Embrittlement is somewhat map-dependent tower but a versatile support. In its optimal locations that allow wide coverage, such as a 90° bend, Embrittlement reliably provides de-camo, de-regrow (mainly against [[Lych]]), de-lead, and damage amplifiers, all within a cheap price. | Embrittlement is somewhat map-dependent tower but a versatile support.

Embrittlement's best synergies are towers that shoot high amounts of projectiles and attack quickly (e.g. [[Overdrive (BTD6)|Overdrive]]), because the flat damage amplification provides a large DPS increase. Most of its best synergies benefit much from Embrittlement, since most of them are weak to {{BTD6|DDT}}s. In particular, Embrittlement + Overdrives is a powerful strategy against [[Boss Bloon]]s (except {{BTD6|Vortex}}). {{BTD6|Bloon Sabotage}} is recommended support to compensate Embrittlement's otherwise poor consistency against DDTs. | Embrittlement's best synergies are towers that shoot high amounts of projectiles and attack quickly (e.g. [[Overdrive (BTD6)|Overdrive]]), because the flat damage amplification provides a large DPS increase.

[[Enhanced Freeze (BTD6)|Enhanced Freeze]] is the preferred crosspath, increasing rate of debuffs enough to have permanent uptime on continuous hits. [[Deep Freeze (BTD6)|Deep Freeze]] is mildly useful, allowing self-sharding in the absence of external speed buffs. [[Larger Radius (BTD6)|Larger Radius]] is better if it already has many attack speed buffs, and [[Re-Freeze (BTD6)|Re-Freeze]] is not necessary unless interacting with multiple Ice Monkeys. | [[Enhanced Freeze (BTD6)|Enhanced Freeze]] is the preferred crosspath, increasing rate of debuffs enough to have permanent uptime on continuous hits.
