Needs the cost increased by 2 or it should not be castable on champions.
Nope it’s fine.
Unlike other classes spells of simular or higher level it doesn’t break the balance of the game and INSTANTLY turn a curb stomping into Ultimate victory.
It needs to only freeze the target instead of the whole board
7 cost for the card is fine. There’s nothing wrong with this card.
It will not happen anytime soon. Blizzard is doing what they do best and forcing people to buy, buy, buy JUST to compete in their unbalanced game.
Only 2 classes have above a 50% win rate rest are 48.5% and below while the top 2 are 53.5% win rates. That is a 5% difference between DK/Shaman and the rest of the decks with the worst class Warrior at a mere 41% win rate.
Trust me THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT REAL BALANCE only balance that helps them steal your money.
The problem with this stupid card is Blizzard a Mage card is 6 mana to freeze the entire board but only does 2 damage. This does 5 damage to whoever you throw it on (hero) and freezes entire board + gives you a 5/5 for 1 more mana.
If anything Blizzard needs to go down to 5 mana or Fury needs to go to 8 mana.
i thought frost dk stopped running this card
The closest comparison is Blizzard from mages. This does 2 damage to board and freezes it. If you are against someone whom does not flood the board, the card is literally useless.
This can do damage to face, spawns a 5/5 board presence and freezes the board.
Honestly it should cost 9.
Do the math.
Fireball; 6 damage to target - 4 mana
Frost nova; freeze board - 3 mana (they retired this card BECAUSE of the affect)
5/5 minion - 5 mana (maybe 4)
Best case is 11 mana overall for one less damage but you save two card slots. I think 9 mana cost is reasonable.
It’s perfect as it is.
