Funky B-Throw Glitch

[IC3R]

I was browsing around youtube and found this:

I'm guessing this is supposed ot be a Fox AT video, but Ike did something weird during the fight...

At 1:28-1:30, the CPU B-throws Fox during his F-Smash, causing them both to slide off the stage.



Thoughts?

It looks like his throw got the movement of Fox's forward-smash then the grab ended when they hit the air push fox downward. It does look useful if it can be duplicated.

When you hit a shield characters will be pushed backwards, Fox did this to Ike, then the Ike shieldgrabbed him and then used his backthrow while there was still a bit of the sliding animation left, this triggered the air release caused by changing stages much like you would have on a landing Delfino platform or a changing Castle Siege or something.

Don't think it'll be easy to duplicate and certainly not useful.

There has been cases where the hitstun is so low that you're able to grab while getting hit. However I haven't seen a case like this before. The above post seems to be correct though. Fox's F-Smash movement got transferred over to the grab, which caused a momentum push to both of them. The throw wasn't completed though cause they got pushed off the stage, which is why Fox actually fell instead of being pushed downward.

It's a glitch, but nothing you can do with it.

^ What they said, and besides, I don't think it's as practical as it is useful.
