== History ==
===''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''===
In ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', Iceads appear in the snowy portion of [[Dreamy Mount Pajamaja]]. In the field, Iceads engulf themselves in sheer cold and chase after [[Mario]] and [[Dreamy Luigi]] upon sight, stopping after exhausting themselves, where they can then be easily hit with a [[First Strike]] briefly. If not disturbed, Iceads wander around aimlessly.


Iceads usually appear in battle with their fiery counterparts, [[Magmad]]s, and thus often attack together. Iceads (usually with Magmads) can attack by approaching Mario from the front and back sides of him and forming a stack on either or both sides if there are more than two enemies involved in the attack. The Magmads and Iceads will then start firing fiery and icy blasts respectively one at a time at Mario, who must [[jump]] over the ground level blasts and idle under higher level blasts in order to avoid taking damage. If an icy blast misses Mario, it will continue on to hit whatever is straight ahead if anything, dealing 30 damage in normal mode, and 37 damage in hard mode towards Magmads and healing 30 HP towards Iceads.

An Icead may also individually approach Mario and charge into him while engulfed in ice, repeating this several times as it goes back and forth. Mario must jump over the Icead before it hits him to avoid taking damage. Occasionally during this attack, the Icead's sheer cold may wear off and it will be vulnerable to being jumped on while in that state.

An Icead transforms into a Magmad once it takes damage.
It is possible for an Icead to transform into a Magmad once it takes damage.
 
===''Mario & Luigi: Brothership''===
Iceads return in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'', where they are encountered in [[Heatfreeze Island]] and [[Slippenglide Island]]. Unlike in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', Iceads have a spike on their head which prevents Mario and Luigi from being able to jump on them, making them on par with the Magmads but also making them weak to the Anti-Spike Specialist [[Battle Plug]] and Blunt Hammer. These Iceads swing left and right in their idle animation, and attack by swinging their head spike at the target, bouncing a ball of ice energy between themselves while shifting toward their target slowly (if there is more than one), or using a strafing ice breath attack; the former two can be blocked via a hammer strike, with the lattermost being avoided by jumping. Several Iceads can be infected with [[Glohm]]; when [[Reclusa]] goes on a rampage, these [[Glohm Icead]]s replace all Iceads that have not been infected.


When the arena it is fought in is shifted to the ice cavern, the [[Pipegunk]] assumes a form similar to this version of the Icead, with the top of its body bearing the same spike that the creatures have on their head.
Iceads return in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'', where they are now encountered in the real world, and now have spikes on their heads meaning that they can no longer be jumped on either. These Iceads are found on Heatfreeze Island, swing left and right in their idle animation, and attack by swinging their head spike at the target; this can be blocked with a hammer strike.
