So, for today, we're discussing old-school mountain climbers, that are considered worthless and things of the like far and wide, so for the purpose of avoiding unconstructive comments, SPAM, flaming and flamebaiting (Through bashing), reporting should be an act to be done well.

So, no time for questions today, I gotta get out of here in a hurry. Just start the discussion, will ya?

IC's are really good at damage racking. And are really powerful.
Hard to main, but once you do, you have a lot of options with them. Really useful.

I think SSG just said everything I could've.

As nice as the tag team concept is...they're completely useless as far as recodnition goes. Look, we already have Pit, we don't need another retro character. Pit could've been in Melee, and that could've made something good out of the Kid Icarus series (or at least a lot of pissed-off fanboys at Pit's "cheapness" rather than "WTF IC's"). Their role in the Subspace Emissary...look, they shouldn't have even been in it. Really, the Glacial Peak was just stuffed into SSE to make an excuse for the Ice Climbers to be there. It would've made sense if they were just climbing early in the game and Dedede/Halberd/Star Wolf/Spiteful Toon Link attacks, but just climbing and Meta Knight is the real star? Pitiful, absolutely pitiful.

The Ice Climbers, while good characters in their own unique way, are useless to the Super Smash Bros. series and general Nintendo media. Note that they're the only characters who haven't appeared in Brawl Taunts. They're THAT unnoticable.

If you wanted a tag team, I much would've prefered Lolo & Lala or the Baby Mawio Bwos.

Bowser Time!
Mr. I, while you say that they're very horrible, you HAVE TO notice that there are others who like them, preferably me. So stop flaming them.

To me, they are useful. I experimented them with their vB move, and i find that it can spam pretty well if you can master them. Although they are weak alone, you should do fine with one if you dodge a lot. And the presence of another character on your side in a Battle Royale REALLY helps their value.

I give them a 4 out of 5.

I was nearly unstoppable using them in Melee. I don't play them as much in Brawl, but I can still lay the hurt down on somebody... and nothing beats having two Beam Swords at the same time.

[Yoshi]

I agree with Mister I, but I also use them because I pwn hard with them.

The Ice Climbers are really a power bunch.

When they are together, their attacks are very powerful and can cover a wide range of space and time, and many options are available. They are the only characters that can use 2 different items and grab 2 enemies at the same time, thanks to their teamwork.

Each climbers have their own damage meter. The shown one is the Playable Climber's one. The NPC (Non-Playable Climber)'s is not shown, thought.

And while most of their advantage are gone when alone, the lone climber still have enough force to do as much damage as possible. All is not over!
