Strategy

Freezing Trap is a powerful return effect A return to hand or return effect is a card effect whereby a minion, or more rarely a weapon or spell, is returned to the controlling player s hand. The target returns to its original card card that has the potential to set the opponent back quite a bit if it happens to return an expensive minion, but the hunter needs to be cautious when playing this card. If it returns an enemy minion with a strong Battlecry Battlecry is an ability where a particular effect activates when the card with the Battlecry is played directly from the hand. Although mostly limited to minions, some weapons also have Battlecries. Activation of Battlecries are effect, it might end up being advantageous to the other player!

Using Freezing Trap on a minion that costs more than 8 mana may make it impossible for the controlling player to resummon it, due its summoning cost exceeding players` maximum of 10 mana. Be that as it may, effects such as Alarm-o-Bot, Summoning Portal Summoning Portal Set: Classic Type: Minion Class: Warlock Rarity: Common Cost: 4 Attack: 0 Health: 4 Abilities: Modify cost Tags: Ongoing effect Your minions cost (2) less, but not less than (1).NOT LESS THAN 1! and Pint-Sized Summoner can counter such restrictions.

When playing multiple secrets A Secret is a spell card that is cast normally but has a delayed, hidden effect, which only takes place when a specific event occurs. When a Secret is played, a Secret icon appears on , bear in mind that all eligible secrets are triggered in the order in which they were played, and that secrets which require specific targets will not be triggered if their target has been removed by another secret. For instance, if a minion attacks a hunter who has played Explosive Trap Explosive Trap Set: Classic Type: Spell Class: Hunter Rarity: Common Cost: 2 Abilities: Deal damage, Secret Tags: Area of effect, Combat-related, Triggered effect Secret: When your hero is attacked, deal 2 damage to all enemies.It followed by Freezing Trap, the Explosive Trap will activate first, dealing 2 damage to all enemies. If the trigger minion survives, Freezing Trap will activate and return it to the controlling player`s hand; while if the trigger minion is destroyed, Freezing Trap will not activate, and will remain in place.

Note though that secrets which do not require specific targets will always activate once they have been triggered. If a hunter has played Freezing Trap before Explosive Trap, an attacking minion will be returned to its owner`s hand, but Explosive Trap will still then take effect after the triggering minion has been returned.

Freezing trap can also act to counteract other secrets or render the effects redundant. For instance, activating Misdirection Misdirection Set: Classic Type: Spell Class: Hunter Rarity: Rare Cost: 2 Abilities: Secret Tags: Combat-related, Triggered effect Secret: When a character attacks your hero, instead he attacks another random character.Sometimes it s as simple as putting followed by Freezing Trap will cause Misdirection`s effect to be wasted, as the minion will be returned to the hand before it has the chance to attack its new target. Similarly, by returning the minion to the hand, a Freezing Trap following an Explosive Trap will effectively undo the damage caused to that minion by Explosive Trap.

Overall, Freezing Trap has a particularly antagonistic relationship with other secrets, because of its ability to prevent them from triggering or to negate their effects. Bear this in mind when playing Freezing Trap, and anticipate the order of events if the secrets are activated.
