@Witchking of Angmar = Hey thanks for the tip. The utilt was must have been a reflex of some sort.

@ Tears of Sephiroth = Sure! My combos are your combos. ^^;

angmar, fthrow is the best option in marth dittos unless your back is to the edge in which case you dthrow and edgeguard. if they DI away tech chase, if they dont free tip.

It was a ken combo...

it's nice, but then again the other marth messed up. Cool you still pulled that off though.

Ken and Azen use fthrow most of the time <_< I guess it's just a matter of preference. Uthrow can put them into combos, but fthrow puts you in a better position if they don't mess up. That's how I see it, in any case; I don't know what's going through their heads when they're playing. On topic, pretty standard sort of Marth combo. Doesn't make it any less deadly, though, most definitely not.

Ken and Azen use uthrow as well, just not as much as KDJ and M2K.

angmar, trust me, marth dittos being one of my most experienced matchups against high level players, fthrow is almost always better. sure you can uthrow, but then what? uair? usually doesnt combo more than 1 or 2 hits. fair? they will be able to fair you around the same time. even if you do fair them youre in the same spot as uair, only a few hits and your in the air so no fsmash. most of marth's combos are good cause you can end with fsmash and edgeguard, thats why tech chasing and fthrows are better than uthrows.

and i just watched a marth ditto between ken and m2k, and m2k only got one grab which was a fthrow and lead to fair and fsmash kill. ken got a bunch, 2 maybe 3 of them were uthrows and he naired.

Thanks for the comments again you guys! But yeah I do agree with Sveet about the f throw thing. It simply opens the doors to better combo opportunities. I mean, up throws are nice too, just to switch things up a bit. Plus up throws along with a few uairs (hit or miss) can make your foe cough up their second jump if you apply pressure correctly. But in general, f throw is almost always the better option. XD

but uthrow puts an opponent marth in a more disadvantageous position. he has much less options: dair, counter, air dodge, DI to fair position, or being tricky with the first dancing blade. and marth always wants to be under his opponent. fthrow I agree is good, but if I was fthrow'ed I would be more comfortable facing my opponent instead of being on top of them.

okay, let me put it this way, in a marth ditto you are always DIing away from the throw. if you are DIing away from fthrow and they uthrow, you will get hit once MAYBE. if its low % you will not get hit because you can fall with any move before utilt comes. the more % the farther away you go from your DI and harder it is for marth to combo you. the only time you should uthrow is when you are in the middle of FD and they are too high for anything to come from the fthrow. if you get to that point, you have already made mistakes and had chances to get the kill.

Alright. I guess I'll start fthrowing more.

Thanks Aiko! ^^

Yeah I didn't really do it all that much in that particular match. I was trying to apply a new flavor to my edge guarding. Nevertheless, Marth's bair is still an awesome edge guarding tactic. I spam it in other vids of mine as if it was going out of style. =)

Definitely f-throw , more than once i have linked several f-throws and took marth from one corner of FD to the other, then ken combo and hes dead , besides the window of opportunity after a f-throw is huge ( tech-chase , f-smash , f-tilt , u-tilt ,d-tilt ,d-smash , SH fair , dash attack and even a dancing blade combo) and after a u-throw what can u use? fair , uair and u-smash and theres always the possibility that he counters you with a dair or a fair , you give him oportunities to turn the combo against you.

If you carried someone across FD with fthrows, your opponents aren't very good, just saying.

Sad such players don't respect the ones that were here and powerful long before them.

And my marth does things far worse than such simple destructive tasks like you seem to imagine.
