Character Description[]
Ike is the son of Greil, leader of the Greil Mercenaries, and takes leadership when his father is killed by the Black Knight. For the most part of the game, he is in the service of Princess Elincia. Ike is rather naive in the beginning of the game, but grows into a brave character later on. He has little memory of his life in Gallia as a young child, and prior to joining the Greil Mercenaries, shows that he does not know what Laguz are. He is a kind and brave character, and is very protective of his friends and family. His motivation is to avenge his father's death, but he seeks no reward in aiding Crimea's liberation and helping Elincia to claim the throne as queen, except for the usual payment as being a mercenary.
Attributes[]
Ike is a moderately heavy character with very slow, but very powerful attacks. Ike is considered a slow character in the game due to his slow attacks and slow ground and air speed. Most of his attacks though possess high damage, high knockback, and good range, giving Ike startling killing potential at low damages. Ike's Special Moves allow him to reflect physical attacks, recovery very easily, but slowly, and even do damage to himself. His aerial game is not very efficient due to his very slow recovery and fast falling speed. His Grabs and throws are very fast and very effective. One of Ike's major drawbacks are his lack of projectiles, slow Dash attack and he himself is a large target, making him easier to hit.
