Ness's Back Throw

[Da Man]

So does Ness keep the crown he had since Melee of having the most powerful overall throw in Smash 4, or has anyone else finally gotten a equal or stronger throw than him? Haven't really seen much Ness gameplay myself so far but it be interesting to find out.

I've seen everyone else's back throws, and I think the only that comes close is Shulk with his Smash art active.

Talking about all throws overall including up, forward, and down aswell, not just the back one.

I've heard on a few other threads that his back throw is still a viable kill move. The only change is because of the mass damage reduction from the previous games it is now a kill move around 110% - 130%. I couldn't tell you much about his other throws besides the fact they're the same and most likely just do a little less than before.

I watched tournament videos and it appears to be his main kill move. Kills Little MAC around 120%

Well, that's little Mac. Does he kill with the side blast zone, or does he kill him cause mac's recovery is garbage?

Of all throws I've seen so far in playing it's the strongest throw kill move by far.

First match here vs. 200X I lost my first stock after a back throw. I mean obviously it kills me at 170% and a lot of other throws as well do but see that knockback, that's insane, even at 170% imo (for this game).

Still a killer, but you gotta be on the proper edge of the stage now. Won't as reliably kill in the middle of the stage now.

I cant remember how anymore. Pretty sure it was off the side. He may have grabbed him at the end of the stage though.
