During a fight against Black panther Civil War, i stack some attack against BPCW and I know that when you get hit you get x times a specific amount of damages but shouldn't iceman ice armor protect him from that?
Thanks

    Ice armor does not protect from energy damage, which is what BPCW's reflective armor damage is dealt as.

    I don't see in the description of ice armor the energy mention you're talking about.
    It says from one source though.
    But the physical hit did not break ice armor then the energy hit should have broken it. No?

    From Iceman's champion spotlight:
    "If Iceman would lose more than 5% of his Max Health from a single source, his Ice Armor protects him from the blow, reducing the health loss to 5%, then it shatters."
    Note how it says "Ice Armor protects him from the blow". Not explicitly stated, but it's implied that Iceman has to get hit to trigger Ice Armor. Since BPCW's reflective armor deals energy damage, not physical (as it would with a normal attack) Iceman is vulnerable to Reflective Armor's damage.

    It's also possible that I'm wrong and this is just a glitch.

    BP CW charges bypass armor, since they are direct damage. Consider it like if it was NC deep wound ability. Is like bleed damage, but all at once

    It's kinda a passive damage that is dealt. Like even if you have 3* iceman and have Ice armor and then there is a 5* iceman does frostbite damage passive effect it'll take more than 5% say if you used a 3* iceman and you'll keep your ice armor. Or if you go against a red hulk and he has 10 charges does sp3 the damage from the attack will be capped at 5% lose ice armor but the 10charges damage will do the regular damage it would have.
