Time to get Jiggy with it!

Time to get Jiggy with it!

i am a very successful and experienced puff main and you got a lot of facts wrong like for example back throw is amazing since it leads to tons of things including back air forward air pound and tons of other moves it is by far her best one, because you know what your opponent is going to do. you also misjudged her other grabs as well and if you want a good guide try this one https://smashboards.com/guides/gotta-catch-them-all-a-jiggly-puff-guide.1101/
I really liked it, i didn't know that all of this was possible (well, except for the edgeguards). I think that this'll help me a lot in tournament :D
(Also i didn't understand something: Is any of this guaranteed?)

Thanks for the review! However, this is now a bit outdated, and though you might be able to space back airs if you back throw (which I used to do), none of it is actually guaranteed. When I wrote the guide, the options were a bit better with that current meta game, so now I just use throws for offstage pressure mainly, and a few combos here and there. Forward throw is not actually the best throw, and down throw I feel like doesn't feel as good as it once did, so now I would tie up and down throw. In the end, I would chanfe a lot of this, but other than follow ups, all this info should be correct. Follow ups I can still sometimes get at early percents, mainly because my opponent doesn't think Jigglypuff is quick enough for such speed for a somewhat quick combo, but at a higher level, don't depend on the throw game. Thanks for asking! :)
Puff's up throw has lots of options and great setups. Often times it can set up great strings, and put your opponent in a bad position. Often times at low percents an fthrow or dthrow doesn't have any reliable setups, and they get onstage before we even get out of throw endlag. Your downthrow analysis was good, but I think the ranking of your fthrow and b throw is swapped, because fthrow puts them at a higher angle, and has worse kb than bthrow. Nice job with a lot of the analysis, but some things were off.

Thanks for the review. These observations are of me playing other players, and not actually practicing for a long amount of time, even though I did a little bit. I wish I included combos out of the throws forore info. I also could've experimented with down throw more, but I think J did good :). I'll make more guides in the future!
