Ice Climbers's Counter Picks

Make sure to practice desyncing in training mode. Consistency in desyncing is extremely important while playing Icies.

Don't over desync in neutral. Keep them synced unless you know a specific reason to desync at that moment, think of it like throwing out too many of the same move

If you are going to desync in neutral, neutral special is a highlight for it, and short hop down special can be useful as well, but don't overuse it (down special)

you can desync in netrual as a bait if you keep track of which climber you are using a move with at that given time. whichever climber isnt using a move can punish the opponent trying to jump over you

One way to time side b during down throw is to buffer roll and then side b, this can be EXTREMELY useful in desync combos, and can guarantee you an up tilt up air up air ar low to 0 percent
