Frost Nova

Control / Freeze

A freezing shockwave that locks down nearby packs and turns clusters into chain reactions.

Frost Nova is a high-impact crowd-control tool. It expands in radius and freeze time, then starts punishing the end of the freeze with shatter and mini-nova spread.

Work in progress: This entry reflects the current implementation. Balance, effects, names, visuals, progression, and even the number of levels may change during development.
