Icicles is a strong tower in [[Race Event]]s, thanks to it producing a large amount of icicles from the multitude of Bloons that it hits. Elsewhere, Icicles is a decent mid-game tower, being specialized for dense rounds while dealing alright damage to blimps. However, it is held back by its unreliability against pop White and Zebra Bloons, and thus is only recommended as a supplement to the defense or as a stepping stone for {{B|Icicle Impale|BTD6}}. For Races and general gameplay, 0-2-4 is the recommended crosspath for increased attack speed from {{B|Enhanced Freeze|BTD6}} and extra pierce from {{B|Deep Freeze|BTD6}}. | |||
