In the TCG.

Ice Lance is a Frost mage talent. It deals light damage to a target, and its damage is tripled against frozen targets.

When cast, Ice Lance also causes all stored Icicles from Spell frost iceshard [Mastery: Icicles] to begin launching at the target. Taking Ability mage glacialspike [Glacial Spike] removes this effect.
