Striker's Adventure

Striker's Adventure is an Adventure in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 4.0. It consists of a single campaign, Striker's Battleground, a roguelike mode where the player plays through a series of randomized matches while collecting cards to build their deck between matches and items and potions to apply modifiers. This campaign is available to all players, but most features and rewards are only accessible to players who purchase the Striker Adventure, Striker Mega Bundle, or Lead Storm Mega Bundle from the store.

Gameplay

The player begins a run by choosing a starter deck and opening one blue Supply Crate and three regular Supply Crates. Each run has twelve stages, each with a random opponent, map, and modifier. Beating the opponent of the stage earns rewards and progresses the player to the next stage, while losing to the opponent causes the player to lose one life. The player has three lives and loses the run if they run out, though some opponents reward a item when defeated that restores one life. The player wins by completing all twelve stages.

Starter decks

The check icon indicates that the player has already completed a run with that deck.

All Heroes have one deck unlocked by default and two additional decks unlocked by accomplishing certain tasks within this Adventure. If the player has not purchased Striker's Adventure, they can only use Unpredictable Arrows.

Supply Crates

The contents of a regular Supply Crate

Supply Crates contain three random drops that the player can choose one of. There are three types of Supply Crates.

	Contains cards. Choosing a card adds it to the player's deck. The player can obtain multiple copies of the same card, including Unique cards. Cards exclusive to Heroes other than the player's selected Hero do not appear.
	Contains items. The player cannot obtain more than one copy of an item at a time.
	Contains potions. If the player already has two potions upon opening one of these crates, they are given the option to either skip choosing a potion or discard a potion from the Supplies menu.

Items

Items apply passive modifiers to each match. The player can hold up to four items at a time, but it is impossible to have more than three in a single run.

Icon	Text	Notes
	Ammo Cache Monkeys have +1 ammo but take 1 extra turn to reload	—
	Bloon Speederator When you play a Bloon reduce its Health by 30 and its delay by 1	Does not apply to bloons spawned by a source other than their Bloon card (e.g. Rad Bloon spawned by Rad Bloon Time! or Undead Bloon spawned by Necromancer). Bloons summoned with 0 health are instantly destroyed.
	Sharpening Stone Primary Monkeys have +25 ATK	Only affects the player's Monkeys.
	Creepy Idol Your Opponent's first 4 Bloons that enter play have Delay increased by 1	Includes Storm bloons.
	Jar of Pickles Monkeys have +35 ATK but take 1 extra turn to reload	Only affects the player's Monkeys.
	Quincy Action Figure Start the game with a Quincy Action Figure in play	—
	Hero's Cape First Dart Monkey you play becomes a Super Monkey	—
	Rapid Reload Ratchet Your Monkeys reload 1 turn faster, minimum 1	—
	Miniature Workshop Start each battle with an extra card in hand	—
	Obstacle Course Champ Medal Start each battle with +100 Max Health	—
	Golden Idol The first card you play each turn costs 3 less	Affects Powers that cost Bloontonium. Only discounts one use of cards with multiple charges. Cannot reduce costs below 0. If the discounted card is a power, the player will be able to play a second discounted card that turn. The second discount does not apply to cards drawn after the first discounted power is used.
	Bloon Strengthenor Your Bloons have +50 Health but you do not summon Storm Bloons	Your Bloons get a Health buff on-play that sets the bloon's Health to 50 more than its base Health. If the player also has Bloon Speederator, the Bloon Strengthenor buff will be +80 instead of +50, resulting in the bloon having +50 Health and -1 Delay compared to its unmodified stats.
	Bloon Sniper The first Bloon your opponent plays each battle is destroyed	Includes Storm Bloons. Deals damage equal to the Bloon's current Health instead of destroying it, which triggers both On Damaged and On Popped effects. If the opponent has a Ceramic Glazing Kiln, it will give +25 Health to the sniped Bloon after the snipe happens, resulting in the Bloon not dying. Passive Awesomeness from a Camo Pattern Bloon will not save the sniped Bloon from dying, but Passive Awesomeness from Zee Jay will.
	This is my little brother When you play a Large Bloon, add a 1 charge Red Bloon into your hand	—
	Clearance Power cards in your hand get 1 gold cheaper at the start of your turn, minimum 1	Does not activate at the start of turn 1. Does not affect Powers that cost Bloontonium.

Potions

Potions can be consumed by the player at any time during a match to activate their effects. The player can hold up to 2 potions at a time and can discard potions from the Supplies menu at any time.

Opponents

Bootcamp / Advanced Training / Veteran

The opponents of stages 1–3, 5–7, and 9–11 are Bloons wearing helmets, which function like Heroes. The helmet determines the name of the opponent and its two abilities. The color can be Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Rainbow, or Ceramic, which determines the deck it uses. For the Military Bloon and Moustache Bloon, the color also determines which Bloons spawn from their passive abilities.

Strategy

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

Striker's Adventure involves some degree of luck and sufficient knowledge of all of the cards. Throughout the Adventure, choose a balanced amount of Bloons, Monkeys, and Powers, as the randomness of new cards may not often suit a pure deck archetype, and try to pick cards that will help in the long-term, such as group-popping Monkeys, cheap but efficient Bloons, and defensive Powers. Most Ultra Rares, especially The Eternal, ARBITR, and Total Transformation Monkey are impactful throughout the run, but not always better than less rare cards. Depending on the Hero picked and its starting party, adapt the strategy to suit the Hero better. Additionally, certain items are very impactful, especially Sharpening Stone (increased Attack Power of Primaries) and Creepy Idol (reduced enemy aggro).

For the final opponent, the strategy varies compared to the previous opponents. Continue defying their AI by wasting their cards too soon while you flawlessly defend against their rushes, however, watch out for additional gimmicks:

• Striker Bloons: Defense is much more important. Bringing more Monkeys is more important than greeding and rushing the opponent. Drain their resources early on, and pile the pressure later in the game.
• Le'Moustachio: 1/4 of the entire deck becomes unusable, substituted by Bombs. Avoid relying entirely on one card as the sole wincon. Heals are an important addition to the deck, but focus more at surviving against leaks while rushing.
• Lead, No Cap: Armor Piercing Monkeys will be helpful against this opponent.
• Imperator Leadius: Early-game is much harder. With certain items such as Creepy Idol, defending won't be so difficult, and later on the game the +1 Gold cost for all cards becomes almost not impactful. Avoid entirely relying on cards with multiple charges.
• Alpha Squad Lead-er: Plenty of healing is important against this opponent.
• Invisi-lead: Time the Bloons such that they leak at every odd turn (e.g. send a Yellow Bloon at an even turn, leaking at an odd turn). Versus the Bombs, have backup options to heal the Hero.
