Ice (BSM2)

Ice is one of the seven weapon types in Bloons Super Monkey 2 Mobile, dealing Metal Freeze damage, with arms having the ability to pop frozen bloons. Ice weapons are only available in Bloons Supermonkey 2 Mobile and are not available in the flash version. This damage type is still available though in the flash version, as the Cold Snap powerup lets players deal ice damage in the flash version. Ice weapons are generally characterized by long range single target damage and freezing bloons, but mediocre single target damage. Lategame weapons such as Triple Snowflakes deals heavy damage to single targets, but struggles somewhat with groups of bloons. There are other ice weapons, notably Avalanche and Yeti Sidekick, excel at freezing bloons, but deal pitiful damage and frozen bloons can fall off screen when thawing. While similar to Storm weapons in that their cores both provide great crowd control utility, Ice Arms specialize in single-target damage, while Storm Arms specialize in group popping power.

Despite being technically in the ice category. Snap Freeze deals Normal damage, and the freeze affects white bloons starting with rank 2. Similarly, the freeze effect of Sub Zero Shots affects all bloons, although it deals no extra damage on its own. The powerup Blizzard Boots deals no damage, but is thematically related to the ice category of damage because of its ability to freeze bloons.

Notes

Yeti Sidekick originally could not freeze Shielded Bloons. This was changed in Version 1.1.1. Yeti Sidekick is thus the one of the few epic weapons to receive a balance change on BSM2 Mobile.
