The Herald of Everfrost is a cheap but very effective supporting Paragon for [[Boss Events]] and [[Freeplay]]. Instead of DPS, its value comes from its massive bonus damage via debuff and an ability capable of skipping Boss skull effects and freezing even {{BTD6|BAD}}s.

Time the Eclipse of Fimbulwinter carefully versus BADs and Bosses, as it is limited by its long delay and cooldown. Since the ability cannot carry over rounds, it must be timed during a round within its delay.

Towers that work well with {{BTD6|Super Brittle}} perform even better with it. The Cold bonus is not too impactful unless using a pseudo-Shatter (e.g. {{BTD6 mk|Hot Magic}} on {{BTD6|Bloonjitsu}}s and {{BTD6|Shinobi Tactics}}, and {{BTD6 mk|Hard Tacks}} on {{BTD6|Overdrive}}s+) that is not affected by a Lead-popping external buff like [[Acidic Mixture Dip (BTD6)|Acidic Mixture Dip]] or [[Monkey Intelligence Bureau (BTD6)|Monkey Intelligence Bureau]], and has a strong synergy with [[Popseidon]] especially with its ability.

This Paragon shines in Freeplay, complementing the aforementioned Bloonjitsu + Shinobi Tactics strategy. Despite its ability's long cooldown and round restriction, it along with [[Time Stop]]s are the only ways to slow BADs, and these effects stack.
