First appearance: S3E4, Crypto Monkeys - K-Boom v Ignacio Marchade · watch it on YouTube
The Frozen Lake is a Deathmatch arena: a sheet of ice on a bleak tundra, watched from a coliseum hanging in the sky. It first hosted K-Boom and Ignacio Marchade in Season 3. It returned in Season 4, when the Grandmaster welcomed Witch Hunter and Grickle to it. Even she admits the name is not very inspired.
Description
The lake sits in an open tundra, frozen solid enough to fight on. It is not quite empty. In Season 4, something could be seen moving deep beneath the ice. A few features break up the open ground: an archway over a small pond, a lone pillar and an elevated area.
Above it all hangs the coliseum where The Acolytes gather to watch. The Grandmaster sees the white landscape as a canvas, and she said so.
“I want you to make sure that this landscape is painted in red.” (the Grandmaster)
History
Crypto Monkeys
The Frozen Lake served as the arena for Crypto Monkeys in Season 3, where K-Boom faced Ignacio Marchade on the ice.
The Hunt
The lake returned in S4E6 — The Hunt — Witch Hunter v Grickle. The Grandmaster opened with a shrug at her own naming habits: “I welcome you. To the frozen lake. It’s not creatively named, you know, after a while we just got tired with things.” Then she told the two champions to paint it red. Witch Hunter and Grickle fought while something moved deep beneath the ice. Grickle walked away the winner, but the Shadow King killed him afterward.
