I've watched enough episodes of A Certain Scientific Railgun to know what kind of insane shit electric abilities can be used for. Ice doesn't even compare.

Ice. Always cool.

Electrical powers, given human error, dramatically increase the odds of accidentally frying a laptop or phone.

Definitely electricity. Some applications of electricity powers are damn OP.

Ice. I'm picturing Elsa-like powers.

She built a castle in seconds. Can basically materialize any solid structure from thin air. Can use ice as a concussive force. I can't imagine how many uses there would be for those abilities

Electricity could be handy for sabotaging electronics and maybe charging them, but ice means reenacting Let It Go, so ice takes it.

I voted Electricity, which has always been my preference... but, if I had all of Elsa's OP shit, Ice would be pretty tempting.

It really depends on how strong powers you get. If your power is simply to "create electricity" it is pretty dang shitty since you can't really control where it goes. You would probably kill someone on accident within a week, or at the very least fuck up all your electronics "trying to power them" or some shit.

Ice is better because it just goes where you tell and stays there. Also way less lethal and has more practical applications that don't also have life threatening accidents that could happen.

If we are talking about MAX level power, I would still take ice since that means you could technically also freeze time.

Tldr: electricity is too random to be good

He's only really limited by wanting to retain his humanity. He has the potential to be physical God, if he decided to do his physics homework and violate entropy in very specific ways.

As for what he's actually done, he can freeze the explosion of a nuke, restored his flesh body from moisture a few times, and can create sentient ice-based life.

Plus ice is a shitty conductor. Id just freeze electricity guy in an ice mountain and be about my day.

And i could build giant ice bridges and stairs and shit to jump in the lake off of. Ice just seems way cooler.

electricity because that's basically a whole fundamental force of nature at your fingertips. ice is just a solid state of one particular molecule. yawn

Basically Iceman's too stupid/uncreative to realize his full potential, but he controls moisture in the air, molecules of water and can use them in any way he wants. He can become immortal by using the ice to heal himself from any wound, but also just survive as vapor. He can do stuff like freeze the blood in anyone's body to kill them, or grow in size to ridiculous levels. With enough training and focus he can control all the water on Earth and just use that as a limitless resource. He can even create ice golems and control them. So with that alone he could create an army of giant ice monsters or servants.

I think the problem with electrical powers is that there are a lot of applications, but most characters with the power only have 1 or 2 abilities. Imagine if you had

  • Lightning Teleportation
  • Electrical Levitation
  • Electrical Enhanced Condition (enhanced strength and reflexes)
  • Electrokinetic Invisibility
  • Electrical Telepathy
  • Electrical Healing
That would be so overpowered lol.

I don't know... I feel like "freeze time" being considered an ice power is kind of cheating lol.

Ice powers would probably have more practical uses like chilling drinks, and cooling things off, but then again this was one of my favorite characters as a child

I love the way that grate melts from above.

This is a difficult choice.

How.

You're getting Ice powers (which could be finite, it's not like you can create all the amount of ice you want at any time, as shown in an early issue of X-Men when Bobby says he needs time to "recharge" and stuff), you're not getting the ability to spawn clones of yourself so you can hit every single remote community in Africa and shit.

Ice, seems easier to control and use without major side effects. Well maybe mr. freeze problems, but should probably be better than electrifying everything.

Always preferred electric/lightning in games and such, but I can't deny that ice has more practical non-combat applications while electricity would be harder to bend into something that *wouldn't* kill or damage things unless I know exactly what I'm doing, ice is almost fail-proof by comparison.
