Wario, Wario Land 4 instruction booklet

Snowman Wario,[1][2] also known as Snow Wario,[3][4] is one of Wario's reactions in the Wario Land series. It is triggered by having a snowdrift fall on Wario's head. He is then covered in snow, reducing his walking speed and jumping height, but allowing him to defeat enemies when he touches them. Also, in a similar manner to rolling, if he steps on a slope, he will become an uncontrollable rolling snowball that is able to break Snowman Blocks. When he hits a wall in this state, he will return to normal.
