But how many of you really use Dair? I hardly see people Dair in videos with ICs. :3

I usually only Dair if I know it will autocancel, or if I know it out-prioritizes an attack they have committed to.

I use d-air near above the opponent.
D-air can be used as a semi-recovery and it's useful for a solo climber.
If I'm way up near offscreen, I use d-air to go down.
If I get hit upwards, I use d-air.

I use Dair when I feel like it =P

I use it agasint characters with not so great vertical attacking options like Falco, Captain Falcon, Ganondorf.... ect.

For me I don't use there tilts... and I try not to smash to much but it ends up happening o.o
Chain grabbing is well everyones good part in playing IC just need to get it down so others can't get out of it. Erm... that's about it.

I try to out-mindgame my opponent too much.

Well, risk vs reward. I'm feeling that it's worth it.

I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too grab happy :\

I still fight normally and de-sync and everything, but pretty much between each attack I attempt a grab :D

Normally gets me a face full of Fsmash.

Desync taunting.

Nothing is better then two Ice Climbers screaming ORLY and YARLY at your face, then you approach and forget one of them can grab you.

... I think d-air hates me.

I'm get a habit of using d-air when I'm above my opponent, and I always think it will hit.. I need to use more b-airs and n-airs instead of d-airs when I'm above my opponent, and that I always get caught on getting hit after d-air's ending lag sometimes. The fact is, d-air gives me a lot of trouble really, so I need to use it less.. x-x; Or maybe I'm just worn out of the battles because I've played to many matches and lost patience wanting my opponent to get hit a lot.

My Nana tends to use Belay while I try to save her. That results in both of them just doing the throw-animation... Also happens frequently when trying to recover. I've actually started to prefer Squall for recovery purposes >_<

Also, I suck at b-throw chaingrabbing, but meh, who needs that, really?

1 - Abuse squall. A lot.
2 - Neglect my little sister. For what it's worth, I do play a decent solo-popo.
3 - I very seldom grab.
