The '''Ice Climbers''' ({{ja|アイスクライマー|Aisu Kuraimā}}, ''Ice Climber'') are playable characters in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. They were confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Although they are a team, the Ice Climbers are collectively classified as fighter #15. | |||
The Ice Climbers are once again voiced by Sanae Kobayashi, with her portrayal from ''Brawl'' being repurposed for ''Ultimate''. | |||

== | ==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''== | ||
Previously, the Ice Climbers were known for having some of the most infamously powerful damage racking capabilities thanks to their ability to [[wobbling|wobble]] in ''Melee'' and infinite [[chain grab]] in ''Brawl'', and additionally achieve a KO from them. Possibly as a result of this, in the transition from ''Brawl'' to ''Ultimate'', the Ice Climbers were drastically nerfed. Their grab game was significantly impacted the most; the partner climber can no longer grab or act when the leader is grabbed or throwing someone (except when in the air), the leader's grabs have noticably more startup and ending lag, and their infamous chain grabs were completely removed. | |||
Outside of this, the Ice Climbers have received a mixed bag. On the nerf side, the base damage output on many of their moves has decreased and many of their attacks connect less reliably when they are together due to reduced [[hitlag]]. The partner climber also no longer performs Blizzard behind the leader when used on the ground and Blizzard itself is less effective as a spacing tool due to it being almost useless when used at max range as well as it having increased ending lag. The partner climber is also launched much easier than the leader due to taking increased damage and knockback from attacks, and the [[AI]]'s intelligence has been reduced leading to more likely self-destructs, making it harder for each of them to stay together. Finally, due to changes in [[Belay]]'s hitboxes, the move can gain significantly less height if the hitbox is outprioritized, and its overall size is smaller, making it harder to connect against grounded opponents. | |||
On the buff side of things, as with almost every other returning veteran, their mobility has been considerably increased and the partner climber is now faster than the leader, making it harder to separate them. Some of their moves, including forward smash, down smash, and forward aerial have higher damage and KO power, and the Ice Climbers have superior combo potential due to the removal of [[hitstun canceling]] and the weakening of [[SDI]]. This is further complimented by the fact that [[desynching]] remains a very powerful tool that gives the Ice Climbers highly effective combos. Thanks to improved [[freezing]] properties, the Ice Climbers can freeze opponents easier and longer, which can lead to high damage, KOs while edgeguarding, shield pressure, and follow-ups if performed correctly. | |||
Nevertheless, the Ice Climbers are significantly less effective than in ''Brawl'', although to what extent is unknown, especially since they are difficult to play at a high level and it is unknown how far their desync combos can be developed and be applied into competitive matches. Despite this, {{Sm|Big D}} has achieved respectable tournament results so far using the Ice Climbers. | |||
The | ===Aesthetics=== | ||
*{{change|The Ice Climbers gain additional detail due to the game's graphical improvements. The duo now wear coats with detailed furry lining, and their boots and hammers are covered in powdered snow. They have slightly smaller heads, and the proportions of their facial features and bodies have also been adjusted.}} | |||
*{{change|The Ice Climbers has gained two additional [[Alternate costume (SSBU)#Ice Climbers|alternate costume]]s, increasing their total to eight.}} | |||
*{{change|Both Ice Climbers always face the screen regardless which direction either of them turn, making both their animations mirrored. <!--Don't add that the Ice Climbers are the only characters with a mirrored animation who constantly held weapons, because one of the 2 unknown DLC fighters might also be a character who both has a mirrored animation and holds a weapon.--> }} | |||
*{{change|Like other fighters, the Ice Climbers are more expressive than before, they now scowl when shielding and charging their down smash, and the partner climber will also panic when the leader is grabbed.}} | |||
**{{change|In addition, the partner climber will have worried expression and wince periodically when the main climber gets frozen, dizzy, or get attacked.}} | |||
*{{change|Either Ice Climber now hangs onto the ledge with one hand instead of two.}} | |||
*{{change|[[Sidestep]] animation has been altered, showing them resting their hammers on their shoulder while looking back.}} | |||
*{{change|The Ice Climbers have a new [[idle pose]] of them turning to look behind themselves. It replaces the animation of them dropping their hammers then lifting them back up.}} | |||
