I think this is one of the most underrated cards in the game.
It's currently rated 5 stars ;P

I think it's starting to get plenty of attention. Personally, I love using it to blank Maesters and make their chains fall off. And not that Brotherhood sees all that much action nowadays, but it holds Beric at bay pretty well too.

It's one of stark's best defenses against stealth in general, which they have very little otherwise

What means "fall off"? They don´t get discarded or do they?

They get discarded since the chain attachments read "maester character only" when the character is no longer a maester the chains are not on a legal target and will be discarded from the play.

This is why the first chain I always attach is Apprentice Collar (GotC), so I am getting the Maester trait from two places, making it much harder to knock them all off. Between this, Meera Reed (TftH) and Nightmares (LoW), it is very easy to blank cards including their traits.

This card with Meere Reed = Total defense

Catelyn Stark (Core) and Frozen Outpost (LoW) can make for an excellent defense as well.
What happen if i declare a challenge with a character, who does not kneel to attack, and my opponent kneels Frozen Moat to blank him? Does he kneel or keep standing?

He would remain standing for that challenge.

Thanks mate, you are a precious support ;)

My opponent was running these in a melee game last night. Absolutely maddening, since every time I took a poke at him, there goes all my Dragon synergy. I even cost myself Bodyguard and Copper Link, since herp derp, there go the Lady and Maester traits.
If you frozen moat the shadow enchantress on a mil challenge...what would occur?
Since she has already been declared as an attacker, or defender, she'll remain participating in the challenge. And all Asshai characters will have lower strength.

The icon is only a requirement to be declared as a participating character. Once the character is already participating, it doesn't matter what icons it has.

What happens if he blanks a unkillable dragone then plays no quarter... is the dragon still blanked during the response phase?

The dragon is blank during the challenge.  Responses to winning the challenge is still within that same challenge window, so yes - they are still blank during the response step.  

What exactly gets blanked with this card ? Does the character lose Crests, Traits or Keywords ?

All the ink in the text box is blanked. That includes traits and keywords. It does not include crests or challenge icons; they are not considered part of the text box.
