Stun is an effect in the Bloons TD series, Bloons Supermonkey 2, Bloons Pop!, and Bloons Card Storm that causes Bloons to become stunned. Stunned Bloons stop moving for a limited time.
Bloons TD series
[edit | edit source]Stun is an attack behavior that causes Bloons to stop moving for a limited time. In Bloons TD 6, Bloons Adventure Time TD, and Bloons TD Battles 2, it is treated as a type of slow that simply reduces the speed of Bloons to 0%, and some stunning attacks only affect a limited number of layers, similar to freeze. In other games, it is a distinct effect that always affects all layers.
Some stuns affect all Bloon types, some only affect regular Bloons, and some only affect MOAB-Class Bloons. BADs and Boss Bloons are usually immune to being stunned, even by effects that can stun MOAB-Class Bloons.
Some towers deal extra damage to stunned Bloons, such as Mortar Monkeys with Heavy Shells and Sauda in BTD6.
Cosmetic variants
[edit | edit source]Crystal gem
[edit | edit source]In Bloons Adventure Time TD, the Crystal Gem Apple inflicts a stun variant that visually coats MOAB-Class Bloons in red crystals. Unlike other stun instances, the Crystal Gem Apple can affect BADs.
Pin
[edit | edit source]In Bloons TD 6 and Bloons TD Battles 2, the Engineer Monkey's Pin upgrade allows its nail gun (and Sentries if crosspathed with Sprockets) to inflict a stun variant that visually covers Bloons in nails. The Master Builder's nails in BTD6 also do this, except it can also pin Ceramic and MOAB-Class Bloons (though MOAB-Class Bloons do not display the unique visual effect).
Polymorph
[edit | edit source]In Bloons Adventure Time TD, Polymorph and Gumbald inflict a stun variant that visually turns Bloons into balloon animals.
Web
[edit | edit source]In Bloons Adventure Time TD, the Spider Wand and Web Gun inflict a cosmetic stun variant that visually covers Bloons in webs. Neither of them affect MOAB-Class Bloons, so they cannot be webbed.

Bloons Card Storm
[edit | edit source]| Stunned | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||

Stunned is an effect keyword that prevents Monkeys from attacking on their own or their reload counters from decrementing at the start of their turn. Stunned Monkeys can still attack if another card forces them to, such as Artillery Command. It will not prevent special card effects (e.g. Blade Maelstrom's On Turn End, Jungle's Bounty Druid's On Turn Start). Starting in version 4.0, it can also apply to Bloons, which prevents them from attacking or their delay counters from decrementing at the end of their turn. The delay of Bloons can still be reduced by other means (e.g. Quick Ready, Hastening Bloon). The stun effect cannot stack, only refresh. The effect expires at the end of the target's next turn, after On Turn End effects trigger. Monkeys and Bloons that are stunned display this keyword when selected.
