Backwards dash/shorthop to space out an aerial, into >B is great specially against GAW because he gets stuck in his aerials since they're relatively long. So baiting gaw into trying to land aerials is good so you can space out and hit him back.Thank you for reviving the thread, I love you now since I think the ICs boards REALLY need this. =D
Here are two cents of my ways of defeating G&W.
Ice block spam makes G&W users come to me since they can't absorb it with their bucket. But than they tend to use Bair so I try and stop early so I have time to walk back or sidestep to dodge it.
Squall works wonder when I'm behind them, but I feel like most of his attacks have more priority over the ICs
That's what I can think of now
Squall Hammer works great. Bait gaw into shorthopping an aerial, shorthop backwards yourself, and fall into him with your squall hammer. Try it out. It makes gaw players try to find another way to attack you. Which is great because if they get too aggressive, you can just blizzard them out of your face.Their Squall hammer never seems to work against G&W for me, since most of his moves outrange it, so it'll stop you.
LOL you say this like you know everything.ICES VS GAW is an EVEN MATCHUP. People that have trouble against gaw have to get used to its aerial game.
Grab-friendly IC players get ***** too.
The only bad matchups for IC are, at equal skill level:
MK 30% chance to win (omg nana noooo!!...omg edgeguard omg!!)
R.O.B. 40% chance to win (usually can't 0 to death it)
Olimar 40% chance to win (fsmash>blizzard OMG?? and spiking nana=too good)
Just stop trying to shieldgrab and try to not be stupid. Pressing Z twice per second also counts as not smart. Some characters are too hard to grab if played well, I feel like most of my matches against gaw players, I don't land a single grab. Of course, if you do land a grab, be ready to KO off of it.
IC players tend to think that EVEN MATCHUPS are bad for the ICs. Well they're not. So stop it, it's annoying.
Egg lay OMG OMG!I like to suggest Yoshi for next (This?) week. I don't think he's as easy as you say he is. In fact I think he actually has an advantage over them.
I can post reasons right now as on why, but I don't think you're done with Game & Watch yet. I can wait
There's more than just Egg Lay >_>Egg lay OMG OMG!
eh?care to enlighten?...There's more than just Egg Lay >_>
Alot more......
I actually agree, a good yoshi can give Ice Climbers some trouble, especially with his good aerial approaches, the same reasons peach can give Ice Climbers trouble is the same for Yoshi, he's constantly in the air and is easy to space with.I like to suggest Yoshi for next (This?) week.
