Blooming Bloon is a Basic Bloon card in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 5.0. If it pops, it summons one Yellow Bloon. If it leaks to the opponent's Hero, it summons up to three Yellow Bloons, with a minimum of one depending on remaining board space. Leaking a Blooming will not decrease delay of its summoned Bloons.
Tips
This section was last updated for: version 6.1
- For its price of 4 Gold, Blooming Bloon is powerful. Not popping it is very punishing, and it requires immediate attention if sent. Countering it early on can be difficult if you draw poorly, especially if the opponent is using Zee Jay to buff its health further, or Amelia to protect it.
- The easiest way to counter it is to pop it before it leaks, resulting in only one Yellow to deal with instead of three. Countering the offspring is more difficult, however, especially versus aggro and when encountering Gold-sabotaging cards such as Economy Drain.
- Targeting Blooming Bloon is a priority, as it is one of Aggro’s strongest Bloons. Aggro decks frequently run it, so preparing for it pre-emptively is a must when fighting Aggro.
- Running burst removal such as Robo Monkey, Bloon Redirect, and Overload is effective at taking it out before it becomes a threat. Zee Jay’s passive can buff it over Overload’s health range if you are playing on Dark Castle.
- Quincy has multiple options versus an early Blooming Bloon. Storm Of Arrows and Rapid Shot will pop the Blooming Bloon layer if there's a few Bloons. Alternatively, assuming no HP buffs, use Bloontonium Cache and enough Bloon cards to get 9 Bloontonium (or just the former if the map is BRefinery), then do three Arrow Shots.
- Outside of Dark Castle and if not buffed by any Hero's passive (specifically Zee Jay, Amelia, or Ezili), Bomb Shooter, Crossbow Monkey, and Barrel Of Monkeys (if 4 are played) can pop Blooming Bloons in a single turn.
- Sniper Monkey can pop Blooming Bloon if that Bloon is not buffed by Zee Jay or Amelia, with the advantage of one-shotting it on Dark Castle and with Ezili at the same time. Night Vision Sniper can pop Blooming Bloon outside of either Zee Jay plus Dark Castle or Amelia (even without Dark Castle). A minor buff (e.g. Zee Jay's Rad Enhancements) is required for either Sniper against a buffed Blooming Bloon.
- Long Range Rang followed by enough Bloon damage from a Monkey or Power can also pop the Blooming before it leaks. Be sure to have at least 3 Gold and afford additional Monkeys. In the worst case scenario, a Long Range Rang would damage the Blooming Bloon to 40 Health without further buffs from cards.
- Without Cash Drop, Player 2 can begin a Blooming Bloon on Round 2, or Round 1 on High Finance, or Round 3 or 2 respectively for Player 1.
- By Round 3, Player 1 has a budget of 6 Gold, enough for a variety of counters, or 5 Gold on Round 2 at High Finance. On the other hand, on the same rounds, Player 2 would have 7 Gold, or 6 Gold at High Finance.
- Conveniently, Blooming Bloon (assuming no discounts) produces enough Bloontonium to activate Amelia's Bloon Shield passive.
- If running Zee Jay, a leaked Blooming Bloon's first Yellow will count for his Passive Enhancements, thus guaranteeing 1 Rad Token for that round.
- Note that the spawned Yellows effectively have 2 delay relative to the opponent. So, as the opponent, saving up to Thunder Druid can be done if the Blooming Bloon was sent later than Round 2.
