Hell yes.

Ice Climbers


The one in blue is Popo. The one in pink is Nana. And the two of them get along great! ...I think.

These two move as a pair, with Nana automatically following along. There’s safety in numbers—protect and be protected!

You know, I never realized how much I really liked the IC's until I learned that they were back. I flailed around so much I almost hit my roommate in the face.

They look so awesome. And it looks like they have a new taunt.

I promise you all, I will do my very best to be in the forefront of making these guys top tier. Or at least ban-worth ;)

YAY!! ICs are back!!! This was definitely a surprise, I'd pretty much given up all hope that they'd return. This made my day.

I wonder how much the Nana AI has improved?

I don't care if she's smarter or dumber as long as she's consistent. The major problem with her now is that sometimes she outplays even really good players, and sometimes she stands on the other side of the stage waiting for you to lose. Her AI is unpredictably random. That gives people some degree of credibility in arguing that the character is unfair.

Wait does this mean you can now attack people by jumping on them Mario style? Because that would lead to some RIDICULOUS mindgames.

yea lix in brawl jumping off a persons head allows you to bounce higher off them (circa NES marios) and if its in mid-air it meteor smashes em too.

can we say desynch bounce combos??? the 'POPOLINE' perhaps??? orly?

if in 3 months we start calling it the 'popoline' i want credit for that. :)

the best new from dojo...

the second pic shows something interesting..probably they continue with the desynch, cause popo is using the blizzard and nana is just preparing her blizzard, so they continue with the lag with one atk to other...so i think desynch is in

the footstool pops a character up bc it meteor smashes them down in mid-air (or so i assume since the game isnt out yet duh)... much like CF's stomp. so the cg might not be as easy as you think--u would have to grab them in the lag of nana footstooling them. completely possible of course just requires more timing.

i also realized my patented 'popoline' probably isnt possible either cus u prob cant footstool ur own nana with popo. but if you cannnnnn..... that would be teh sex :)

Also, since the footstool jump pops them up, that means there would be a lot of lag between reiterations of the CG. Nana would have to come all the way down before you could re-do it, and that would give them time to wiggle out.

And, like the f-air spiking chaingrab, it will let the opponent tech at a higher percent--assuming meteor smashes work the same way. But it will probably be viable at low percent XD

I'm getting giddy.
