Correct me if I'm wrong, I only have access to the demo and can't really science this very well.

But it seems to me that armor while grabbing might be gone, but instead, I seem to be having invincibility frames while throwing. For instance, using Megaman against Villager, if he pops a Gyroid and I grab him, if I throw right as it's starting to move, it misses me, but if I throw before or after that, I get hit. Anyone else notice this or anything similar? (Or has it already been discussed elsewhere? I couldn't find it if it was)

I've noticed this as well, particularly against pikachu and its one-frame thunder summon. If I grab pikachu after he starts thunder and don't throw, I will take damage. If i throw him right away, I often don't take any damage due to invincibility frames during the throw (as mega-man). I haven't tested this with other characters yet though.
