Viable sorc opener build?

I’ve been spending quite a bit of time checking out guides, video etc on sorc builds particularly when it comes to leveling. Using the D2 planner I put the following together for a Frozen orb/FB 1-40 starter build with the ability to continue on maxing orb through NM.
Please feel free to critique but if you think it sucks and I suck at least give compelling reasons why!

3 things I want to accomplish here.

  1. Fun build, I’ve always been partial to Frozen orb sorc
  2. Viable
  3. No respec needed at least until more end game stuff.
