Summary

The Freeze Trap was introduced during the 2016 winter theme update and was the second of three "Clash-mas" gifts, the first gift was the Santa's Surprise and the third was the Ice Wizard . It was available from UTC 10:00 27/12/16 through UTC 10:00 6/1/17.
When triggered, the trap freezes all ground and air troops in a certain radius, immobilizing them for a short duration.

Appearance

The Frost Trap appears similarly to a level 1-2 Air Bomb , except that the hinges are much larger, has snow and the balloons and barrel are replaced with a cubic bottle with light blue liquid covered with a cork. When being activated, the trapdoor first opens up, and the spell is sprung upwards by a small Spring Trap underneath.

Strategies

Heroes can use their abilities while under the effects of the Freeze Trap. Any troops spawned by said Heroes will not be frozen. Unarmed
The Grand Warden 's Eternal Tome ability will not prevent troops from being frozen.

Offensive Strategies

Heroes can use their abilities while under the effects of the Freeze Trap. Any troops spawned by said Heroes will not be frozen. Unarmed
The Grand Warden 's Eternal Tome ability will not prevent troops from being frozen.

Defensive Strategies

The Freeze Trap can be used similarly to other traps in the game.
Due to its special nature, it is good to place the Freeze Trap at a spot where a large amount of defensive buildings can fire at, dealing great damage to the frozen troops.
Place the Freeze Trap deep in the base so it is harder for opponents to purposefully trigger.

Trivia

It is the third temporary trap to be added to the game.
Like any other temporary content, the Freeze Trap cannot be upgraded.

Its info screen says, "spell duration" and "damage type", although it is not a spell and does not deal damage.
The Freeze Trap is the one of two traps that can target both ground and air troops simultaneously, the Tornado Trap being the other. Flask
The Freeze Trap's duration does not scale according to the Town Hall level, unlike many other temporary contents.
The Freeze Trap has a trap door similar to the Air Bomb and Seeking Air Mine , and especially the Shrink Trap , which was a temporary trap of the 2017 Clashiversary events.
The Freeze Trap is included in some Single Player Campaign maps.
The Freeze Trap can be found at 2021 at 9th Clashivesary challenge along with Shrink Trap .
