The '''Freezer''' is a ground [[Towers|tower]] that fires an ice beam and applies chill and slow down enemies, freezing at later levels. It can be bought in the store for {{Coins|650}}.

The '''Freezer''' targets a single enemy and fires a ''Frost Ray'', chilling the enemy and slowing it down. The chillness slowness effect stacks with each hit multiple times. This chillness effect also deals damage over time, chipping away the health of enemies affected by it. Starting from Level 2, it can freeze enemies. When the chillness slowness effect is higher than the max slowdown, the enemy will be frozen, which generally when targeting a single enemy takes four or five shots. Larger enemies will be frozen for a shorter amount of time than average sized enemies. Enemies with [[Freeze Immunity]] also cannot be frozen, slowed down or have their defense dropped by the '''Freezer'''.

At Level 3+, the '''Freezer''' fires in bursts, with a short delay between them. Additionally, at Level 3+, it drops defense by 10% every tick. It can only decrease an enemy's defense by 33%. For example, if an enemy has 50% defense, it will be decreased by 16%. On top of this, it will also start dealing damage over time with its chill at Level 3. Additionally at Level 4, the '''Freezer''' gains the ability to throw a '''Frost Grenade''', freezing enemies within an explosion radius.

The '''Freezer''' does well as an all-rounder support tower. Due to its generally low price and decent DPS, the '''Freezer''' can be a solid choice for early-game defense to mid game with very good cost efficiency. Towards late game, the '''Freezer''' is useful for stalling, defense melting and deal additional DPS through its damage over time, though its DPS is insufficient to deal with late-game waves alone.

The '''Freezer''' has [[Lead (Attribute)|lead]] detection from Level 0 and [[Hidden (Attribute)|hidden]] detection from level 2. It has no placement limit.

*The '''Freezer''' is an excellent choice to deal with early waves, especially when multiple are placed down, due to its cost efficiency and low price.

**Other towers should be used against higher health enemies like the [[Fallen Giant]].

**Later on, it does not have enough DPS to handle other enemies, due to their much higher health, but can still be used for stall.

*The '''Freezer''' can be used to deal with [[Lead (Attribute)|lead]] and [[Hidden (Attribute)|hidden]] enemies early on, which can be very useful in [[Hardcore Mode]].

** The '''Freezer''' plays a very similar role in early-game defense to [[Golden Scout]], making '''Freezer''' a viable alternative to it.

**The defense drop can stack with other towers, such as the [[Pyromancer]], [[Electroshocker]], [[Toxic Gunner]] or [[Jester]], allowing you to remove all of an enemy's defense.

*When the '''Frezer''' was first released, it did not have any statistics for its upgrade descriptions. Instead, its upgrade description was "sans ice gun".

*Prior to the 5th of May 2023, the {{Color|Other|IcyTea}} skin decreased the '''Freezer's''' placement footprint. It was the only skin that could decrease the tower's placement footprint.

**It was also one of the only skins in the game to change a tower in any other way than its appearance at the time, with the other being {{Color|Premium|XR500}} [[Turret]].
