Question - Cryomancer O, Cryomancers, Where Art Thou?

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

He doesn't have that many punishable strings, and cancelling into hammer leaves you quite safe as well. Cryomancer is tons of fun and I play it from time to time just to swtich it up... but I feel so naked without my clone.

That's what turned me off at first too, for the longest time. But every time I would go back to Grandmaster, I just couldn't get used to the Clone being grounded. I spent way too much time in MK9 with Sub playing the put the clone wherever the hell I want game.
Cryomancer is just viscerally satisfying. it's such an anti-Sub variation with the focus on offense and malice and hammers and pain instead to defense that it just becomes addictive fun. Kind of like the idea of Inferno Scorpion since he's never had a base in projectile zoning before.
