Question

I have a question about Encased in Ice (Blizzard modular set), and whether you can choose it for Toe to Toe. 1) Is ‘choosing’ Encased in Ice with Toe to Toe ‘attacking’ it such that it is treated as a minion and able to be chosen? 2) Do the Choose rules have any odd interactions here that might prevent it? 3) Also, if choosing is targeting the enemy, does that mean that Toe to Toe has a valid target even if no enemy can attack or be damaged?

Answer

The Encased in Ice attachment can be attacked as if it were a minion/enemy, meaning it can be chosen as the target of an attack or attack ability that targets an enemy. Since Toe to Toe is an attack that chooses a target enemy, Encased in Ice can be chosen and serve as “that enemy” for the duration of the ability.
