Ice Climbers (SSBM)

Template:Character Ice Climbers are characters in SSBM.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Advanced players can do massive damage
• High-damage grab combos, including ones that can put enemies from 0% to death
• Because the Ice Climbers are played by two sprites, this allows you to "desync" the Ice Climbers and perform attacks individually with each of them acting as a single character.
• A variety of edgeguarding options
• Strong ground game
• Very long wave-dash
• Opponents have trouble grabbing an Ice Climber because the other Climber can interrupt the thrower
• Fast and strong aerials

Cons

• Slow-running; reliant on wave-dashing for speed
• Nana can be killed at low %s when ICs are seperated
• Nana can be unresponsive at times
• Popo loses many of his advantages when Nana dies, such as his ability to combo and kill as effectively
• Ice Climbers are awkward when forced to fight in the air
• Easily disrupted by projectiles
• Single Ice Climbers are floaty and vulnerable to air combos and juggling
• Low ranged
