First off chill brah. We have a matchup thread. Look for the Ice Climbers discussion. Also we helped the Ice Climbers with their Sonic discussion. You can check those. Other than that, use ASC and anything else you can to separate them. Then **** Nana. If you can land a good fair or something you're fast enough to kick her around without Popo doing much to stop you. It's clearly not THAT easy but if they're spamming grabs you should be able to divide and conquer. It's more important to watch out for desynched blizzards and ice shots that lead INTO grabs.

I'd pretty much just take CiTH's advice. If you don't get grabbed, you fight the easiest fight you can ever fight, especially if you take Nana out of the picture.

The character's metagame is so bad when it isn't about CGs and Desyncs, it's like taking candy from a baby.

If your IC opponent is just absolutely focused on grabs, it makes them really predictable and easy to punish, so long as you focus on playing not to get grabbed. Newbie IC's tend to focus on learning how to chaingrab and get wrecked if you kill Nana.

It's alot tougher when they're able to fight desynched because then they actually use attacks (and smartly), so that if you slip up, you get grabbed - but it's not a necessity for them to grab you to kill you.

The best IC's can fight desynched, but also have good ability to chaingrab IF they get the chance, so they'll definitely kill you if you get grabbed.
