Trick Against Ice Climbers on FD

[SaveMeJebus]

I found something that could make the Ice Climbers MU a little easier on FD. Before I learned this, I used to get grabbed a lot because my character only had two jumps and really bad aerial mobility. Then I thought to my self, "What if my character had more jumps?". Well, every character does have more than two jumps. It's called foot-stooling and it is great in this MU. Use it next time you play ICs on FD (just don't get too predictable with it)

ICs, can grab you when you're foot-stooling them.

I know skinny characters can get away with it. I don't know about the big ones

 

[Nestec]

Not sure if skinniness matters.

I like your avatar right now.

:green:

 

[disasterABDUL]

normally using more than one jump to escape ICs gets you grabbed
at least in my experience

Why would you even be on FD against them in the first place?

 

[Poltergust]

And why would this only work on FD?

MK ditto. I lose and ban whatever stage I don't like. Pocket IC's + FD.

I know you knew, I just felt like I had to respond.

I'm going to take a shower and when I get back, I would like this thread to be stickied.

Also, Diddy has bad aerial mobility?

ZSS is skinny.
I've gotten grabbed after footstooling ICs.
/thread.

Iv'e played with a couple of ICs and this never happens to me. I don't even see how this is possible since if you foot stool their shield, you are never even touching the ICs and it you foot stool the ICs themselves, they are momentarily stunned.

Footstooling their shield works, footstooling an IC doesnt.
Footstooling an IC enters you in an animation which lowers your hitbox, allowing the other ic to grab you.

Ice climbers can do it diddy who is indeed skinny as far as i know.

i really hate how i thought this was going be useful, and then raged

You can mix up your fall speed. Do not forget that deciding to fastfall at different times, going for a footstool, or doing an attack all create different results.

This is not useless, especially since you need every option you can get to mix it up when you are in this position.

how to beat the ic's?
dair camp

 

[MJG]

Just ban FD...lol

[professor mgw]

You can footstool two characters at the same time?

This is news to me.

 

[JTsm]

Funny thing is, IC still won.

 

[SaveMeJebus]

It's still a good option against ICs

 

[Judo777]

Old stuff is old lol.

This...while footstooling may seem like a good idea, you can get ****ed for trying to do this.

EDIT: Also, what judo said. This is old as **** lol

 

[hichez50]

Jebus you know you don't have to troll right? It is only an option.

That could also be said about almost anything though.

@Judo777, even if it is old, most players don't know about it

While this is indeed not the most helpful of threads, Jebus does make a solid point; Footstooling even now is still underrated by most players. So if you are reading this, go learn what attacks can be footstooled and mix it up in your normal landing options. It helps more than you know.

Also Jebus you can get grabbed while footstooling ICs; Larry has done it to me soo many times. You have to remember the grab range for particular characters.

This is the best option and I've been using it. Quiet honestly someone who does this should just not be stupid about it and press the jump gently press it so that you gain a huge jump boost.
