Thread title... Leaving out the disgusting avatar forms of Heroes, fusions and Kuriza (Freeza's Nekomajin son)
1. Is it the OG... Freeza?

2. King Cold

3. Frost

4. Non Canon Cooler

5. Non Canon Chilled

It maybe will shock some cuz Freeza is my favourite but in this case... Frost is my favourite... Love his color scheme... and I love the fact that he has some more color compared to Freeza but not as much as Cooler.
I still hioe they will do a homage to Cooler's final form ala LSSJ Kale and Lord Slug U6 Namekian with him to seperate him from Freeza and his golden form.

Please elaborate as I do not know what you mean by "pushing Vegeta's destruction"
He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke

Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.
Overall Final Form Frost and Cooler in both forms are the best ones for me. Final Form Frieza is awesome when Toyotaro draws him trough, I don't know why but I love how he does it.
Chilled is probably the worst of them, and King Cold doesn't really shine as a separate design.
English is not my first language. Please excuse my gramatical mistakes.
Nothing tops Final Form Freeza. That is the pinnacle of the simplistic beauty that Toriyama has with his character designs.

I still haven’t lived down going, “Who the heck is Tao Pai-pai?” that one time I was talking with Ei’ichiro Oda-kun. But the fact that there are still people reading the series after all this time… All I can say is; “thank you.” Really, that’s all.

And that you also have IMMENSELY skewed and comically backwards priorities in what you think is most important and needed to make a good Dragon Ball story.

I quite like the DB Heroes designs for Freeza's race.

Final form freeza,the beauty of this form,is that is simple compared to his other form yet is the most iconic & had a glorious intro with shooting the medic down,this along with imperfect/perfect cell are the best design of AT
"Don't take pleasure in destruction!" / "I will not let you destroy my world!"
A true hero goes beyond not the limits of power, but the limits that divide countries and people.

I agree with both of you. That transformation evoked the most horror for me out of all villain transformations in Dragon Ball history. The design of the first form made so much more sense when you saw what it hiding. Second form Freeza is when he finally became outright scary, instead of implied scary (and then the third form made him weird scary, briefly hindering the pace of the story).
Still have a lot of love for Shredder-Cooler and Freeza's final form. Golden Freeza turned out surprisingly great, as well.
