Special skill for Deirdre

I can't really decide which special will be better for her - Iceberg or Glacies?

The reasons for Glacies would be that she'll usually get doubled while baiting a mage, so she'll be ready with a charged Glacies which will let her kill almost anything combined with her already high attack power potentially combined with the buff negating effect.

The reasons for Iceberg would be lower cooldown and higher reliability, because she'll not always get doubled while baiting and 19 dmg from the special is enough to kill most of the targets.

I include stats for refference. I still need to farm SP for draw back and QR3 as well. And yeah I know that fury doesn't really synergize with QR, but it's fine for arena purposes.

Nice Deirdre! To make a long story short, Glacies will make the most out of her Resistance as it adds 80% of it to her damage output. But with a 4-action cooldown, it's less consistent than Iceberg is. Iceberg is more consistent with it's 3-action cooldown but it adds only 50% of her resistance.

In terms of damage output, Deirdre will be killing fools left and right regardless of Glacies or Iceberg.

In terms of consistency, Iceberg is the way to go.

Most of the time she'll only need the extra damage to pinchhit aganist a Red unit. Given that, I'd argue for Glacies if Red units with good resistance were more common...but in the current meta I think Iceberg will be sufficient.
