Closer to the wii every day.
Hi,

I'm a lucas main who recently heavily playing the ice climbers, as I was looking to potentially switch over. As a lucas player, I have my controls set to b-sticking, and when I started doing desynch stuff with the climbers, i found an interesting effect. If during a grab you have nana do blizzard while you throw, nana will aim the blizzard towards the victim during the whole throwing animation. It easily does 15+ damage( just the blizzard) for each throw. I thought this could be a useful mix-up to the traditional smashes ice climbers are known for. I'm sorry if this has already been discussed somewhere else in the board and I've reposted something old. I searched the board but did not find anything about b-sticking.

This has nothing to do with B-sticking. It was the same in melee haha.

An interesting thing you can do though is SH blizzard with nana after a dthrow and regrab :). You have to space it perfectly though :/.

b-sticking wouldn't be smart for the ICs since the c-stick is much more practical. it's how you smash when one climber is holding them.

i'm pretty sure you can still do a blizzard without the b-stick while holding them, tho. you have to press down lightly enough so they won't dthrow.
