Ice is a lag block, unpredictable and overpowers experienced players making them even harder to kill. It helps lower ping users have an advantage over higher ping users when used correctly. Higher ping users can fall through ice blocks, whereas lower ping users do not. Only benefit it has is allowing players to move quicker around the map, which means it's less about teamwork and more about individual speed plays.
CTF has always been about keeping everything balanced and giving everyone a fair game. Those who decide to not use ice will more than likely lose against players who do use ice. It wasn't always there like mentioned in this document, I think that is also important to notice. Watch old gameplay videos and play games now. Most games now are won by players who can use ice the fastest to escape with the flag. Whereas before the focus was about tactical decisions and working as a team to hold off the opposition.
