Ganondorf's up throw?

[Mr. Ganondorf]

I find myself always always always using his down throw unless it's to get them off the ledge for an edgeguard. Lately though, I've started using up throw on the faster fallers if we're under a platform because them landing on the platform = easy tech chase. However, I was curious: are there any really good combos out of up throw at certain percentages on certain characters that I'm missing out on? I guess I just favor dthrow because it keeps them closer to me and makes for easier ftilt/fsmash/upsmash afterwards or, of course, tech chase.

U-throw to B-air if they DI backwards.

Also I only use U-Throw on fastfallers...almost all others can get out of anything from U-Throw.

ditto, to add, Down throw can land them on a platform too.

U throw is good to mix up your tech chasing options, what I like to do is a d throw then grab again fast to u throw, most spacies will get nervous and not di back after the first throw and will tech in place after the uthrow. punish. Against marth at 40% you can u throw to fair if they DI forward and on sheik also.

 

[DippnDots]

Yeah, the only way to beat sheik is to grab back.

But keep in mind, don't do nothing but u-throws.

I have a friend who plays CF. I usually uthrow to neutral A and tech chase. Try it out. =)

 

[UnChienAndalousa]

I usually u-throw fastfallers. It's easier to techchase for me. Usually they DI away to get away from Ganon's beastliness, and that leads to some f-air pwning.

 

[Rob_Gambino]

U-throw sheik at mid percentages.

 

[petoo0]

lol. linguini gots it down. up throw on sheiks and marth is good. usually not expected so you can land a good fair. if you want an example of that check out tipman match vs some randomn sheik at MLG. just youtube it.
also up throw to jab works on fast fallers. as well as up throw to wizards foot..but those are usually DI-able or tech-able.

 

[phish-it]

Yeah It's pretty much a way to mix up your game. D-throw usually has more immediate options, but mixing an up-throw can throw your opponent off guard.

Against Fastfallers it's real useful. At higher % you can do up-throw to b-air or f-smash if they DI behind. If they DI forward you can sometimes grab them again.

Linguini lets get some more matches at Smashtaclysm buddy.

 

[Linguini]

Yeah man, sounds cool.

Nice Ganondorf match on Saturday Mr. Ganondorf I learned a couple of new tricks.

 

[linkmastersword]

hahaha, a common trend done by fast fallers

you uthrow then down b, that will usually connect the first time you try and it always ALWAYS pisses them off, I don't know why. If you've landed this then you know they get ticked

the next time they'll remember to tech behind you, so u throw to reverse over b then do what you will with them

 

[Dakoshie Yukazami]

just up throw and turn around,jump and use hidden guntlents.....thats a strong move but if you dont do all that fast enof they will probobly get out of it
