Does anyone ever do the Feint Grenade Throw

[theONEjanitor]

It's not THAT useful, but if you're facing someone who A. has a reflector that likes to reflect your grenades or B. likes to spotdodge or try to catch your grenades...it might be sort of useful just to mix things up.

Basically, throw a grenade, immediately shielddrop the second one, pick it up and press b. he'll do the throwing animation but the grenade will just drop to your feet.

following this up with a mortar slide or dash attack might be a decent mindgame.

It's useful. Very situational, but useful nonetheless.

One time, I was on a platform and I did it and my opponent MK was appraoching me from under and he thought I threw the nade, I shielded, he blew up.

i do it all the time just for mindgames and for the lawls.

my friend thinks that i shouldnt be doing it but i still do.

I use it all the time as a way to cook nades. it's has mind games and cooking ability.

I think it mindgames your opponent into approaching. TwentyTwo and I have fought the same MK opponent and that fella loathes camping. lol
