It's definitely a relieving feeling when you see something that fits into the the right kogs instead of being a surprise. That is for sure a feeling I would like to experience more than the hype-filled excitement I encounter 95% of the times.

Well, if you consider where Frost Coating comes from, you may change your mind: http://dota2.gamepedia.com/Ogre_Camp#Abilities. Grounding is also a newer type of CC, so I myself am experimenting with how strong it may be of a mechanic. I don't mind toning him down a little more if he is too strong, but it seems like he is sitting in a pocket where he is appropriately "a viable champion," yes?
