    Frost Elemental is crying frozen tears.

    I like this quite a bit, Neutral Freeze is always appreciated and makes arena more interesting and it also gives support for the mechanic without having to waste mage slots.

     

    I tried having fun once.

    It was awful.

    That's a pretty good card for first-time players getting this card from packs, a nice packfiller too.

    Nice packfiller, but thats mainly it. Oh and decent in arena.

    RNG is only fun as long as there is a 50/50 chance of getting something really good or trash level of bad. If RNG always results in something good, then it's not fun.

    This is not pack filler. Its actually good enough to see play. Basically its a sap for one turn with a vanilla stated body. Except for mage, no other class have something like this. And its 3 mana, far easier to use than Frost Elemental.

    So a mini Maiev Shadowsong. Has potential, really.

    Maybe it will see play, trying to freeze this big Van Cleef for yet another turn until you gather enough minions to defeat this monster.

     

     

    Nah, who am I kidding... very niche card that I doubt will see any constructed play.

    Glacial Shard for comparison.

    Shard was better as a tech card, but Weaver is much better with Tempo, as her body cannot be easily pinged away.

    But it will go below radars, with players preferring synergy cards in their decks.

    Yet I believe the card will be heavily underestimated: you need quite some synergy to justify another card instead of Weaver, at least in Tempo decks.

    you're laughing, but what will you do once the amount of freeze cards reaches critical mass and Moorabi takes over Wild?

    Mini Maiev Shadowsong an okay comparison, but comparing to Sap isn't really right. One of the big advantages of Sap is that you can punish your opponent for playing a big minion by forcing them to spend their next turn replaying it. For two mana, they effectively lose a turn.

    Frozen Shadoweaver may neutralize a big minion for a turn, but your opponent will still be free to respond to your board while they wait for their guy to thaw.

    Maybe see play in highlander mage, it's a proactive and reactive card at the same time, with decent statline could see play.

    stronger version of glacial shard but weaker version of frost elemental..glacial shard was played in a lot of standard decks due to its low cost so this one might be only useful in arena..

    Very strong agressive card, will probably see play in a lot of highlander decks

    Infinite Shudderwock decks are coming closer and closer to the point where they can win by real life fatiguing their opponent. This card would be wonderful if it was a 3/4, but this stat distribution feels a little too vulnerable.

    This post is discussing the wild format.

    "She still wears her Frozen Shadoweave set despite the many, many nerfs. She just can't let it go!" - is that a callout, that they expect many, many nerfs after the release?

    Cute card for aggressive deck. Freezing mechainc is strong and with a decent body is more than enough to see play

    The next Glacial Shard. More difficult to use because of the mana cost, but there will still be some out there that desire a Neutral Freeze card.

    This card's just a bigger glacial shard. 

    Nothing too fancy, but it's cost may make it not usable in some deck lists

    Neutral freeze with 4 mana. Some deck will want to use this because they dont have access to stalling.

    That's me honestly.

    I always support the non-neutral idea which defends the opinion that there shouldn't be neutral cards in Hearthstone. I always think that it kills the identity of classes, for example Silence for all classes with Spellbreaker, and somehow Mages can control Beasts weirdly while it should be Hunter which can only control beasts etc.

    But, while the game is in this state and if there will continue to be neutral cards, then all mechanics should be in there so every classes, more or less, can reach all of the mechanics. So There should be neutral freezes in this opinion which i find this card well enough. :)

    Is a 4/3 Glacial Shard really worth 2 more mana?

    Probably not. Pass.

    Nifty combat trick in arena, though. That's probably where this guy will shine.

    Cheap freezing, so it’ll probably see bits of play here and there, for the 2/1 elemental, it being an elemental usually didn’t make much of a difference

    Who needs consistency when you could have fun?

    Not the best, but perhaps useful as filler for arena decks.

    Not quite as good as Glacial Shard, but still appreciated. Cards like this always seem to find a home somewhere.

    A decent board control card, better stats for cost than either of the neutral elementals that do the same thing. Mages might want this in order to get more damage out of Ray of Frost. I don't play a lot of arena, but I guess this will thrive more there than constructed.
