Diamond Dust! (a Touhou LW original) refers to tiny ice crystals. Yukkuri Cirno loves diamond dust because the name sounds cool. Apparently, just saying the word "diamond" makes her feel strong. Yukkuri Cirno is endowed with Water Phase as a yukkuri ice spirit and Star Essence because she's a capricious yukkuri fairy. The flexible and patient Water Phase resists Metal Phase, because metal collects water, but it is weak to Earth Phase, because earth directs water. The diverse and uncooperative Star Essence resists the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence, but it is weak to the charming and arrogant Sun Essence.
Yukkuri Cirno's ability (a Touhou LW original). The "capable of taking it easy" ability held by yukkuris incorporates a toned-down version of their Yukkuri Master's signature ability. This means that Yukkuri Cirno is also capable of slowly manipulating cold. Sudden temperature changes are easy to detect, but it might already be too late by the time Yukkuri Cirno's targets realize that she's ever-so-slowly been freezing them. Reducing the temperature in small increments isn't flashy, but it has the power to cause an ice age. Considering this, it makes sense that Yukkuri Cirno calls herself the strongest.
Yukkuri Cirno's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). She shoots out bullets that look kind of like icicles in this attack. Unfortunately, she can't make them as pointy as she would like, so they're more like chunks of ice than proper icicles. Either way, they still hurt.
Yukkuri Cirno's Focus Shot (a Touhou LW original). She fires a freeze ray with all her might. This freeze ray slowly cools whatever it hits, making it a popular attack in the summer. However, if you were thinking of challenging Yukkuri Cirno to a battle, hoping to get hit by this attack, you should probably reconsider. It still hurts.
Yukkuri Cirno's Spell Card (a Touhou LW original). She creates lots of icicles that rain down from the sky. Cirno designed this Spell Card to hit everyone except herself, but Yukkuri Cirno isn't quite as skilled...
Yukkuri Cirno's Spell Card (a Touhou LW original). This attack is a devious yukkuri trap. She creates beautiful bullets to lull her opponent into a false sense of security. Then she freezes the bullets and flings them at her opponent. Unfortunately, Yukkuri Cirno also gets distracted by the pretty colors, making this attack a double-edged icicle.
Yukkuri Cirno's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). Just like when Cirno uses this attack, Yukkuri Cirno uses all her might to try and freeze the entire world. However, in Yukkuri Cirno's case, this ends with her getting squished by two giant glaciers. But don't worry, she'll be fine once she wakes up from her cryogenically-induced nap.
As the self-proclaimed strongest yukkuri, Yukkuri Cirno's body is particularly spherical. Her rounded exterior helps deflect incoming attacks.
Yukkuri Cirno freezes everything in her local vicinity. The area isn't that big, but it's indiscriminate.
She made a net with her yukkuri friends. The sizes of the holes are a bit uneven, but it's quite effective (and very annoying) when she freezes the ground beneath whoever's trapped under it.
