Boomerang to help falling teammate

[Kentalish]

Has anyone tried throwing a boomerang under your teammate when (s)he is falling to save em? or would it be pointless to try?

I'm sure you could do it, but you would have to practice the hell out of it. It would be kinda embarrassing to kill your partner trying.

Arrow would usually be faster and better - negligible knockback = recovered 3rd jump. If your teammate is so low that he's going to have a hard time recovering, then going out to throw the boomerang is likely to put Link at risk, too, whereas he is also likely to be in range of an arrow at some point. Plus, on many stages, it might drag them underneath if they haven't practiced working with the boomerang.

more embarrassing would be to kill your partner and yourself. Ive seen it happen :\

I say stick to bombs. Make sure your partner doesnt decide to fastfall after their upB cuz your bomb wont catch up to them. It always worked fine for me.

I've saved a partner with all three, depends on the situation...
