- "I've spotted a Frost Necromancer!...and a Frost Hero?!"
File:FrostWave35-1.ogg - ―Commander on Wave 37 (Frost)
Description
[edit]The Frost Hero is a strong enemy that appears in the Frost mode. Like most of that mode's enemies, it first appeared in the Operation I.C.E Event. It has a high amount of health, however, it is one of the slowest enemies in the mode to compensate for that. When initially spawning in, it is a Flying enemy. It has one ability, where it targets up to three towers. With each hit, it freezes the targeted tower for 5 seconds, similarly stunning any other tower hit and also dealing 250 damage to units. All hits boost its Defense by 10% with no limit while on its third hit, it will float up into the air, making it a Flying enemy briefly.
Logbook Description
[edit]"Frost Heroes are the champions of their craft, the most fearless fighters in the Frost Spirit's army. Adorned with the finest crystallized armor and woven Crystalline Frost Spinner silk, their decorated appearance matches their weapon—forged by The Maker himself. As the most devoted members of the Frost Army, Frost Heroes are capable enough to strike and stun towers."
Appearance
[edit]The Frost Hero has its entire body covered in blue, crystalized armor, which consists of a helmet, chestplate, spiked shoulder-pads, gloves, leg padding and shoes. It also wears a dark blue shirt and pants made out of Crystalline Frost Spinner Silk. On its torso, it also has a brown belt. On its back, it has a set of blue angelic wings, which it can use to fly in the air. In its right hand it wields a grey sword with blue crystals on the edges, which it uses to attack towers with.
Strategy
[edit]- High DPS towers like the Pursuit, Ranger, Accelerator or Engineer are great against the Frost Hero due to its high health.
- The Ranger and Pursuit are especially useful, due to their high range and stun immunity.
- The Medic can be used to shield towers from its attack, though do note that it attacking towers three times may lead to a tower getting hit more than once.
- Towers with flying detection can be useful as they will not stop for brief periods of time from it becoming a Flying enemy, though this is not a requirement for a tower to easily take it down.
- The Ranger and Pursuit are especially useful, due to their high range and stun immunity.
- The Frost Hero initially has no Defense, though it will gain 10% Defense with each swing, making it receive less damage from towers the longer it is on the path.
- Towers like the Pyromancer, Freezer, Electroshocker or Toxic Gunner can be used to reduce its Defense.

Trivia
[edit]- Previously, every new iteration of the Frost Hero would coincidentally have its health doubled, starting from Pre-MEGA. However, this version has since broken that streak.
- This Frost Hero in the Easy difficulty is also the weakest iteration of the Frost Hero.
- If the tradition continued, Frost Hero would currently have 160,000 health.
- The tip on the right side of its sword has a missing texture. This can also be seen on its Index icon.
- The Frost Hero is unaffected by enemy appearance modifiers, such as Talk Like a Pirate Day.
- The Frost Hero was planned to be given an ability where it would spawn mid-way into the map instead of at the entrance in v2.8.0 though this was cut.[1]
