This technique involves [[grabbing]] one's opponent with the primary Ice Climber, then repeatedly using [[ftilt]] or [[dtilt]] with the other Ice Climber.

When performed with the right timing, the grab is absolutely inescapable, no matter what the opponent does.

Wobbling is an infinite grab technique specific to the Ice Climbers. It became well known during NCT2 when Wobbles the Phoenix claimed 9th place using it often, giving his name to the technique. This technique involves grabbing and pummeling one's opponent with the primary Ice Climber, then repeatedly using ftilt or dtilt with the other Ice Climber. This technique tacks on damage, and can lead to a fsmash by the secondary Ice Climber when damage is high enough. When performed with the right timing, the grab is absolutely inescapable, no matter what the opponent does.

Tournament legality

Wobbling is an extremely controversial technique because the opponent can't escape it when performed correctly. It means that a player able to perform it is sure to get a KO if he/she can grab an opponent above 20% if both Ice Climbers are alive. Many debates were created to decide whether this technique should be banned or not, even though the organizer is the only one deciding for his tournament. The pro-wobbling side insists on the fact that the technique is too situational to influence a match, while the anti wobbling side disagrees on this point and underlines the ease of use of wobbling and its KO guarantee.

Wobbling in the US tournaments

While some tournaments like the Zero Challenge banned abusive use of wobbling, this technique seems to be accepted by the majority and is often tournament legal.

Wobbling in Japanese tournaments

Wobbling is allowed in Japan.

Wobbling in European tournaments

Europe is really divided on wobbling. While some players accept it and allow its use during tournaments such as RoX4, the technique meet a really strong opposition with players such as the Dutch smasher Nihonjin or with countries as a whole, such as France where most players are opposed to wobbling and have been banning it from tournaments since it has been discovered.
