From Fire Emblem, Ike appears! The fact that he can wield a two-handed sword with a single hand is a testament to his magnificent strength.

He brings his special move "Aether" with him as he crashes the Brawl party. Try for a single-stroke finishing blow with his mighty blade!

Ike’s up special move, obviously, is "Aether." And it is ethereal. Oh, yes.

<Up Special Move: Aether>

First he throws the sword!

Then he leaps after it and catches it in midair!

Then he swiftly plunges, slicing the air!

Of special importance is the fact that he is resistant to attacks for a moment right after throwing his sword.

He’s not flinching?!

He’s not really invincible—he still takes damage. But he won’t flinch in the slightest.

This time, there are several moves like this among the heavy characters, so watch out!

Oh, he also has this special move...

<Standard Special Move: Eruption>

His standard special move is called Eruption!
You can even charge this one up.

<Great Aether>

It’s Ike’s Final Smash, Great Aether. As the name suggests, it’s a more powerful version of Aether.

First things first: get the Smash Ball!

Do a standard special move to swing your blazing sword!

Great!

AETHER!

Then he just plummets.

At the moment of impact, your foes are launched!

That feels gooood... It’s exciting and exhilarating.

But, you do have make sure you hit with the Final Smash. Its range of impact is pretty large, so you just have to get the right timing.

Try to lift up multiple enemies!

In multiplayer brawls, you can move freely as long as you aren’t the one who’s suffering the Final Smash.

Ike is invincible during his Final Smash, so you can’t really meddle with him. But as for the people he’s finishing off...?

Maybe you could add to their woes. Could this be a plan?
