Can these units be attacked while slowed/frozen?
Single unit targeting or area of attack?

This would give spell casters the chance to get away if they are entrenched in melee combat. It would also give the possibility to slow down retreating units and cut them down with your cavalry.

That dosent sound like a too bad idea