*{{change|The Ice Climbers only jump once when using up [[taunt]] as opposed to three times.}} | |||
*{{change|Their [[victory theme]] has been shortened to only contain the second half.}} | |||
*{{change|In the end of a solo match, only the leading Ice Climber will be shown inside the losing pane on the [[results screen]]. Both Ice Climbers are still shown if the match ends in a No Contest.}} | |||
*{{bugfix|Nana's crowd chant is no longer the back sound of the menu if she is currently the leader.}} | |||
===Attributes=== | |||
*{{buff|Like all characters, both of the Ice Climbers' [[jumpsquat]] animations now take three frames to complete (down from 4).}} | |||
*{{buff|The partner climber is now generally faster than the leader. This helps them keep up if the two are separated.}} | |||
*{{nerf|If either Ice Climber lands a hit, the other one now takes a small amount of hitlag, regardless of whether their attack connects or not.}} | |||
**{{nerf|This, however, makes desyncing slightly more difficult.}} | |||
*{{nerf|The partner climber now takes 1.05x times the damage and knockback from attacks, making them slightly easier to separate and KO. This additional knockback also affects the leader if both climbers are hit with an attack which deals vertical knockback, significantly hindering the Climbers' vertical endurance when they are together.}} | |||
*{{buff|The Ice Climbers walk faster (0.96 → 1.008 (leader), 1.1088 (partner)).}} | |||
*{{buff|The Ice Climbers [[dash]] faster (1.388 → 1.53 (leader), 1.683 (partner)). Their initial dash is also faster (1.4 → 1.68).}} | |||
*{{buff|The Ice Climbers' [[air speed]] is faster (0.7708 → 0.83 (leader), 0.8715 (partner)).}} | |||
*{{change|The Ice Climbers' [[falling speed]] is faster (1.2 → 1.3).}} | |||
*{{change|The Ice Climbers' [[gravity]] is slightly higher (0.077 → 0.082), although it is lower relative to the cast.}} | |||
*{{buff|As with all returning veterans, the Ice Climbers have much higher [[traction]] (0.035 → 0.077) although it is still the second lowest in the game.}} | |||
*{{buff|The partner climber has higher air acceleration (0.09 → 0.0945).}} | |||
*{{nerf|The removal of [[chain grabbing]] hinders the Ice Climbers more than any other character, as it harshly reduces their damage racking and KO abilities and zero-to-death potential. They also greatly suffer from the ability to [[tech]] [[footstool]]s as it removes their guaranteed [[lock]] setups from grabs.}} | |||
*{{nerf|The partner climber's [[AI]] is worse as they have more difficulty recovering and making it back to the leader which can lead to them [[self destruct]]ing.}} | |||
*{{buff|The duration enemies are [[frozen]] from the Ice Climbers' ice attacks are much longer, allowing for easier unavoidable followups at high percentages. At very high percentages, it can even freeze them long enough to be unable to recover from near the ledge.}} | |||
*{{buff|Ice Climbers arguably benefit the most from the reintroduction of [[wavedash]]ing because of their very low traction, significantly increasing their approach and mobility, as well as giving them more mixups with grabbing and attacking opponents.}} | |||
*{{change|The partner climber's attacks now affect the duo's [[stale]]ness queue; in previous games, they would use the queue but could not alter it. This generally means that the duo's attacks will both stale and refresh twice as quickly.}} | |||
===Ground attacks=== | |||
*[[Neutral attack]]: | |||
**{{buff|Neutral attack can now [[lock]] opponents due to its altered angle (60° → 361°/180°) and the partner's second hit deals more damage (2% → 2.6%).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Neutral attack does less damage (3% → 2% (leader hit 1), 4% → 3.5% (leader hit 2), 2% → 1.5% (partner hit 1), 11% → 9.6% (total)).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Second hit of neutral attack has more ending lag (frame 20 → 30) and both hits have a shorter duration (frames 4-7 (hit 1), 4-6 (hit 2) → 4-5 (both)).}} | |||
*[[Forward tilt]]: | |||
**{{nerf|The partner's forward tilt deals less damage (7% (non angled), 9% (angled) → 6.75%).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Forward tilt has a shorter duration (frames 9-12 → 9-10).}} | |||
*[[Up tilt]]: | |||
**{{buff|The final hit of up tilt has a longer duration (frame 23 → 24-27) and has more combo potential due to the removal of [[hitstun canceling]]. The partner's final hit also deals more knockback (40 (base), 100 (scaling) → 38/118).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Up tilt deals less damage (1% (loop hits) → 0.8% (leader loop hits), 0.6% (partner loop hits), 17% → 15.4% (total)), the loop hits have increased knockback (10 (base), 20 (scaling) → (65/60/20)/10) and the final hit has more startup lag (frame 23 → 24).}} | |||
*[[Down tilt]]: | |||
