They aren't top tier...um, since nana is "artificial intelligence" she is easy to get rid of, making 1 IC easier to kill since 1 ic isnt that great.

EDIT: Ivans idea works too

It might get destructive for your IC's but he will realize it in time anyway, play peach against his IC's and floatcancel spaced fairs to dsmash...

Have him pick Ice Climbers on Yoshi's Story while you pick Fox. Then the only move you can attack with is downB.

LOL fox would **** the ICs like that, its actually kind of dumb that all fox needs is shine in that match up. Obviously he would still have to play well but the only offensive move he would need to use is the shine lols.

i **** fox on yoshi's..but icy's are cheap so is every other character
I do really well against almost all of the Fox's I've played especially on Yoshis because I dont really like to chain throw and its easier for me to edgeguard on small stages.

convince him that there aren't 2 of them, your just moving so fast he's delirious.
LOL!!

I have found the best way to show someone that the ice climbers aren't cheap is to have them play as the ice climbers and you play as thier character and just beat the ever loving pie out of thier face. Once they see how difficult it is to play as them they SHOULD back off a little bit, hopefully.

Worth a shot, although I tried this with a friend once and he almost won so it didn't work out as well as I'd hoped, I think he had an easier time learning them than I did though because he had played against them so much that he knew the basic strategy and what they are capable of.

My friend use to think they were really cheap, I just told him to shut up and get use to them because they aren't going anywhere. I guess it worked, he hasn't really said much about that since.
