Iceman

Stats: These stats are OK, but they pretty well limit Iceman to energy only teams. His hero from the X-Men set will most likely be the hero to use because of the five in fighting, but there is no real difference. The 18 point for decbuilding is a plus.

Inherent Ability: Iceman: The Ice-Man's inherent is ok. It can't hurt you, but it won't help you much either. The most you would get is two to three points, and then you run the risk of him being KO'd and then his IA is useless. On his IQ hero, that inherent is worthless to me. Snow Blind is not good enough to warrant putting in a bunch of them so that the IA would be useful. I have seen decks that use 6-8 Snow Blinds, but then they always get rocked in card advantage.
Specials:
* BLOOD CHILL (AS) {VR} [OPD] Acts as a level 10 Energy attack.
There should be more of these specials. Use it.
* FROSTBITE (AE) {R} Acts as a level 4 Energy attack. May combine with 1 Fighting card for a single attack.
A good card especially for The Ice-man.
* HAIL STORM (AD) {U} Teammate may avoid any numerical attack.
A good card because it makes Iceman a target that draws attacks away from the big characters on his team. The negative is that your opponent attacks Iceman and this card is useless. Still, I use two.
* ICE ARMOR (AG) {VR} Avoid 1 attack.
Works great if you can get it early in the game and place it to force your opponent to attack someone else and make Hail Storm a powerful card.
* ICE TACTICS (AI) {C} Target hero must discard 1 Placed card of Iceman's choice.
Not as good as the "Opponenet must discard" version of this special, but still, it is a powerful special.
* OPAL TANAKA (AF) {U} Add 3 to Venture total for this battle.
Nope
* SNOW BLIND (CM) {R} Opponent's heroes are -1 to all actions for remainder of battle.
See my comments on Inherent Ability. I don't use these.
* SUB-ZERO (AR) {VR} Acts as a level 6 Strength attack.
A good attack in an off power. Use it.
Overall: Iceman is a good character. Nice offense, nice defense. Unfortunately, Iceman has basically the same good specials as Scarlet Witch(discard, big attack OPD, six strength attack) but Scarlet Witch has negates and Iceman doesn't and she only counts as 17 points.
