What Not to Pair with Ice Cold

Bad augment synergies and pairings to avoid

Avoid

Avoid Ice Cold + Slow and Steady

Ice Cold enhances slow strength by 75, but Slow and Steady removes all attack speed bonuses and sets base attack speed to a static value. Champions who rely on attack speed to apply slows through basic attacks lose their primary delivery mechanism, making the enhanced slow effect significantly harder to utilize effectively.

Avoid Ice Cold + Back to Basics

Back to Basics seals your ultimate ability permanently, which removes a potential source of slows for many champions. Ice Cold requires slowing effects to function, and losing an entire ability slot reduces the number of ways you can apply slows, diminishing the augment's value considerably.

Avoid Ice Cold + Impassable

Glacial Augment from Impassable has been removed from the game, so this keystone option provides no slow synergy with Ice Cold. The Aftershock keystone offers defensive value but does not interact with slow mechanics, making this pairing fail to capitalize on Ice Cold's strength.

Avoid Ice Cold + Frost Wraith

Frost Wraith automatically casts a root ability, but roots do not count as slows. Ice Cold specifically enhances slowing effects by 75 movement speed reduction, and since Frost Wraith's effect immobilizes rather than slows, there is no mechanical interaction between these two augments.
