Down Throw + Down Tilt

[Havasion]

I noticed that Falco can KO opponents fairly easily using the down tilt around percentages greater than 100.

I was just curious as to why this combo isn't being utilized as much with pro players since I feel it would be pretty useful when trying to get a KO.

Is it because people can easily roll out of the D. Throw?
Is their too much lag time between the moves?

Just a little observation.

Down throw doesn't actually combo into anything, you can tech it everytime. The only thing down throw can really be used for is stage control and/or tech chasing with it. Now, if they don't expect it or don't know how to deal with it, you can d-tilt them, but this isn't going to happen outside of low level play

Unless you have REALLY REALLY CHEAp mindgames

They just tech it everytime, unless you can read the mixup.

Alright, thanks guys. That makes more sense.

I guess this is just a silly stunt I'll pull with my friends.

you can down throw-->down tilt nana in the ice climbers matchup. Since nana doesn't tech, down throw --> down tilt is a combo.

If popo tries to hit you, the lasers will intterupt him. If popo shields the lasers from the down throw, usually he will be pushed out of range. so when you down tilt nana, it can hit confirm nana and be used to zone/poke popo while remaining relatively safe.

against fox specifically, theres some sorts of mixups you can do at various percents with your shine and regrab/tilt and their shine and di away. you are actionable 6 frames before the fox

Because of DI and and Tech, D-Throw to D-Tilt is not something you should resort to every time you get a grab because it is super easy to punish if messed up. That being said though a combo that I think should be used more in pro play that is really useful is laser to D-Tilt when your opponent is at high percent. D-Tilt is one of Falco's most underrated moves and if used correctly you can be really successful.
