SnowStorm, a "permaspell"
Water  :water
Permanent
:water

each turn gain a counter
:air :air discard to freeze creatures whose HP is less than the number of counters
for every 3 counters, add a copy of Silence to your hand

i like how you're trying to do the blue trio thing, but adding silence to hand every 3 turns is kinda unnecessary

by discard, you mean destroy right?

yes destroy, and you only get the silences when you destroy the card

it is a lockdown card, it is powerful... maybe it should have a cumulative upkeep, of X  :water, where X is the number of counters

Hmm, the silence part seems a little odd and out of place.
Plastering a creature or permanent makes decent sense, but why the silence?
I would think having spam a bunch of freezes would fit better than creating a bunch of silence cards.

It makes for a good lockdown... I'll give you that, but I'm not sure how you can justify the effect thematically.
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`
You might be a unix junky

ever been outside after a good snow storm?

its very quiet.

for one, most things are still hiding or burrowed from the snow. second, snow is a natural sound dampener. it absorbs sound.
