The Multi-Tool Ice Shield (also known as MTIS) is a combination shield and weapon that can fire ice blasts. They are used by 2.0 Heroes.
Functionality
Designed in response to the Fire Villains raiding Tanker Station 22, the MTIS is capable of withstanding high-temperature blasts and has a built in cooling system to prevent overheating. Heroes commonly customize this shield to fit their needs. The shield is both defensive and offensive, capable of launching ice blasts.
History
There are five known Heroes who have used an MTIS, and they have customized their shields. Later, the Heroes no longer use the MTIS, when they gained new armor and weapons after the Breakout, when they went to do their parts of Mission: Catch 'Em and Cuff 'Em.

Trivia
- Rocka's Multi-Tool Ice Shield, which is shown in Episode 6: Savage Planet Part 1, looks like Evo's, but its shield part is gold.
- In the television episodes, since each 2.0 Hero has two hands, the Multi-Tool Ice Shields can be worn like gauntlets. This is considered canon.
- Strangely, Stormer does not have the hose in the television episodes.
- In the television episodes, the 2.0, 3.0, and Breakout Heroes have silver armor pieces that look like shield pieces of the Mutli-Tool Ice Shields on their backs for an unknown reason.
- The Witch Doctor's gun, Ice Missile Launcher, and Jetpack Wings each have a piece that looks like the shield piece of a Multi-Tool Ice Shield. The gun's piece make up the gun's center. The Launcher and Wings' pieces were attached to their Hero users' backs.
