Fireball Wizard is a Magic Monkey card in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 6.0. It sets the target Bloon on fire.
The card artwork depicts a Fireball Wizard giving the thumbs up while smiling. The environment and the monkey's hat are ignited in embers. Various rocks are scorched.
Tips
This section was last updated for: version 6.2
- A slower method of consistently applying fire than the Burny Stuff Mortar, but can be manually targeted, does more damage, and can attack during a turn. It remains useful for Gwen decks, which benefit from Bloons set on fire.
- Fireball Wizard has one of the highest ATK out of any non-Unique Monkey, making it a solid choice for many decks that struggle with single-target damage during the mid-game. Notably, after ending the opponent's turn with On Fire damage, it does enough damage to pop a Yellow Bloon or a Blooming Bloon buffed by Zee Jay or Amelia, even on Dark Castle.
- Without accounting for On Fire, this is essentially a non-Military Sniper Monkey that costs 3 more Gold and does 10 more damage. Like the Sniper, it's good for single-target damage and benefits from ammo buffs like Ezili's Totem.
- If affected by Buddy Bloon, it attacking is only worth it if wanting to trigger fire synergies such as Gwen's exclusive cards (especially Extreme Heat) or Flame Strike.
Development
During Version 6.2 playtesting, playtesters noted that Fireball Wizard's lack of flexibility is more of an intentional weakness by design, so instead, community playtesters opted for a slight ATK buff,[1][2] making it slightly better for anti-aggro (e.g. one-shotting a Yellow Bloon after On Fire effects) and general use against single targets.[1]
Update history
ATK increased ― 90 → 100
