I personally would go throw or bat, although i 99% do a jacket. I think though i should try to trick my opponent out cause my friend, when he sees i have a YYG, he tries to intercept me. I should just start running to the edge, rpetending like im about to thunderjacket, and right at the last minute, turn around and grab. One back throw should take him out.

my two favorite things to do with the yyg is

1) run to an edge (whichever one is applicable), turn around, grab and backthrow.
I mean, ness has the best throw in the game (to my knowledge), and although it's kinda obvious to a ness player what's going on if he hits you with a yoyo and breaks for edge of the stage, it isnt for other people (so far)

2) the bat.
Just love rockin people with a bat from like, 2390482390482390 feet out.

3) dropkick (if im comin back)
I love this one. If i get cut off while going for the edge, and get knocked off, ill try to catch the deathline while falling and do a drop kick (as long as my opponent is standing on the ledge edgeguarding, and not edgehogging)

If they're edgehogging, i just abort the mission and go back to business as usual.

Guys, if you haven't noticed, using the bat is a bad idea. Why? The Death.ine uses the closest and earliest hitbox to Ness. Now where does the bat sourspot? Close to Ness. Sourspot bat=poor use of the deathline.

I use bair, bthrow, and if my opponent knows NOTHING about the YYG, I jump offstage and PKT2 back on hitting them with the strongest move you can use with the deathline.

I have also been utilizing the "Chain yo-yo" I recently discoved. What is it? Hitting with the first part of the yo-yo when a trapbox is out to pop up the enemy and set a new trapbox again (no jacket required). You CANNOT hit them with the deathline.

so can you hit someone with a PKT2 deathline, then equpi a TJ, or does YYG dissapear before that?

If you equip a jacket and hit someone with the deathline at the same time, the jacket will be there, but it wont be able to hit the person yolu hit with the deathline.
