Bloon is just too efficient for its cost, so tweaking that down slightly.

•  HP decreased ― 100 → 90

Reds and Swarm Reds

“

These early game Bloons are so efficient for their cost and are putting extreme pressure on players slightly too early. In Bloons lore, these are some of the slowest Bloons in the game so we are adjusting their delay to match. This should give players a little more time to fight back against them.

Wolf / Obyn Greenfoot

“

Obyn is now suffering from hyper aggro decks in concert with the nerfs to his Shields (*cough* Nature’s Favor *cough*). His Wolves have always struggled to see much play, so we’re buffing their attack to see if they can help him out early game.

•  Wolf: Damage increased ― 20 → 30

Rad Bloon / Zee Jay

“

Zee Jay is still slightly too strong after our last tweaks, and in particular his Rad Bloon is scaling a little too much. We’re bringing the base Health as well as the scaling Health down from 70 to 60 and will continue to monitor his winrate from here.

•  Rad Bloon: Base HP decreased ― 70 → 60
•  Rad Bloon: HP scale per Rad Token decreased ― 70 → 60

Monkey Village

“

Both of these Monkeys are very underutilized, so we’re buffing them a little.

•  Bonus Attack Power buff increased ― +15 → +20

Tack Sprayer

“

•  Attack Power increased ― 20 → 25
•  Defender bonus increased ― +10 → +15

Booster Bloon

“

Booster Bloon packs a little too much punch for its cost, so we’re bringing its own Health down a little.
— Update notes

”

•  HP decreased ― 70 → 50
  • Note: Boost effect unaffected

Buddy Bloon

“

Meanwhile, we like the possibilities of Buddy and Signal Bloons but they aren’t seeing much play. Buddy Bloon should stick around a little more now and Signal Bloon gains an extra charge.

•  HP decreased ― 50 → 75
  • Note: Shield unaffected

Signal Bloon

Desperate Defense

This defense was definitely not quite desperate enough!
