Good auto shimmy, the mid will catch ducking opponents who were expecting a throw from the similar animation. The window to input the 2 here can be pretty tight.

Causes knockdown, can be special cancelled. On hit during a combo this can be followed up with Slide ender. Can only be punished if the opponent has a 6-frame reversal, which many don't.

Cannot be canceled into special moves if Flawless Blocked. It's a 6-frame jab that allows you to punish and challenge pressure in ways most of the kast aren't able to. Jail into your high starters if you get a hit with this attack.

Jump and Hop Attacks

Cancel	Hit Adv	Blk Adv	F/Blk Adv	Cost
46	-1	-13	-13	-
Can hit the opponent earlier into the jump due to lower angle of the attack's hitbox. Used less often because of the slower startup frames and doing less damage than J2.

More horizontal hitbox and faster startup makes for a good air-to-air attack. Does more damage which makes this the more popular jump-in attack for Ice Ball combos.

N/A	104	-16	-16	-
Does 45.00 damage if opponent was frozen already during the kombo, first hit does no damage but stuns the opponent for a combo extension. Cannot be amplified without the Deep Freeze kustom ability.

Slide

Cancel	Hit Adv	Blk Adv	F/Blk Adv	Cost
22	29	-20	-20	-
A very fast, unreachable forward moving attack that lets you whiff punish from far away. Great for checking movement and going under projectiles and high attacks. It is unsafe on block so don't be too reckless. A nice gimmick to check the opponent's reactions is to cancel this out of F2 to create a challenging overhead to low mix.

Slide Amplified
B, F+3, Amp

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery
146.00 / N/A / N/A	Mid	13	5	36
Cancel	Hit Adv	Blk Adv	F/Blk Adv	Cost
N/A	9	-4	-4	1 OFF
Normal Regen Rate (10 seconds). Cannot amplify if Slide is blocked. Opponent can Breakaway from Slide before the Amplify catches them. Use if you need the side switch or badly need the extra damage/Krushing Blow. KRUSHING BLOW: "Triggers on the THIRD AMPLIFIED Slide to hit." With Krushing Blow Held Check set to ON, this activates at the player's discretion after previously landing at least two successful amplified Slides. An amped Slide is considered successful after the grab animation is activated. Throwing the opponent into an Arctic Trap counts as a successful amped Slide while the opponent using Breakaway to avoid the grab does not. Deals a total of 319.00 damage on its own.

Cancel	Hit Adv	Blk Adv	F/Blk Adv	Cost
N/A	49	-9	-9	1 OFF and 1 DEF
Fast Regen Rate (8.5 seconds). Launches opponent into the air for a juggle kombo. It is unsafe on block and has no invincibility unlike U+3 but otherwise a very good hitbox that cannot be ducked or low profiled.

Chilled Heel
U+3

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery
90.00 / 13.50 / 1.35	Mid	10	3	21
Cancel	Hit Adv	Blk Adv	F/Blk Adv	Cost
N/A	15	-7	-12	1 OFF and 1 DEF
Fast Regen Rate (8.5 seconds). Does not take damage during the animation of this attack. Can only be punished if the opponent has a 6-frame reversal attack. The opponent needs to be a little closer to get hit unlike other U+3's but otherwise a serviceable getup/block attack.
