It uses a variety of attacks in his battle. It can attack by breathing a stream of cold air, which will freeze Wario, leaving him vulnerable to be headbutted by the Winter Windster. The Winter Windster can also duck into one of the lava craters in the arena and send out pulsing shockwaves of energy which will hurt Wario upon contact. It also shoots blue energy missiles. The Winter Windster's final attack is the "Evil Eye" attack, which will cause it to phase out into bursts of energy if Wario looks into his eyes when they start glowing red. The energy causes Wario to be inflated, which causes him to float over the spikes outside the arena.

To avoid the attack, Wario has to turn backwards without looking at the Winter Windster's eye.
