Previous availability

• Regular Blizzard could also be obtained as a first-time reward for first time reaching Silver 10 and Gold 10 in Ranked mode from April 1, 2020 to March 25, 2021 (or as a reward of Climbing the Ranks (2/10) and (4/10) achievements).

Notes

• This spell has two steps:
  • First, it deals its area of effect damage to all enemy minions, queuing and resolving triggers in order of play (see damage for details);
  • Then, it freezes all enemy minions, including newly spawned and undamaged ones.

Strategy

Blizzard's mass-freeze mechanic coupled with its 2 AoE damage can make it a deadly mass-removal card. Keep in mind that freeze only affects a minion's ability to attack, and silencing a frozen minion will remove the freeze effect.

Trivia
