Ice Golem

What it looks like

The Ice Golem is a Rare card that is unlocked from the Frozen Peak (Arena 8). It spawns a slow, single-target, building-targeting, melee, ground troop with high hitpoints and very low damage. When defeated, the Ice Golem explodes, dealing damage, while additionally slowing down anything nearby for 2 seconds. The Ice Golem takes the appearance of a large creature made out of snow with glowing team-colored eyes and ice shards on his head, with his hands being mostly made of ice, and his nose and rocks on his spine being in the form of coal. An Ice Golem card costs 2 Elixir to deploy.

Trivia

• The word "Golem" occurs once in the Bible in Psalm 139:16, which uses the word "golmi", that means "my light form", "raw" material, connoting the unfinished human being. A golem is an animated, anthropomorphic being in Jewish folklore, which is entirely created from inanimate matter, usually clay or mud. The most famous golem narrative involves Judah Loew ben Bezalel, the late 16th-century rabbi of Prague.
• The Ice Golem is 1 of 17 troops that inspired a troop in Clash of Clans, the others being Spear Goblins, Bomber, Bats, Skeleton Barrel, Minion Horde, Firecracker, Battle Ram, Zappies, Baby Dragon, Giant Skeleton, Ram Rider, Inferno Dragon, Miner, Royal Ghost, Ice Wizard, and Night Witch. Unlike his counterpart in Clash of Clans, he deals slight damage and merely slows down enemies upon death, rather than freezing them completely and he will slow enemies only after death instead of slowing them even when he attacks them. He has a slightly different appearance in Clash Royale, gaining coals, and is smaller-sized in comparison, like a Golemite. He walks with only his legs instead with also both of his hands like the Golem, which is unlike his Clash of Clans counterpart.
• The Ice Golem is 1 of 7 cards associated with ice, with the others being Ice Spirit, Giant Snowball, Freeze, Ice Wizard, Super Ice Golem, and Wizard Trio. In the Finnish language setting of the game, the Ice Golem's name translates to "Freezing Golem". A Trainer in the Training Camp is called Trainer Freeze and uses 4 ice-related cards in their deck, one of them being Ice Golem, and the others being Ice Spirit, Giant Snowball, and Freeze.
• Unlike the Golem, the Ice Golem attacks with both hands, whereas the Golem only punches with one hand. The Elixir Golem attacks with both hands, but the Elixir Golemites use one hand and the Elixir Blobs appear to bite.
