>Fix #1:
Give it magic guard. This makes it able to withstand rocks as its primary problem, and on top of that, makes direct damage from moves the only means of killing it. With its 90/100/125 defenses, its one of the bulkiest things out there. And even with its less than stellar typing, its a monster at tanking things without poison or curse phasing it.

Give It technician. With its access to moves like frost breath, ancient power, and air slash it could do massive damage with great coverage. While never touching the OU area like its Magic guard counterpart, it would be a UU standard.
>Fix #3
The Ice buff + snow warning. Posted a lot is the idea that Ice should resist flying and ground, and that hail should boost ice type defense by 50% like sandstorm does for Rock. With this Articuno would be a massive tank regardless of its typing, and able to roost without fear of quake. Also Brave bird resistance is nice.
