Heritage for the Future ★ Vanilla Ice
Vanilla Ice or Iced in the English localization, initially appeared as a sub-boss in the Venture Arcade game. He was later made fully playable in Heritage for the Future with an alternae moveset and spritework.
Movelist & Gameplay
Vanilla's specialty is to use the powers of the "void" to crash into his opponents and damage them. He can take the form of the void ball while on the ground, in mid-air, and even change directions in the middle of a charge. This allows a player with quick reflexes to counter an oncoming attack, juggle an opponent into the air with careful timing, or even retreat in the face of danger. Vanilla Ice is vulnerable while in his "void ball" form, and can be hit by projectile attacks (or even certain physical attacks, if the angle is correct).
Ice can also take the full form of his Stand Cream, who possesses very powerful and far-reaching attacks, but it comes at a steep penalty in speed and some mobility.

Boss Form
Vanilla Ice's Boss Form is the version of the character encountered in Story Mode, with a different moveset and slightly altered sprite-work. This boss uses a simpler moveset, with increased damage on his specials.
When other characters (such as fellow villains) fight him in the game's Story Mode, the spiraling grooves from his attacks are not present in the stage.
