I agree its a powerful ability but it requires to much set up to be useful.

I have to agree with this.
Also note that you can always use it to throw your own characters in. Stark have plenty of characters with higher strength than cost. Whilst you are kneeling an extra character in effect and not gaining an enemy character, you gain a few benefits still.
Firstly, you can do this after defenders are declared, making it a pseudo naval icon for all of your cards. This allows you to win challenges by 4, add deadly to a challenge, or simply ensure you win.
Secondly, you can throw in characters that don't have the right icons, or aren't even allowed to attack. House Tully Septon in a MIL challenge? Hodor into an INT challenge? No problem at all.
Hodor...smash!
As I said in a post above, yes. Even an intrigue challenge.
Edit: Just reread the wording on Frozen Outpost and I'm thinking not in this case. This one specifically calls for a standing card and the other does not call for a kneeling card.
If it is Winter, Bran Stark gains, "Challenges: During a challenge, kneel Bran Stark to choose and kneel a standing, non-participating, non-Army character with higher STR than printed cost. That character is now participating in the current challenge on your side."
I'll break it down for you. In order to trigger the ability all of these conditions must be met.
1) It must be Winter
2) You must activate this ability during a challenge (any challenge type is viable)
3) Bran stark must be standing
4) The target character must be standing
5) The target character must not be participating in the current challenge
6) The target character cannot have the Army trait.
7) The traget character's current STR must be higher than it's printed cost
Note that the target character can be controlled by any player, so it can be another of your characters you did not declare as an attacker/defender or it can be controlled by any of your opponents even if they are not the involved in the challenged.
