You don't CG ice climbers
If you somehow super gimp nana while popo is still at CG percents then you may CG him but you don't CG ice climberS
The IC matchup is actually a scary one to me (Fly Amanita was at the tournament i just went to, I didnt face him though) somehow you have to out space them the whole game or you'r in trouble, lasers will interrupt any desynch pattern they have going but it's really a scary match-up. I'm considering a Marth CP if I ever face a good IC, the sword length should make staying out of the grab easier i think.

Yeah, you should never grab a climber if both of them are together. If you grab nana, you'll get wrecked by popo, and vice versa. Against many good ICs, getting grabbed is almost a surefire stock off or really high percentages. For that reason, you should stay out of their grab range.

Haha, NO ONE can grab the IC's, not even D3. The only way I've found to reliably win this matchup is to camp like a ***** and reflector or dash/gatling combo then run to the other side again. It's not too exciting, but if he grabs you, that's a stock gone against a good IC player.
