"true black" is just actual black - #000000 in hex. That means 00 red, 00 green, 00 blue. There are plenty of other things that are almost black - for example, the HTML standard night (#0c090a) is almost indistinguishable from black, but is a tiny bit blue.

True black is shown by the absence of colour. In this case, it will remove Frost's particle effect totally because they have no outline, only colour, and so will display nothing.

The effect of a very slight colour will technically be infinitely less pronounced - you'll still see the particles, they will just be hard to distinguish. But it's a lot better than fucking shiny white or gold particles.
