It's easy to practice and the timing isn't that hard. For starters, its more technical, does more damage, and looks cooler than d-throw dair. This works extremely well at lower percents. In short fair's meteor hit box makes it surprisingly easy to regrab off of downthrow. I have decided to name this tech 'pitching' and I'll address it like this from here on.Īdditionally, this can lead into more hand-offs, pitches, or wobbles if need be.Īgain, Ice climbers players don't really know this is a thing. It's extremely flashy and can help regain stage position. By doing so, you tell popo to b-throw and tell nana to wavedash-grab simultaneously. Essentially, input a wavedash back and hit 'z.' This gives different inputs to nana and popo. Do preform this, the entire sequence has to be done in one swift motion. Essentially what you do is backthrow with popo, have nana wavedash back and regrab. Popo's b-throw can also lead into a nana regrab until higher percents (~120% I haven't fully tested the max percent). By dash dancing, popo can react to d-throw, f-throw, or b-throw in nana start up animations. dash dancing during nana's pummel makes this easier. Turning popo around to be in the position for b-throw can be tricky. If nana back-throws, the timing is a little tricky but with practice you can get it consistently. It's known that you can get f-throw/d-throw regrabs, but few climbers players can actually land b-throw regrabs. This means there is a 25% chance for each throw (f-throw,d-throw,u-throw,b-throw). Nana's throws are RNG dependent (except at ledge). I'm starting this thread to see if any other ice mains are interested in discovering new tech. There are things like f-throw handoffs/d-throw dair/nanapult that stand out from wobbling, but really there is so much more you can do with the character. For starters, icees tend to be called lame to watch but I think that the character has an amazing kit to do some flashy and cool combos. So I found some new ice climbers tech that I thought was sick and worth sharing.
