Try this! is an Exotic Power card in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 2.0. The target Monkey gains 1 max Ammo and additionally gains a free shot. If a monkey made progress on reloading when Try this is used, it does not reset the turns required before the next reload, but any additional progress will not be made for said reload if the player does not use the extra ammo.
Tips
- Monkeys with only 1 ammo per reload benefit the most from Try This!
- Try This synergizes well with The Big One, allowing it to deal up to 560 damage at the end of a turn.
- It also lets Spike-o-Pult ramp up twice as fast, provided that there are enough bloons on the field.
- Wizard Monkey decently benefits from Try This, essentially doubling up its scaled power.
- Burny Stuff Mortar has more opportunities to burn every enemy bloon, particularly for Gwendolin decks.
- Try This does NOT activate monkeys with an "On-reload"'s ability such as Arcane Master so avoid using this on these monkeys unless you want to give them 1 more max ammo.
- Opponents who use Return to Sender, Shrink and Expert Negotiator may take advantage of Monkeys with Try This to neutralize the investment.
- If you have multiple of the same type of Monkey, it may be better to split Try This across multiple Monkeys if suspecting any monkey removal cards.
- A lesser known feature of Try This is immediately granting 1 extra shot to the targeted Monkey. For 1 less Gold than Quick Reload, Try This acts as a "reload" to 1-Ammo Monkeys, in addition to the permanent max ammo bonus.
- Because of this, a very niche tactic of Try This on an opponent Monkey with more than 1 Ammo will delay the full reload by 1 turn, at the penalty of "helping" build more ammo.
