Based on the Upis Beetle (Upis Ceramboides) of Alaska, this beetle is adapted to the extreme colds of Alaska and can survive in temperatures down to -60' C.

On-ball Ability: Learn to Fly

Upis spawns a frictionless, icy ramp. Looking down places it facing away from Upis; anywhere else places it facing toward him. The ramp itself will last 12s and can be broken by 2 headbutts or 1 ability. CD - 15s

Off-ball Ability: Snowdown

Upis shoots a snowball, slowing down beetles and dungballs by 4% for 5s (stackable). 5s after hitting a dungball, it freezes for .75s, canceling all momentum. Beetles holding the ball will remain holding it, they js cant go anywhere. The range for the snowball is very small, it would be hard to hit, but with 3 charges it would be balanced; CD - 20s each. Enemy beetles hit will just receive the slowdown for 5s. Ally beetles will gain 1 use of the Iceman passive.

Passive: Iceman

A headbutt from Upis results in a short 5% speed decrease and a slipperiness of the camera as well as frost around the edges of the screen (applies to opponents only)
