The problem with FROZEN status

That is correct and intended behavior. While a given troop is Frozen:

  1. Any Extra Turn due to a 4+ match of any of the troop’s colors will be suppressed, regardless of where the mana goes;
  2. Any explicit Extra Turn provided by that troop’s spell (e.g., Goblins) will be suppressed; and
  3. If the Frozen troop is the lead troop then any Extra Turn due to a 4+ Skull match will be suppressed.

Note that indirect Extra Turns due to the troop’s spell manipulating the board will not be suppressed unless the colors match the troop’s (or another troop with those colors is Frozen). Thus a Frozen Goblin Shaman will not get an Extra Turn from its explicit spell effect, but if it happens to make a 4+ Green match then this may still result in an Extra Turn.