**{{change|The partner's down tilt now deals consistent damage (4%/5% → 4.5%) making it deal more damage at close range but makes it deal less damage at the tip of the hammer.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Down tilt connects less reliably at higher percents when both climbers are present.}} | |||
*[[Dash attack]]: | |||
**{{buff|The partner's dash attack deals more damage (4% → 4.5%) and has increased knockback scaling (40 → 60). Dash attack also has a longer duration (frames 11-12 → 11-14).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Dash attack causes less [[hitlag]] making it connect far less reliably at higher percents when both climbers are present.}} | |||
*[[Forward smash]]: | |||
**{{buff|Forward smash has less startup lag with a longer duration (frames 12-13 → 11-13). It also has less ending lag (frame 49 → 47) and has higher base knockback (30 → 50). The partner's forward smash also has higher knockback scaling (118 → 126).}} | |||
**{{nerf|It has an altered animation where the Ice Climbers slam their hammers in a diagonal angle, hindering its range. It also no longer has a sweetspot which deals more damage (13% → 12% (leader), 10% → 9% (partner), 23% → 21% (both)).}} | |||
*[[Up smash]] | |||
**{{buff|Up smash has less startup lag (frame 13 → 12) and the partner's up smash has higher knockback scaling (113 → 126).}} | |||
**{{nerf|The partner's up smash deals less damage (9% → 8.2%) and it has more ending lag (frame 48 → 50).}} | |||
*[[Down smash]]: | |||
**{{change|Down smash is now a sweep that hits one side. The partner will use the same attack facing the other way.}} | |||
**{{buff|Down smash covers more horizontal ground when together and it deals more damage (12%/10% → 13% (leader), 9%/8% → 9.7% (partner)). It also has less ending lag (frame 44 → 41) and deals more knockback than the previous sweetspots (30 (base), 105 (leader scaling)/113 (partner scaling) → 45/(100/120)).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Down smash only hits on one side when solo. It is also drastically harder to connect with both climbers and even if it does, its maximum damage output is much lower as it no longer has two hits (42% → 22.7% (both)).}} | |||
== | ===Aerial attacks=== | ||
The Ice Climbers | *{{buff|All aerials have less landing lag (15 frames → 7 (neutral/back), 20 → 10 (forward), 30 → 14 (up), 42 → 20 (down).}} | ||
*{{nerf|The Ice Climbers can no longer use two back or up aerials in a short hop due to their faster falling speed as well as the latter having increased ending lag.}} | |||
*[[Neutral aerial]]: | |||
**{{buff|The partner's neutral aerial deals more damage (5% → 5.25%).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Neutral aerial connects less reliably when both climbers are present especially at higher percents.}} | |||
**{{nerf|The partner's neutral aerial also has less knockback scaling (128 → 120) hindering its KO potential despite its higher damage.}} | |||
*[[Forward aerial]]: | |||
**{{buff|The partner's sourspot forward aerial deals more damage (7% → 9%).}} | |||
**{{buff|The partner's forward aerial has increased knockback scaling (100 → 114) improving its KO potential when both climbers are present.}} | |||
**{{buff|The removal of [[meteor canceling]] improves the partner's sweetspot's reliability.}} | |||
*[[Back aerial]]: | |||
**{{nerf|Back aerial deals less damage (11% → 10% (leader), 8% → 7.5% (partner), 19% → 17.5% (both)) although its knockback scaling was compensated (107 (leader), 128 (partner) → 115/138) and connects less reliably when both climbers are present especially at higher percents.}} | |||
*[[Up aerial]]: | |||
**{{buff|The Ice Climbers have a new [[up aerial]]: an upwards hammer swing in a horizontal arc. Compared to the old up aerial, it provides much more horizontal range and hits in front of them, covering them more efficiently than before. It also has higher knockback scaling (120 (leader), 142 (partner) → 129/154.80003) improving its KO potential despite its lower damage.}} | |||
**{{nerf|New up aerial deals less damage (10%/9% → 9% (leader), 7%/6% → 5.75% (partner)), has more startup lag, a shorter duration (frames 6-23 → 7-11) and more ending lag (frame 30 → 36) compared to the previous one. It also has less vertical range making it much harder to connect against grounded opponents.}} | |||
*[[Down aerial]]: | |||
**{{buff|The partner's down aerial deals more damage (5% → 6%). Down aerial also [[auto-cancel]]s earlier (frame 58 → 54).}} | |||
**{{change|The Ice Climbers now bounce up before performing down aerial similar to {{SSBU|Sheik}}'s down aerial.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Down aerial has more startup lag with a shorter duration (frames 9-51 → 12-51).}} | |||
The | ===Throws/other attacks=== | ||
*{{nerf|[[Grab]]s have more startup (frame 6 → 8 (standing), frame 8 → 10 (dash/pivot)) and ending lag (frame 30 → 40 (standing), frame 40 → 48 (dash), frame 40 → 41 (pivot)).}} | |||
*{{nerf|The partner climber cannot act while the leader is held by an opponent's [[grab]] while on the ground, and enters a panicking animation instead (although this can be avoided with desyncs).}} | |||
