Boozer's Pwnage Throws

[Pyr0]

Well, perhaps most of you have noticed, but Bowser's new Throws look incredibly awesome.

But I started thinking, what could they possibly do in real combat?

The answer is simple... Suicide Throws, yeah thats right, Kirby Style!


So what do you guys think? Is Bowser Suicide Throwing going to become a part of he's gameplay?

 

[Magic]

I'm pretty sure those aren't his throws as in grab-throws, but his throws that stem from the Koopa Klaw.

But yes, I noticed Bowser suiciding a couple times with those awesome suplexes.

 

[error_alt_delete]

suicide throws are something I would use in battle, but in bowser's case, only if I had high damage.

 

[Pyr0]

Of Course it would be a last F* you to the opponent, you KO him once, take some more damage, suicide throw and wham you got 2 of his stocks for the price of 1.

Seems like a good deal to me.

 

[Speedsk8er]

I like his Melee Klaw BThrow...

 

[Gimpyfish62]

the klaw was my favorite move in melee, and this new klaw at first i didn't like, but now i do. it activates WAY faster and has literally no lag whatsoever after it, its one of the quickest moves from start to finish in brawl when it misses from what i saw.

anyways i used the new klaw to SD kill my opponents a lot, its probably the most stylish thing possible to do. you have a lot of control over your character in the air, so its really easy, you can get a lot of distance too so you dont have to be that close to the edge!

I need to find a good video of these new throws. out of the old koopa claw ones I liked the back koopa claw throw, it was uber powerful.

 

[choknater]

guys... when melee came out i really wanted to main bowser but i gave up...


he's so freaking awesome in brawl. <333

SICk throws

Hopefully Bowser is just mid-tier so us Bowser diehards can still be unique, but win tournaments for once!

I kind of agree. Depending on how good an oponent's character is at KO'ing, once you hit the stamina depletion, (edges a recovery is no longer the shell sweep, and is the slow stand up and jab) it would be a more suitable time. There are certain characters from melee that I know if I can get them off the side with bowser, i can KO them with out a doubt because of his side game, but generally this is easier at low percentages. The shell-sweep recovery has nasty edge guarding abilities, and asainst spacies, sets up their weakest form of recovery, the fire fox/bird, which can be back aired or f tilted to oblivion. If the edge game is different, then maybe it will be something I do when I'm at a desperately percentage. Melee bowser had a sick edge game, and with hugging, it could be some of the same.

I'll take this moment to ask, is the edge game as good as Brawl? I know I've seen that the fortress hog is harder, maybe even not as useful, and the general floatiness percieved by many may affect the sweet spotting, as well as the new B-air feel, but I'm curious. Is there potential?

 

[FaceFaceMcFace]

One thing I'd like to ask is this; does the klaw only grab now? As in, does it still just scratch them if you space incorrectly?

I ask this because in a video I saw with a b-move spamming bowser, the person managed to land the klaw-grab crazy often.

they increased the range of koopa klaw. so a sesoned bowser user will most likley get crazy grabs. because they are used to a a shorter range. so this attack will be good for a longer range hit(and help against those sword users).

When you Bowsercide, who dies first? Bowser or his opponent? If the opponent always dies first, bowser can win battles by simply Bowserciding EVERY stock O_______O

If the opponent is smart that won't happen. (As experienced by Kirbyciding in tourneys)

The first time you will shock them, but its not that hard to do.
The second time, your good (or he sucks)
The third time your reaching Godly Levels
If you make it a fourth time either your opponent is brain-dead or you are a friggin' Jihad!

"i want to be unique im super special"

what a ***got lol

do not insult a person just because they want bowser to still be a unique and rarely used character. ya I also hope bowser stays off of top tier. top tiers arnt as exciting to fight because everyone uses them.

BUT Gimpyfsh said you can controll youself while your in the air. where as Kirby you had to be right at the edge to do it. Also you can break out of Kirby's mid throw whereas I haven't seen anyone break out of Bowser's throw.

