It has no targeting options, since it will either attack or not attack. When not upgraded to Tier 3 or higher, [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|ceramic]] freeze duration is reduced by half. By default, it cannot target or affect [[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB-class Bloons]]. It can be placed on both land and water. | ||

Although Ice Monkeys tend to have a high pierce, they are best used for their slowing and freezing utility. | |||
Be cautious of pairing ice monkeys near monkeys that cannot harm frozen without the proper upgrades. Path 1, 4th upgrade ([[Embrittlement]] and [[Super Brittle]]) negates this. | |||
022 Ice Monkeys can take out all non-special bloons, including the first golden bloon. | |||
For late game, 5-2-0 is the best all around for damage and support. 0-2-5 is the highest damage, except for BADs. It can solo DDTs with camo detection from another source (e.g. a -2- Monkey Village). 0-5-2 provides the greatest support, slowing or freezing up to 300 bloons for other monkeys to attack. | |||
