3. 🧊 The New Era of Cryo: The Secret of Preservation and Influence
· The story of Snezhnaya suggests new possibilities for the use of the Cryo element.
· Beyond simply freezing enemies, Cryo can be used to destroy or alter battlefield terrain, influencing enemy actions.

· Phenomena like animals frozen in ice in Dragonspine being revived by Pyro, or the preserved body of a queen in ice in a tale from the East, can be interpreted in connection with this 'preservation' ability.
· Furthermore, the 'Crown Gauge' briefly shown in Snezhnaya gameplay footage is similar to the one in Dragonspine, and a solution for it is expected.
