Well, frozen creatures are supposed to be encased in a block of ice, so it wouldn't make much sense if water killed them. They're "protected", in a certain sense.

I was thinking about making airborne creatures immune, but I'm not sure about that either. What do you think?

-Add a 'hyphen' symbol, or a '-' between the words/parts, "non" and "frozen" in the TEXT section of the table to match it with the image.

I don't think they should. If we're going directly by the 'Flooding' mechanic, the only thing that it's basing the ability to kill or not kill the creature is its element (Water and Malignant Cells are immune obviously) and its status (Burrowed and immaterial creatures are unaffected). So if you're using this in a mono-water deck, then it's basically a specialized form of Flooding that doesn't target rows, but otherwise, it's a major gamble in other decks that don't have that type of protection. >_>

At least that's what I think. ^^;

So it's UP?

So it's UP?

Uh... kind of? ^^;


Aside from the turn duration and the ability cost, the 'Freeze' effect doesn't really do it much justice. If a light dragon was frozen from Neptune's Permafrost Shield in the top row, and then Flooding was played, it -still- dies anyway; the ice/congealed effect shouldn't protect it from being drowned, damaged, and destroyed in a torrent of massive water. 

Just a thought.

Maybe you're right and I'll tweak it so that it drowns frozen creatures too. Anyway, IMHO it's not UP, just much better if used in stall/control decks. What do you think?

The concept of this card is really cool.  Ice floats on water, so the frozen creature are safe from drowning. 

Could further strengthen  / duo other than just poisoning from the first sight.
