9/10 Awesome attack, Good HP and normal retreat. Weackness isn't really so bad (Magnezones OHKO's anyway) But Leafeon can control this too much.
 
10/10 because I'm running him in my deck. But seriously 90HP, 1 retreat, 2 good attacks, and weakness is something rarely played. I would liked it if it had 100HP.
 
This card is so good, evergything on it is just great. Easily one of the best cards in the LA set probably 8.5/10
 
Works well in some decks and can easily combo becuse of spread.

With Bronzong or Empoleon 8.5/10

For Looks 9/10

Overall playability 8/10 ( though a few will play it alot)
 
I like this. The spead is great. The spread is minimal, however it adds up over time. Desteny bond is only a good way to stall.
 
*Sigh* I wish Leafeon didn't absolutely pwn this...

Anyway, this and Leafeon are my 2 favourite Evolved Pokemon in Modified. Froslass is an amazing card IMHO. It can be played with sooooo many cards, including Bronzong, Yanmega, Ampharos, Giratina, Azelf Lv.X, and Spiritomb. It has decent HP, so it can take a hit. Destiny Bond is horribke IMO, any good opponent will just pass instead of KOing you, and you just wasted an Energy. But Icy Wind is very nice. 40 damage is bad, 10 to every Bench is pretty good, and Auto-Sleep is decent. Put them all together and... AMAZING! It spreads, and its partner spreads more after Lass #1 gets KO'd. And they only have a 50% chance of actually attacking you. AND you do some damage. On top of that, Froslass has great Weakness and Retreat Cost. All this leads to an amazing card.

10/10
 
Froslass combos with a lot of pokemon, especially Empoleon and Bronzong (I prefer the latter). With a decent stalling attack, and probably the best damage-spreading attack in modified, along with a good weakness and decent HP, this card definitely gets an A in my book...

9.5/10. If he had either had 100 HP or had a base damage of 50, he would be a 10...
 
9.5/10. My favorite card and my favorite Pokemon.
Also, when are Zone and Gross ever played?? Rarely, even more rarely than this will be.

Only thing that stopped 10/10 was Leafeon. Argggggg...
 
9.7/10(Leafeon, free rc, and 100HP would have made this soo much better)
 
Froslass is an amazing card for spreading damage and doing some decent damage to the Active Pokemon at the same time. It is best played with MD Empoleon for massive spread damage.

If you encounter Leafeon, just use Destiny Bond; and prays that your opponent has no Warp Point, nor won't retreat =P

It has some flaws, but still a very good card.

8.5/10
 
Froslass was another hyped about card back before LA was released, and this one may actually prove the hype to be true. 90 HP is average for a Stage 1, +20 Weakness to Metal is ok since the only real contender you'd be facing is Metagross, and he's likely a tech line at best, no Resistance, and 1 Energy for a Retreat Cost. Destiny Bond for 1 Psychic Energy (have to discard an attached Psychic energy to use) is a decent way to stall, though your opponent can just simply opt for sniping at the bench, so it is a bit situational. Icy Breath is the reason you want to play Froslass; 40 damage for 1 Water and 1 Colorless energy is good, it puts your opponent's active to sleep (hey, a 50/50 chance of not being able to attack next turn is better than nothing) and it hits all the Pokemon on the opponent's bench for 10 damage. This makes it a very good card to use in damage spreading decks, along with an Omastar tech or TM TS-2. Good partners for Froslass include Ampharos, Bronzong, Yanmega, and Empoleon, all whom also spread damage as well.

Modified - 8.5/10 (A great card, expect to see some at the upcoming Battle Roads)
Limited - 10/10 (Easy to play if you can evolve into hit, and the status+spead aspect make it quite powerful)
Unlimited - 1/10 (No real reason to run this here, there are better options)
 
A stage one with 90 HP, a retreat cost of one, and an uncommon weakness. Then throw in the ability to spread up there with your Empoleons for only 2 energy and sleep annoyance for some good measure, and this is one card to watch out for. It would be too godly if its retreat cost was any lower.

modified 9/10
