'''Ice Climbers''' (アイスクライマー, ''Aisu Kuraimā'', simply '''Ice Climber''' in Japan) are characters in SSBM.


==Pros & Cons==
''Game: [[Ice Climber (game)|Ice Climber]]'' (10/85)


===Pros===
==Smash Red==
*Advanced players can do massive damage
Trophy #110<br>
*High-damage [[grab]] combos, including ones that can kill opponents from 0% [[damage]]
===Description===
*Because the Ice Climbers are actually two character models, players can "[[desynch]]" the Ice Climbers, thereby allowing them to perform attacks individually.
"This unique twosome fights together as a team.  your score will not be affected if the [[CPU]]-controlled charcter is[[KO]]'d, but a lone Ice Climber won't be able to use teamwork moves, which mini-glaciers out of their hammers, while Squall Hammer is at its strongest when Nana and Popo combine their strength."
*A variety of [[edgeguarding]] options
*Strong ground game
*Very long [[wavedash]]
*Opponents have trouble [[grab|grabbing]] an Ice Climber because the other Climber can interrupt the thrower


===Cons===
''B: [[Ice Shot]]''<br>
*Slow [[dash]]; reliant on [[wavedashing]] for speed
''Smash B: [[Squall Hammer]]''
*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 [[projectile|projectiles]]
*Single Ice Climbers are [[floaty]] and vulnerable to air [[combo|combos]] and [[juggling]]
*Low ranged

===Description===
"The colors of the Ice climbers' parkas denote who's in the lead: Nana's in pink and orange, while Popo's in green or blue.  their hairstyles are also slightly different.  Belay allows them to cover great distances, but doesn't give foes the chance to target their landing.  Blizzard is best used in close quarters; in the fray, Nana and Popo sometimes freeze opponents.

'''Desynching''' is a technique that involves separating the two Climbers' animations and controlling them individually, allowing them to do different techniques at the same time.
