Forward smash: One of the Ice Climbers’ best kill moves (if not the best) and helps rack up a ton of damage.Make sure to only use Ice Shot from far away so that the Ice Climbers don’t learn to use it at point-blank range! This move is also extremely easy to parry, which can give you a good opportunity to get some shield practice in. Ice Shot: As stated before, this move will make opposing FPs jump over it.

Now it’s time to talk about some commonly-used moves! For more information on Spirited amiibo training, feel free to join the S.A.M. Do keep in mind that if you use this move too much, the Ice Climbers will do nothing else but jump up and then use down air.

When they use it, they have a tendency to spam it and don’t always aim in the direction of an opponent.

So if the Ice Climbers are trained to use Ice Shot from a distance, the opponent can only approach from the air - which leaves them prone to being smacked with an up smash or forward smash, which then knocks them away and repeats the process over again. When an FP sees a hitbox from Ice Shot moving toward them from afar, they’ll most likely jump to avoid being hurt. Sometimes other FPs will even freeze for a few seconds, as they don’t know which climber to attack! With that said, though, the Ice Climbers have one move in particular that exploits amiibo AI better than most others: Ice Shot. The Ice Climbers are one of the few FPs that do this sort of naturally, since the opponent reads the Ice Climbers as two entities (Popo and Nana). At the time of writing, both my standard and “corruption” Ice Climbers have 24.39 and 23.89 ratings on Spirit Amiibots, respectively.Ī corruption amiibo is one whose primary strategy revolves around the use of a move that messes with the opponent’s AI. I made my first well-known appearance in the Raid Boss Open (RBO) tournament where I got top 32 with my Ice Climbers FP SoftSquish. Hi, my name is Isla! I’ve been in the amiibo scene for over a year now, and have spent a large part of my time here messing around with the Ice Climbers amiibo. Special thanks to Isla for writing this up!