 

[-Wolfy-]

I doubt it goes the same for bowser, but diddy's over b in the air is a grab like the claw, and he can throw downwards while in the air, and still up B after and recover. how sick would that be for bowser?

 

[Inferno_blaze]

Diddy's is uncontrollable and I can't see what use Bup After would be, you're already dead by the time it finishes XD.

 

[-Wolfy-]

Gimpy said that is the sweetest spike he's ever seen. Who knows, it could be possible since the game is floatier.

 

[Inferno_blaze]

I meant with bowser's side B, there's no way you'd make it back up with that XD

 

[-Wolfy-]

This is true. Save the bowsercides for your combo vid's folks.

On a side note, everyone sign up on Inferno Blaze's and my thread for Brawl Bowser mains.

 

[-Kagato-]

It still wasn't explained who dies first during a Bowser suicide attempt. If there's one stock left for both characters then it's possible to just suicide throw and still win in the end.

Also, I'm assuming his Claw no longer back-throws, right?

 

[Gimpyfish62]

we coudn't tell who dies first, i'd imagine his opponent because he holds them directly underneath him, but it was impossible to tell in timed matches.

anyways, there is only one throw on the klaw now, you cant bite them after you klaw either, it just throws right away

 

[-Kagato-]

I assumed the opponent would die first too. I just thought I'd make sure about it. I am kind of upset the back-throw was removed. It was his strongest knockback throw. I am also sort of sad that you can't bite opponents after grabbing them, but at least we got something new and useful in the end.

No bite? Doesn't that kinda suck?

How are bowser's standard throws? Any better? They're pretty meh in melee ('cept for the godly dthrow).

 

[Gimpyfish62]

bowsers throws in melee were all good *confusion*

klaw bthrow also wasn't the highest knockback throw in melee

 

[-Kagato-]

"His" strongest. Not "The" strongest.

 

[Inferno_blaze]

For a heavy character his forward and upthrows were hardly powerful, a lot of light characters had FAR better throws than him.

 

[error_alt_delete]

does bowser bite when he normal grabs now? or is still the head bang? I would like bowser to bite his opponent instead, it just looks like it hurts more.

 

[Pyr0]

I REALLY think thats a Demo thing, and will be fixed in retail version, I just can't imagine a special move doing essentially the same thing as a grab (our suicide usage idea isn't its main reason to exist)

 

[-Kagato-]

You can't imagine a special being used as a grab? Bowser does it in melee so why would it not make sense for Brawl?

 

[legendofme]

Command Grabs rock. Mix-up game ftw

 

[Zhilo]

That will keep shield grabbers on their toes, for sure. Also, Adding to the edgeguarding scene, lets not forget that Bowser now has the option to spike them with a footstool jump. Not infalible, but judging from the folks at E for All's experience, the timing to cancel it must be very odd because they couldn't manage it.

 

[Bowser Smasher]

I watched Gimpy and Aries play as Bowser, his throws are pretty improved. BUT, is it good to use them so often? In mid-air, Bowser seems to be very good, with quick slashing, but I'm still confused about the Klaw.

 

[FerretStyle]

I noticed a few seconds of slow-mo at the end of some brawl stock matches. Is that a feature or part of a special game mode or what?

I'm mostly wondering if both players die at close to the same time, if it's possible to get a draw.

 

[-Wolfy-]

I assume it is an effect to signify the end of a TIMED match. No draws as in timed mode, you would go to sudden death. it doesn't work that way in stock, i'm sure.

 

[Pyr0]

If you fall after the GAME message appears, it wont count to the final score.

There are many E4A videos where you can see this, I will try to find one and post the link.

 

[Inferno_blaze]

Slo mo is awesome though.

 

[MechaBoozer20XX]

Can you imagine the slow-mo F-smashes? Its like "Daaaaaaaaaaaaaa*n!"
