Glue is really good in BTD6. You've got MOAB Glue for slowing down MOAB-class bloons, you've got The Bloon Solver for dealing massive damage to many bloons especially annoying late-game Ceramics. You've also got Corrosive Glue for cheapish Lead poppers. But other than that, there is little about the Glue Gunner that is really cool.

Tack Shooters are cool too in BTD6, though I don't nearly use them as much as other towers, since I often enjoy placing other towers in favor. Nevertheless, their Tack Sprayer path upgrades are really useful, especially Tack Sprayer and Overdrive; both upgrades make good spraying coverage for potential extra damage and pierce.

Ice Monkey, on the other hand, is very weak overall compared to the other towers in the game, overall doing little damage for their price. There is only one pure exception being the the Icicle Impale, which deals so much damage against MOAB-class bloons for such relatively low price (of $30,000 for massive slows and damage is totally worth it), as well as slowing them immensely! However, the rest of the upgrades are really bad for their price. Ice Monkeys have such tiny range. Lower Ice Monkeys are best placed around corners, but they easily miss bloons and have only up to 40 pierce, while a Tack Shooter will miss less often around corners. Ice Shards is not as OP as in BTD5; you'll need to shell out something like a Cluster Bombs or Recursive Cluster in combo to make the Ice Shards shard their most powerfully. Super Brittle does almost nothing to MOAB-class bloons, especially with almost no range at all compared to what its power should be; a Cripple MOAB is much more reliable at vulnerabling the MOAB-class bloons, even if nearly double the price. Absolute Zero isn't the permaslow upgrade we used to know; it only freezes MOAB-class for a shortish period and it costs $32,000 for the upgrade alone. Arctic Wind cannot even evidently slow down the bloons because its range is so tiny, since it has only the default tiny range that the Ice Monkey always has.
