'''Lifeguard Brickell''' is a [[Hero Skin]] for [[Admiral Brickell (BTD6)|Admiral Brickell]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', introduced in {{BTD6 version|38.0}}. This skin costs {{BTD6 mm|2500}} to unlock. The skin turns her from an Admiral into a lifeguard, sitting in an inflatable raft and wielding a water pistol instead of a revolver. She wears a white shirt with an orange life preserver symbol on it, a pair of orange shorts, white jandals, and wears a ponytail.

==Strategy==

In ''[[Rogue Legends]]'', Lifeguard Brickell starts with a Mermonkey, Heli Pilot and the Summer Fun artifact. The Mermonkey provides good damage as well as the ability to upgrade into the highly powerful [[Alluring Melody]], providing additional stall and, in its later tiers, bonuses to Brickell herself. The Heli Pilot is relatively expensive, but useful as it has innate Camo Bloon detection and can upgrade into [[MOAB Shove (BTD6)|MOAB Shove]] or [[Downdraft (BTD6)|Downdraft]] to stall for Brickell's abilities and mines. The artifact also helps stall for her abilities, albeit not as much.
