Introduction

Vanilla Ice, one of DIO's loyal followers in Stardust Crusaders, the third part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, is an offensive character similar to a grappler, mixing between strikes, throws, and unblockable options in order to open up the opponent and erase their health bar upon contact.

• Unblockable Attacks: Vanilla Ice has access to multiple attacks the opponent can not block, allowing him to mix up between strikes, throws, and unblockables to open them easily

Playstyle

Vanilla Ice is a Stand character who utilizes his unblockable attacks and command throw to mix up the opponent with strike/throw options and deal devastating damage upon hitting them
Pros	Cons
Pro 1: TBD Pro 2: TBD Pro 3: TBD	Zoning Troubles: While Vanilla Ice can erase projectiles and become invincible, he is required to use his Stand Gauge to do so, making him use a resource to get past projectiles if he chooses to do so this way while otherwise not having any other tools to get past said projectiles Con 2: TBD

Stand Gauge

While Vanilla Ice is in Stand Off, he will continuously build Stand Gauge, which starts at half at the beginning of the round. Vanilla Ice uses this gauge to perform his unblockable attacks, such as 22X and Stand L/M/H. This gauge does not fill up while he is in Stand On, and will be consumed any time he attacks, gets hit, or blocks while in Stand On. If he is in Stand On when the gauge runs out, he will be forced back into Stand Off, leaving him open for an attack from the opponent.
