Power: 6 | Speed: 5 | Rarity: Rare | World Region: The Crevasse Territories
Origins: Icy Lynx is the predator of the Ice Rare tier – patient, territorial, and extremely good at positioning. The Crevasse Territories provide endless ambush positions, and Icy Lynx uses all of them. Its 6/5 stat line is deployed from positions of maximum advantage, and it rarely commits to a round it hasn't already won in the preparation phase.
Finishing Move: Cold Ambush: Drops from a crevasse edge onto a target without warning. The 6 Power lands before the target has processed the threat. The cold makes it worse.
Synergy & Rivalry: The natural ambush complement for Ice's more straightforward Rares. Fire's Blaze Rider is its direct counter – the one thing that moves fast enough to clear the Lynx's ambush window before the attack can land.
