I'm trying to put together an X-Men deck. Iceman has always been my favorite, and I'm wanting to make him right.
My first thought was to go Defense.(Representing Ice shields,armor)
Power: The first time you play a defense card draw a card.
The second time you play a defense card +1 Power.
Then his special would be a defense card like Blue Beetles.
I think I would be happy with this, but I'm not sold yet. I feel like I would like to go a more unique route, almost like Captain Cold, and Freeze my opponent. That's what Iceman is known for Freezing and slowing down opponents. So I'm thinking of option like Captain Cold: paying a certain cost to make a target opponent flip over his hero for a turn. Or somehow maybe slowing the opponent down, like paying a cost to make them discard cards, or even freeze the main deck so you opponent can't restock the row his next turn.
Any thoughts??

Let's take some idea from the big daddy of deck building game: Dominion. There's a card "Ambassador" which force your opponent to put a "victory" card back on top of their deck, thus slowing down the opponent.
What if Iceman would for your opponent to put a card with power of 2 back on top of their deck?
So like a weaker Harley Quinn, but from your hand instead of discard? It seems solid, although I don't like attacks appearing other than on villains.
