FROST

When Frost steps onto the battlefield, enemies experience a chill. Frost’s attacks control crowds, protect objectives, and increase survivability. Wield the biting cold.

Frost is a defense and crowd-control frame built around Snow Globe, a dome that blocks incoming fire and shields objectives, plus Avalanche for wide-area freezing, armor strip, and overguard via the Icy Avalanche augment. He's the pick for Defense, Excavation, and Mobile Defense runs where you need to lock down a zone and keep an objective alive rather than clear the whole tile.
