Go with blade for the regen. Icey is good enough unduped

Blade

Why waste it on Blade when you can awaken him in the next arena?

Neither. Both are tanks without being duped. Save the gem for someone who benefits massively from being awakened ie Switch or Voodoo

Depends. Blade regen is great. But Iceman starts off fight with coldsnap for first 15 seconds of fight which stops opponent from evading while under coldsnap. Very nice against Nightcrawler, Spidey, and other evade champs.

Ice man would be a better choice any day as he good in offense as well defence. Blade only offense.

Hey f24699, I've moved this discussion over to the Strategy and Tips section of the Forum.

Neither tbh - I agree in saving the generic for someone who benefits more from it. If you MUST use it, Blade over Iceman, but it would be wiser to save it for Voodoo or SW.

@Darkness275 he asked about icey and blade not voodoo or sw.

I get that, if you read what I said - I said that if he MUST use it, Blade over Iceman. But I added that it would be more beneficial to save the awakening gem for someone like Voodoo or SW since they honestly benefit from being awakened more than either Iceman or Blade does.

Yes the Blade regen is a gamechanger, but Blade is still a demi-god tier without it. Iceman's coldsnap at the start of a fight is amazing, but he's still demi-god without it. So if he has a single awakening gem, he might want to save it. In contrast to Blade and Iceman only improving slightly, Voodoo and SW for example, improve TREMENDOUSLY from being awakened.

Iceman has a better awakened ability, you start with coldsnap and regenerate ice armor faster.

Is that even a question bro!
Go for blade
Iceman is mainly for defense when duped
Thanks
