This is blank magic is better than blank magic number 20000000000 but I honestly do not care.
First please look at the base stats of the two magics. ( yes this is my main point)
As you can see Ice and snow do the same damage what the fuck who thought this was legal, same size, and higher speed. Destruction is not really used for pvp.
Now here are ices synergies they may look better but that speed is going to be hard to land a q unless you are a conjurer and you’re going to land your shots but snow has the same size so Is it a good trade speed for synergies in the eyes of snow yes. Also snow looks way better than ice at the time of this rant. I didn’t mention the vision effect because It is useless. That’s the end of this rant over 2 decent magics with a gimmick.
As a plasma and explosion main, I have learned that it is not just not useful, it is rather counterproductive. Just puts holes in the ground that you CANT EVEN T JUMP OUT OF because of some glitch in some cases
