IMO, a BIG IMO, I find this easier for me:
P-Bthrow -> N-Dthrow -> P-Grab and repeat. I find this easiest for 0-death infinites. What is easiest to you guys? :laugh:

Isn't it obvious? O.o F-throw.

Hardest is doing pivot b-throws to an b-throw or f-throw, whatever. >___>

I like fthrow>running pivotgrab with popo> fthrow only because I can't fthrow>fthrow very consistently yet. ^__^

I can Fthrow like 3-5 times in a row, then mess up. <__<
I find Dthrow easiest to chain aswell. ^_K

Fthrows on heavy characters, dthrows on lighter ones.
Yes. I always noticed I can do Fthrows much easier on big character/heavy chars. And somewhat easily on everyone else. But dthrows are easiest for any weight class IMO.

for me the easiest is

popo bthrow, nana running pivot grab on light/mid weight chars (especially MK who i practice on)

reason being

i am really bad on vision/timing oriented chain grabs such as fthrow, and i'm inconsistent

using my cg is pretty reliable since i can use muscle memory

Also, I noticed P-Fthrow -> N-Dthrow is pretty useful. And I use Bthrow to walking grab w/ nana on heavy-mid characters.

I have yet to try cg's while drunk.

p Bthrow, n Dthrow, p Bthrow, n Dthrow, etc. is really reliable. I only do the Fthrow cg when I plan on spiking :evil: Rarely I use the p Fthrow > n Dthrow, apparently this one's easier to do on certain chars, like Pit or something (confirmation?) :dizzy:

*Looks at first post*
I agree Z1g, but F-Dthrow easiest when moving across the stage. =P

i cant do alternating throws in a real match... :(
only sometimes in training mode...

its so tricky! errrrr
The most important thing when alternating is to be CONFIDENT !!
You must NOT think "Oh! I made it" when you... well, made it from 0% to about 100%

I believe most IC players agree with that..

Is there any Stationary CG availiable ?
The one in the first post is pretty much stationary if you do iy completely right (Nana grbabs from Popos BThrow right behind him). Or, you might move a little if Nana grabs and slides.

I find alternating F-throws to be the easiest for me. I've been practicing with them a while, and I can get at least a couple of these in semi-consistently (I love using these to set up a F-throw to Nana F-air spike KO). I have trouble with B-throws (trying to fix that), and I don't use D-throws that much (usually just Popo-only chains), although I can see them being useful to prevent the enemy from DI'ing away.

ok so i got the P Bthrow to N grab... but i cant do the N Dthrow to P grab... do i have to wait for the opponent to hit the ground before i try grabbing again?

Yeah, depending on weight, a character "sticks" to ground, then pops up. Heavies stick longer, lighties are insta re-grab. Learn tha timings and it becomes much easier. :)

I find just the alternating down throw chain to be the easiest, and the easiest to spike at the end, but it gets a lot harder with higher percentages
Ah...yeah. Gotta love the D-throw chain. You'll get the others down eventually, just gotta take the time to sit down and be willing to push Z until your index fingers hurt. :p

Muscle memory is such a great thing. You'll be able to CG in real matches for those of you who can't in no time. :D

For my favorite alternating throw?

Popo back throw to Nana down throw OR Popo back throw to Nana F-throw to popo regrab if I feel like playing it a bit more safe.

B-throw to f-throw is hard to pull off on general IMO. F-throw is the easiest.

Ooh! More damage given, noice. ^__-
I don't give damage, I give death :3

Record CG (using my above method) is up to 430~% vs Tink and Kirby >.> (still going for that 999% **** it D: so hard....)


Thats my favorite, although theres far more practical ones...

(Bthrow to Bthrow to Bthrow to Bthrow...repeat.... D: which I still fail at..(I've done bthrow to bthrow only twice :3 and not in a row..)

Reason why thats more practical: Easier to do on ledges that are small :3
