Icemen

The Icemen(アイスメン, Aisumen） are a team of shaman who entered the Shaman Tournament. By far none of the them have been revealed to have any goal associated with gaining the Great Spirit.

About
A squadron of shamans from the northern parts of Europe. Training and hardening their pride and duty through the cold, these shaman are notable for their teamwork, using each other's abilities to complement one another and defeat their opponents. Their pride is initially pushed out by Yoh claiming their own confidence in the first round, driving out the arrogance of leader Pino and forcing them to try and prove their own worth in the Shaman Fight. However, the revealed combined power of Yoh, Faust and Ryu made the team realize who they were dealing with and made them lose their arrogance in defeat. Their own ice abilities allowed them to make easy friends with Horohoro, who would be forced to assist them to escape the island when they are attacked by Hao's followers after their official defeat.

VS Team "Funbari Onsen"
The Icemen were paired against team Funbari Onsen in the second rounds of the Shaman fight. They had a bit of fun with Team The Ren before their fight. They were the first to step on the battle arena and waited for their opponents. Yoh showed off a bit of his power by using the spirit of sword. The Iceman were scared of this show but decided to fight. The match started with The Icemen going after Faust. Faust was thrown into the air but stood up. The Icemen realized that the legs Faust was standing on were really a oversoul. Faust take one attack from the Icemen and powers his new Mephisto E. oversoul. The Icemen have no choice but to back off scared of this power. Pino goes in and attacks Yoh but hits Ryu instead. Ryu melts the ice Pino just fired at him.

The Icemen launch another attack but is blocked by Ryu. Ryu busts out of the ice Pino threw and throws him over his shoulder. Ryu powers up his oversoul to Yamata no Orochi forcing the Icemen to back off again scared. Yoh wants to fight now and the Icemen fire a combo at Yoh but he is unharmed because of some new techniques he learned from Asakura Hao's book.

Yoh powers up the Spirit of Sword again and asks the Iceman to attack once more and at full power. They know this is their last chance to win so they oblige with their strongest technique. Yoh dodges the attack and hits The Icemen ending the match. The Icemen lose to Yoh and his friends and they stay to watch the rest of the second round matches.

Anime/Manga Difference
The Icemen were shown in one episode and the fight between Funabari Onsen and them was short and the battle ended the same way. They returned for one episode when Hao was close to getting the great spirit they fought Hao's followers and held them off long enough for Yoh and the others to get to the great spirit.
