I am a terrible person that enjoys to spike much more than I should... so I am curious, what exactly are Diddy's kill strategies?

The few I have seen are...

fsmash
dsmash
spiking ^^

I know Diddy has other damaging moves that combo very well, but I am looking for that one hit that just kills... are these Diddy's bread and butter for death, or are there more?

Diddy has his f-smash, d-smash, and his d-air to take out foes. He doesn't have a lot of killing moves however.

also i found out diddy can kill using a forward throw at high percentages
around 145%+ depending on the foe

also the Fthrow has GREAT knockback so you can just edge guard w/ fair

Ive killed so many people with a SHFair its ridiculous. Even his ftilt can knock them off screen at high %, but it may not kill them. Like someone else said, his fthrow has the most knockback of any of his throws, and its pretty good

Just use your banana's to get their Dmg high at about 150+ then use, any of diddy's airs, F-smash, D-smash, F-tilt and u-tilt as they all have good knock back. if it doesn;t kill them chase them of the edge with F-airs or B-airs .

It looks like all the kill moves have been covered, but I'm covering them again. =P

- Fsmash (Obvious.)
- Dsmash (Also obvious.)
- Fair (Surprising amount of K.O. power in this aerial.)
- Bair (Final Destination stage spike FTW. Also, a fair amount of knockback.)
- Uair (When you're higher up in the air, and the opponent has high damage.)
- Dair (Probably his best killing move.)
- Forward B (Two options here; either spike, or Diddycide. There's also a slim chance of a stage spike , but it's complicated.)
-Up B (Spiking properties, and stray barrels are very dangerous.)
- Fthrow (Strong. 'Nuff said.)

Diddy has a lot of killing moves. It just takes a lot of damage for some of these moves to kill. And some take prediction, and luck.

How? They all have so much knockback. No decent player gets chaingrabbed by that? Videos? Really I can't see how anyone could possibly chaingrab those moves.
Diddy's pretty fast. Starting at low percentages, if you toss them, you can dash over and grab them again, regardless of which direction you throw. My brother often gets chaingrabbed by me. Especially by Diddy's Dthrow.

I have no camera to record a video with.

if the person you're playing is good, you cant CG with diddy, even at low percents the knockback is so much they can just airdodge when you get back to them, or DI away and even us an aerial on you if they recover fast enough

I push people off to one side or to the ledge then either spike or just keep pushing.

wars not make one great
lmao diddy has no cg, that's so funny that people think he does. anyways, his f tilt can kill at high percents by the edge and his up tilt actually kills light characters: i killed a game and watch at 140 on smashville with an up tilt.

I don't understand how people can consider Diddy linking 2-3 grabs a chain grab since only a really bad player wouldn't know how to DI from it, unlike characters like Falco, and d3 whose grabs are literally inescapable.

Theres a chance that if someone hits your barrel it will get angry and kill your opponent for you.

Lol these are always the best KO's. My friends never expect it (Actually I never do either). I should use this method more in my game. Say a fox dash attacks me and he has high damage. Instead of dodging him it might be a great idea to charge up the rocket barrels, let the fox hit me, and then let the barrels do the rest to KO. Risky move though, for if I fails Diddy's very vulnerable to anything. Has anyone actually tried this purposely?
