Icebox was always that one annoying map where you tried to win as many rounds as possible as Attackers and went for some wacky tactics as Defenders. With the changes brought by the 4.04 update, this map should be a bit more fun to play, so I guess it's official – Fracture is the worst map in the game! But jokes aside, here are all the changes on Icebox for Episode 4 Act 2.
