Archer's Instinct is an Exotic Power card in Bloons Card Storm. It allows the player to pick from three cards. The player cannot play this if their hand is full, even if the card only has one charge left. It can only be added to Quincy decks.
Tips
- Archer's Instinct is best used in the early to midgame to draw out potentially strong cards sooner, especially finishers such as Quick Ready. The caveat is the exclusivity to Quincy.
- Compared to other Pick cards, Archer's Instinct is the cheapest and comes with two charges instead of one, but has no special effect based on the card picked. It's also rarer than Adora's Divination.
- Quincy has the most possible pickable cards via Archer's Instinct, for up to 18 possible picks, and with the fewest cards needed to tie with Heroes with more than one type of Pick card (Amelia and Ezili).
- Avoid being at full hand, or else any Archer's Instinct regardless of charge amounts will not be able to be played.
- Archer’s Instinct is an extremely powerful OTK tool, as Archer’s Instinct allows Quincy to cycle through a large amount of your deck.
- Searching for cards like Improved Fortification, Fortify, Rare Power, and other non-rare or non-ultra rare powers is easiest with Archer’s Instinct.
- Quincy should use this in most of his decks going later on, due to the sheer amount of cards he can cycle through, allowing Quincy faster OTKs than other heroes.
Update history
Charges increased ― 1 → 2
Can no longer be played if the hand is full (undocumented) (bug) - Note: Not allowing a two-charge Archer's Instinct to be played when full is intended, one-charge disallowance is not
