Beginning Ice Climbers

[rubywingedflier]

As someone who's just learning melee and wants to main ice climbers, what are the basic skills I need to learn?

Hi, i'm doing exactly the same thing so good luck. I'm guessing reading this guide by Fly Amanita as well the everything thread linked early in the guide is a great place to start.

The most important thing for a new ice climber is to get comfortable with your movement and be able to do wavedash/wd out of shield over and over without messing up. Other important things is to learn the basic desynchs and be able to consistently short hop aerial

Oh,okay thanks. I have gotten down wave dashing from just standing,but haven't really gotten it out of shield,and I haven't really worked on the other two things, so this gives me some things to work on

Try to begin wrapping your head around crouch cancel. CC dsmash and CC grab are gonna be two of your most used options, so it's imperative you begin playing melee with an understanding of that mechanic.

Just be careful of what you CC. CC'd Peach down smash and you'll be seeing 100% and both climbers flying in different directions
