Absolute Zero (BTD6)

Absolute Zero is one of the most potent slowdowns in the whole game. The faster and longer freezing ability and its aura's MOAB-Class slowdown, combined with its low T5 cost, makes it excel at stalling bloons. The extreme freezing pierce and the secondary freeze across the screen also minimize non-blimp leaks. Provided the defenses don't have trouble against Frozen, this is an excellent support tower to add in ~~every game~~. Absolute Zero also works as an end-of-round staller, so other abilities can cool off before the next round. The 50% attack speed buff to all Ice Monkeys with the ability ~~is a good bonus~~.

Absolute Zero also works as an end-of-round staller, so other abilities can cool off before the next round. The 50% attack speed buff to all Ice Monkeys with the ability helps with certain niche strategies such as [[Icicles (BTD6)|Icicles]] spam or boosting the attack speed of Ice Monkeys affected by [[Total Transformation (BTD6)|Total Transformation]].

If placed on water, it synergizes particularly with [[Energizer (BTD6)|Energizer]] to halve its ability cooldown, for more than 100% uptime, and also great with [[Admiral Brickell (BTD6)|Brickell]] strategies.

Despite its increased pierce that makes 0-5-2 very reliable at catching leaking Bloons, 1-5-0 is the recommended crosspath for the Permafrost benefits and innate ability to freeze {{B|DDT|BTD6}}s, though 2-5-0 is necessary when transitioning from [[Snowstorm (BTD6)|Snowstorm]]. However, 0-5-2 is useful for increasing the range of the frozen water effect, providing the largest ~~swath~~ of frozen water out of any Ice Monkey and allowing many land towers to be placed.
