A few days ago I was playing C.Awesum's snake with my dedede. He did a DACUS and I grabbed him out of it, but before I did the missile from the the DACUS was launched. I then accidently did a down throw which I expected to be ended by the missile but instead as it came down it hit snake as I held him in the air(very beginning of down throw). I took no damage or knockback from this and was able to continue the chain grab. Can someone please explain this?

air(very beginning of down throw).
it might be 1. your port prority, or 2.SA[super armor] frames from grabbing him and doing the throw. The beginning part of the grab to throw animation if something like an ftilt, or a smash attack hits you and you grab them out of it, you take damage but receive no knock back, and you have them in a grab. Its pretty situational, but awesome if you get it right

The SA frames thing, applies to all characters in this situation iirc. But its REALLY situational though

but this happened after I had grabbed him and was in the beginning frames of the downthrow when the opponent is above dedede's head

yea that one

wait how was he above your head O_o when you grab snake out of a dacus he should be directly infront of DDD in a crouched position. When DDD dthrows there is no part of the animation where in the opponent getting throwed is above DDDs head.


also Q&A section next time please, no need to make new threads

ok sry about not using the Q&A thread but I swear the snake was above dedede's head, wait actually now that I think about it could of bein an up throw but that doesn't explain how I was able to continue the chain grab
