Ghost Rider could deem you unworthy and send you to tell just by looking at you.
The Sentry could destroy you with how powerful he is.
Thanos could snap you into oblivion since he had the infinity stone gauntlet.
Scarlet Witch could make you go crazy and kill yourself with just a thought.
Dr Strange could open a Orange circle portal and cut you in half.
Point is, iceman isn't Cold snap immune and the question has been answered 100's of times.
It may make sense to you and many others, they didn't add them in for a reason. Maybe they will at somepoint but their focus is on champs that need buffs.
KABAM MIIKE HAS RESPONDED TO MANY, MANY OTHER POSTS LIKE THIS, USE THE BAR FOR ONCE IN YOUR LIFE MAN. THERE ARE LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF OTHER POLLS LIKE: why isn't "x" immune to "y"???
In the movie (first Ironman) his suit freezes when he flies too high so he has to adapt it to be cold resistant.
I’m not well versed on the X-men but I’ll try my best from memory. I think icemans powers work by absorbing the moisture around him and lowering its temperature so if he did that to another iceman I guess it would work?
Iceman is a mutant with the superhuman ability to lower his external and internal body temperature, projecting intense coldness from his body. Like any normal human being's, the nerve centers for regulating Iceman's body temperature are found in the part of the brain called the hypothalamus. However, Iceman can mentally override his hypothalamus to allow his body temperature to be lowered by an unknown internal mechanism. This ability converts the latent thermal energies in and around his body into an unknown form of energy that is efficiently dissipated. A related mutation has rendered his body tissues unaffected by sub-zero temperatures. Iceman can consciously, immediately lower his body temperature from its normal 98.6 Fahrenheit to absolute zero (The point where all molecular motion stops.) and lower within the span of a few tenths of a second. Iceman's power to generate cold is so great, he was able to stop a massive nuclear explosion.
The logic could be that Iceman in MCOC isn't at absolute zero when fighting thus being able to be effected but frostbite/coldsnap.
This is on top of the fact that if your reason for making him coldsnap immune is either a physics-based reason or a comic book logic reason, both of those reasons are not air-tight. Things like wikis are not authoritative in general: I can edit that page. But if we presume the comics themselves are considered as authoritative a source as we can have, then the comics themselves do not state that Iceman is immune to Iceman's energy manipulation powers, and anyone who thinks Iceman just exposes things to cold to make them cold is not up to date on the current canon. Iceman is an Omega class energy manipulator. Nowhere has it been established that Iceman is immune to such energy manipulation effects, and any reasonable extrapolation of the comics using basic physics would support the notion that it is an open question as to whether Iceman would be immune to that kind of effect.
TL;DR: if you're balancing gameplay concerns and comic book fidelity properly, you don't buff a champion that is already one of the top performing. And separate from that, if you think making Iceman coldsnap immune is "more accurate" that has no basis in either the comics or in how physics generally works.
I thought you knew that
