Not alot for me to say about this video really

I've tried not to overload it with the grab combos... Probably failed with that, after all, thats what the IC do :D

Enjoy!

[Wrap It Up]

I thought you alrdy had a combo vid out. But its still really good

 

[KRDsonic]

Awesome combo video. It's also the only IC combo video I've seen so far that had way more than just chain grabs, and your desyncs were perfect.

 

[momochuu]

Well I'm inspired. You were fighting the characters that I absolutely refuse to use the Ice Climbers against. Now I see that they do have a chance.

 

[Miller]

The best fighting skills with Iceys that I've seen ever. Great job. But theres just one thing. Your CGs lack speed, I suggest you work on that. But otherwise, amazing. One of the top iceys around.

 

[VirtualVoid]

Thanks for the great comments everyone!

Wrap It Up, I released two combo videos before that, one was a Luigi/IC hybrid video called "Into the Void" (It's rather weak in my opinion, I was pretty new to brawl back then), and the other was "The Green Reaper" - A Luigi combo video.

Millar, you are probably right. Altough, if I hear my opponent mashing I will usually speed up. I always try to do the chains as slow as possible without risking them breaking free to decrease the chances of me screwing up.

This is amazing.

Nice Desyncs. Especially that first one with the blizzards on that Meta knight. Great work with chain grabbing and combo usage. You made it seem very easy to kill someone with Ice Climbers even if you don't grab them. Keep up the good work with your videos. I really liked your Snowstorm one. It was the first video that I saw of chaingrabbing before I knew it existed (because Melee Nana was too hard to control).

awesome video, i really enjoyed it =D
the tech chases were smexy

 

[Orwell]

VirtualVoid, I have a question. In one of your videos, you edgeguard by having Popo stand on the end of the ledge F-smashing while Nana F-airs from just under. I can sort of do the same thing, but it requires me to swing Popo's hammer twice before Nana F-air's. My question is, what are the instructions for doing it your way? Any tips?

Great videos by the way. I've learned more about the Ice Climbers in the past 5 days than I have in the past 5 years.

NICE icies, I sort of play like you. I got some tips also from the vid so thanks

You need nana to be just under the edge and keep spamming aerials for her to float (No Dair), the best way to do it is have her grab the edge by herself with your favorite desync then press away from the edge + A with a little bit of delay, resulting in popo smashing and nana doing a fair without falling. Continue spamming attacks and she will keep floating....

Nana can also float under platforms in the middle of the stage, I'm not sure exactly how it's done and its probably not very effective.

you can do that by desynching and having nana drop through the platform with popo still in top of it. she only floats there for a little bit though and its only application would be to try and hit people under you without having to take damage yourself

 

[Speedsk8er]

Sexy vid. :D

 

[VirtualVoid]

Work on a sequel started today :D

 

[choknater]

can't believe i didn't see this before

void, you are the best ic's

finally, someone who actually knows how to use them

 

[BlueTerrorist]

NEEDS MOAR GRABS!!

Just kidding . Good thing i'm not the only one uses desynchs for other things besides grabs.

This vid wins and is proof that ICs are still dangerous even without grabs.

 

[Hylian]

Very awesome .

I loved at around 4 mins when you chase the falco with unorthadox moves XD.

Thanks, sadly your combo video only had tiny bits of IC and they were all chainthrows.. (Don't get me wrong you are probably the best alternate grabber out there) But it would be awesome to see some non-grabbish stuff from you :D

Oh yeah and the ftilt from the grab was clearly a mistake but I managed to grab after it anyways heh.
