While it lacks the Health to repeatedly lock down enemy minions, it works excellently as an easy way to prevent enemy heroes from attacking early, especially [[weapon]]-using Warrior, Druid and Rogue decks, and can allow it to effectively defend itself and other minions from attack.

Notes

Strategy

Works well in Freeze Mage decks, providing a way to slow enemy attacks and activate LegacyIce Lance. If used to attack the enemy hero, can be used on multiple turns, making Ice Lance far less dependent on LegacyFrostbolt for its damage. This in turn can free up mana for other damage spells, allowing the mage more flexibility in their burst combos. Even without specific Freeze synergy, this is a solid pick for any Mech Mage deck.

Frozen enemy minions activate LegacyIcicle, Whispers of the Old GodsShatter, Knights of the Frozen ThroneColdwraith and Mean Streets of GadgetzanCryomancer. Snowchugger's survivability can be increased with Magnetic buffs.

While it lacks the Health to repeatedly lock down enemy minions, it works excellently as an easy way to prevent enemy heroes from attacking early, especially weapon-using Warrior, Druid and Rogue decks, and can allow it to effectively defend itself and other minions from attack.
