Ice Climbers actually have a chain grab across the stage against fatty's into a smash once you get to the ledge (down throw -> dair -> regrab). Ice Climbers are a bit underrated imo. Metroid has also said this is a hard match up for Zard. Zard has trouble against blizzard walls, but probably wins neutral by a little. Unfortunately he is below average at separating the ICs (though it's still very doable), and he gets punished by grabs much harder than other characters do against them. ICs also send Zard off stage at low angles frequently, preventing him from doing his best recovery option: recovering from high.
