Dire Wolf is a classless Monkey card in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 5.0. It is generated when Mountain Obyn uses his Summon Dire Wolf ability. When it attacks, it deals splash damage to Bloons adjacent to the target. Despite doing splash damage, it doesn't have the Splash Damage keyword. It can be part of a deck on certain Daily Challenges and other challenges.
Tips
This section was last updated for: version 5.1
- Dire Wolf is a very strong free Monkey but requires max Bloontonium to make. It's worth keeping on the board.
- Dire Wolf, although very strong, has only 50 damage per turn against single targets. Although it is recommended to summon Dire Wolf, placing too many on the board without supporting strong single target monkeys can make high-health Bloons threatening.
- Unlike the normal Wolf, the Dire Wolf should be treated more as a permanent Monkey, as it's valuable at taking down groups of bloons for 1 delay.
- Some players may use Expert Negotiator to steal a Dire Wolf.
- Like Triple Shot, Dire Wolf is very receptive to changes in Attack Power.
- Weakening Gas Bloon can weaken Dire Wolf if there's 1 or no bloons before or after that Bloon. In that case, avoid letting it attack.
- On the other hand, Weapon Enhancer Bloon is a good way to improve its grouped damage.
- It pairs very well with Try this! and Howl. Be wary of using Howl in Mountain Obyn decks though, as it provides no value before a Dire Wolf is summoned, and can make defending more difficult due to a more clogged hand.
Update history
- Attacking now removes Armor from the target when buffed by Armor Piercing (bug fix)
