Strategy

Kold War Sub-Zero (now called Kold Sub-Zero) is a resilient tank but also possesses some serious offense. Frostbite from his passive is applied before a SP, allowing that SP to receive huge critical damage boost if it crits. His passive increases power generation and decrease opponent power generation for each Kold teammate with Sub-Zero. And frostbite can help reduce the threat from dangerous SP specialist, making it harder for them to gain power.

Interactions

Please note that battles are highly situational: this section only mentions cards that have mechanics that, for any reason, are particularly effective with/against, or particularly ineffective against Sub-Zero. Having a card that "counters" Sub-Zero does not mean it is always a good choice.

Good With

• Kold War characters.
• Characters with Frostbite, such as Sub-Zero/MK11 and Triborg/Sub-Zero (LK-520).
• Kung Jin/Prime & Bo' Rai Cho/Dragon Breath: Sub-Zero receives more critical hit chance from these characters.
• Kung Lao/Hat Trick and Triborg/Cyrax(LK-4D4): Sub-Zero gains more critical damage from these characters.

Good Against

• Day of the Dead characters.
• Characters that rely on special attacks: His power gen decrease and frostbite make it harder for them to gain power.

Countered By

• Ronin characters.
• Characters with starting power: Their starting power are unaffected by his passive.
• Characters with immunity to critical damage, such as Kenshi/Elder God.
• Characters with special attack evasion such as Jade/Assassin.
