I've heard many people say that G&W's Dthrow to Dsmash is inescapable for Lucas....BUT
Using the concept of extra-inch DI, I've been able to consistantly escape my friend's Dthrow to Dsmash combo. I simply start holding the C-stick(which is set to smashes. Not sure if that matters) in the direction I intend to tech roll before the down-throw is complete. As long as the tech roll is successful, I've safely avoided the Dsmash EVERY time.
As a disclaimer, my friend is not the best G&W, and I think it would be best if this was thoroughly tested before I start claiming this works definitively.
Get to testing fellow Lucas players! (or if this has already been confirmed/denied, let me know)
