| “ | Don a beautiful tiara of ice, and become a frigid force of nature! Use this ability to skate around enemies, then stop them cold with a volley of foe-freezing icicles. Brrr! | ” | — Figure description from Kirby and the Forgotten Land |
Blizzard Ice is an Evolved Copy Ability based on Ice that appears in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. With this ability, Kirby wears a tiara of ice with much larger ice crystals than the standard Ice hat and is able to spew out long-ranged icicles to both freeze enemies and create grounded icicles which Kirby can then kick.
The blueprint for Blizzard Ice can be found in the stage Collector in the Sleepless Valley, rewarded after defeating Sillydillo. Blizzard Ice is required to play the Treasure Road stage Freeze and Find! Magma Skating.
MovesetEdit
All attack names come from the Kirby and the Forgotten Land Perfect Support Guide unless otherwise stated.
| Blizzard Ice moveset | ||
|---|---|---|
| Move | Button execution | Description |
| かっそう Ice Skate |
Dash | In a similar fashion to how Ice-Cutter Kirby skates across the ground, Kirby also gains increased speed compared to his normal dash, and is now able to skate over the surface of water, mud and magma. |
| こちこちといき Ice Breath |
B | Kirby spits icicles in quick succession. By moving the L Stick during the attack, Kirby can walk slowly and rotate 360 degrees. Holding L/R fixes Kirby's aim while he moves. |
| アイスウォールメーカー Ice Wall Maker |
Hold B | Prolonged use of Kirby's Ice Breath has the icicles Kirby spits, should they hit the ground, form blocks of ice which can be kicked. If this attack is held in a single direction, the ice blocks will grow larger. |
| こちこちブリザード Ice Storm |
B repeatedly | Kirby creates a field of ice spikes to damage enemies. When used while dashing, Kirby keeps the momentum and leaves ice shards on his trail. When released, Kirby will throw the spikes, damaging enemies in a sizeable area around him. |
| 氷キック Ice Kick |
While touching ice | Kirby in this form (and all his other forms and other characters) can kick the frozen enemy across the screen with a slight homing ability. |
| こちこちガード Ice Block |
L/R/ZL/ZR | Kirby encases himself in a shield of jagged ice which blocks attacks and deals minor damage on contact. Unlike his normal guard, he takes no damage from blocked attacks, but he cannot dodge. Some attacks can penetrate the shield. |
| こおりちらし Ice Scatter |
While using Ice Block, release L/R/ZL/ZR (or cancel Ice Block via Attack/Slide) | Kirby breaks out of his Ice block dealing minor damage to enemies. By tilting the L-Stick during Ice Scatter, Kirby can dodge in place which can trigger the slow motion effect. |
All ice attacks can gradually freeze bosses and mini-bosses, encasing them in ice and slowing them down, until they are finally frozen solid. When they thaw out, they take heavy damage.