*{{nerf|The partner climber can no longer grab, and will taunt during the leader's throw while on the ground. This removes their [[chain grabs]] and [[lock]]s the Ice Climbers were infamous for in previous titles.}} | |||
*{{buff|[[Up throw]] deals more damage (2% (hit), 4% (throw), 6% (total) → 3%/5%/8%) and the knockback scaling on the throw was not fully compensated (28 → 26).}} | |||
*{{change|[[Down throw]] now has the leader grab the opponent with both hands, lift them up in the air, and slam them on the ground.}} | |||
**{{buff|The changes to [[hitstun canceling]] improve down throw's combo potential beyond lower percents with a solo climber.}} | |||
**{{nerf|The removal of chain grabbing hinders down throw's damage racking potential at lower percents even with a solo climber. Down throw also has increased knockback scaling (100 → 116) hindering its combo potential.}} | |||
*{{buff|The leader's front and back [[floor attack]]s deals more damage (6% → 7%).}} | |||
*{{nerf|The partner's floor attacks deals less damage (6% → 5.2% (front & back), 5% → 3.5% (trip)).}} | |||
*{{change|Ledge attack is now a horizontal swing similar to their old over 100% ledge attack. It deals consistent damage compared to the previous two ledge attacks but the partner's ledge attack is now weaker (8% (hammer), 6% (body) → 8% (leader), 6% (partner).}} | |||
**{{nerf|New ledge attack deals less damage compared to their old over 100% ledge attack (10% (hammer), 8% (body) → 8% (leader), 6% (body)) and the Ice climbers do not hunch over when performing it making them easier to hit.}} | |||
===Special Moves=== | |||
*[[Ice Shot]]: | |||
**{{buff|Ice Shot deals more damage (1%-3% → 2-2%-3.5%) and it has regained a hammer hitbox. It also has less ending lag (frame 60 → 56).}} | |||
**{{buff|Ice Shot can function as a projectile blocker since the sliding ice pieces won't get destroyed by any projectiles, and will cancel them out no matter how powerful they are.}} | |||
**{{change|Ice Shot makes a different sound effect.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Ice Shot has more startup lag (frame 17 → 18).}} | |||
{{ | **{{nerf|Reflected ice chunks can now damage the Ice Climbers.}} | ||
*[[Squall Hammer]]: | |||
**{{buff|Solo Squall Hammer now ends with a stronger hit that deals mild diagonal damage and knockback. The move also has less startup lag (frame 12 → 10).}} | |||
**{{buff|[[Desynching|Desynced]] Squall Hammer can be used to trap opponents between both Ice Climbers.}} | |||
**{{change|Squall Hammer now makes a twinkling sound effect when used.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Squall Hammer grants much less vertical distance with mashing and it has more ending lag with both climbers (frame 70 → 78).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Squall Hammer doesn't sweetspot the ledge anymore.}} | |||
*[[Belay]]: | |||
**{{buff|Belay covers slightly more distance with a solo climber and the solo climber has more control while using it.}} | |||
**{{change|When both climbers are present, the solo climber covers more vertical distance but less horizontal.}} | |||
**{{change|Belay now uses a unique sound effect rather than regular jump sound from ''Ice Climber''.}} | |||
**{{nerf|The partner's hitbox on Belay can be out prioritized. If it is, then the leader will rise no higher than when the move is done solo.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Belay has a smaller hitbox making it harder to land against grounded opponents.}} | |||
*[[Blizzard]]: | |||
**{{change|Both Ice Climbers aim Blizzard forward while on the ground, similarly to their aerial version in previous games. This increases its damage output when used on the ground, but means that Blizzard can no longer hit opponents behind them hindering its spacing potential.}} | |||
**{{buff|Blizzard freezes opponents for a longer period of time.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Blizzard deals less damage at close range (2% → 1.7%) and it has more ending lag (frame 80 → 85). It also no longer causes hitstun or freezes opponent when used at far range removing its ability to lock and hindering its spacing potential.}} | |||
*[[Iceberg]]: | |||
**{{buff|Iceberg now spins and features a teetering [[Polar Bear]] that launches opponents with greater knockback. During the move, a [[Condor]] will circle around the top of the screen, which the Ice Climbers can grab onto, and it will also deal damage to opponents that touch it.}} | |||
**{{change|When paired, the Ice Climbers no longer make a "clapping" sound upon activating Iceberg.}} | |||
**{{change|Iceberg lasts a shorter duration. This makes it less threatening to opponents, but also makes it less likely to lose the partner climber.}} | |||
**{{buff|The iceberg can now be moved across the stage.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Iceberg no longer freezes opponents.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Iceberg no longer causes platforms to damage opponents.}} | |||
