    Yeah, It’s just Really good.
    Both Mage and Rouge can see some use of it whenever they need to.
    It almost feels like the Spirit of Glical Shard has Returned.

    4 Stars.

    It’s a nice utility card you could either freeze a minion right out or combo and do 3 dmg. Even if the 3 dmg would kill it the card is still valuable as a one cost that that either shutdown or kills a minion for one turn.

    Trash spell. Probably meant to make the mage spell card pool worse. Ok for rouge

    Ice Lance but not as twinspell. It can be Frostbolt, but Frostbolt is something you want to use as opener, not as follow up.
    The fact it is a cheap spell for classes that can make use low cost of it is nice, but the effect is just bad. Can be a good Discovery from Magic Trick of Etheral Lackey though. 2/5 Stars.

    Mozaki, Ras Frostwhisper and all the Spell Damage Stuff is nothing I could possibly imagine as more than meme deck, so no bonus there.

    1 mana frostbolt for rogue. 0 mana frostbolt for mage. with cards like this combo’d with incanter’s flow i can really see mozaki being a big threat

    Perhaps this can combo in a weird way with Mozaki. Also think about Incanter’s flow ….Maybe there will be some weird decks with Antonidas ..who knows – 2.5/5 rating from me

    This card is bad and will not see play. Mage only cares about the freeze, and already has a better version of it (ray of frost). Rogue wants face damage, which this doesn’t give them. And if they want minion removal, they have vendetta, which is better than this card.

    It’s just ~holy smite, which is a bad card.

      Except it’s a 1 mana freeze for rogues. Mages may not want to play it but I think it could work as a stall/combo activator for some rogue types.

      This expansion is crazy and I have a really hard time telling what cards will work and which cards won’t but I’m so confused by statements like yours. “This card is bad and will not see play” – mind if I come back in a few months and see if you were correct or not? 😉

    Great for spellburst effects, great to randomly generate from things like Cyclone or ethereal lackey.

    I don’t know.. The fact that this doesn’t go face and deals 0 damage unless you pair it with something really turns me off from this card. 3 damage for 1 looks great on paper but aren’t there better options for this already on both classes.

      Oh yeah, 2 stars. People seem to rate just about everything in this expansion 4-5 stars smh.

        Weird right? It’s like people have forgotten what bad cards are because DoD and Demon Hunter have messed everything up.

      I also think it doesn’t deserve 5 stars, but it might deserve a 3. After all freezing is a useful effect as was shown by Frozen Shadoweaver. While I don’t think this card is great enough to see play on its own without any particular synergies, it is not a bad card to generate or discover.

        Firstly, Frozen shadoweaver is good because it comes with a nice body and it can freeze anything… This only hits minions and if you really wanna freeze minions then mage has ray of frost which is way better and Rogue can just run Frostweaver. I just don’t think this card is something Mage would run over the other options. Might see play on Rogue though.

          Unless you’re facing a Demon Hunter you will want to freeze a minion and not face in 80% of cases. Seeing as 4 classes out of 10 run non-meme weapons currently, and Rogues barely have a viable weapon in the meta, so that’s more like 3.

          You might be right for Mage. It is however quite a cheap spell. The effect, if you trigger the combo isn’t bad for 1-mana. If you discover it from Magic Trick or something, it’s not a bad roll at all.

          Now about Rogue. Why would Rogue want to run this over Frozen Shadoweaver? Hmm… it’s better with Edwin. You could also consider using it as a Combo activator even if you don’t get the damage, it’s not the best but not the worst either. More importantly though, it’s also a good spell to trigger Spellburst with.

          2 stars in Mage perhaps, I think it has some degree of potential in Rogue. We just have yet to see if it will make the cut. Chances are, it won’t, but as I said it’s quite a good card to randomly generate, with Cobalt Spellkin for instance.

    This is just like frost bolt except 1 Mana less, can only go minions and the damage is locked behind combo. Not mage and rouge will get lot of use ot of this and I think mainly for the first turn plays and it’s freeze effects
    Easy 5/5
