Presence Concealment (A++-A+++): His parameters are massively increased when temperature of the surrounding environment decreases below -20 Celsius, the temperatures experienced during the Winter War.
Marksmanship: A++
Kollaa Will Hold (C, A+): Grants an increase in strength (C) and Endurance (A+) when in a defensive fight, reference to the Battle of Kollaa where Hayha fought.
Improvised Weapons Creation: (D-B) Molotov cocktails (a weapon use by the Finns against Soviet tanks in the Winter War) will be effective against Servants to the level of a D-class Noble Phantasm, but will up to C rank against Rider class, and B in buffed by "Kollaa Will Hold". Does not apply to other improvised weapons.
Protection From Arrows: Similar to the eye of the Mind, this helped him survive numerous attempts by the Russians to kill him during the winter war. Allows him to avoid most projectiles. This ability manifests differently than most versions of this skill however. It manifests as most of his body being intangible to ranged attacks, even wide area ones. These types of attacks just pass right through his snowy form without harming him, much to the confusion of enemies. However there is one spot where this protection doesn't apply. The left side of his jaw isn't immune to ranged attacks, as it is where the bullets which were aimed at him finally found their mark.
Eye of the Mind (True): Twenty-five years of military service left Simo with a healthy appreciation of the battlefield, which is how he survived for so long as the entire Russian military poured resources into the Battle of Kualla, it took a full year of the Russians trying to kill him while desperately trying not to die in the process.
Presence Concealment: An unusual skill for an archer class servant, Simo was never the less quite adept at hiding himself in life. Numerous counter snipers, as well as countless artillery strikes attempted to find this man, yet until nearly a week before the war ended they failed. They simply just failed to find the man, as he took numerous precautions to avoid being shot and killed, even as he continued his deadly task. This has granted him this ability with a Rank of C, which ranks up in snowy environments.

The White Death: A crystallization of his legendary sniping prowess, this NP provides him Clairvoyance at a rank of B, and Marksmanship of the rank A++. He was known for his unerring shots upon the Russian infantry, having managed five kills a day during only a few hours of daylight, which is the highest known kill count of any sniper in any recorded war. Simo can see through almost anything, being capable of detecting hidden and invisible enemies, even behind buildings as if they were standing in an open field.
Cloak of Winter: Simo was a wraith in the snow, a sniper that the Russians could never seem to hit, let alone kill. He was General Winter turning coat and firing back upon his homeland. Many of the troops he killed considered him a demon, a monster in the snow. This fear, this trepidation of the opposing troops has tainted his legend, turning him from a hero to his people to a monster for his foes. Simo's form looks as if it is made of snow and shadow, constantly blowing a cold wind off his body. This ability provides him a rank up in agility and presence concealment whenever it is snowing, which increases if the temperature drops below 0 degrees Celsius.
This ability also provides the basis of his protection from arrows.
Winter War: Death Comes Shrouded in White: Rank A++
This is the truest manifestation of Simo's Legend, the Battle of Kualla. A reality marble of snow and blood.
When this phantasm's name is uttered, a blizzard bursts out from Simo's body, engulfing everyone within fifty feet as they are dragged into a reality marble. Captured individuals find themselves in a field of snow, surrounded on all sides by trees. Bullets can be heard in all directions.
Simo can concentrate the fire from the various soldiers on either side towards his foes, who will be harassed by lethal bullet fire on all sides while a rain of artillery comes from above. All the while Simo will put putting round after round of rifle fire into them, each shot made with impeccable accuracy as a blizzard seems to be roaming through the forest. This blizzard will become worse the longer the reality marble is active, eventually consuming it completely, rendering most things invisible unless what you are looking at is right next to you, a handicap Simo doesn't share.
White Death - Reaper of the Kollaa Front: Rank: C-A++Type: Anti-Unit
Causes a sudden, localized drop in temperature by 30 degrees Celsius, meaning that in colder climate and during winter in many temperate regions, it can drop the temperature below the -20 Celsius threshold necessary to reach full advantage of his stealth abilities. In this state, the firepower of his rifle increase the lower the temperature, with it having a B rank at 0 Celsius, an A- rank at -10, and an A+ rank at -20. The in-game animation shows the screen being suddenly covered by windblown snow, before switching to Hayha, now wearing an anti-snowblindness mask. At this point, Hahya's fires, the bullet taking the form of a glowing blue blast of energy that pierces the target and encases them in ice. If the player is in a location in the winter condition (such as the Russian Lostbelt), there will be an additional animation of Hayha firing a second shot that shatters the ice block, causing additional damage.
